"The size of those cobs is a-maize-ing!" was Chief's corny joke.

You know what it takes to grow great corn?

    I have a few chickens myself. Real ones. They run on pasture, don't get any hormones or antibiotics in their diet and are like Miller Lite; taste great!   Also have about 6 acres of woods. I was worki

    No sort of about it.   Has all the earmarks of carefully constructed Chiefish joke. Now all i gotta do is look up pullet and adze to get it...

  • Tonight is exactly why Santana needs to be a Twin in '18.     Starts out the night without his best stuff, uses up a lot of pitches early, gives up a couple runs and a cheap homer, then finishes 6 inn

 

Brian having a night to forget

Can this site add a button that says "agree with this" when one doesn't like what one agrees with?

It's good to see Santana rebounding after a poor first two innings. Looks like he can get through at least 6 innings so far.

Yeah, I wanted to see the replay of the Buxton home run too.

It's already on the Twins web site.

I think it's close to time to flip Buxton and Dozier in the batting order.

FWIW, Chris Gimenez is about 60 innings shy of his MLB career high. That's only 7 more starts.

 

Jason Castro needs about 250 to establish a career high. That likely won't happen. He is about 170 innings away from his second highest total. That he should get easily.

 

I guess the relevance is that both of these guys are playing considerably more than they are used to. So, it really isn't surprising that their offense has been non-existent the last month or so. Not that it was substantial before that. Neither has homered in two months.

Looks like you'll have to tell us.

I'd leave Buxton right where he's thriving.

I concur.

What the F was that? Come on that's pathetic

Did Gene Glynn wave Sano around or did Sano blow through a stop sign? Glynn should be fired if he sent Sano.

What, never?

 

(Give three cheers and one cheer more...)

Gilbert & Sullivan, George Bernard Shaw, and Tom Swifties, all in one thread.

Glynn must have thought Buxton was running?

 

That wasn't the greatest effort, but Sano had no chance IMO.

I guess Sano is not quite as fast as Buxton.

OK, what happened at third base to result in something that bad? Glynn really waved Sano home?

Interesting baserunning play there.

 

On the bright side, Roasario is turning into a hitting machine.

This kid on the tv stinks

Wow. Glynn was waving him around. You gotta be kidding me.

According to the Dbacks b'cast, Glynn waived him home.

Someone also said "unbecoming."

 

That's gotta count for something.

I think Sano was taken by surprise that Glynn was waving him. And with good reason.

Yeah, they just showed the replay. He was waving him around and Sano slowed down probably because he was thinking, "what the **** is he doing waving me around?" Buxton would've been out at the plate if he crossed third at the same time as Sano did. There is 0 excuse for sending anyone in that situation, let alone Sano.

All these folks getting kidneys. How are the little youngsters supposed to walk??
