2. Yovani Gallardo -- Born in 1986 in Mexico. When I think of Mexico... I think of Cancun, Acapulco, Cabo... the Tourist spots. Turns out... There is a bunch of Mexico that isn't exactly touristy and that is where Gallardo comes from. Gallardo grew up on a burrito farm. On hot summer nights... Yovani and his brothers and sisters... aunts and uncles would climb the burrito trees and drop the ripe burritos to the ground. It was hard work and working from sun up to sun down made him extremely boring. Throughout his major league career. Gallardo has never been amazing and he has never been bad... He's been consistently above average. When I've seen him pitch... he has an assortment of real good breaking pitches that seem to break late. You know... the kind of pitch that Mauer has been struggling with this year.

 

 

Wow, you'd have to have some killer break on your pitch to throw down a ripe burrito and not have it... well, break. Was no one down there to catch them?

 

As always, i am lookin' forward to the game.

 

Thanks for them thoughts!

It has been awhile since I have seen Clint Eastwood, Tony Dow, and Bugs Bunny referenced together.

 

Brian's style is an extreme form of stream of conscioh look there's a butterfly.

Where?!

 

Doh! i missed it. they always seem to flutter by. And just when i was watchin' the game.

 

(Two leadoff brewer hits doesn't help the cause much. But Deduno got the next 3 outs, allowin' a run to score)

Plouffe gets picked off, but ends up on third.

 

This is the kind of play that gets a team on the margins of the post-season into them, and then does that team absolutely no good once in the post-season. :)

 

Nice to see Pinto drive him in, of course.

It's a trap, Bri.

 

We're pretty good at yelling at the coaching staff, too.
