I've dived for beers before.  Doesn't hurt so much.

I’ve been to dive bars, hurts too

This dude has no command whatsoever 

Hearing a lot of boo birds on the radio.

The only birds I’m hearing happen to be Toronto fans, and they’re cheering

In the movie 'Field of Dreams', the ghosts would ask “Is this Heaven?" Costner would reply “No… it’s Iowa.” As I drove through Iowa, I thought about that line. If ghosts can’t tell the difference, I may have to manage my expectations for when my time comes

This is an easy one. A ghost is simply the spirit of a deceased person who has not found rest. As in heavenly rest. The ghosts are asking if it’s heaven because they have no idea what heaven is like, having never been there.

 

It’s probably not what Molitor means, but maybe if they are any good.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

63 pitches....might need Hughes tonight....

Why didn't we resign Bartolo instead!!??

Lynn has gotta learn you can only play with fire for so long before you get burnt

I mean, when you throw 90% fastballs, you're probably going to want to get ahead early and have good command

I can’t even blame them for not signing him. The guy defies logic and seemed to be wearing out towards the end of last year

Iowa>Minnesota

 

At least in terms of college athletics :)

Gopher Football National Titles—7

 

Hawkeye Football National Titles—1

 

You were saying?

They didn't sound disappointed enough, then. Whether they believed it was heaven or not, it was downtown Iowa they were looking at.

Because he ran out of gas last year and after a few good starts, he fell apart. Unless you could see the future where Colon came roaring out of the gate and Lynn was abysmal, then there wasn't any reason to.

it was mostly a joke, but after this first month I'm half serious

Uh....when was that last title, exactly? And, I'm a gopher.....

It does seem to me though that Lynn is not in ideal physical shape.

Dozier’s OBP down to .333, and average to .255. His BABIP is not too much out of line for his career norms.

 

Remind me again why he’s at the top of the lineup.

Before face masks

Sid was only 74 on the last one!

Because the manager of the year won't move him....

1960, two years after Iowa’s only title.

 

On another note, how much fun must it have been to be a Minnesota sports fan in 1960? A natty, and two brand spanking new franchises.

Seem to be hitting the ball hard. We will produce eventually

Cuz he told Molitor that's where he wants to hit!

I like to think that the ghosts actually thought it was hell (for obvious reasons), but asked the other way, like when someone seriously hurts them self and you immediately ask if they’re ok instead of if they’re hurt.

 

I sent an email about this to an umpire friend. I'll see if he responds while the game thread is still active.

The rule book says fair territory is from the baselines perpendicular upwards. If the ball is rolling and just nicks the base is it fair even if the ball was in contact with the ground foul?
