Though he was off by a day or two, bS' comment led me to realize we never gave proper recognition at the time (he passed away just before Christmas). We will rectify that now (as well as test out a little feature).

Loading... With all the parades today, we'll play one more for the pageantry.
One quick thought: I'm curious of how much of a coincidence it was that this decision came down on the eve of Pride.

I've been around here awhile, and have also been connected with citizens over other social platforms. I think I can safely say that I'm not very well known for many, if any, forms of activism.
This has been a pretty crazy week. Obviously locally, but the wider world has seen plenty of turmoil; much, much worse, actually.
On all these topics, I have fairly strong opinions, but as a good Minnesotan, I mostly keep them to myself. This time (and I apologize if this is counter to your own tenets), I will allow myself a little grandstanding.
This small rock blindly pitching headlong through the cosmos is fragile enough. With all the war and blood and hate on top of that which we subject ourselves to, I just don't see any reason to try to counteract anything that allows more love into this world. Institutions may tremble, but, in any form it comes in, #LoveWins.

(Sorry, this is a far too obvious choice, but, seriously, Queen is frickin awesome (and the Painter already played one of the best vids out there))

Also, to whomever is fucking with the color pitch: stop it.

From the 1947 film "Carnegie Hall", with Fritz Reiner conducting.

The solstice was yesterday. It's officially summer. Every day will be shorter from here. Good luck with that!

The Twins head back out on the road after a 1-5 homestand that held such comical moments as the only 3-triple, 1-run inning in the expansion era. After an expectation defying May, June has tempered the excitement of the optimists and confirmed the expectations of the pessimists. After the first real spark of interest in their team in years, it was enough to cause the front office to consider something desperate!
Okay, well, maybe not that dramatic. The latest top prospect to get the call, Byron Buxton joined the team yesterday and played a role, if not a significant or flashy one. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I don't believe Buxton was setting any worlds on fire in AA so far this year. Still, at this point, I'm fine with a little shake up. I'm assuming the job is his to lose so far, so lets hope he sticks for awhile.
The Twins open a mini-interleague series in Budweiser territory tonight. This will be Minnesota's first visit to the Mound City since 2009. May was the tough luck loser last time and has been pitching well of late. He'll take on a tough assignment tonight against the league's best team. Lackey's last start was not a good, and he looks to rebound from a 10-run drubbing.
After his iijection and suspensiion, Hunter will join the rejoin the team today, Also, a happy birthday to to Plouffe! and Nunez. Hopefully they can spread a little birthday love around.
