June swoon goes to 10-17 after their 11-7 loss to the Reds. Hard to believe they are still 4 games over .500.

They are certainly working their way back to .500 though.

The Twins try to blow it late, but hold on for a win.

Lose yet another series. Good news is they called up Sano and sent Vargas to AA.

Pelfrey giving all his run support back, because Twins.

I guess Mauer didn't suck tonight. 4-5, HR, 2 r, 2 rbi.

Plouffe had a helluva night, too. HR short of the cycle.

What is more shocking is every hit was to the right side.

Our crappy 1-2 punch of Boyer/Thompson blows it again! Throw Fien out there and it's a guaranteed loss.

Should of never pulled Santana. He was at 93 pitches. Actually 89 since 4 of those were for an intentional walk. He was dialed in the entire game. Bad move by Mollie.

Glen Perkins your Twins All-Star.

Brian Dozier is in the final fan vote.

Mentioned this on Gopher Puck Live: That's right out of the KC Royals and TB Rays playbook:

No chance he wins. Too many big names from big cities...and the Royals will just stuff the ballot box for Moose anyway. He should have made it outright over that kid from Boston...the utility infielder.

Dozier not making the team is just mind boggling. Kipnis should be the starter but Dozier has been the top 2B in the majors over the last couple of years. He's been an absolute gem since we moved him from SS.

Previous years performance as an argument for this years all-star game always annoys me. It can be a career achievement in his last season , like A.J.
