“Total System Failure.” Those words spoken by owner Jim Pohlad are going to ring in our ears for a while. It’s an apt description for the 2016 Minnesota Twins thus far. Mistakes and failures large an

Tim Laudner assures us that the Twins won't lose all their remaining games.   So that's a load off.   Tim Laudner in studio is like a big, friendly, hairless mastiff,   but with less focus on sabermet

Catchers batting .158 should definitely hit monster homeruns, right?

Nolasco has a pretty good curve, but he doesn't vary the speed, rpm, slant or placement the way Duffey does. If you guess right and he doesn't bury it low, a decent hitter can hit it like a 5 iron.

What happened?

 

Dove for a ball and bent his glove hand wrist back on the ground. 

 

I think I've seen about 5 broken wrists that exact way over the years while either coaching or playing.

That's another story but I did meet my wife when she got all dolled up on a Saturday Night and showed up at a small bar we were playing in Donaldson, Minnesota. 

 

It was a gig that we didn't even get paid for... We just liked the owner and he let us drink for free so we packed everything into the corner of a small bar called the Bear's Den. 

 

It was fate and my wife often thinks about that night and the odds of us getting together at random like that. 

 

She has reached the point after nearly 26 years where she is now wondering OUT LOUD why she didn't go to a different bar.

I have been through Stephen, Donaldson, and Kennedy. Total population 63. :). She's right about one thing, that's was really some bad luck! Reminds me of them horror stories where the innocent young girl stops in a small town, and her life is never to be normal again! :)

I had to look up Donaldson ... it appears that the Bear's Den has been renamed Terminally Chill. Pretty good name, I say.
