Dunce gets his second loss. Liriano vs Lee tomorrow. Should be a good one.

GC you got anymore Twins autos to break us down with?

If I can get my scanner to cooperate, I was thinking about re-scanning a whole mess of Twins autos--pack-pulled and IP. Just to show off. But now I'm getting tired, and may work on it tomorrow.

No rush, always cool to see Twins pick up pictures in here or even stuff from past. A lot of older posts in here pics don't work anymore. I gotta get some pictures of my stuff one of these days.

I;m hoping to see Red Wings when come to Pawsox next week. Last time they came in July I just went for Neshek and he was easy to graph as usual and great to talk with. Went to Twins vs Red Sox at Fenway in may, but didn't even try graphing. Just wanted to soak in Fenway for the first time. Here is my Neshek haul from earlier this season.
Cards and BP home run ball I caught, so I had sweet spot it and add Go Twins inscription...

Man, the Rangers have been playing the Twins tough in this series. Well, they've been playing everybody tough this season, but it seems like they answer every run the Twins put up.

Will be nice to get out of Texas.
So does Valencia look to be anser now at third for the future and now. Can't believe he is still hitting in 330's and never hear much about him.

Yeah he has really impressed me this year, especially his defense which I guess there were a lot of questions about. I think he can be a really good hitter in the majors, but he is already 25-26 or something like that so I would like to see a few more HR's. I do think if he was hitting more out of the park there would be more mention of how well he is doing.

Valencia isn't a sexy pick for ROY, because he plays for the Twins! If he's still hitting .330 by October, maybe he'll get a whiff of attention by the East Coast media. He's quiet, does his job, is getting better at going the other way, and getting qualiy at-bats, and has only two errors so far. Why go back to Nick Punto? Sorry Nick, you've been Wally Pipp'ed.

Still can't get my scanner to work. (which size ball peen hammer should I use?) Really wanting to get some stuff scanned!

Twins need this one tonight. Hopefully Liriano has a strong start!

He's pitching on his regular schedule again so hopefully that helps. Both Liriano and Pavano struggled their last outing with the extra day of rest.

Figured I could show my mailday today. Nothing too big, but a couple nice Twins!

Nice Hicks! That would look great with an auto!

Yeah I'll have to decide what I want to do with Hicks at TwinsFest this year. I already have him on a OMLB, Bobblehead, and Ticket Stub. I will probably do a few of his cards that I have been gathering, including his Aflac.

No kidding. I have to say though that isn't the best one that I have gotten. My gf and I bought a blaster of A&G about a week or two ago and decided to split the packs since she has started in on the hobby (although very small). We made it a little competition to see who could get the coolest cards and I thought I had won when I pulled a Thome mini and then the next pack she pulled a no # mini Mauer...

In other news LETS GO TWINS! Nice to get some early offense against Lee tonight.

Got the 2010 Topps Twins Set Glen Perkins today, now I need last year's 2 versions and this year's Target Field version before I pursue more team setters.

(Thanks TGutta)

No problem. I will let you know if I pick up the team set with the Target Field stamp. I have been planning on picking up one while I can to grab the Span.

I get the Red 1/1 next week! I have confirmation that is going to be sent tomorrow, so that's good!

(there is a middle-man involved, that's why. He is shipping it to me)
