Twins Awkwardly Add Max Kepler Back to Group Chats

Please don't waste our time with these.

It's all a bunch of schadenfreude to me😕😬😉

Funny stuff. Working the "confusion" in - brilliant. The horror of Grimm's Fairy Tales. Love it. 

Pay no attention to the nay-sayer. Keep 'em coming. 

I remember the "confusion"....   https://www.yahoo.com/video/twins-outfielder-max-kepler-apologizes-for-controversial-photo-amid-george-floyd-protests-230841299.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAAqFFyRZ9ZV3VxHOyE9emsg3SVejNk3mRVJzoEwJzxoY2muvLYOG5hNhO1y8QcrTiZeu8Auo8sZS2AWxI2WfSHiLfqMKRuhHD7SA1FeNytu0N2Fi1ZmCMC8G4nCtC_tsijnEgd-gUgK0elPrrpSchaQduzPY2zNd5oz-PgFc8Cns

I mean, you could just, not read it

Thats one of the most confusing articles I have read.  Maybe I understand a little more now why Kepler is always a trade target---he seems to be outside the circle.  Ballplayers are very cliquey, so if this is reflective of his relationship with guys on the team and they cut him out so quickly, it shows he's not a part of things--even when he is there.  

Georgia above...... is why I say....please don't waste our time......  LOL!

How can you consider removing a German from the team - 38.6 % of Minnesotans are German - he is there for the state, if only we could add Irish, Swedish and Norwegians to the team.  Of course in a chat the problem could be language - hard to get that accent to work with voice recognition.  

Most important we now have Gallo to coach Kepler on how to stay on the chat and the team roster as reputed great fielders who can't figure out that a base hit is positive.  

Mein Gott, was ist ein Chat?

I look forward to wasting my time with Stu's articles.

Well, I see all of you wasted NO TIME AT ALL learning how to hammer that "disagree" reaction.

I wanted to "like" this, but I had to use the "disagree", on principle.

“I just read some Grimm’s Fairy Tales to acquaint myself with his culture,” said Larnach. “These stories are messed up. The Godfather Death ruins harvests and the Three Nymphs of the Black Forest steal your soul and your maiden fair. I don’t know what a maiden fair even is. Maybe I should just buy him a car?”

I wonder if he gets angry or confused when he sees the Disney movies or if kept waiting for the birds to come blind the stepsisters in Cinderella.  

With the change in the Shift rule Kep will add 30-40 points to his average. Twins should keep him. Larnach should be the one on the way out. League has figured out he can't hit a breaking ball. Just like Sano. Plus his range is 3 feet to his left and 3 feet to his right and has NO CLUE on how to play the wall. Send him on his way!

It is important to keep your satires properly inflated, especially in cold weather.

I still remember the article they put out on Buxton when he was the minors.  Man that one had me in stiches and even though satire it seemed real enough and the comments were wild on that one.

I can't remember what it said but something about coaches wanting Buxton to stop at second instead of taking third on doubles because it wasn't fair to the other team or some such thing.  That had to be one of his best all time.

“I sort of moved my stuff into his locker at Target Field ... I just read some Grimm’s Fairy Tales to acquaint myself with his culture,” said Larnach."

When I cruise TD, I look at the author. Some I breeze by but when BallsRand Is the author, I am all over it. No breezing by!

If only there was a hilarious disclaimer at the top of the page...oh wait...

@Brock Beauchamp---thanks---I am a little thick headed at this point in the winter, my HBPM still low and starting to come out of hibernation in my buildup to Spring Training 🥱!

Um, satire isn't satire when you have to explain it.  Is this what the world has come to, that we have to explain that we're just kidding?

Anyway, nothing is funny that starts off by explaining that it isn't real.  We (hopefully) fully understand it's going to be satire, but it's ruined anyway.  Have you ever had someone show you something and say this is really, really funny?  It never is.
