That stat on Buxton is losing its effect at least on offense. .1 additional runs a game is nothing.  Apparently we are just as good on offense with him as we are without him. His difference making is in the field. Captain Obvious, out. 

How did Captain Obvious attain that rank?

I was sad to see him go, but can't complain about what we got, nor argue that he should have played over Mauer.

That was during the period where I also rooted for the Giants. After the year he played for them, they would have paid to get rid of him! "Cancer in the clubhouse" was one comment.

Tried to double-post on me. Sorry!

Isn't it obvious?

Isn't everything is outside in Target Field?

 

Except them fancy leisure boxes, i guess...

I guess not.

 

Is (s)he a ship's captain?

 

Like Ahab?

It appears yesterdays offense is not infectious.

Every time I think about AJ, it reminds me of Liriano and Nathan, and I just smile. ?

No love for Boof?

Not to be pessimistic, but when was the last time the Twins scored 6 or more runs two games in a row that they won.

So it wouldn't be worth reacting to... (i did say something about liking Ahab after all)

 

But i watched the video and didn't see a ship, so no.

 

The one that was a Captain, obsessed with a whale what was white.

Right ... so let's make sure none of us are doing the prattling  

This game feels like major-league pitching against minor-league hitting.

it is so weird that the delete option was taken away from us posters a while back, It gives us a chance to let us retract something.... moderate ourselves. Makes no sense to me to not have that option. Sometimes we can be emotional, and correct ourselves before someone else does. Seems that is what we should do.
