Im glad I will be able to watch tonights game, I watched maybe 20 pitches and I was down for the count. If the Twins can get to 5 games before the All Star Break that would be wonderful.
On a non-Twins related note, I thought this was a good article from Deadspin:
You Don't Forget Albert Pujols
12:10 PM
Francisco Liriano vs. Dan Haren
So, the Twins are well on their way to 158-4, the best record in franchise history. I wanted to take this game log to look at some recent signings by today's teams.

We're getting twice the production for a tenth of the contract. Is it really any wonder that the Twins are on pace to win 158 games?
Remodeled basement. Same half-baked taste.
