Gameday Thread: 6/9 Angels @ Twins

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

49 more RBIs and Pujols could retire with no more milestones. He isn't going to get 700 HR is he?

[BackUpTheTruck]

Kinsler and Pujols FTW!

[DEVLBAT]

Valbuena always looks like he’s doing the robot in the batter’s box.

Pujols with a jack.

It’s always good to see Pujols hit a jack. 

[eligrba4ever]

Exit  100 mph. Launch 32 degrees. Distance 405, (405, same as the parking lot. Does anybody go 100 on the 405?)

[yk9001]

Good for that old man

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Altuve booted an easy DP ball with the bases loaded and 1 out. 2-1 Astros bases still loaded.

He's got three more years to try!

Maybe, maybe not.

Not sure if you have industry comps or not, but if so, do you see lower turnover than average among mgmt? And does that hold true for non-mgmt, with non managers hoping to get there? Always been curious how that model has worked when all experience says it shouldn't. Would love to make it work industry wide, would improve the lives of so many people nation wide. 

Probably a conversation to take off the game day thread, but in a nutshell we have the lowest turnover rate in the industry.  Our average non management associate has been with us over 2 years, in an industry that is usually measured in months.  Our Manager turnover rate is maybe 3-5%.  Our assistant manager turnover is a bit higher than that, but I would assume less than 10%.  If you want to talk about it in depth send me a PM.

If I were the kid, I would have been like, "No, bitch, that ball is mine."

Like it was his fault her giant sloth friend couldn't bend over to pick up a ball....  guilt tripping a kid is weak.

I'm not a fast food lover, but I had the hot dog box a couple weeks ago, it was spectacular!!

Good hot dog

Small burger

Fries

Drink

 

And a cookie!

 

Spectacular!

I had that $5 box at Carls, and my blood sugar skyrocketed.

I felt like hell for hours. No more of that. It was the cookie that did me in, on top of the fries.

Valbuena is useless

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Luis is the worst 3bman. Hurry back Simmons.

[Taylor]

2-1, inning over.

but we're stuck with him due to all the injuries.

This season is going to be a struggle.

Not a smart play by JMF right there.  If he throws to 2nd and then back to 1st, the run doesn't count.

Yep, Hate to say it but Albert makes that play. 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

too bad Simmons was injured instead of Valbuena.

Facking Fernandez...

Will do, thanks and sorry to those that didn't have any interest in the discussion! My bad! 

Go halos!

I've never seen that before

Another hit! By facking Fernandez

[IheartLA]

just eye test but Fernandez doesn't look like he'd be a good fielding 2B, more like a 1B/DH type
