  • I have found women pretty consistent in their dislike for paragraphs like this one.

  • I wish you'd keep pictures of Uranus to yourself...   Yes, I am aware that isn't Uranus.

Speak Yoda, you do.

Have you ever tried to read Laurence Sterne? Or consider the King James Bible. It was written in common speech to be widely understood. That grammar is not ours. Language is an organism subject to principles of motion and change, I don't care what the French and their academy say.

 

Still two hours to kill before baseball...

Still, all are best experienced in the original Klingon.

The French are extremely obtuse and also rigid in terms of what is culturally French. I would assume that "their" language and its consistency across time would reflect that.

I snorted with laughter

French rap is the weirdest

We tried to go the Klingon Christmas the last year it was in MN, but a blizzard cancelled the show. Still one of the biggest disappointments of my life. I think it is only in Chicago now.

Is Kennys Vargas in the witness protection program?

I hear he's been working out at short, so we'll see.

From MLBTR:

 

Braves director of baseball operations Billy Ryan is one of the names under consideration in the Twins’ general manager search, USA Today’s Bob Nightengale reports (Twitter link).  Despite being in his mid-thirties, Ryan has an extensive resume in the game, working in the Commissioner’s office as well as in the front offices of the Rangers, Indians and Diamondbacks, including four seasons as Arizona’s assistant GM.  As Nightengale notes, Ryan is one of “several young executives” on the Twins’ radar as a replacement for former GM Terry Ryan (no relation).

Great first inning! 

our 25th man is starting yet again.  SHOCKED!

Kepler and Mauer co-players of the week.

What's the over/under on how many times we'll have to see that Kenny Chesney commercial?

Amazing to see a rookie work the count better than the teams veterans....

yup, happens all the time....

under where?

McHugh and Duffey seem very similar as pitchers. Both have good curve balls, fairly good heaters. 

Duffey has dropped his arm angle.....

Duffy featuring a change up today? Or are those curves that aren't biting?

Welcome Back, Plouffe!

His change up has a nice drop to it.  If his arm level remains down, his curve will be very flat.

Hitting the ball hard this inning!

They had a shift on for Polanco?

That does seem a bit odd. Polanco seems to hit the ball where it's pitched. 

Whoa, what a play by Polanco!!
