That was a Circus Boy Circus Boy update

A ghost walks into a bar and says "give me a beer.... And a mop"

Cubs must have a tired pen. Cuz you'd figure Maddon would be calling it by now.

There is a new beer stand next to the Lemurs?

Post of the night!!!

OMG... I never connected the two Richie Rich went sledding all day!!!

There was a movie? I guess that's a way for departed actors to keep acting.

It would have been cool if Casper had friends named Cheyenne and Laramie.

A bowl But... Like Bread Crust... I'm not going to eat the bowl

My Mom woulda never let that happen

But How? I really want to know I've never thought about it... until this very moment.

That's got me thinking about Casper What's his story... What happened to him? Was it ever revealed? How did he become a ghost?

I've decided I'm having Ice Cream Gonna do it Yep

Is Bark here? If he arrives we will work on something.

LOL... Don't you know... I'm still standing... Better than I ever did. Looking like a true survivor... Feeling like a little kid.

The Twins host the Cubs today and it's a battle of Buxton vs. Bryant. Crank up the youth meter because youth will be on full display. Here are some things to think about:1. Youth -- I have a suspicion that this series will be interesting to TD'ers. Perhaps more so than other match-ups. What is fueling this suspicion? It's a sense after reading posts from Twins Daily that seem to imply a majority yearning for young players from the farm. Well... everyone... meet the Cubs! They got youth... 'Just-called-up' players all over the diamond. Kris Bryant (of whom I'm a proud Fantasy Baseball owner) at 3B... Addison Russell at 2B... Jorge Soler (on the DL right now) and this new catcher, Kyle Schwarber, who is hitting .600 and will be sent down after the weekend, regardless. The Twins have Buxton and Rosario up and Vargas back up so youth will be well represented. All these young people probably don't know about all the pitfalls in everyday life that we veterans know, but they have baseball skills and it will be on display. 2. Chicago (White Sox/Cubs) -- Just a quick thought about Chicago... because I hate the White Sox so much... it makes me kind of like the Cubs... umm... just a little bit. If the White Sox were not present in the city... I probably would completely ignore the Cubs. However... because the White Sox are there, for that reason... I just can't totally hate the Cubs. It would just pile up too much hate onto a city that already has crappy traffic. Chicago isn't so bad... ChiTown lives there and that gives it a little coolness. However... if I were commissioner... I would force one of the teams (the White Sox) to move to Mexico City. I'd force the Mets to move to New Jersey; and I'd probably send the Angels packing to Las Vegas, too. This divided loyalty in a city has to stop. 3. Byron Buxton -- He's up and he's exciting even when he sucks. Here's the complicated bottom line from me. He's not ready... and at the same time... he's ready to help this team win. If you watch him at the plate... he's getting fooled and swinging at crap in favorable counts. He's got work to do at the plate and therefore, is not ready... but if you watch him on the bases and in CF... he's ready and he can help the team win. I'd just bat him last until he's able to swing at less crap. His speed can help this team when he gets on base and it will certainly help us defensively. He's our best defensive OF right now. 4. Kennys Vargas -- Hey... Joe Mauer hit a home run yesterday and that is news... it would have been big news but it got dwarfed by the walk off home run hit by Kennys. It's nice to see Joe go deep... I think he has more power than what he has shown... but let's be honest... what the Twins really need on offense is that big bopper with 30-plus home run potential. That guy who can sit in the 4 spot and clean up. Of everyone on the current roster, the closest guy to that guy is... yep... Kennys Vargas. If Vargas could go on a power streak, that would add W's to the W column. 5. The Zoo -- My family and I went to the Zoo last week and as we were walking along the Zoo route, we were walking behind another family with a young boy. We got to the Chimpanzee exhibit and the young boy couldn't find any. His Mom had to point out that the monkeys were kind of hiding in the tree. Then we walked up to the Elephant exhibit and the Elephant was nowhere to be seen. The Boy then asked if the Elephant was in the tree. His mom said, "No... you won't find any Elephant's hiding in the trees;" and the boy said, "They must be good at it". -------------------- Game-time forecast: 78 deg F, partly cloudy, 0% chance of precipitation, winds 12mph from the south, sunset at 9:02pm Lineups: CUBS Fowler CF Rizzo 1B Bryant 3B Montero C Castro SS Coghlin LF Denorfia RF Schwarber DH Russell 2B Hendricks P TWINS Dozier 2B Rosario RF Mauer 1B Plouffe 3B Nunez SS Suzuki C Vargas DH Escobar LF Buxton CF Hughes P (Brought to you by the LUAWFQ) Click here to view the article
