    Seriously if you're in about your 30's and your foot just seems to stay sore, ask your doctor about gout. (It's one of those things that often seems to get overlooked but my dad could have written the primer on it. Beer, STRESS, certain nuts, certain veggies are all triggers. My dad ended up on crutches many an autumn due to stress-triggered gout during corn harvest.) Of course, if you had an injury or something else, ignore me. I love online diagnosis.

    Website shows Kwik Trip/Kwik Star Just not in my part of the state.

    Age? Amount of beer consumed? Gout???

    I think the meat trip people are "Kwik Trip" not "Quik Trip" -- but there are chains of both You can find your favorite meat market in Minny on this map: http://www.kwiktrip.com/KwikTrip/MediaLibrary/Locations/PrintableMaps/MN-Map.pdf Now I feel compelled to watch the next commercial to see if I got the spelling right.

    No Kwik Trip or Quick Trip within 100 miles of me. I guess I'm just deprived.

    That Kendrys can hit.

    Dustin Morse ‏@Twins_morsecode 1m Last time #MNTwins had first inning HRs 3 straight games was August 18-20, 1982. Thanks @mitchhestad Before some of you were a twinkle in your parents' eyes!

    Well, Gardenhire hasn't wanted to give Dozier a day off because he was afraid the defense would suffer .... I guess now we get a chance to see. I think Dozier's leaving had to do with the collision.

    I'm sure my posts must all make perfect sense, then .... since I never allow auto correct.

    I'm also of the opinion that it has something to do with his concussion. The other thing it reminds me of is August 2009 when Gardenhire kept trotting Morneau out there even though something really appeared to be wrong (again not just a slump). Later they diagnosed the stress fracture in his back. Mauer is making better contact than Morny did (who didn't make much contact at all as a I recall). I just find it very painful to watch this go on day after day for this long although he had a nice hit an inning ago.

    We got speed .... just not communication.
  13. JB_Iowa
    WHY do they "gotta keep him there"? That is what I want someone to explain. Is this some inviolable law of nature? Was this a condition of his contract? I've gotta think that if Joe Mauer is a good a hitter as we all believe, he's a good enough hitter to be moved around in the line-up.
  14. JB_Iowa
    Well, he was definitely passing along the Pinto "facts" this morning. or should that be

    Berardino's summary from today's pre-game presser: http://blogs.twincities.com/twins/2014/06/11/twinsights-signs-point-to-josmil-pinto-being-sent-down-to-triple-a-rochester/

    I wish someone would explain Gardenhire's stubborness about keeping Mauer near the top of the line-up. From earlier today (presumably the pregame presser): LaVelle E. Neal III ‏@LaVelleNeal 46m Gardy doesn't seem interested in moving Mauer down in the lineup. Says Mauer has to get going in that spot Sometimes we all need a change of scenery. There are others on the team who are hitting well -- changing his spot in the line-up would just be a different kind of mental break for Mauer instead of giving him another day (or more) off. I just don't get this. I suppose Mauer could see it as an insult but frankly, given what has been happening, he should just enjoy the change of scenery.

    Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino 4m Gardy(smiling): "How many different ways are you guys going to ask it? I’m not answering any more questions on Pinto. We're working on it."

    Didn't expect this result tonight. A win, maybe. A shutout? Beyond my imagination.
  19. JB_Iowa
    In fairness, the tweet was from Berardino (PP) but I can about imagine what's going on with the Strib boards.
  20. JB_Iowa
    Joe Mauer is hitting .254. On June 10th. It's a good thing I don't read the Strib comments any more.
  21. JB_Iowa
    Hope they sprayed some rust remover on Perk.

    I have a 4-year old neighbor. One or the other of his parents plays ball with him every single night from about March through October. Bats righty, throws lefty. Looking forward to the 2028 draft.

    Gotta say, though, that the way most of the country was glued to that white Bronco chase ranks as one of the most bizarre TV moments.
  25. JB_Iowa
    There's a certain exuberance in that dugout that's been missing for a long time.
