I see you put baseball before nap time. Could it be you've become a Twins believer?

Reasons for optimism: The outfield play has been stellar. The infield has been solid with flashes of brilliance. The bullpen has been solid. Starting pitching has been solid. There is triple A depth that has MLB experience. It is not last year.

Soooo, I missed the game, game thread and all the fabulous comments. Great job, Van! Great win, Twins! And, what universe am I in? Mr. Santana pitched a 1 hit shutout? I didn't know Twins pitchers were allowed to do that!

Molitor misused Pressley. Perhaps. Maybe.

Little of A, little of B.

Get off my lawn!* *As a side note, yes, I do own a couple of M1 Garands.

I spent the money for direct tv extra inning because mlb.tv's streaming is crap this year. It's like a bad version of Max Headroom. Turns out, included with Direct TV Extra Innings is a subscription to mlb.tv. So, I get to cancel my mlb.tv subscription. Somehow, I'm okay with that.

I officially declare there are no old fogies on TD. Only curmudgeons.

One: The date cancel line will be great for sympathy pickups. Two: So, you were the backup date? Interesting. Three: 23 years left? Imagine the amount of debt you can run up...and then be like a few other cults and realize, after the DAY passes, that you're now saddled with more debt than you can ever repay.

I was watching that ski jump when that accident happened. Uggh.

I'm not sure "friend" and "image of Ron Davis" should be in the same sentence. Anyway, I gotta admit, that made me laugh. Good job.

By the way, who keeps an image of Ron Davis handy? I mean, seriously, that's some messed up, umm, stuff.

That's cold, man, really cold.

Along with leisure suits?

I was thinking more "maybe."

they are getting dirty, which is masking the red color.

I literally asked a pointed question pointlessly and not in a sheepish way. Sheesh.

I'm not sure I get the point of all the points, literally.

Okay, that was something I've not seen in...Chief, help me with this one, it's been so long since I've seen a catcher actually throw someone out followed by the pitcher striking out the last batter.

Mejia has already cut his ERA in half. Hopefully, this is trend.

I thought all CB posts were in the form of an update. Live and learn.

Ahem, and, since you mentioned scorching hot taeks...

Well, that certainly didn't work, darn it! Maybe this one?
