  1. I'm still thinking Hughes if he holds it together this month.
  2. Is this the son who is going to be a PT? He'll be able to commiserate with his patients about pain. Hope he's okay.
  3. Spend time in the emergency room, did you?
  4. And for old music: dancing in the moonlight everybodys feeling warm and bright its such a fine and natural sight everybodys dancing in the moonlight
  5. That photo actually creeps me out. Some imperfection is necessary.
  6. You were right. Twins weren't But they could still use one.
  7. Haven't a clue but I think Andrew Walter said they didn't some kind of Christmas ones last season. Maybe it's just a Connecticut thing.
  8. Really, though, check out some of these images. Life imitates movies .... http://news.msn.com/science-technology/stellar-photos-from-the-hubble#image=38 Unless, of course, the conspiracy theorists are right and space exploration is all just a big fraud.
  9. Kind of like those Halloween shirts the Rock Cats wore a few nights ago.
  10. Wow, mine is satisfied as long as she is on my lap or under the bed. But my last dog could have used one of those shirts - it was really hard to calm her down.
  11. Those are so retro-ly bad, they're good.
  12. Sorry 1 finger typing ,,, few posts.
  13. Looked at a slide show of Hubble Telescope images on MSN a little earlier ... gorgeous.
  14. Lots of thunderboomers, sharp lightning and a shivering dog on my lap. Ah, well, we need the rain.
  15. I'm really not in favor of these Twins unis. They were a mistake 30 years ago .... and that hasn't changed.
  16. Spring/Summer in the upper Midwest .... Hot as h*ll one day ... Freezing your b*tts off a day or two later.
  17. Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino 17m Nice work by Kurt "Hot Rod" Suzuki on MLB Network's Intentional Talk. Yes, he said he'd change his name to "Hot Rod" for $3 million. :) So would I!
  18. And duh ... I check the PP's page on a regular basis and didn't notice the sidebar on the minors. it looks good there!
  19. Thanks, Nick. Congrats on another tie-in to "mainstream" media.
  20. I was intrigued by this tweet from Berardino: Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino 13m See who our new online partners @TwinsDaily @SethTweets selected as #MNTwins top Minor League Hitter for May: http://twinsdaily.com/content.php/3053-Twins-Minor-League-Hitter-of-the-Month-May-2014 … Just a turn of phrase? I was intrigued by the words "new online partners". Something happening with you all and the PP? Any changes with the Strib?
  21. Rosenthal has some interesting perspective from other agents: http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/rockies-should-trade-carlos-gonzalez-troy-tulowitzki-not-winning-with-both-build-winner-060314 Skip past the Cargo stuff to the middle of the piece. This could turn out to be a bad deal for Singleton. It could also turn out to be a bad deal for the Astros should he be injured, revert to bad habits (he now has money that might make those bad habits even more available) or not develop as thought. It seems like there was risk on both sides of this deal. And that is usually what ultimately makes deals happen. Edit and P.S.: Just as a matter of interest read further in Rosenthal's notes to the effect of shifts on Matt Joyce. Sound familiar???
  22. Andrew tweeted a link to another story today: http://touch.courant.com/#section/2224/article/p2p-80390036/ Interesting to see the maneuvers that will go on surrounding this. And the columnist's dream of vibrant summer nights -- seems like that's always the other selling point. And I agree with JC. I doubt that any of this is to the long-term benefit of the Twins organization.
  23. While there aren't any guarantees, I would also doubt that Buxton would sign a long-term deal pre-callup. He has already pocketed a $6 million signing bonus so many of the issues facing Singleton just aren't there. Might the Twins be able to buy out some of his pre-arb and arbitration years? I think that could happen but I doubt if it happens before he plays a game at the major league level.
