LOL!  Not quite the same.

Her adam's apple is suspiciously large.

So who had Brandon Kintzler as the Twins closer before the second week of June?

[Squirrel]

Has Jepsen been unthroned for good? Has Molitor finally given up on him as the closer? Or is he just getting a day off?

Congrats to Brandon Kintzler for his first major league save!

He's been struggling a little, according to bert

Not me, I had the second week of June.

 

I win.  Again.

[formerly33]

I believe the Twins finally have as many wins as the Zephyrs.

Pretty sure none of us Far Side fans have social skills.

 

When I was in college - it was a golden age of literature -=- Far Side, Bloom County, and Calvin and Hobbes were all on the top of their game.  

 

I have spent the evening posting on a webpage game thread as a utility player from the early part of the century - so that will give a hint at my social skills...

Brandon Kintzler looked more in command than Jepsen, I'll vouch for that. I think Kintzler has a lot more variety than Jepsen, and I love his quick pitch trick. I wanna see him do that with a slow curve after a 94 mph heater.

It's okay, mom was still awake from the last time.

[HitInAPinch]

Hey, we resemble that remark!

Yup.  He didn't get rattled with a guy on,  which is maybe even a better closer debut than sitting them down in order.

 

Unrelated nerd prediction.   Before the end of June,  Molitor names Kintzler the closer.   Kintzler remains unowned in 92% of ESPN fantasy leagues.

[USAFChief]

Great job everyone.  Thanks!

[nicksaviking]

Hey, listening on the radio and Kintzler's interview with Corey and Danny also earned him a $100 gift card the Continental Diamond. Things are going aces for this guy!

[David HK]

Wow, had to step out for a while, got back just in time for... well, dessert!

Sorry am slow at partaking in the thread.

 

Glad we did okay.

And by the way ... um ... if this is from The Far Side Calendar ... whatever that is ... this is ... um ... genius?
