    Today marks another day in the saga of Twins Daily game thread brilliance. Well, some call it mediocrity, but, as the author I say, "Brilliance." The Twins got off to a decent start the second half, taking two of three from Cleveland. Then, some team from some where came into town and some things happened. And that's all we'll say about that. Today, another good baseball team comes to town and the Twins get another tough test. And, unfortunately, this kind of test is not graded on the curve. This is a pass/fail test across 4 days. Even more interesting, this test continues over the next few months in different locations. And there is no mercy rule with this test. Nope. None. Nada. The test continues until only one is left standing. Will the Twins be left standing? Will they be the only ones? Please keep tuned in and find out! Continuing on with this theme, some things to think about: 1. Batman TV series: Seriously good fun or seriously campy? 2. The better joker: Heath Ledger, Jack Nicholson or Cesar Romero? 3. Best Batman: Adam West, Michael Keaton, Ben Affleck, Christian Bale or Val Kilmer? 4. Best Penguin: Burgess Meredith or Danny DeVito? Pitching for the Twins: Kyle Gibson Pitching for Oakland: Mike Fiers 5. Play Ball!

    Well, two out of three is a good result. Twins leave gaining a game on Cleveland.

    I guess Baldelli is bringing in Rogers because Rogers warmed up. I guess I understand why, but I still don't like it.

    I was just set to complain about Cave and he went deep. Then, as I'm typing this, I hear that Cleveland went deep. Darn it.

    Kepler brought his:

    Mike, excellent break out and I look forward to future articles. ...that will be $20. Oops, was our deal supposed to be private? Seriously, though, good job on an interesting subject.

    Rogers really took apart Cleveland in the ninth.
  15. Blake
    WINNAH!
  16. Blake
    Really? Because I just did. You didn't see it? I think I'll call you: Umpire!
  17. Blake
    I think we see Parker next inning. I think Rogers was brought in to face Clevelands best hitters. Edit: Got that wrong. Not sure I like this, because it takes Rogers off the table for at least a day.
  18. Blake
    Is it getting to be time for the FO to think about offering a contract to Rogers?
  19. Blake
    Who?
  20. Blake
    I wish Bark would show up. We could use a bottle of "GarvSauce."
  21. Blake
    Seriously, this ump gives away strikes that are outside to Cleveland calls a ball that's clearly in the zone a a ball

    He can scratch his own rash, thank you very much!

    Okay, so far, I've suggested sending Sano down only to have his bat get better. I also suggested Schoop get a few days off and his bat got better. Gibson needs to be trade for a PTBNL. Or a bag of balls. A used baseball?

    I was sitting quietly, minding my own business, imbibing some game thread inspiration when, wouldn't you know it, someone thought they should tell me my behavior was inappropriate. I looked at the interloper with a steely glaze and asked them who they thought they were, interrupting my contemplation of a very important matter? I further explained that drinking inspiration is a time-honored method of writing and how dare they question my methods? Next thing I knew, I was on the street, my meager possessions in hand and cursing the busybody who dared question my methods. I guess I shouldn't have been drinking amber colored liquid from a cut glass tumbler during working hours in front of the boss. It's been a nice break from baseball, though, I admit some withdrawal symptoms. But, I was able to get my baseball fix through Twins Daily, which helped get me through those rough moments. Call it, "Methadone for Fans." "Fanadone?" The Twins are at Cleveland and I look forward to this series. I hope the Twins can pick up a game against Cleveland but, there's no way I can claim to be other than nervous about this series. Still, though, it's going to be fun to watch and I'm really looking forward to it. As, I'm sure, are a lot of Twins fans. And now, it's that time we all look forward to in Game Threads! 5 Things To Think About! 1. Ice in top shelf whiskey: Abomination or abomination?2. Cold beer, cool beer or warm beer? Which is right?3. Ball Park Nachos made with cheese whiz: Abomination or grotesque?4. Cowbell or vuvuzela: minor or major annoyance? Lineups: 5. Play ball!
