Everyone knows what a rumba is.

 

It's what occurs when there's a serious disagreement between the Sharks and the Jets.

A rumba is that mechanical thingie that sweeps the floor while I sit and enjoy a rum.

My kids got me one of these for Christmas, but judging from this thread, it's a wonder they ever have any in stock

Bump.

 

This is actually a serious question someone asked me recently, and i didn't know of one.

 

For better context, if i didn't know what a rumba was, this could tell me.

This isn’t what you’re looking for, but when I googled I found this. This would be kinda fun to look through:

(It’s not shoes — I promise!)

Who is this Trevor McGill guy? Maybe see him today? He can get 3ks and they'll send him back down. 

 

He's the guy we brought up instead of keeping Smelter on the roster.

It's splitting hairs, but kind of surprised we didn't see Megill in the bottom of the 9th. He is (hypothetically) your worst reliever and there won't be a better spot to ease him into his first MLB appearance of the year.

While what Dick just said about pitchers not being pushed to their max in the their 1st start back is true, Ober threw 72 pitches at STP last weekend. I would imagine he's given around 80 pitches, which isn't much less than the Twins usually let him throw.

Twins win!

Joe Ryan didn't get a ton of swings and misses, but he pounded the strike zone against a fairly powerless lineup. The lineup made the Royals pay for walking so many leadoff hitters, and the defense was clean once again. The bullpen was mainly clean besides Thielbar giving up a solo shot (but getting a much bigger out earlier), and the lineup added on against bad relievers. Always good to have the series won with another game remaining.

Until tomorrow,

Enjoy your chicken!

Great game tonight  , 

Hits and runs are coming without the assist of homeruns  ....  

Looks like the players are adjusting to the dead ball and are situational  hitting  the past 3 games 

Great exciting baseball

I like those odds...

 

(and should someone ask what odds, i will point to my comment as odd. (and this one, should they comment on the plurality...))

Indeed it was win #5. Great game from Arraez getting on base 4 times and a lot of clutch 2 out hitting. Even saw a sac bunt!

Arraez slapping hits to the opposite field is a thing of beauty

His batting eye on those 2 walks and heads up base running turned the game tonight. The Royals had cut it to 4-2 when Arraez scored on that wild pitch and the game ended then. It completely let the air out of the Royals rally and quieted their fans. It was a thing of beauty ??
