Caption Contest: The Pavano

[Parker Hageman]

Some of you may be aware that in addition to being a member of TwinsCentric, I also run an apparel company called DiamondCentric where we provide sports-themed t-shirts. This venture has mostly focused around the Twins but has since branched into other local sports teams. If you are a follower of ours on Facebook, you know that we often do Caption Contests, giving the winner who amuses us the most a free tee. I thought we'd bring the practice over to the Twins Daily community and rewards those of you who have visited our new site. So, for a free Duenslinger t-shirt, give us your best caption for this picture:**Winner will be chosen tomorrow (2/24 at 5 PM Twin Cities time)**

"If you think this ball makes my hands looks big, you should see them next to Barry Bonds's."

Decided to ditch the glove this year, you guys. Gonna just strike 'em all out. Bold move that lets 'em know you're a real man. Told the other guys about it to pump them up. They looked kind of confused, but you could tell they were impressed.

[Andrew Bryz-Gornia]

"Once I master this, I can will the ball into my teammates' gloves. Yeah, that'll improve our defense."

[Captain Kirkus]

"Dear Baby Jesus, let this ball strike my face and I become concussed, for then I shall not have play this season."

Eyes closed and hands flopping about: it's how Pavano catches and Drew Butera hits.

Carl Pavano loves playing with his balls when nobody is looking.

[JB (the Original)]

"Hey buddy, 'stache this somewhere for me, will ya?"

[jorgie5150]

"It's an illusion. Tricks are what whores do for money."

Master trainer Carl Pavano releases a baseball into the wild. The baseball should return to him unharmed after delivering a message to Pavano's mate, Joe Mauer.
