I recall it took Corey Koskie a while to become a good 3rd baseman. Miranda can do this too. His current bum arm status may be the greater issue.

The frogs may return to Finland.

Tony Oliva and Rod Carew had very serious knee injuries that might have benefited from recent surgical improvements.

I recall attending a Twins game with my wife and several of our co-workers. A bunch of ‘fans’ seated nearby were yelling racist slurs at Al Newman, who was still playing then. We did get into a shouting match that could have escalated further but given the size of both groups it did not.

Replace ‘fan’ with ‘human being’ and I doubt much will be different.

The Packers are publicly owned, and I like that.

I think the only team in all of sports that I truly dislike are the Dallas Cowboys, probably because of the “America’s Team” moniker. They’re not. The Redskins name and the Indian’s logo were also pretty bad, and I’m happy to see them gone.

Which seems to be a common theme in so very many threads. And is kind of unfortunate. But, you get used to it.

I’d be happy (and I know it) with this plan, MVP or not.

I feel, more than think, that Lopez might reach this height.

The new rules say the pitcher can only do two pickoff throws to, say, first, yes? What are the rules regarding a catcher making a pickoff throw? Do the same limits apply?

And a nontrivial portion of humanity in general.

How bad did the injury to Gordon look?

It may all come down to the bullpen.

Speaking of spending money with no plan; I give you the Los Angeles Angels.
