This goes out to you North, but I don't suspect that the Twins are responsible for this homicide.

 

 

Not sure if...

 

 

...ok to 'Like' picture of dead bird.

Yeah, they would have swung and miss... ...

God I hate the ****ing Blue Jays.

Is there a precedent for a game thread Winner posted before the first pitch?

[Riverbrian]

It's OK... It's Dog Eat Dog World out there and the Blue Jays know it.

 

 

However... I shudder to think of what kind of photo's of Mary Kate and Ashley that they are posting on Blue Jays Daily.

Probably that one where they have identical clothes and hairstyles.

Managing 101 says that a guy with a .215 ave and .303 obp is the ideal guy to leadoff.

 

Well Dozier has performed so well when they dropped him down, it was clear he earned that spot back.

And it's not like they have another second baseman on the roster who might profile well at the top of the order.

Assuming that the scorers could tell the difference with the Cy Young candidates they'd send to the mound.

I think we should start locking up talent. Duensing, Fien, we need to put some of these guys (back) on the 40 man.

And crazy eyes. Don't forget the crazy eyes.

Expressive minimalism. 

 

If you die in the near future, it will probably be worth a fortune.

Another look at Nick Blackburn?

I was just thinking it could be time to sign Punto for the rest of the season. Retire as a Twin, first base retired in stead of his number.

[Pardon My Dinger]

A mere period can't be expected to stop my thoughts. I need three to accomplish the task.

Commendable.

[Bark's Lounge]

I hear there is a Twins Monument up in the Iron Range called Mount Sadmore.

[LaBombo]

 

A mere period can't be expected to stop my thoughts    whirling, transient nodes of thought careening through a cosmic vapor of invention. I need three to accomplish the task. 

 

ITFY.

It's have a flashback Thursday.

Look out! Pitz is gearing up for a good one!

I'd start by finding a couple DFA'd outfielders with no past and no future, sign em and get em on the 25 quick like.

 

Edit:  on second thought, better sign at least one extra.  You never know when one will turn down your offer of a big league job.

Braves off to an early negative lead tonight in their 'Worst Record In MLB' cage match with our beloved Twins.     Something called Foltynewicz has given up five runs for Atlanta, while Pirates hurler J.  Locke,   who I'm pretty sure is the bald guy from 'Lost',   has held the Braves scoreless through three.

One of the worst umpires in the game, and certainly the biggest jerk, is behind the plate today.  Fun.

[David HK]

 

Over/Under 10 home runs the Blue Jays hit in the series? Maybe should have moved the total closer to 20? Who knows but this could really inflate the team's ERA this weekend.

Cripe, I'm just hoping the 10-run rule is in effect for this series...

already not on the same page?

Thank God

 

I thought the Acid was bad for a second.

Anybody who's been worried that another losing season will prove too much for even the relentless optimism of Dick Bremer can rest assured that the Twins already have their Plan B guy ready to go:
