Per wikipedia:

 

During bankruptcy proceedings, Twinkie production was suspended on November 21, 2012, and resumed after an absence of a few months from American store shelves, becoming available again nationwide on July 15, 2013

Well that explains it. 

 

The cases of Twinkies I have in my pantry were all bought before 2010. They taste just fine.

Sweet are the uses of adversity...

On another note...anyone watching the Detroit telecast on MLB Network?

 

The Detroit announcers are possible the dryest, most enthusiasm-free team in the history of televised sport.

 

Morneau is Robin Williams by comparison.

 

I did get a kick out of Jim Price and the Tiger's radio broadcast yesterday.

Watching Happ pitch is sort of like having a dull toothache. Unpleasant, but you sort of just put up with it.

I haven't been counting, but Happ doesn't get many swings and misses, but OTOH the contact has been pretty weak. Goodrum hit the ball hard in the third, but Happ was able to pitch around an extra-base hit.

The results so far have obviously been ok.

 

It's just long, and laborious. I'm not a big fan of pitchers who can't live in the strike zone. And that's Happ. He needs every pitch to be on the black, and that's difficult to pull off. 

 

I'm just weird that way. I hate knuckleballers, too.

When do we become worried about Kepler?

With luck, next March.

 

And nobody should worry then either.

Have you ever seen the movie WALL-e? I love that the cockroach lives inside a Twinkie. Heh.
