I'm at work too but also sitting on my deck, having a beer, and listened to the whole Twins game. You have to learn to multi-task. /here's hoping I don't break your Twitter, FB, eBay, Amazon, Yahoo!, LinkedIn, Spotify, or a half dozen other sites you use

Nice to see Vargas deliver a boom daddy to the chin

A gap in the Twins analytic department
http://extras.mnginteractive.com/live/media/site569/2013/0630/20130630__WayneHattaway_BigFella_300.jpg The entire Twins analytic department, pictured above, disagrees. Semi-related, I loaded baseball-reference stats from1871-present into one of my Hadoop clusters a week or so ago and have been doing some bang-for-the-buck/moneyball analysis on it - some interesting finds so far, but I hadn't thought to add the pitchFX stuff in; will start working on that tonight when I get back to msp.

I didn't unfriend you on FB, jackass.

May as well expand it - Minnesota Twins fire or reassign all but one coach
http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_21699041/minnesota-twins-shake-up-coaching-staff I disagree with both the Stelmaszek and White moves, but anything that gets Ullger and Vavra further away from the on field team is ok by me. It does make one wonder if Gardy is on thin ice...

Wall Street Journal: How biased are your announcers?
Agree, other than Hawk Harrelson who is every bit as much of a mindless homer. I do everything possible to avoid hearing either of them. Ever. The only tiebreaker may be that Allen thinks he's smart, funny, and relevant. I really can't decide who is a more annoying waste of airtime.

Satisfied? More importantly, are you?

Proposed Twins Daily Comment Policy - Feedback Desired
If we ever moderate you for anything, just consider it a pre-emptive strike. You already did, I was just trying to figure out why. That said, I've already spent too much of my weekend wondering why - it is what it is, I guess.

Drink more. That always helps me think. No drinks, but I'm on moderation now. What did I say that violated the new 725 posting rules? I admit to not reading them.

Another move: Walrop up, Carson down
I can hit as well as Butera. Think about that.

2009 draft Mike Trout
There's also a good chance that, had Trout been drafted by the Twins, he'd have been taught to hit "the Twins way" and not be anywhere near his current numbers. See Arias, David.

Diamond has a 2.95 ERA over 19 starts. Leave him out of your "awful" opinion and "filler Ds" cuteness.

I will bounce you out of here faster than a Frogtown "lady" at church on Easter if you keep it up, mister. Your quote, I'm still trying to figure out what it means...

The Denard Span Non-DL Watch
More of the Twins MO... 1) Why carry 3 catchers? Just in case. 2) Why carry 13 pitchers? Just in case. 3) Why not put Span on the DL so you can get one goddamned bat on the bench, just in case? Just in case. It's annoying, and embarrassing.

Pavano Done
This is true. And also annoying, and beyond "getting to be" a pattern. It never made the news, but when Mauer wrecked his knee as a rookie, the Twins med staff completely botched his rehab too. The Mauers didn't want to make it public for their own (I'm sure good) reasons. I only know this because one of my sisters is friends w/Theresa, and one of my nephews (one of her kids) is friends/played b-ball with Joe at Cretin... The Twins, IMO, really need to reevaluate their entire med staff...

The Nishioka Story
So far only one video tribute. Concentrate on that (unless you suck at making videos).

The Nishioka Story
That's Sofa King awesome.

Pavano's rehab start
*ding ding ding* We have a winner, Bob!
-
Can't we just enjoy what we have?
Nishioka - no pointing out errors, lack of hits, but you can mention he's leading the league in Camel Bucks Blackburn - no pointing out any stats whatsoever Pavano - no pointing out porn 'stache, bagdhad body Butera - no mentioning at all allowed

Can't we just enjoy what we have?
I don't doubt they can. Does that mean you think a .500 2013 season could/should/would be considered a success then? Sounds a little like "with the grace o god and the creek don't rise, we'll be in that double-wide by June!"
