Why is Brad Pitt in the Icon for the Game thread. Is it because he portrayed Billy Beane in "Moneyball" and the Twins are currently without a GM. Or is that coincidence and that is someone's member picture?

Chief's current whereabouts being unknown at the moment, I'll step in to answer "Yes". :)

Someone really needs to get him a GPS so he doesn't wander off and get lost. But then again, I'm not sure a man of his age could figure out how to work it.

Looked like an awful jump. Rosario might be lucky Perez couldn't get a handle on it.

We're still talking about the GPS, right?

MLB.tv must have been reading our game thread on hangovers. Because between innings, they had an ad for Goose Island IPA, an ad for Budweiser, and another ad for Goose Island.

RE: THE PHENOM

 

I posted this today on the back end of the Max Kepler thread, thought I'd repost it here where someone will actually read it. Perhaps many of you know this already, but I didn't.

 

We can thank Andy Johnson, the Twins Norway-based scout, for first noticing Kepler. Good article from 2009 which I don't remember reading. 14-15 other teams flew over to Germany to see him. Seems the Twins development plan shone above the others.

And this from Mr-Baseball.com: "Andy Johnson: Played Baseball internationally in Europe and Australia. Served as head coach for the German League Cologne Cardinals and Norway’s Senior National Team. Covers European Baseball as a professional scout for the Minnesota Twins and is a development consultant with the Norwegian federation NSBF."

 

Andy must be very proud. And we're proud of him.

Has it been mentioned that the twins would be right in it if they didn't have one of the worst starts in the history of baseball?

You mean, if the first three months didn't count? :-)
