Deduno takes on Fister. This game is sort of a 'must win' for the Tigres, so i'd love to see them lose it. We'kre coming to the bitter end here. It's tremendously unlikely that the Hammer is going to gain another spot on th countup, so about the only things we have left are Mauer's hopeful batting title, and the chance to spoil other teams' playoff chances.

We would also like to wish a happy birthday to Spookymilk’s oldest daughter.
The Twins need one more win in the remaining twelve games in order to match last year's win total. They could top 70 wins if they actually finish well, but that's just not going to happen.
My mom was at my house yesterday when I got home to celebrate Skim's birthday and hang out for a few days. Kudos to the Milkmaid, who's generally the worst secret-keeper alive.

So, I finally put up one of my remixes of Arvo Pärt's "Magnificat" on Soundcloud. I did this a while ago, using really simple technology on purpose. It's really more a sketch than anything. I dig it anyways. Hoping Daneeka's Ghost or Nibbish digs it.
Otherwise, what's on your players today, fine folk?
