  1. Definitely a candidate for the Bill James Theorem of Pitcher Recycling: Roughly one out of every ten pitchers in the majors was left for dead at some point or another in their career.
  2. At the time of his injury he was abstaining from stealing for Lent. Someone just needs to remind him he's ok to steal until next March.
  3. It's one thing to play against teams with a rising superstar shortstop that we never had a shot at drafting, but seeing the formerly attainable Andrelton Simmons become a good hitter in addition to being a supernatural fielder is enough to make me want to sign a 'Free Nick Gordon!' before he even sniffs AAA.
  4. Exactly how many, or just, like, rounded to the nearest multiple of 10?
  5. If there's a better way to make sure a reliever is cooked when the postseason starts, the Twins would like to hear it.
  6. Pressly very cautiously covering his mouth with his glove during the mound visit so that no lip-reader can see him say "Poop!"...
  7. He's below the Mendoza line this year, so it's at least partly that the Twins are Jonestowning themselves when he's at the plate.
  8. Didn't see his hand get plunked, but that would explain Max's comment to the trainer that was picked up faintly by the parabolic mic... "Lash it to me arm!"
  9. Hitting coach James Rowson throwing a water cooler against the wall?
  10. "Dozier... All he does is pull the ball." http://media.nj.com/times-sports/photo/buddyjpg-a95db8a112d10be9.jpg
  11. Mauer is... uhh, "leading" the majors in lowest rate of swinging at pitches, 29.x% with nobody else below 32 %. On base percentage is great, but it's hard to bring the crowd to the edge of their seats in anticipation of a batter taking a brilliant non-swing at a pitch.
  12. Our dog helpfully pointed this same issue out to us by laying down right in front of us on her side and panting as if she had just finished the Iditarod.
  13. He mentioned this in the postgame last time. Strained frontal lobe, it's affecting his hand/eye coordination.
  14. Hang on, dude, I'm working on it, but the kid and I are trying to blow up the Death Star on the PS4...
  15. Grossman saving the lives of his fellow outfielders with that brave play on an errant grenade to right...
  16. That would explain the odd background audio that the Fox parabolic mike is picking up from the visiting dugout... http://superheatandair.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/fire.gif
  17. Like the Prius, Ororizzi can continue after running out of gas. Also like the Prius, after running out of gas Odorizzi is limited to 18 mph, and isn't going to get you very far.
  18. Dick mentions that Morrison needs only the triple for the cycle, and somewhere in Central America an altar is prepared for a potential once-in-a-millennium event.
  19. Is there some way sLoMo can just kick Lopez around the rest of the season instead of facing all the other guys who can get him out every time?
  20. Jason Castro's nice throwout showing why the Twins are fine with his slash line of .153/.24 .... Holy crap, Castro is hitting .153 ?!? What the...
