I liked how Castro was sitting on the curve...He knew he couldn't hit Bush's fastball.

King:  How many volunteers for the death squad?

 

Squire:  384, my liege.

 

King:  Round them up.

This has been perhaps the most dismal effort by the Twins this year.  Sleepwalking.

 

Molitor needs to go.

Oh, but didn't you hear? The boys got all bummed out when the FO decided to trade a few people after watching the team blow like 10 late leads in 6 weeks. They were really gutted and just can't muster the enthusiasm to finish out the last 60 games

But they had that fireballer on the mound who reached up to the high sixties at times.

The Twins' hitters opened-up a big can of "I quit!"
