    It's actually a lot like it, but only if there are 10,000 people standing around in the parking lot and they each drove by themselves. Then you've pretty much got it. But if you are on Lakeshore Drive going past the fountain, you are more less parked already, so you can probably at least toss your cousin in the fountain. The bad news is he will be able to get back in the car before you get through the stoplight.

    Way to go, Trevor, way to go! Clap, clap!

    If you are down here Memorial Day weekend the answer to the question is "it will take 2.5 hours". That's to park your car. Just forget about the rest of the itinerary.

    It wouldn't hurt his cornering ability either.

    Nice hit by Plouffe. Too bad Vargas had bricks in his pocket while he was running to third.

    Yeah, keep thinking that hasn't already happened...

    I'm sure Circus Boy's HR department is cutting the check right now. You may have to send him a W-9.

    Be glad she didn't kick you in the head.

    Not me, I've got bad knees.

    Don't tell me you'd ignore Maggie. She wouldn't let you.

    Well, you don't have a bunch of angry Minnesotans yelling all over the internet that you're an overpaid bum, so you've got that going for you. Which is nice.

    Choo choo ch'boogie!!! {Is that one better?}

    I was just happy he didn't wreck his back trying to hit the ball to Hudson WI. The RBI is just a bonus.

    May 1-2-3 with a K on 15 pitches. I'll take it.

    I'm a big dog and I support this message.

    If Zuke's late home run yesterday had won the game, would he be sitting today? Inquiring minds want to know.

    The choo-choo's going to be late!

    I would like Meyer to force the issue, right now. For Buxton and Sano, I'd be happy to have them get a month or so under the belts after being out most or all of last year before I had any concern at all.

    My own personal definition is that an ace is someone recognized across the league as more than just a team's best pitcher. If you have an ace pitcher, you expect to win when he starts and it is built on multiple years. Last year, even though Hughes had ace-like stats, I just knew that the Twins had a chance to win. This year, I hope to get to that level soon. One year should not an ace make, whether it is a rookie year or year that could mean "breakout" or "fluke". From the other side of the field, when you are facing an ace you think "Man, I hope we can get a fluke run and try to make it stand up today." People may have thought that about Hughes in the second half of this year, but probably not right now. Radke and Baker gave the Twins a good chance to win. That's a really good thing but with my definition, it doesn't make them true league-wide aces.

    He is up at least partly because two infielders are on the DL. After 3 k's the Padres walked Rizzo with two outs to get to Bryant. Routine grounder inning over.

    I've got expectations of zero for this year and it's a lot easier that way. Not trying at all to predict record, place in the division, etc, or get worked up about who should or shouldn't be on the team. I think, at least for this year, my goal is to hope for good baseball and enjoy it when it happens. I will also try not to slam doors when terrible baseball happens. And if I can keep that going for at least 3 days it will be a good thing.

    Twins Win!

    He thought it was dodge ball and he was gunning for the runner.

    "Downtown" Kurt Suzuki lobs one into the outfield seats! Go Twins!

    Interesting...I'm thinking about food.
