Is it officially ok to like CASTRO !!!! now?

 

Yes.

[bighat]

Attaboy Kep.

I want the Twins to chew up this Swanson guy like the meat pitcher he is....

 

I swear to God this is true: my second favorite desert on earth is the little brownie that comes with the Swanson chicken dinner.

 

Absolutely fabulous...just like Kepler, as I've always said.

[Don Walcott]

Kepler! Maybe he’ll be okay?

Ding and dong yo

The production at catcher has been so remarkable

With chicken dinner for dessert? (After the brownie, of course.)

It also occurs to me, if Olivia Newton John married Wayne Newton, then divorced and married Elton John, she'd be

 

Olivia Newton John Newton John.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO Mad Max!!!!

The twitter feed of the game, couple of reports said that Ryne Harper is warming up in the bullpen, speculation was that perhaps Pineda is hurt...

 

The Twins have a reliever Ryne Harper up and throwing in the bullpen. Perhaps Pineda is dealing with an injury.

 

Looks like he's back, but both Phil Miller and the MLB.com reporter mentioned Pineda could be hurting...

Is there an update, is Harper still throwing up in the bullpen?

[IndianaTwin]

Regular update: Kepler now with 17.66 percent of all homers hit by players born in Germany.

[Don Walcott]

That wasn’t predictable.

[operation mindcrime]

Who are you, and what have you done with Jason Castro?

Jason Castro was abducted by Aliens!!!

[USAFChief]

Buxton catches that.

[USAFChief]

 

Jason Castro was abducted by Aliens!!!

So we didn't build the wall after all?? 

 

I'm confused.

[IndianaTwin]

Occurs to me that if daughter of Pete LaCock, let’s call her Jane, married the son of Dave LaRoche, she would be Jane LaCock LaRoche.

Jason Castro was abducted by Aliens!!!

Whereas when the Aliens came to abduct Willians Astudillo... ?

 

go!

Man, the ban-button trigger-finger was itching for a moment there. Maybe if someone explains the joke to me, it'll still happen.

[MNT1996]

Even with that homer I'm still liking what I'm seeing from Pineda tonight. Pounding strikes in there and keeping the pitch count low.

I was about to say the same thing, he should be able get through 6 and possibly get an out or two in the 7th. That'd be big for resting the bullpen.

Apparently things haven’t gotten any better. Now he’s up chucking in the bullpen.

[USAFChief]

It occurs to me, if LIv Ulman married Judge Lance Ito, then divorced and remarried Jerry Mathers, she'd be

wait for it

Speaking of names, I always wished Ian Desmond switched his uniform number to twenty-two. Would have loved to see the back of his uniform say “Desmond Two Two.”

Thank God I don't speak French!

[Mill1634]

i LOVE LaTroy calling Dick Richard.

[Mill1634]

CRON CRUSHED!!!!!!!!

 

 

Holy cow

Quite the hurler, it seems.

[USAFChief]

Holy balls.
