Rain seems to be letting up. At least according to the dog-o-meter.

Doh.

 

I reserved a ticket for the theatre tonight.

 

Means i will miss some of the game. Y'all take good care of it while i am gone, okay?

Well at least we can see its more of the same under Antony as far as the DL goes.   Milone gets shelled then goes on the DL.....   How are we so inept when it comes to the DL??     MILONE DOESNT MATTER.  are you hurt?   go on the f'ing DL  cya in 2 weeks   boom done.   we hamstring ourselves so hard...

 

Edit: I'm late to the party as usual.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Edit 2:  Bad timing on May to the DL.  Perfect opportunity.

Thank you.

I wish we would go back to not sucking in the first inning or two. Would really make things easier, imo.

Bert getting on Gibson for Plouffe's unearnie because he didn't "pick up his teammate" after the error.

 

We're glad Pluffie is back because of his glove, right?

Pluffie doing his best not to be traded.

I would be happy if the #NeverSano and #NoMorePlouffe camps can compromise on Polanco.

Make Third Base Again?

Yeah, that might be enough for me tonight. Gibson continues to get pelted and I feel like it's April again these last few days.

Pat Dean? You mean the guy who's struggling (5.56 ERA) against AAA batters? They couldn't have called up somebody like Pat Light or add some to the 40 man roster?

 

Great, now we have Dean and Albers in the bullpen. Who woulda thunk?

The Twins are to pitching velocity, what the octogenarian in the tan Buick Park Avenue is to I94.

Remember the Macco commercials?  Oh, Oh, better get Macco...Was it one c or two?...I can't remember.

Make Third Base Again?

# make Terry Tiffey great again.. Christ digging deep on Twins third basemen leaves a lot to be desired.

SANO!!

Plouffe's error really got under Gibson's skin. Next pitch cookie, then a 4 pitch walk. It's still eating away at him, and me.  HE'S GOTTA GO!!!!!

Sano makes me stick around a bit longer

We didn't cherish koskie nearly enough

The real party won't get started for another inning or two.  I think the Twins may 10 run these guys.

He was my sisters favorite/crush growing up love me some koskie, career cut short

I'm coming around to this view too. A pitcher who loses his composure like that has no place on my team. Trade Gibby.

Is there anything more meaningless than nfl preseason games?

 

That being said, THIS is the Vikings year. This one, not like those other ones we thought were the year.

 

In all seriousness, I would fly out to MN if they win the super bowl.

Thats why we trade for guys like Santiago. Cold blooded killer with men on base..

Logistics are complicated.

 

But if things work out, i probably will be driving around the midwest in the coming weeks.

 

Any advice y'all have regarding scratching the baseball itch?

If it's still August, you have tons of minor league ball - Good Seats Still Available!

 

Cedar Rapids is natural because of the Twins connection, but other choices exist. I am fond of third base side seating at Quad Cities:

Just make sure it's not flood season, as the outfield is a few feet above the river.

Dozier has had quite the turnaround season

I hope this hot streak last for a couple years as opposed to a couple months per usual for Dozier
