A four-game series with the Tigers kicks off tonight... Will the Twins be in front of the Tigers when it concludes? I don't know... only Seth Stohs with his inside connections knows for sure... The re

She should at least run it out. No point in standing on a bunt, even if it is a sac.

I think she voted for it before she was against it.

Yeah... That's how you get there. You don't swim to the Top... You gotta climb it. The path to the top of the food chain is a series of trees, step ladders and playground equipment.

I hesitate to ask, but what which food chain did you climb to the top of?

 

McDonalds? With the billions and billions served? I think they're like the Cardinals of the food chains, but with two arches... Just don't step in the special sauce.

 

I know they often had kiddy play areas, that's why i speculated as such...

 

Any recommendations so far, should anyone be passing through Michigan?

When I look at the Twins shopping list which should just be bull pen arms, I'm not seeing much out there.  Chapman...but we don't need a closer.  So, how about this - we go after a starting pitcher.  Whaaaaa?  We have too many of those already!  But what about moving Pelfrey to the BP?  Would it tick him off?  Sure.  Is he gone after this year anyway?  Probably.  Is he better than some of the current BP arms?  I think so.  I don't think we need to get into the bidding war for Cueto, but there are some other quality arms out there who might improve both our rotation and our pen in one shot.

Chapman is probably the best reliever in baseball. I'd say we could find some way to use him!

How about Mat Latos AND either AJ Ramos or Carter Capps in trade?  The Marlins are definitely sellers and payroll cutters- both would be big upgrades, plus renting latos at low current value, and overall not for the cost of mortgaging the farm.

Check out this picture of "Brian Dozier" in today's New York Times.

I guess, outside of NYC, Brian Dozier looks like just the next guy.

So much for the "paper of record".  Typification of NYC in their own reality bubble.

This is an internet message board.  We all live in our mom's basements, shower once a month if that, and weigh 300 pounds at a minimum.  You tell me.

 

Was told today by the doc that I need to lose weight.  I have to tell her she was wrong - I have 36 lbs. worth of eating to do.

Well, flying over at 35,000 feet, Fryer and Dozier do sort of look alike.

Hey! The let me into the upper floors occasionally, and even to talk to visitors!

 

Showering once a month is apparently on topic regarding meat eating too...

 

I'll follow it after watching the mickey mouse club and finishing listening to the agoraphobic cowboy, but you don't have wait for me: it's at something like skipshowersforbeef.com

 

(It came to me in an email today)
