Hurrah for meaningless games at the trading deadline!
Jamey Carrol takes a headshot for the team.
old man stolen base!
Dazzle Man on the record for not like the Butera trade. Seriously.
Sheesh.
does he think Butera is better than Mauer? or even Herrmann?
I kind of blacked out after he said that. Can't be sure about the why.
I suspect your blackout had something to do with beer.
Correia seems to have found the wall awfully early tonight.
I have a good book in the wings; you have a short leash to try and keep me here, Twins.

HERRMANN!
MLS All-Star game is about to start. So there's that.
what channel?
It's supposed to be on ESPN2, but it appears they have some youth baseball tourney that's running over. It will be on ESPNEWS and then ESPN2 when that ends.
why does MLS even bother with ESPN?
I don't know, but they are pretty notorious for programming these types of live events back to back that almost sure to run over.
its awful during the college basketball season.
I just wonder (outside of a pittance of money) what the MLS gets out of being with ESPN? the games are on 'the mothership', ESPN never promotes the games they show, rarely do you see an MLS highlight package on SportsCenter.
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if all the games go to NBCSN soon.
to be honest, when I think MLS, I think NBCSN
Oh hey, that was good.
YDNROCH!
Based on Kevin Correia's initials, I'm pegging him as a double-agent.
'FOX Sports 1 Gamebreak'
NewsCorp going all in on this new sports channel.
Bremer "Gordo'd" another routine Mauer flyball.
I should've known that with a man in scoring position with nobody out was bad news.
there are a lot of ball the go past a diving Carroll.
get healthy soon Brian Dozier.
Twins going to need some runs soon.
Trevor Plouffe is 4-36 (.111) 2 walks, 13 K since the All Star break
now 4-37
good time for that double play
FLORIMONSTER!
FLORIMONSTER!!!!!!!
Florimooooooooon!
Mashed that one.
All Florimon has to do is crank 4 more to be the Twins home run leader.
one more and he is tied with Morneau and Mauer
this Lough guy is the Nick Franklin of the Royals
First and Second, nobody out. I've seen how this ends...
I wish Herrmann was at the plate and not Doumit.
and then he gets a hit!
I wish Herrmann was at the plate and not Plouffe
all right, R(s)BItime!
TWINS BASEBALL!!
TWINS BASEBALL!!
Florimon is itching to move further up the home run charts. I can feel it.
I'm a little worried about a double play here. SEND HIM!!!!!
done.
Notaswing.
Two strikes on swings that were not swings. F this S.
well, Trader swung on that one.
I said yesterday I was having a hard time disliking Clete. He's making it easier on me tonight.
Yeah, that was awesome.
So, we're back to sucking the chrome off a trailer hitch, I guess.
On the bright side, I had a double-double, animal style, fries, and a chocolate shake for dinner.
My first In-N-Out meal was my last day in California. I'd really like to eat it again.
Those are good burgers, Walter.
We hit Trader Joe's today - grilled chicken, big green salad, Tuscan cantaloupe and iced tea. And a mixed sixer chilling in the fridge; Two Hearted Ale, Hofbrau Bock, Sierra Nevada Tumbler, JosephsBrau Vienna Lager, Stockyard Oatmeal Stout and a Fat Tire.
that's a nice mix, Twayn. The TJs beers are surprisingly good. And Bell's....
... is one of the best evah? Youbetcha.
Boy, we sure are skewing/screwing the run expectancy charts tonight.
Man muscles would be nice here.
Twins baseball.
Pussy single + error hitter!
Would be nice if Mountie put this thing to bed.
Bum(mer).
Feral Puppies and Howitzers.
Sigh.
Well, that stank.
Sure would be nice to get Joe some help out there.
Time to get this team to the shop, the clutch has gone out.
A think we need to give the boys a pass on this one. Clearly, they were still reeling from the shock of the Drew Butera trade, and understandably so. One can hear them asking, "But who's going to be our fourth catcher now? Is Corky Miller available?" It's natural that it would take them a day to recover. So, we'll just have to settle for 103-59!
Correia vs. Guthrie. A matchup for the ages.
