Who gets the stove box and who gets the refrigerator box? Winter is almost here, you know.

Hey, Molitor had his one year honeymoon! Bring on the pitchforks!

I'm wondering if I'd be this irritated if the Twins wouldn't have brought up Kepler, let him hang around for a bit, then sent him down without really playing him. Am I off base in wondering if this team and organization is completely out of whack?

Brian, I'll defer to your knowledge of baseball, because it definitely exceeds mine by a wide margin. From my outsiders standpoint, this looks like terrible management all the way around. By the way, how many times have we heard how a pitcher, after being shelled, "looked sharp, great bullpen session a day later, ready to go.." only to get shelled the next outing?

Said it much better than I did.

But did he go 9 days between starts? How was he doing at AAA before being called up? No, this is not a good outing, but I cannot help but think Molitor put Meyer in a position where he was almost guaranteed to fail.

In what sane world do you bring in a kid who has shown flashes of briliance, yet struggles at times, and have him face one of the fiercest lineups in MLB?

I don't like the fact that Meyer is struggling but I'm really doubting Molitors ability to manage players. If Meyer is a reliever, he needs to be used like a reliever. If he's a starter, he needs to be used like a starter. 9 days without throwing in a game? Molitor looking for an excuse to ship Meyer back to AAA?

Ended well after starting poorly. That sawed off bat was a thing of beauty.

Okay, I'll bet that stung.

You disappoint me. You're younger than I thought.

See, Santana is an expert. He sort of got off to one side and watched the ball go out. These are the sorts of helpful hints players should be sharing with one another. Or, the veterans, because they've certainly a lot of experience with balls leaving the park.

Sano is going to hurt his neck watching balls fly out of the park in right field.

Okay, I take it back, 2 out hitting is great!!!

Most people don't have "Holy Chip Lohmiller" in their lexicon of sayings.

The real reason Sano shouldn't play right field: Can't risk setting off the New Madrid fault.

I see, Chief was on a bus with Mick's mother...

I think you've gone a bit far with that comparison. The Timberwolves are much closer to home.

Ah, your obsession with the Twins is explained.* *Of course I'm going to blast that hanging curve. It would be un-TwinsDaily of me not to do so.

FYI, the Microsoft Surface Pro is amazing.

As long as you made the Twins game, it's good, right?

Do you have your own library of bad jokes or have you found a Google Repository of bad jokes?

Cool, two out hits. Now, if the Twins could maybe do some 0 out hitting, things might go the right direction.

Yes?

1. Naked running: I'm not sure I understand why this is worth relating. Evidently, you must live in a weird neighborhood where such things are considered odd. 2. Car stereo stolen: Sure you didn't mistakenly get into the winter beater? Or, and I'm going with this option, the neighbors got tired of the constant blaring of Duran Duran and stole the stereo. 3. The fulminations about Fulmer were illuminating.
