Was that Mauer sleeping in a lounger in the sky box, with a bottle of Jack, lying at his feet?

That's a jug of Kemp's 2%

Give-a-ways tonite for Mauer's induction.

1. Mauer sideburns

2. Head and should Trial size shampoo

3. Mauer batting gloves

4. Mauer bi-lateral leg/calf pads

Why does mlb.com insist the score is 11-1? Is that some AI thing?

In honor of Mr. Mauer, I suggest we go with a straight-up milkshake tonight rather than the customary Blizzard.

Someone at MLB.com had "under 13 total runs" as the 4th leg of a 4 way parlay at +600?

Question: Mauer's hair??

[OptimisticTwinsFan]

So the minor league thread isn't up yet and I will just post here: 

• Jenkins, Winokaur, and Keaschall with good games again that's awesome to see 
• Have you all seen Langford's stat lines? Already promoted to A+ and has 3 doubles, 2 triples, and a home run in 5 games.
  • Correction: .370 average, 4 doubles, 2 triples, and a home run in 6 games

Yeah, that occurred to me, but what would be the point when the final would be corrected a few minutes later? Maybe minute to minute betting has some payoff? Someone might get in serious trouble. That’s why I guess it was some automation glitch. But it does mean Gameday can’t be trusted.
