NoPepper.net: … Some days, it rains.

The Big Baby Jesus has risen, and will catch Friday against, who else, the Padres.

Minnesota was 4-6 when Mauer went on the DL. They proceeded to drop nearly 20 games under before rallying lately to close within a double in the gap of a respectable record. And, of course, we finally got around to having a desperately needed national dialogue about bilateral fucking leg weakness. And in case no one noticed — and judging by traffic, you haven’t — the Twins are the hottest team in baseball, right now, after Teh Pavstache went the distance against the Pale Hose last night.

Fifty-six games later, the Twins get their catcher back.

Hallowed be his name.
