  • After time away from twitter & baseball news, had to check in for caravan! RT @BenRevere9: Finally got myself a hat http://t.co/LB1tbaUY #
  • Husband called me today to explain Fausto isn't Fausto and somehow this resulted in Slowey going to Cleveland. WEIRD. #
  • I've mostly ignored twitter & baseball news this offseason, but now I'm returning to catch up. Yay Winter Caravan! TwinsFest! Baseball! #

  • I'll miss Joe Nathan, but will cheer for him wherever he plays. Grateful the Twins had him for as long as they did. #

  • Well crap. Just heard about the Wilson Ramos kidnapping. Really really hope that he's okay and is returned home safely. Awful news. #
  • Ever since reading about the situation in Venezuela when Johan was with the Twins, I've worried a bit for players & families there. #
  • Whenever I check in to see if there's word on Wilson Ramos, I have to slog through free agent news & Penn State stuff. Gah. #

  • For some reason I can see Terry Francona with the Cardinals, but I suspect it's because their team colors are same as Boston's. #
  • Forget worries about who'll be on the team, I wanna know if we'll have to hear/see Coomer. I wish @fsnorth would make him go away. #

  • Wow. Hadn't been on twitter since end of series. Husband called me with Smith/Ryan news. I'd say Welcome Back, TR, but he's been around. #
  • Though I didn't see Ryan at Target Field this season nearly as much as the previous one. Guess that'll change now. (Yay!) #
  • Next Twins move: fire Gardy and hire Tom Kelly as interim manager? #

  • Well, that certainly was written in the stars, wasn't i? #
  • And now tomorrow (or at least by Monday), I'll put my DirecTV account on hold for a few months. (I really will.) #

  • I like baseball. #
  • I was rooting for whatever it took for us to have more baseball; I'm fine with either team winning. (Yay baseball!) #
  • Did I just see a notice that @DIRECTV is dropping @fsnorth ? Only reason I get @DIRECTV is to watch @fsnorth (really). #
  • Wish I could just watch Twins games on mlb.tv premium live, but due to blackouts it's not an option. Harrumph. #
  • Never thought there would be any reason to say this, but Jack Morris > Kyle Lohse. #
  • Nelson Cruz has a strained groin? Um, are they catching or something? Should I wonder what's up with Rangers & groins? (No!) #
  • I still like A.J. And he's surprisingly good on the broadcasts (but then with some of the folks he's working with, not hard to look good.) #
  • How I'd rank my fave Twins utility infielders during the years I've attended games: Al Newman, Ron Washington, Punto. #
  • Has been an enjoyable postseason. In recent years, I've usually not bothered to watch much after the Twins were knocked out. #
  • What this game needs is more discussion of groins. (Or not.) #
  • I actually didn't tune in last night 'til about the 8th inning. I hear the first innings were craptacular so I didn't miss much. #
  • My husband appears to be tired of my Deney Terrio jokes, but I never tire of making them. #dancefever #
  • Does anyone else find it odd to see Cqrdinals fans waving things kinda like homer hankies at a World Series? #
  • Key for Twins players to make it to World Series is to leave the team: Ortiz, Dougie M, AJ, Garza, Barlett, Punto, Lohse, et al. #
  • Is a new Grizzly Adams series being made and a bunch of relievers & Cardinals players are going to audition in the offseason? #beardtastic #
  • So close to seeing a Punto AB, but then denied. Harrumph. #
  • Thought Arthur Rhodes was with the Rangers, but he's with the Cardinals now. D'oh! Rhodes was actually playing back in 1991. #
  • Samsung may want to rethink that ad for their Galaxy because I assumed it was an iPhone ad due to similarity to old Apple commercials. #
  • If you're gonna rock the high socks, you might as well rock striped socks. #
  • The blinding speed of Lance Berkman! Thank goodness, he knows enough not to slide into first. (As most sane people do.) #
  • Looking back on this series, we'll always remember the beards, the rope necklaces, the groin pulls . . . plus some baseball stuff. #
  • The pitcher is wearing an orange and pink necklace on the mound. With My Little Pony attached to it or something. #
  • Walks will haunt! The scoreboard at the Dome told me so. Repeatedly. With nifty cheesy ghost graphic. #
  • Someone give Wash a hug. #
  • If a Texas player sported a rope necklace with a noose around a squirrel would they be asked to remove it? #
  • I wanna see a bearded reliever with a gaudy rope necklace go out there who has a groin pull (or pulls it during appearance). Trifecta! #
  • PUNTO! #
  • Little Nicky Punto, now batting in game 7 of the World Series. Huh. Never thought I'd see that. #
  • How come NFL on FOX gets robotic football player graphics, but @MLBONFOX doesn't get robotic baseball players? #
  • I was fine with David Ortiz, AJ, and even Dougie Defense getting world series rings, but Lohse and Punto? #
  • He throws one pitch and gets a K in game 7 of the World Series. #
  • Yay baseball! Good postseason! Congrats Cards! Nice to have two teams duke it out from the middle of the country. #
