I think Torii should probably wear this during the game tonight. Just for effect.

Imagine your best Sidney Greenstreet voice:

"The Mummy ... is not happy with you."

//"If you get hit in the face, what are you going to think about? 'I gotta get him,' " said Hunter. "When I took a couple steps, I had time to think about it. He didn't try to do that. Greinke came over, and we talked, and we settled our differences. I gave him a little joke. I wrapped my face up like I had plastic surgery, and he was pretty nervous about that. He's a good kid.//

I have to say. . . mummy!Torii kinda freaks me out.

Posted by: Spacey Stacey at April 27, 2007 02:37 PM

I have to agree, kinda scary!! Haha. But good stuff nonetheless.

Yeah, I'm definitely a little freaked out by Torii in that picture.

Have you all seen the Twins lineup?

Nick Punto, 3B
Luis Rodriguez, 2B
Mike Redmond, C
Michael Cuddyer, RF
Justin Morneau, 1B
Torii Hunter, CF
Josh Rabe, DH
Jason Kubel, LF
Jason Bartlett, SS

Yes, FEAR us Tigers :/
Why rest Mauer today? NBP was almost killed last night and as far as I know Mauer is doing well against lefties. And why is L-rod batting 2nd?
OK, got that off my chest, thanks.

This kinda reminds me of those things they put on your face if you play sports and have a broken nose. Creepy.

Did you click the Yahoo link and read the caption. A little goofy:

"...Hunter was hit by a pitch in the mouth from Kansas City's Zack Greinke ..."

Shouldn't that be "hit in the mouth by a pitch from KC's Z. Greinke..."?

I'm just saying.

Torii's impression of the Invisible Man. That's hilarious.

I see the rookie hazing ritual costume is coming together nicely.

Oh my!

I'm reminded of Once Upon A Time In Mexico.

Posted by: Donnalove at April 27, 2007 10:06 PM

Dr. Morneau will rebuild Sweetcheeks. Fret not, Batling faithful! :)

Reminds me of when I played Jonathon Brewster in "Arsenic and Old Lace", and the director inexplicably decided to replace all Boris Karloff references with Claude Raines, "because the makeup is easier"
