I thought bringing in Bill Hall was a mistake in the first place. We needed more fortification at shortstop than 2nd base. I have no idea what was the point of that. I know they wanted to hit more home runs, however Bill strikes out often. I think Keppinger and Sanchez leave us in pretty good shape.

So you are saying that instead of getting fortification at SS that we got fornicated at 2B?

I say these things because as soon as I say them, Bill Hall has an extremely hot game where he can do no wrong. As soon as I compliment Bill Hall, he will start playing like sh*t again. I was so impressed with the way that Michael Bourn played yesterday along with Pence, I went and voted for them in the all-star vote. I did what the president told me to do. You go and do the patriotic thing too, Coach, vote for them. You can do it 25 times.

Bill Hall made the error which probably lost this game. Plus he couldn't hit worth a crap. Release the guy. He is a hero one game and practically loses the game all by himself the next. Go back to where you came from.

I don't like this team at all.
Bringing Billy Hall made any sense.
We already had Keppinger, a good 2b who hits good in the 2nd spot.
ASStros is worse team in baseball.

The Twins have a worse record at this point anyway. I think things are looking bleak. I have been amazed at how well Aneury Rodriguez has pitched. I probably shouldn't say anything good because then he will turn bad. His last two games have been really respectable. I still don't believe we are getting the bullpen to turn around. They will crack soon. The Dodgers are not a good offensive team.

I just want people to notice how I jinx people. I mentioned Towles was playing well, he goes like 0 for 32. I will never make that mistake again. Aneury Rodriguez will be sure to crack up in his next start.

It is a coincidence that you brought up fornication. My son has been reading the Bible lately and that has been standing out to him, fornicated this, fornicated that. Keppinger is making Hall redundant. Hope that continues.

So who is high on your fornication list? Since Hall has been placed in the doghouse because of Keppinger, I think J.R. Towles has been hurting our offense lately. Carlos Lee continues to barely pull his weight. The pitching, it is hard to pick out a specific person right now, the coach is doing his wizardry right now, which is to make a poor pitching staff decent. Towles and Quintero make a good combination, but without Quintero, we are in trouble at catcher.
