    Really? C'mon, Seth. You're a knowledgeable baseball writer and a Twins fan. But please explain how a team that has lost nearly 300 games the past three seasons is best served by keeping two middle-aged, borderline middle relievers on the forty.

    And let's hope the new Twins SP prep prospect they passed on from Bali Hai will come back to haunt them too.

    Looks pretty good after our last annual Memorial Day reun-creation of where it all went wrong: http://www.functionalhandstrength.com/images/dana_florence_bill_crawford_fianna_testing_stone.jpg Your call, JB. Best way into your clan a marriageable female trailing the field, or kooky adoption scenario? Let me know soon.

    It may have happened already, in our distant past. Predating the time when humans became humans, and weapons were adapted into tools, this digital re-creation show a less intelligent, huskless, but more mobile prehistoric ancestor of the watermelon being felled by a violent, early pre-human with a neolithic mallet historians believe was originally used to hunt and smash worms. http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/5-05-2014/3GDkHj.gif

    Powering up the outdoor wet bar?
  15. LaBombo
    And if not, it might be time to sweep the leg in the fifth, especially if rain looks imminent. Then again, Schwarzsox have a pretty mediocre pen so far this year.
  16. LaBombo
    Several, but bats got in the way... Ok, didn't get home and put the game on until top o' the third, but based on that, gonna guess no. Good fastball is great to have, right up until they know it's the only thing hitting the zone.
  17. LaBombo
    Hughes not at his best. Defense picking him up by taking a share of the blame. And Gardy picking him up too. Worrying that the day might come that Gardy would ease up and start to fall off his pace for the AL career manager ejection record... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ixRMNOAoays/SecrrMqR-2I/AAAAAAAAG1s/DsoOPz_LxS4/s400/aragorn+speech.jpg

    Yup. If anyone had said that Mauer would be the only mid-June black hole out of all five infield spots even without Plouffe on the DL, well... nobody would have said that. OTOH, while Willingham and Arcia had nice runs after returning to the lineup, and Hicks' struggles surprised almost nobody but Rob Antony, it's still surprising how rough the overall play of the outfield has been. And small sample plus totally subjective, but Gardenhire seems more short-tempered with the media after losses this year than in the previous three, despite the team's improved play. Managerial style aside, it makes me concerned for his health.
