I would like to volunteer to serve on a committee whose only agenda is sending Drew Butera to the northern tip of Baffin Island to fend for himself.

 

Baffin Island was named after English explorer "William Baffin".

 

The Northern Tip was named after Canadian explorer "Northern Tip".

How big of a leashe do you give Diamond, if you're at even a tiny bit serious about winning this game?

 

100 Pitches or 15 Runs... Whichever comes first.

You know, I appreciate what Ryan Doumit did last year, and he works hard now- he's a pro. But it's time to let Arcia and others have his at-bats. I hoped he would have a good year and pull up the young guys with his performance, but it just ain't happening.
Trade deadline is 5 days away. I hope the problem is solved by then. Also, Mauer, Parm, and Colabello should be sharing first base by that time.

Incorrect. Everyone knows Baffin Island was discovered by Mr.Canoehead.

I thought Northern Tip was in honor of the weird haircut that Baffin had?

I've been a Twins fan for 30 years now and this is the worst lineup I can remember.

 

Didn't watch last night's game?

I remember a few, featuring guys like Pete Mackanin and Rick Sofield, but not for a long time. This is pretty brutal. Hernandez gets some credit, but most pitchers would be feasting on this.

We have a little "pick the stick" group. Apparently tonight's big winner will be whoever can avoid going in the hole.

Dan Perkins was the starter and finished the game with a 7.17 ERA.

 

 

 

The Orioles Jason Johnson, with a 6.47 ERA, tamed the Twins bats over 7 IP, giving up 3 earned runs.

 

Upon further reflection, tongiht's lineup is definitely worse.

I've been a Twins fan for 30 years now and this is the worst lineup I can remember.

 

And when Morneau is traded to the Pirates and Doumit is traded to the Yankees. Dozier can slot into the cleanup spot.

Okay the Twins have to score a ton of runs this inning so I can get to bed early

 

I'd send a text to King Felix asking for cooperation.
