Nice catch by Curtis on that drive by Mauer. From what I see, his fielding is better than fine.

Easy win, the Twins are the Washington Generals for the Yankees.

[144] Bonser and Pouffle, the law firm I’d be least likely to hire …

It’s a shame the Twins don’t still have Boof Bonser. Boof and Pouffe.

Yawn..hey, did you guys know Sidney Ponson’s career earnings in MLB is more than $23 million? After taxes, agents, bar bills..he should still have a good 7 or 8 million left..

“Joe Girardi, your team has been hitting so well, what’s going to happen when A-Rod comes back?”

“We’ll be better. We’ll be deeper. We’ll be longer.”

At that point, Mrs. Girardi fainted.

[132] Of course! WAR is a counting stat.

But I think OYF’s point is to show how valuable Mauer is when playing. The answer is, incredibly valuable, among the most valuable players of all time. (Not this year, obviously.)

[130] YEP, games played counts! It’s included when calculating WAR, isn’t it?
