Tidbit from Podcast:  could be a new GM [external] by 2nd week of Sept.

Crickets can be heard in the stands booing.

Time to get the bullpen working.......

Pictures?

Doubtful, crickets are notoriously camera shy!

[Aggies7]

Well I'm stunned the tandem of berrios and milone have us facing a sweep

[Platoon]

Why did Bert call this a double header. I know it's two games on one day, but it's split gates, and not scheduled. An excellent Twins PR move would have been to open the gates, and let em in!

[Aggies7]

Milone is brutal

[sampleSizeOfOne]

GAME ON !!

 

DOZIER DOUBLE!

Hoorah!!

 

That calls for two exclamation points, as you can see.

Did we lose that game on Monday then?

Clearly I meant the dh sweep

[Aggies7]

I don't know if a 2 inning start is what the doctor ordered after a similar outing earlier

[Aggies7]

It's raining at my house, I think that means we should call the game and wipe away the results

[Platoon]

Polanco looks very athletic, we have had an awful lot of very athletic players this year!

[Platoon]

So now Buddy B has an inflamed elbow? (And ERA)

[HitInAPinch]

Bubba Boshers goes on DL with bad elbow AFTER he gives up 6 runs in 1 inning.  

Say it ain't so

I'm glad I haven't eaten dinner yet. Anything in my stomach would've come back up when they just mentioned that Albers is back on the 25-man roster.

 

Why can't this team quit these awful players? Might as well see if Texas will part with Doug Bernier and get the band back together.

Surprising the Twins are known for the good PR moves this year.

If the Twins dig a deep enough hole even the crickets will find a more attractive venue this evening.

Wish it were here ... and that it would push out this heat and humidity ... and I'm a fan of heat.

[jud6312]

I never thought I'd want Buddy Boshers to get healthy and back in the bullpen soon, but when the alternative is Andrew Albers, I hope he's starts rehab tomorrow.

I'm not sure how people live in Florida. The humidity is stifling.

I suppose you have a day to go. Aren't you normally a day behind us? Weather wise.

I just ate and doing fine. I had two pork belly sliders.

[HitInAPinch]

Polanco with an 11 game hit streak.

Lol ... my parents live there and I've visited then many times in the summer. It's really no worse than what we've been getting in Chicago all summer.

Yes. 

 

Weather wise, dunno.
