March 29, 20188 yr Happy day everyone!Shameless plug: there are a half dozen or so April game threads still in need of a volunteer...you know what to do!It's not a shameless plug ... it's a plug of necessity! That sounded weird. Anyway ... here are the available dates left for April. Get your game thread on! 4/8 Sea4/13 CWS4/15 CWS4/18 CLE at Puerto Rico4/25 @ NYY (And a few quick how tos and what nots found here. Just PM Chief and Carole.)
March 29, 20188 yr It feels like the first day of school on this thread... What did everyone do over winter vacation?Sir, you wound me. True baseball fans spend winter waiting for not baseball season to end and baseball season to start!
March 29, 20188 yr I consider him the Brad Radke of Opening Day (I should capitalize Opening Day, right? Sort of like Christmas and Thanksgiving - All are holidays.). Now we just wait until game 2 for Johan Santana. J/K good job! Agree - the first paragraph was pretty weak, but the results were fantastic the rest of the way
March 29, 20188 yr First there is zero doubt that River is the Ace of the TD staff! Second why is there so much effort put into speeding up the game and nothing about speeding up the off season? Third please no complaining about balls and strike calls, at least during the opener.
March 29, 20188 yr Second why is there so much effort put into speeding up the game and nothing about speeding up the off season?Baseball IMO does it right compared to the winter sports. It gives us time to actually miss the sport. With basketball and hockey they have like 2 weeks off then it's next season already.
March 29, 20188 yr I thought of commenting on the bunting, but out of a profound respect for the elderly who live in the Western time zone, and can't get out of bed that early, I thought I would leave that ripe fruit for him! . Who are you talking about, there are several options...
March 29, 20188 yr Is it funny that I'm more excited about Opening Day than Christmas? I started toe tapping and couldn't sit still last night and it hasn't stopped yet. Seriously... I think I may be more excited about this than my kid's birthdays (Ok, I'm kidding about that one a little bit ). Wow, I'm really a terrible human being The only reason Christmas is better is because my kids are in town....otherwise, this day is much better.
March 29, 20188 yr I went to college just outside of Baltimore. This morning, my alumni association put out a post on social media saying they still had Opening Day tickets for sale. One small problem. I live in Orlando. Very eager to see this first week and how the new additions blend in and how much the returning players have improved.
March 29, 20188 yr Imma see if I can run out of likes b4 first pitch. //trynna modernize my vocabulary.
March 29, 20188 yr BTW, I stopped calling my bathroom the "John." I'm calling it the "Jim." I've already been to the Jim twice this morning. #healthylifestyle2018
March 29, 20188 yr Imma see if I can run out of likes b4 first pitch. //trynna modernize my vocabulary.I believe the word is 'Finna' instead of 'Imma' if you're trying to be hip, now, with it, and wow.
March 29, 20188 yr I believe the word is 'Finna' instead of 'Imma' if you're trying to be hip, now, with it, and wow.y Doe?
March 29, 20188 yr What do you call a Frenchman wearing cheap sandals? Au Pair? Actually I have no idea, but I do now remember why I enjoyed the off season as much as I did! .
March 29, 20188 yr Au Pair? Actually I have no idea, but I do now remember why I enjoyed the off season as much as I did! .No. And keep it up, Platoon. First ban of the new season will feel SO, SO GOOD.
March 29, 20188 yr Is this real? Perhaps it's the Dozier effect...It's posted on mlb.com, so I assume that it is.
March 29, 20188 yr It was reported that Russian Double Agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter may have been victims of door poisoning. Russia has come a long way since Rasputin; they have been practicing the poisoning of Doors technique since 1969. It wasn’t fatal back then but it did produce a severe lack in judgement which resulted in “The Soft Parade”. I strongly suspect that RB has the only Doors reference related to an MLB team on opening day in 2018. Truth be told, the worst Doors album is still a cut above what passes for most rock music today. And the poet and "Runnin' Blue Shaman", Jim Morrison gives us plenty of fodder to work with vis a vis the Twins. I mean, really, 'Cmon, cmon now', it wouldn't just "Touch Me" or make me "Wishful, Sinful" or a "Wild Child" if I were to "Tell All The People" that it's time to "Do It" and and join the "Easy Ride" on the 2018 MN Twins "Soft Parade" on Opening Day and all the way to the playoffs, amIright?
March 29, 20188 yr Is this real? Perhaps it's the Dozier effect... It's posted on mlb.com, so I assume that it is.It's also posted on TD so it's double real ...
March 29, 20188 yr What is Molly thinking? That's the strangest lineup I ever saw! Omg! Why isn't he pinch hitting here? Come on, man, this is Baseball 101!Holy moley, I'm lovin' me some Odor-Easy! What a great pickup!Chicken! Chicken! Chicken Dinnah!!!! Woo hoooo!!!!! __________ must have compromising pics of molitor.
March 29, 20188 yr Let's Go Twins!!! Buxton is going to have a big day in the field and at the plate!
March 29, 20188 yr Hold yer hats, fellow baseball fans. First pitch of the baseball season just went over the fence. Watching the Cubs v Marlins. Good way to test MLB TV.
