Good call on the monthly standing room tix. I hadn't considered that.

We've gone down to KC maybe 10-12 times and usually stayed in the Country Club Plaza area, although we stayed downtown a couple blocks from the Power Light district last year which was a nice change of pace. There's a free light rail thingy that runs between KC Live! and the City Market neighborhood - both are spots worth checking out. Sneaky good KC BBQ recommendation that nobody ever mentions when talking KC: Char Bar.

If you're going to do that, why not just re-sign Sano instead to at least get the same player with a right handed bat? I'm not suggesting that either, but honestly... What are we doin' here?

You've pushed an image of Bonnes in a short sparkly dress into my mind. Why would you do that?

Ditto... Except 8:09.

After giving the definition of insanity, two paragraphs later we see: "What would make absolutely zero sense though, is to cut bait over the winter after hanging on through what the Twins did." Then Ted says we shouldn't base decisions off of 13 appearances, after the preceding blog uses those exact 13 appearances as justification for potentially keeping him around. I mean, what what are we doing here? This a crazy blog, man. Wacky. Keeping Pagan around would simply be a move to placate the Falvine ego, not acknowledge another bad bullpen acquisition, and move on from it. The definition of insanity.

I’m also down here in the Fort at what was supposed to be a ball trip, Went to the Gopher game yesterday. Saw Rocco and his big floppy hat being chatted up by a rando outside the team store. Saw Mike Hermann wandering the concourse. That was the extent of our celebrity sightings. No activity anywhere else in the complex.

Hard to call a stadium that's a Soler HR (does he still hit those?) away from a major interstate "the middle of nowhere", but if the point is that it's surrounded by acres of parking lots, then point taken. In that same vein, since you ended up Ubering to the park, this omission is understandable, but for those actually driving to the park, because of the acres of parking, the tailgating experience there is another part of the environment that's great and something we just can't really replicate here for really any sports since the Met was turned to gravel, with the possible exception of Gopher football, but even that can't be replicated. They're good fans down there, and with the Twins fans mixed in, it turns into a "community" feel quickly. #SharedBeer

This. Trevor's trying to get a foot in the media door doing work with Stadium, and he's been pretty good. The Winter Meltdown built on that. He might be a good combo of Morneau analysis and Blyleven personality.

If they even sniff at Grandal, the faith Falvine has earned since their arrival will start to erode. This implication that this would even be something to be considered this offseason given the price tag that he's sure to command with 4/5 of a rotation needing to be filled would be irresponsible at best and bordering on silliness.

Babytown Frolics is the name of my favorite rockabilly band.

Just the opposite. It helps identify inefficiencies in the delivery and provides an opportunity to clean it up.

The Stage 8 fella needs to immediately ban this guy for heresy. #Stage12ForLyfe

Snowshoes. The correct fix is snowshoes.

I don't know if I'd say this "great" news... Or bad news. It's just news. I still feel incredibly itchy and uncomfortable with the whole situation.
