Details

 

Current kitchen is dated -- 40 years old. It got to the point where we had only one working burner and one semi-working oven. We are replacing everything. The best part is that my wife will not be cooking for 5 weeks or so.

There's some blackmail for when we meet in August...

My wife has cooked about 8 times in 28 years.

Anyone else think that Kubel needs to be subbed out?

By subbed out, you mean DFA, right?

Lighten up Francis....

Lighten up Francis....

 

Kidding. Love the quote though. One of my favorites.

[Guest USAFChief]

How come the Twins bullpen doesn't have guys coming in throwing 97?

And miss at bats like that?

Three strikeouts in one inning. Twins hitting needs work.

[Squirrel]

Dave must be at the game again today, too.

[glunn]

Yankees' announcers made a big deal out of the fact that Willingham did not run out the dropped third strike to first base. I agree with them -- he should have tried.

Twins ad from a few years ago -- Tony Oliva's secret to hitting:

 

"See ball, hit ball".

Unfortunately, I don't think Terry Ryan can do an in-game DFA... but if he could, I'd be all for it. Right now, I'd just be happy letting Parmelee hit and play left.

[Gibby]

Welp, I hope the boys get it together. You guys have a great day. I have to go drink myself silly and find someone to push me home in a shopping cart.

[Squirrel]

Nice play at first by Mauer.

[diehardtwinsfan]

Twins need to pull off a win. I don't want to sulk on my 5 hour drive to Cleveland tonight.

Hope they walk slowly in the rain so you have time to sober up enough to stumble in the door.

nice play on both ends

[Riverbrian]

The In-Laws just stopped by... They wanted to know what that thing on the counter was.

 

So I had to show them how the Keurig works.

 

So I did and it turns out that they didn't want coffee.

 

I didn't either... But I'm drinking a cup anyway.

[Gibby]

That's what my Mother always said.

win or lose, no need to sulk...just keep thinking of what awaits you when you get there!

[Guest USAFChief]

Escobar has gone into "I'm hot, swing at everything" mode.

[Riverbrian]

This guy... Betances... He should be closing.

[longstrangetrip]

This Betances is nasty...can't imagine how scary it would be to step in the box against him.

That would be more like dread. I'm in Cleveland for a DoD IT security audit. And I'm responsible as the technical engineer for Exchange and DPM as the primary POCs are out of the office.

 

I'd rather think baseball.

The rest is superflous.

Acronyms have taken over. Or is that AHTO now.

[longstrangetrip]

Hughes has another nice outing going. I know it would have been a tough chance, but if Arcia catches Gardner's ball, it's 1-0 right now.
