  1. IDF kills Nasrallah. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/world/israel-lebanon-hezbollah-hamas?nl=from-the-times&regi_id=143837266&segment_id=179102 I don't know if the Arab radicals realize what a shift 10/6 has caused in Israel. It used to be Israel would go after radical leaders as targets of opportunity presented themselves. Now Israel is operating free of any self imposed restraint. I don't know what difference that makes longer term, but it's notable.
  2. May depend on whether Houston vs Baltimore. Are they allowed to make moves between series? Malloy is 2 for 21 in Sept and only 2 walks. He's right handed but he's almost no bat at all at this point.
  3. Minny definitely definitely chose wrong last night (that has to be the ugliest uniform since some of the abominations that Veeck put the WhiteSox in.)
  4. only thing left is whether it's Houston or Baltimore vs KC or Det.
  5. yeah - Twins won the division by 9 last year, will probably end up 10 out this year. KC is going to make the playoffs after finishing 30 out last season. The Central has really been through the blender and back in a year.
  6. Minny now down by 5 in the 8th. All this left to determine is if Det stays ahead of KC. Do we want Baltimore or Houston?
  7. they might have to worry more about Air Traffic Control violations.
  8. League office won't care that Detroit caught and knocked off Minny or KC. If it had been an LA or NY team that got bumped.....🤔
  9. also saving his pitch count.
  10. Need to score another 6 or so and give Jobe another inning.
  11. The AJ Hinch patented 4 out save on tap.
  12. partly I think we have hitters that are maturing and just improving their approaches, but I also think that the staff has gotten better at getting guys off of the pre-game meeting advice when a pitcher has come out deliberately pitching against the scouting report. It seemed early in the season hitters were not adjusting the 2nd time through when their 1st approach was not working - or at least adjusting less than they are now.
  13. IDK, I would think Harbaugh would have Gores wrapped around his little finger in short order.
  14. A lot of things turned at or around the same time. Productivity from Meadows, Riley, Torkelson, Sweeney, Keith, Carpenter all on an upswing.
  15. PersonalConsumptionExpeditures index in today: 0.1% for the month, 2.2% year over year.
  16. Only 17,000 at the Twins game last night. Pretty bad for a team that had been in the playoff hunt all season.
  17. Hill catch wouldn't have been half as hard if he hadn't actually ran past the the ball toward right field. 😉
  18. Then again, if you had calculated the probability of the Tigers winning 85 or more on August 2 I'm going to guess it would have been worse than 1/64. Never tell me the odds!
  19. My guess is Twins lose 1 or 2, Tigers win 2, KC wins 1. We end up #2 (?)
  20. It's OVER. I thought I was going to have to make another pot of coffee for an all-nighter.
  21. 8. Is 8 enough?
  22. Regardless of the outcome tonight, the Twins are going to be so out of gas after this series they will get swept by the O's
  23. Norby is player of the game for the Twins.
