OK, quick question - how many people bought a Powerball ticket today? How many thing the Twins should buy one, to help solve their payroll issues?

 

I don't get it... When the jackpot gets up over 500 million... People go nuts and wait in line and the Powerball has record sales...

 

Is this some sort of statistical statement that the majority of Americans feel that a measly jackpot of 10 million isn't worth the effort.

You can lead a Worley to a mound... but you can't make him throw strikes

 

I would went with... You can lead a Vanimal to a mound. But yours was still good.

OK, is he really pitching that badly? Yes, high pitch count, and 2 walks, but only two hits, and the only run against was as much on Dozier as Worley.

atta boy Plouffe! The young man eats his pork and beans...

Way to bust the no-no Plouffie!

At the very least Hicks... Move Plouffe Over.

on Buchholz's 24th pitch... coincidence? I think not

Worley has a 7 something ERA because he is getting crushed and people are worried about the number of pitches he is throwing? I think a better goal is don't get crushed. When he can consistently make it to the 5th without being down big then let's worry about how many pitches he is throwing.

No he isn't, but he is struggling to finish guys off.

Conclusion to a really bad AB in 3,2,1 ...wait, what? He did get the runner over.. Ell Ile bee!

And today, at least so far, he's done that.

Stunned, I am.

A laser homerun.

Sweet mother of pedro!!!

Florimon... Yeah... You all love him now

Damn! WTG Florimon!

I've always used Florimon in sentences with Cabrera... rbi kings, the pair.

Buxton absolutely mauled that pitch last night

Bucholz did not Fear the Florimon. He will know better next time.

Buxton absolutely mauled that pitch last night

 

yeah... I saw that... Sano and Buxton are starting to make impatient.

For selfish reasons, I hope they wait to promote until MiLB All-Star. I am going to CR the weekend before.

Buxton up NOW!!1!!1!1 just want to beat the rush

True or false, Parmelee will hit above .270 for his career.

They need to play the theme from The Natural next time Florimon comes up. For Buxton, all the time.

Haha, fair enough. I understand your sentiments. I think they'll handle him well either way

Anybody else think Morneau needs to shave that thing?

If we played the shift on Ortiz, like, I don't know, 28 major league teams do, that's a routine out.

I didn't like that movie - they changed the ending from the book.

No way! I absolutely love it. Would it look better on someone with darker hair? Yeah, probably. Still, I appreciate few things more than a man's mustache

This has been said before, but I think the hand wringing over Parmelee's defense has proven to be unwarranted.
