If Plouffe could improve against righties, he would be a lot more valuable. Maybe Vavra can help him with that.
Oh, for crying out loud.
Time to go do something else with my night.

I think that some of this is a result of the team developing a losing mentality and that there would be fewer flubs if the Twins were in contention.
If you slice Manship thin enough he could be useful as a doorstop.
I liked that other guy Mansihp better. Then again, conveniently enough, they do both pitch for the MLB's door-mat.Quote:

Not unlike watching Twins baseball, in a weird sort of way.
Really makes me appreciate Frankie's effort last night.
Burton & Perk, too.
I am watching this on the internet and feel the same way, absent the cat. I could live with this if the Twins would at least score a FEW runs.Quote:
