June 21, 2012: Crunch Time
Now's about the time each year that I say "Uh-oh, only single digit days until The Milkmaid's birthday and I don't know what to get her."
Um...what should I get her?

So, there is a game tonight. I predict a Jamey Carroll home run. And a Twins. win.
Minor Details: June 19
The only wins come in rookie leagues. The higher-level teams were blown out early. A big game for Dereck Rodriguez.

June 20, 2012: The Heat
Not actual heat. The basketball team. Three close, exciting games later, they're about to be rewarded for The Decision. It makes all those "Was this a failed experiment before it even began?" conversations on 4ltr two weeks ago seem a little pointless.

Man, I listened to a lot of Verve in the mid 2000's.

In the weeks approaching the trading deadline I am going to take a look at negotiations that Terry Ryan will be taking part in an attempt to make the Twins better for the future. This week, Terry Ryan makes a stop in Vegas.
Next week: Trade talks heat up and Terry Ryan looks for shop credit.
