  Cripes! That looked like a play that could have Joe out for 2 years.

 

 

There are a lot of potential Mauer jokes here - but since I am a Mauer apologist, I will not make any of them.

My bilateral character weakness flared up just reading about it.

  Me too. I actually felt kind of assholish for saying that.

 

[70charger]

 

And they pinch hit for Milone.

Makes sense of course, but now other pitchers have to own Mil, besides Milone...

 

Yeah, not huge on this. If the guy's shutting 'em down, why not keep going with him? How many pitches was he at anyway?

[Riverbrian]

I love it.

 

Oakland DFA's Fuld

 

Twins pick him up and trade him back to the A's and we get Milone out of the deal.

[FattCrapps]

Boyer...

[Gibby]

 

  Me too. I actually felt kind of assholish for saying that.

 

  I'm sorry Jim, if you read here.

[Gibby]

 

  I wish cork would have flown out everywhere.

 

[Squirrel]

Okay, I was going to drop in a scene from Hitchcock's The Birds but that film still creeps me out too much.

I never got how that movie was scary.

[TheLeviathan]

Bullpen still needs help.  

 

Badly.

[Hrbowski]

Stick a fork in him.

[Riverbrian]

Escobar was entertaining the Twins Fans along the LF line yesterday. He took a bow in response to them yelling Eddie after his homerun. If someone yelled his name... He'd turn around and salute them.

 

It was a good thing he was doing that before pitches were thrown

 

It was a fun side if him that I hadn't seen before.

[Brock Beauchamp]

And that's why it's important to have a bullpen that can miss bats. Odds are that something will fall in for a hit sooner or later.

[zchrz]

Ugh Boyer + infielders in the outfield = run

[D. Hocking]

Tweety really creeped me out - I always knew there was a sociopath beneath his cute Cindy Brady like lisp.

We do.

[Riverbrian]

If Birds ever decide to do that

 

It would become scary quick

 

The trip to work would be much more dramatic.

[Brock Beauchamp]

We do.

Blaine Boyer disagrees.

I like how you got Heckle and Jeckle in there.

[Gibby]

  Well, if you have wheels. you have a poop issue. I just pray there aren't mulberry bushes nearby.

The trip to work would be much more dramatic.

But that doesn't mean it's creepy.

 

I mean, if people decided to wink in real life as much as they do on the internet ... it would become scary quick. The trip to work would be much more dramatic.

[Linus]

No jump on that hit. Really wish we could have outfielders in the outfield

[Circus Boy]

With both starters out, it should get interesting down the stretch.

[Hrbowski]

Why not outfielders in the infield?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Yep. And it was an off speed pitch with two strikes. Ideally your relievers should rear back and throw fire in that situation.

[D. Hocking]

 

I like how you got Heckle and Jeckle in there.

 

I can't take credit for the work - but I do think they are due for a comeback movie.

[Circus Boy]

 

I like how you got Heckle and Jeckle in there.

 

I always get them mixed up. Is Heckle the blonde?

[Riverbrian]

But that doesn't mean it's creepy.

Women wink at me all the time.

 

I just assume that they are blinking and their left eye is stuck.

Maybe. My question is, who winks first?
