  1. i'm reminded of an iron-ranger college chum who vowed not to go to class until the temp climbed above zero. day after day he waited out an unusually frigid minnesota winter in his apartment -- empty beer cans piled high while cig butts and roaches collected in his giant-sized ashtray. then one day the cold snap subsided and the temp suddenly rose well above freezing. i ran into him outside and assumed he was finally headed back to class. "nah," he said. "this weather is way too nice for that."
  2. who is this joe mauer character and where did he come from?
  3. huh. all this time i thought the voice was saying "... windows testicle support ..."
  4. sano needs some time at first base. otherwise he'll be a full-time dh before long.
  5. nick and sydney both make good cases. i recall several losses over the weeks where it seemed curious that arcia wasn't called on to pinch hit, but the .199 in rochester and the strikeouts were lame. so i return to my earlier point: maybe his confidence is such that he figured he'd be better off starting over ANYWHERE else. a little self-sabotage.
  6. maybe arcia subconsciously (or consciously) wanted a fresh start via self-sabotage?
  7. I pulled up to the 7-eleven and the guy was locking the door. I said, hey, your sign says "open 24 hours." and he says, yeah but not in a row.
  8. i made instant coffee in the microwave and went back in time.
  9. seems like no one recognizes the only reason florida even exists: air conditioning.
  10. can be pretty sure it's not eduardo núñez ...
  11. seems like a textbook case of damned if you do, damned if you don't ...
  12. well, i'm not above a little schadenfreud: urias, the teen phenom for the dodgers, gave up three runs on 36 pitches in his first major-league inning.
  13. remember that four-game winning streak? that was awesome.
  14. to paraphrase jack nicholson in batman, this club needs an enema.
  15. four straight after that 0-9 hole oughta make terry ryan the early leader for exec of the year, right?
  16. looks like bruno will have to work some more of his magic.
  17. i'm reminded of the allan sherman song from the '60s about camp granada. the kid is writing a long letter home about how everything sucks, it won't stop raining and the parents shoulda never sent him. suddenly the sun comes out and everything is great: Wait a minute! It's stopped hailing. Guys are swimming. Guys are sailing. Playing baseball. Gee! That's better. Muddah, Fadduh, kindly disregard this letter!
  18. twins can't get a break. they don't even get to face their favorite batting-practice pitcher this series: chris sale.
