Twins have scored one run in each of the first three games of the series and have Hughes, Tolbert and Butera at the bottom of the lineup. Don't lose time away from work for this one, citizens. Mauer has a stiff neck and Valencia had wisdom teeth removed, but Cuddyer is back in there after the MRI came back clear. Liriano vs. Jo-Jo Reyes.

i dunno. my early impression is this is what simon and garfunkel might have sounded like in their early years if they were swedish sisters (hell, they kind of look like simon and garfunkel if they were swedish sisters).

Oy, this has been one turd sandwich of a season, and now DJ Cuddles looks to be headed to the DL. Figures. My mother always told me that if I couldn't say something nice then I shouldn't say anything at all.

Brian Wheat – Looking Alive
One of my best friends recently moved to Minneapolis. In addition to his duties at a professional teacher of high school biology, he also plays songs. Once he finally sets up some gigs at Minneapolis you had better believe at least a couple of you are going to go. Or I am going to guilt the heck out of you in hopes of making you attend.

Game 128 – Orioles 8, Twins 1
Another Twins game, another brutal loss. Tonight they were murdered by accused murderer manslaughterer Alfredo Simon and the mighty 49-77 Orioles. JJ Hardy reminded us again how stupid that trade was. I imagine the rest of the season will continue to be like watching a dog take a dump in your lawn in slow motion. Only 34 more games to go, then we can start counting down towards Spring Training and the beginning of next season when the Twins will finally be at .500 again.
Final Score: Bodymore Orioles 8, Minnesota Twins 1.

Ty Segall – Goodbye Bread
while we're on the subject of requests, bootsy asked us to play one a little while back. i told him to post it his damn self, but i guess he's shy, or summthin... in his words:
I'm digging on Goodbye Bread, the new record by Ty Segall. Here's the title track, first as rocking electric version (static imagery, but killer sound)

and then solo in a bathroom [ed: after the jump].
