I sat in left field last year during an Oakland game, and heckled Eric Byrnes. You can booo him and then claim you were yelling Boo-yrnes, as we did.

I cannot join you folks at the Dome (the commute from Raleigh can be a beast), but I can compliment you on the new logo. And I will! Neat logo; it oozes sass!

MK

Batgirl:

I love the new logo. MK is right: it screams sass.

Erubiel Durazo has thin skin, Batgirl. See if you can give him some jaw. Bradford does too. I always like telling him that his delivery is all gimmick. "All gimmick, Bradford! Why don't you get outta baseball and into used car sales? Get into marketting, Bradford, you'd be a wizard there!"

If there happens to be any bonafide Oakland fans there, can you give them some sass, please? I've never had an opportunity to pay the A's Brand back for the way they treat Twins fans out here in the Bay.

LOVE the logo, girl. LOVE the logo.

The new logo=awesome!

HAVE A GREAT TIME TONIGHT!!!!!!!

Remember, the Oakland GM sez that Byrnes plays like "His hair is on fire", so let us know if those curls are smokin'

Did you stay for the whole game? Did you figure out a way to do away with Guzzie? He is of great benefit to the opposition. How can an organization with this much talent start those two in the middle of the infield? Any foray deepinto the post season is unlikely with Guzzie and Luis as our dp combo, no matter where you hide them in the lineup. Cleveland is now 6 out. They had a horrible ex-Twin at ss, but he hit h.r.s., and they wisely moved him to third.

Dear al,

You would prefer, Jason Bartlett perhaps?

Hi, I'm new. Your blog is awesome. I like the BOD idea a lot. My parents used to tease me that Michael Cuddyer is my fiance. I met him once when the Twins Caravan stopped in Valley City, and my sister and I had our pictures taken and hold him how we ditched our finals to come meet him and Corey Koskie and Tony Oliva, and he laughed, and I felt like a little school girl meeting Elvis or something. So I'd like to claim Michael Cuddyer as my boyfriend. :)

Dear Ms. Lynsey,

Welcome, welcome! Michael Cuddyer is a good boyfriend to have. I believe you will be sharing him with BatReader Sandee, but boyfriends are made to be shared.

Sincerely,
Batgirl

This Baseball Boys' boyfriend: TC Bear, baby. Oh yeah.

Of course! I leave town for a weekend and the Bat-girl crew makes an appearance at the 'dome.

Damn family reunions. I'm never going to one again.

Dear Mr. Skorch,

We even looked for you!

Alas,
Batgirl

I believe your stinky-footed friend was correct. Lew would have had that one. Bat-girl, you are the definition of a double-standard. Morneau goofs, and "Dougie would had it." Stewart goofs, and "darn, nice try." The Saturday game was an even worse defensive play by Stewart. He let a blooper drop AT HIS FEET. I KNOW Lew would have had that one....but he was in RF to replace Jones...so I guess there was no way Lew would have been in LF anyway...but still. When are the fans gonna realize that Stewart is a terrible fielder? He possibly cost us the Friday game, and he cost us way too much stress in the Saturday game. Can you say defensive liability?

Dearest Boo,

Justin is our first baseman now and Batgirl will absolutely never say such a thing. She, in fact, thinks Justin is comporting himself quite admirably out there, and she is impressed. She does not expect him to be Dougie, but she does expect him to hit the @#@#@! out of the ball, and she is more than satisfied.

I thought you would be more excited about the BOD!

Sincerely,
Batgirl

I don't think I'm getting BOD often enough. It was kinda like I won it by default. What's a guy gotta do to win this thing at least once a month? I've tried the public service ads, and obviously that's not doing the trick. Now what? Kiss Stewart's ass?
