Well here I am in Rochester working out my game so that I am ready to rejoin the Minneosta Twins! My rehab is going really well, I feel great and I am throwing the ball good and Coach Glynn says that it's only a matter of time before I get the Big Call and get the Twins back on track to the playoffs! I pitch tonight and I'm so pumped, I think I'm gonna have a good outing.

Kyle Lohse
v
P.J. Walters
So I hear Lohse is trying to join some elite exclusive club. I am okay with making him wait until next year.
Estrada (4-2, 4.94 ERA) v. Deduno (0-1, 10.13 ERA).
Go Twins!
Diamond (3-4, 4.96 ERA) vs. Figaro (0-0, 3.40 ERA)
i'm really every other week terrible at this game log thing, eh?
Anyway, the Twin's ace gets the start today against some guy who I'm told is making a spot start. Hopefully, that bodes well for the Twins offense.
I went to this game. Some observations:
1) Don't pitch to Carlos Gomez. I doubt these numbers will last but he is in beast mode right now.
2) There was only one person in Miller Park that thought Mauer didn't hit a home run.
3) According to the attendance, that was over 38,000 people.
4) Beyond four players at the top of the order, the Brewers are a very, very bad team.
5) That is when Braun is starting. Yuniesky Betancourt was batting cleanup today.
6) Any team that bats Yuniesky Betancourt cleanup is a very, very bad team.
Take Away Notion:
7) It's time for the Twins to crawl out of the basement by winning games against teams like the Brewers.
Mrs. Twayn: Turn on the TV, the game's on.
Twayn: No it isn't, the game's not on until tonight.
Mrs. Twayn: Turn on the TV, the game's on.
In other words, I spaced out the early game time.
The Twins won yesterday! That had been a while. Of course, I didn't see a single minute of it because of circumstance, but I suppose I'm glad it happened.
It's Pelfrey vs. Scherzer today, so let's temper our expectations even more than normal.
I'd add more here, but I just woke up after a very satisfying night's sleep for once and I really don't have time. Go Twins, and all that.
And so, the Twins pushed their losing streak to...
Wait.
They won?
Would you look at that...
The losing streak has reached double digits! Can the Twins press on toward the greater glory on a 30 game losing streak? Can P.J. Walters make some sort of difference against a Tigers lineup that looks like they're having way too much fun in this series? Will Doug Fister give up fewer hits today than Anibal Sanchez did last night? Will Bioshock Infinite prove to be too tempting for me to resist?
Tune in and see - or watch QVC or something.
