  • Excellent intro, Ma'am, err, Miss!   I still can't believe how long the Twins were stuck on 200 home runs. What was it, two innings or some such?    

  • Yeah, and how long have they been stuck at 201 now? Over 12 hours, at a minimum? Maybe longer. Something needs to be done.

  • Second base. We've been over this.

 

So I tune it to find out Dish no longer is showing Fox Sports North. And radios don't work up here on the north shore.

 

Yeah... You can't watch the game but you can choose a side in the epic battle of broadcast rights. 

Lewin Diaz to the Marlins

Soft tossing Romo? For relief? Not a fan of that. At all. Falvey is out doing himself. Inciting ferocious fear in the late innings.

Looks like it's Romo for Lewin Diaz and another pitching prospect. I'm not that excited for Romo, and I hope they will use him in the 6th/7th inning rather than the 8th/9th. 

Actually it’s the exact opposite. Teams are not liable at all. But carry on.

from yahoo sports, the white Sox settled with a fan who sued them claiming he was injured while going after a T-shirt that was shot into the crowd. Good lawyers do extract money from teams

At least on that 6th pitch, Schoop finally swung at a strike (barely)

Lewin Diaz to the Marlins

Good luck to Lewin Diaz!

Sergio Romo = Ryne Harper with more wear and tear

 

Falvine once again trying to jump the market....while everyone else targets 100mph power relievers the Wonder Twins corner the market on soft tossing RH "Hope I Fool 'Em" relievers

Tony ?  hope its not sergio

Bad news: It’s the Sergio one.

 

Good news: it’s the 2012 version of Sergio Romo!

I sure hope this isnt the only move that is made

OK. This is officially getting old here. No offense. 91 mph heat.

 

Cleveland up 8-0. Time to focus and put these games away early!!!!

Jon Morosi is reporting that the Twins are receiving a milb pitcher in the deal, not sending one.

That’s different. That’s a promotional gimmick. You were talking about fouls balls.

Baseball is a crazy game.

 

The numbers say the Twins should own Nova yet, Nova, so far, is owning the Twins.

I anticipated this response. When I was about 10, we were lighting off fireworks in our back yard. One was almost a dud and lit some dry grass on fire. I immediately tried to run and get water. My mother grabbed both my shoulders and screamed, "OH MY GOD!" as I tried to tear away from her. She eventually ran over my 13 year old brother in the house who came out and stomped it out in flip-flops, then continued playing StarCraft. If my mother had taken me to a game when I was, say, 8 years old and a ball came screaming at my face, she would have been physically and mentally unequipped to do anything to stop it, and even if it was her /responsibility/, I would have still eaten one to the temple.

im sorry but if you’re gonna take a baby to a ballgame and sit in the infield lower deck you have to be aware of what could happen, and if you’re not sure if you could protect that child then you shouldn’t even be there

We get the pitching prospect. Romo's salary this year is $2.5 million!

 

I sure hope this isnt the only move that is made

I don't think they've left 3 40 man spots open just for Romo. I highly doubt they casted a wide net on so many targets to come away with a single reliever.

Romo = the next Pressly? I thought that was the goal.

its not a big stretch, settling is preferable to court a lot of times, It happens all the time

I do agree with you here. Too many people sitting up close with young kids and not paying attention.

We need some offense

Maybe the marketing department could come up with a promotional campaign around the "Possibility of Death".

 

It Might sell some seats.  :)

 

 

 

 

People will always try to sue. Skydiving waivers at drop zones use in your face bold and larger fonts to make sure one knows it is their choice and risk, and people still litigate (rarely win, but sometimes do, even though they signed and initial their right to do so away).

Twin's Trade Bunker conversation:

 

Derek: Hey Thad-O, did you see that wild game the other night?

 

Thad: You mean our epic battle with the Yankers?

 

Derek: No, no, no...I couldn't sleep the other night and tuned in to the Angels and Orioles

 

Thad: Why are you watching that game...thought we decided we were shooting higher than Givens?

 

Derek: I still think there's legs on our Lewis and Kirillof for Trout...but that's not what got me fired up. Tom Wilhelmsen came on to pitch the last inning for the O's and he got 3 outs throwing 58mph

 

Thad: You mean Stevie Wilkerson? You do know he's not a pitcher right?

 

Derek: Oh...anywho we can't get power relievers so let's go the other direction

 

Thad: Soft tossers? Can't break the I-94 speed limit? BRILLIANT

 

Derek: I know right? Let's start with Sergio Romo

Nova smarter than our pitchers. He doesn't throw a strike on an 0-2 count.

Only 10 outs left. WAKE UP OFFENSE!!!
