If only the Twins were capable of that level of strategic thinking...

 

Maybe that was Terry Ryan's strategy with trading Morneau. He targeted Pittsburgh, so he first called every other team and offered Morneau in exchange for their #1 and #2 prospect. They each slapped his face, or at least hung up the phone real loud. Then he called Pittsburgh and asked for two 27-year-olds, and everybody else thinks these were their two best prospects. Profit!

The first 2 died, probably as a result of always being pregnant, and the final wife was about 13 years old when he married her.

 

Chief is familiar with those Biblical days; can he corroborate your story?

...a Johnny Appleseed of sorts.

Why, I do believe, it's Rally Avatar time.

the final wife was about 13 years old when he married her.

 

So many good places to take this one.

 

Am I afraid to go the distance?

 

Do I have some semblance of class left in the dark abyss that is my soul?

 

If I pull the trigger, will it screw up my karma or land me in jail.

 

(Sigh) I'm gonna have to pass on this one.

The box score says that C. Lo is pitching.

 

 

Probably the first time he would have seen this.

Thanks, Bark. She was my great-grandmother.

I guess my intuition payed off this time.

When I swim at night there is a star that is almost directly above me. I don't know the real name, so I call it Olivia because it is so far away yet so bright that I can always see it.

InCREDibly far away and out of reach. Keep reminding yourself of that.

Yeah, and it was only a one-in-three shot so not an automatic. Good call.

From all accounts she was an amazing woman and she lived to around age 90 despite having 9 or 10 children.

So you'll have to swim really really fast.

The Astros announcers are actually not bad.

Colabello grand slam!!! Wow.

God Bless the United States of Olivia!!!

OK, we knew this already, but Colabello can really hit AAA pitching, even at the ML level!

 

...and he picked a darn good spot, too.

Olivia!!!

"How ya like me now?"

God Bless the United States of Olivia!!!

 

And of course now, Everyday Carnac, the Closer Avatar.

I've been a Colabello doubter since he came up. In fact, I'm still a doubter. But I'd love for him to spend a full month proving me absolutely, totally wrong.

It looks like there are about 25 fans remaining at the ballpark.

Thank you Mr. Altuve. I am praying for this game to end.

Note to Astros- down four in the ninth, try not to get thrown out stretching a single into a double.

 

Granted, it was a monster shot with a great bounce back to Mastro, but still.

It's your life, live it beautifully Cola Bello

I would suggest that we not send that note until the series is over.

I wish that the Astros could move to the Central and the Royals could move to the West.
