The loathing I feel for Burton cannot be quenched, even with less Ku-bell or BP fastballs from Matty Guerrier

 

Is it his personality or his face?

Just Bombs got lucky with two mistakes in a row

With my luck he'll make it out of the inning, his ERA will creep back under 6 and Gardy and Rick Anderson will continue to think he's turning it around and can find his 2012 form.

I will say. We're in the middle of a 20 game stretch and we've done fine with only 12 pitchers. ("only 12")

 

Not the 12 I'd prefer to have, but you take your small victories

This might be the smokiest and mirrorsiest game the Twins have played this year. Since the KC start against the Yankees over the weekend, anyway.

No bombs.

Gonna have to change the nickname.

ooof , glad I'm only following at 35,000 feet...

If Jared "Just Bombs" Burton doesn't give up a run this inning I'll consider bringing prayer back into my life because it will be proof that god is real.

Just Bombs escaped a leadoff walk. Some things in baseball just don't make sense. Jared Burton's continued presence on the 25-man roster, is one of those things (to me).

Six hits and six walks given up, six runs scored.

 

So that's... mostly good, yet oddly disturbing.

So I'm not quite sure where you stand on Burton...

I deserve that.

Is that a young Ginnifer Goodwin?

My goodness the roadie tasked with pyrotechnics is slow...

I deserve that.

 

I'm all in favor of reverse jinxing

Well the Twins FO has been full of weird decisions. Burton makes more sense than Guerrier or Bartlett and possibly even Kubel.

 

Carnac: Arizona governor Jan, retired Dodgers pitcher Jim, and Bernie.

Ed: Hey-yo, that is quite the motley list of characters. Arizona governor Jan, retired Dodgers pitcher Jim, and Bernie?

Carnac: Exactly as I said. Prognosticated, even.

Ed: I can not, nor can any mere mortal, fathom any connection, ANY, among these three disparate individuals. But you, YOU, oh great seer of the past and the future, have divined the connection already.

Carnac: If you are through blowing the hot air, shall I open the envelope?

Ed: Please do, Your Magnificence.

Carnac: Name a Brewer, a Brewer, and a ridiculous mascot.

I'm glad I've always been able to not fall out of the stadium or arena I've been in. It was a close call at the old Boston Garden though.

Everyone makes more sense than Bartlett. Two pennis and a nickle makes more cents than Bartlett. I can't wait utill I get old and can forget about his return to Minnesota

I see you have zero tweets. I would pay for your social media skills.

 

The tweet that can be read is not the eternal tweet.

Who's return?

Well...who's performing the high wire act in the 8th?

They were just trying to win the 2006 AL Central. 8 seasons after they already did it.

Gettin a little late... My son took a fastball to the face. Broke his nose.

Did he break up a no-no with a bunt or somethin?

 

//actually, hope he's ok//

So I'm not quite sure where you stand on Burton...

 

On his throat, if given the chance.

Who's return?

 

Well played.

 

I don't know... Third base?

Sorry man. He might look cool walking around with a couple shiners though.

Spend time in the emergency room, did you?

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.
