Escobar looked slow there.

 

Big Pre Game Meal... Judging by looking at his size. He may have had two cookies and now he's stuffed.

Spot on.

 

I never thought I'd detest a Twins middle infielder more than Punto, but Florimon now takes it. Punto's 'heart' and defense were also over-rated, but at least he could make the all the routine plays.

Kubel has surprised me - and that was vs a lefty.

Colabello was the cornerstone of that entire inning. Just loved it.

I don't think Plouffe and his possible turning a corner is getting enough attention.

I had high hopes for Escobar. Keyword: "had".

John, could you expand on your thoughts about PLouffe.

"I"ll have what she's having" ... Best movie line ever?

This little opposite field loop to right field that he has found has completely changed his value, IMHO. He could suddenly be a .270 hitter instead of a .230 hitter and not completely worthless against right-handers. A guy with his profile who hits .270 is Michael Cuddyer at third base.

Best movie line ever: "Inconceivable"

Good, but IMO beaten by the last "as you wish."

I talked jokingly about how Kubel might be the best left fielder the Twins have, but it's no joke. He really is the best guy for out there.

 

Hmmm, I think Herrmann and Mastroianni would be better fielding-wise, but the way Kubel is hitting, who cares?!

My favorites are all obscure Chevy Chase lines. This is #2:

 

Rusty Griswold: Wow dad, we must have jumped that rail by like 50 yards.

Clark: Nothing to be proud of Russ...

[pauses as Rusty walks away]

Clark: [proudly] ... 50 yards...

 

"Yeah but Daddy says I'm the best"

Stupid Mauer swinging at the first pitch Why doesn't he take a few pitches for a change?

 

At least we know that either he or one of his siblings is reading TD....
