This reminds me of something True Story -- I was around 22 years old and I was doing radio in a small Minnesota town. I was handling a daily feature called the "Trading Post" People would call in and say... "I've got a Kitchen Table for Sale... Good Condition... I'm asking 5 dollars". And I would repeat it back... OK... A Kitchen Table for sale... Good Condition... 5 dollars seems like a fair price... What Number should they call?: The hour was very popular and it was used to list a lot of farming equipment because... lots of farmers were listening. Now... I have no idea about farming equipment... so I would be just repeating it like I heard it and I had no idea what I was talking about. I kid you not... One day... Someone calls up and says... I got some Fence post Holes for Sale... Brand New Condition... 10 Bucks a Piece... And Yep... I repeated it just like it was normal... OK... This fine gentlemen has some Fence post Holes for sale... Just 10 Bucks... My boss came into the studio... and stood behind me and waited for me to go to break just so he could look at me for about 15 seconds and then burst into laughter. True Story

Bark!!! We need Shin Soo Choo's head on a Shih-Tzu

It's what... 6PM in California. Go get some sunshine before it's falls into the ocean.

Airbags that deploy when you step on the warning track.

He played that ball just like a 2nd baseman should.

I've read opinions saying that Vargas was a potential 40 man cut to make room for other stuff. Not me He hits the ball too damn hard to let some other team have for free. I really think he could be special.

Vargas is looking... Extraordinary.

I'm always ahead of myself. Just in case I'm going the wrong way.

Polanco? Walker? Boshers? Berrios? If Buxton ends up on the D.L?

We never buy actual peaches. Canned peaches... All the time. A guy at work brought in a box of peaches and told everyone to take as many as they wanted. I grabbed 4 Just had one Next time I'm gonna wait for the guy to bring in a box of the sugary syrup.

One more series and Eduardo Nunez is off to the All-Star Game and everybody else on the team is not. Congrats to Nunez… his 1st half was certainly All-Star worthy. Yeah… someone from the Twins has to be on the All-Star team according to federal law; and yeah… maybe Carlos Correa is not going to the All-Star game because Nunez was the chosen token Twins All-Star. But when you look at the production… you gotta say that Nunez has All-Star type numbers and deserves the recognition for that. This ain’t a Ron Coomer circa 1999 Selection. Let’s do some thinking about stars… All Stars… Yes… all of them Here are some things to think about: One more series and Eduardo Nunez is off to the All-Star Game and everybody else on the team is not.

But when you look at the production… you gotta say that Nunez has All-Star type numbers and deserves the recognition for that. This ain’t a Ron Coomer circa 1999 Selection. Let’s do some thinking about stars… All Stars… Yes… all of them Here are some things to think about: 1. Norm Green – Norm Green and some other guys bought the Atlanta Flames and then moved them to Calgary. The NHL later requested that he sell his shares in the Flames and rescue the North Stars and he rescued them by moving them to Dallas 3 years later. This propensity to pack up and leave has given him incredible leverage with United Van Lines. Minnesota nice is a real thing and it’s because we naturally don’t hate… it’s a rather small list of things that Minnesotans truly hate. Mosquitos, No Liquor on Sundays, Scraping Ice off your Car Windows and Norm Green is the entire list. 2. Stars in the Sky – According to estimates, there are about 1 billion trillion stars in the observable universe. That’s from an assumed average of 100 billion stars per galaxy and an assumed count of 10 billion galaxies. Making estimates like these is a very painstaking chore… you have to count them one by one and not lose your place. It is incredibly annoying to get to 994,785,641,286 and then have your wife call to ask what time you are coming home for dinner and then lose your place so you have to start over. 3. The Sun – When it comes to life on Earth there is nothing more important than the sun. Without the sun… we couldn’t enjoy hamburgers, for example, because the grass won’t grow so the cows can’t eat. Without cows and plants and all that stuff… we’d go hungry and we couldn’t survive. Not only would we be dead… we’d also be sleepy and sad all the time because sunlight has the power to stimulate a gland in our brain that regulates our sleep cycle and sunlight is powerful enough to regulate our moods. Sleepy, sad and dead is no way to go through life. Without the sun… we’d have to grow fur because it would be really cold… like International Falls... all the time. Sleepy, sad, furry and dead is an even worse way to go through life. 4. Sally Struthers – I haven’t thought about any stars from Hollywood yet in the star context and it was time. Once you make that decision… you have to decide who the biggest star is and I decided to go into that process open-minded. I cleared my head of the previous 3 thoughts to clean the slate and asked myself… who is the biggest star in Hollywood? OK, go… Sally Struthers for some unexplainable reason popped into my head first. I know she isn’t Bradley Cooper or Selena Gomez or anyone like that but she was the first person to pop into my head and that’s how this works and I’m not changing it. 5. Kepler Space Observatory – Back in 2009 NASA sent this thing into space deep into the Milky Way for the purpose of discovering earth like planets that are orbiting stars. From its position in right field… the powerful Kepler telescope has confirmed that Sano and Vargas do indeed revolve around Mauer. ____________________ Lineups: TWINS Eduardo Nunez® SS Joe Mauer(L) 1B Miguel Sano® 3B Brian Dozier® 2B Max Kepler(L) RF Robbie Grossman(S) DH Eddie Rosario(L) LF Kurt Suzuki® C Byron Buxton® CF Tyler Duffey [R) P RANGERS Shin-Soo Choo(L) RF Ian Desmond® CF Adrian Beltre® 3B Prince Fielder(L) DH Jurickson Profar(S) 1B Rougned Odor(L) 2B Elvis Andrus® SS Nomar Mazara(L) LF Robinson Chirinos® C Chi Chi Gonzalez [R) P Game-time forecast: 95 deg F (but feels like 101), clear and sunny, no chance of rain, winds at 18mph from the S.

Vargas needs to work on his baserunning a bit though.

Vargas hits the ball so hard. He's just gotta work out... It would be a shame if he didn't.

Well Yeah You have to follow him to listen to him because if you don't... he just gets fainter and fainter until you can hear him anymore.

The saints are following him.

I'm a big fan of the Band Even bigger fan of the late Levon.
