June 11, 201610 yr All those who believe in psychokinesis - raise my hand. I know Emo Philips doesn't pitch for the Twins, but he said it better. "How many people here have telekenetic powers? Raise my hand." And what the heck, why don't we just sign Emo Philips? He can't possibly make this team any worse, and in terms of marketing, this would be a genius move.
June 11, 201610 yr You mean like skill set, or... http://i3.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/006/026/futuramafry.jpg ... identity theft? PS That one's for you RB. It's been at least a week since my last Frye meme, and I'm sure you've been waiting anxiously: http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/doctors-next-door/Dog%20napping%20on%20keyboard.jpg Brian's editor?
June 11, 201610 yr Heh... Papi goes the other way, gets a soft single to left. So, all that Twins Way coaching was not lost on him after all!
June 11, 201610 yr Ortiz is batting? I thought he retired tonight.He took it to left center as a final middle finger to TR, too.

June 11, 201610 yr Man seeing that clip from the '06 team...."dont know what ya got til it's go-ooone"Poison "I won't forget you" or Skid Row "I remember you"
June 11, 201610 yr Dickbert complaining about Tonkin throwing so many pitches. To which I ask...is there a state law, or something, mandating he stay in there? Or could he get guys out?
June 11, 201610 yr So, DickBert ragging on the starting staff. I've got to harken back to the earlier comment about what ML free agent starter would WANT to come here, with such horrid defense, putrid offense, and those pukey red jerseys?

June 11, 201610 yr So, if the Twins offered Boston any five players off the Minnesota 25 man, for free, with the stipulation it had to be five and they had to stay on Boston's 25 man, would Boston take the offer?
June 11, 201610 yr Just caught up after flying back home and going to a brewery. Yes, I like cider. Yes, this team sucks. Yes, apparently defense matters. Yes, I am glad I cannot see this team.
June 11, 201610 yr Ahhh... LOOSAH! But, if the game were at all competitive, I wouldn't have taken the time to put together this B'fast of Champions! Blueberry cakes, crispy bacon, syrup from my Canuck friend, and "coffee." Nom nom nom.... Edited June 11, 201610 yr by David HK
June 11, 201610 yr Do we have a team ophthalmologist?Most likely a Proctologist is called for, to cure this case of cranio-rectal inversion.

June 11, 201610 yr So I headed over to Twinkie Town to check out their take, as I sometimes do. This made me laugh: (headline) J T Chargois Get the Call Kyle Gibson is back too.

June 11, 201610 yr Things we pay Paul Molitor to think about, part eleventy million: Don't play Park at first base if he's never faced a knuckleballer. Play him at DH like you usually do. If he turns out to be helpless at the plate, you can easily sub him out if he is DH. You cannot easily substitute him if he is in the field, especially if your other first baseman is the DH (you will lose your DH, etc). Or better yet, bench him. #ThingsforNextYear

June 11, 201610 yr Concur. Except for the hashtag. #ThingsforLASTyearandTHISyeartooIt was a minor point and it's not likely there will be a situation to PH him even if he's DH, but in my opinion playing him at first was the third best option out of the three options tonight. #sigh
