    Another sickening game.

    You are not alone in this. It seems to me that Deduno could be an ace if he could get a bit more control over his fastball.

    The amount of voter fraud in the U.S. is negligible. This is part of a nationwide effort to trim the rolls of Democratic voters. As for felons voting, I think that the more significant issue is why does the "greatest" country in the world also have the greatest number of felons, and why are so many of the felons people of color. And someone please explain how the war on drugs is working. Also, because of the outdated electoral college, my vote won't count. I live in California, which will go for Obama no mater what. Indeed, the vast majority of Americans don't live in "swing states", so our votes for president don't have any impact. We are effectively disenfranchised. The only good news from my perspective is that a Republican administration is going to save me a ton of income taxes. But I will be saddened by the upcoming rape of the poor and the middle class, with the exception of those stupid enough to vote for Romney. I have been giving most of my tax savings from the Bush tax cuts to feed poor children and families, but wish that there was some charity that served only the needy people who are smart enough to vote for their own self interest.

    It seems like next year is going to be another non-contending season for the Twins, so I would recommend being very conservative.

    Good article. Too bad someone doesn't tape these games and put them on youtube.
  6. glunn
    It sure doesn't seem that they are.

    Another AGONIZING game. I admire those with the intestinal fortitude to watch it.

    This may be another game where the Twins can do nothing against a pitcher whose stats are mediocre. I feel that maybe the Twins have such a losing mentality at this point that they just wish that the season was over.

    Looking at the rosters on the internet, it is clear that even the Indians have a lot more September callups than the Twins. I find this appalling.

    I get to see the Twins in Anaheim, but dream of visiting Target Field. On the other hand, if the management of the team fails to make some bold moves, I can understand people not renewing their season tickets.

    I didn't watch it but read the transcript today (with his ad libs), it was a pretty great speech. I read somewhere that with the speech Clinton more or less takes over the position of the elder statesman of the party (from Ted Kennedy). Seems about right. Clinton's speech was the best I have ever seen. And he masterfully exposed the fundamental incorrectness of most of what the Republicans have been saying about Obama.

    Welcome new player!

    Finally an explanation that is at least plausible.
  15. glunn
    Great story. Thanks for posting this.
  16. glunn
    I am ready for a new, permanent GM.
  17. glunn
    This was very well written and brightened my day. What an inspiring win.

    This is a great article. Don't be surprised if Slama ends up doing a great job for some OTHER team next year. If that happens, it will be 100% on Ryan's head. Are the Twins being cheap here, because they don't want to pay the callups? Maybe the fans should respond by being too cheap to go to the games?

    This has been a bad season to be a Twins fan.
  20. glunn
    That is not totally necessary now, is it? In this kind of scenario, the truth needs to be bent a little bit. If we start quibbling over every word, we will never get this done. Some of us would like to see Ryan replaced, but in the meantime I think we can all support whatever good things he might do. Please sign me up for this petition!

    I think the best-case scenario given their limited options and payroll restrictions is that the Twins envision: 1) 4 current cheap options clearly rise to the top here in September and through Spring Training (some combination of Diamond, Deduno, DeVries, Hendriks, Hermsen, Walters, Hernandez and Vasquez) 2) 1 mid-priced FA signing of an innings-eating-type 3) prayer and hope that the additional healthy availability of Baker and Gibson (no later than June) bolsters the SP staff, which then cull the arms that get hurt or struggle Being a Twins fan seems to require a lot of prayer.

    I am liking what he has shown thus far.
  23. glunn
    The bunt by Doumit?
  24. glunn
    Vasquez made a great play on that bunt to nail the runner at third.
  25. glunn
    It seems to me like Vasquez has pretty decent stuff.
