The Last Thunder Dump!

This is the last Thursday Thunder Dump. After looking at my news dumps as a weekly chore lately, Ive come to the conclusion that doing these posts are now... Well, Ill let British butter spokesperson, Johnny Rotten and the rest of the Pistols explain:

First, my sincere thanks to myjah for giving me the space to do TTDs all this time. They were a blast to do, but time has a way of eroding things and I feel like I need to move on from them. Dont worry though, wherever birds are attacking Denard Span, Ill be there. Whenever someone asks, Whats Manny Ramirez up to? Well, Ill be there. And wherever a Japanese angler fish mascot regurgitates its own skeleton, Ill be there too, just not on Thursday Thunder Dump.

If you didnt like TTD, some other Twins news link will replace it that youll like better. If you did like them, thanks and be happy - TTDs rotting corpse will nourish the blowflies and buckthorn brambles for years to come!

In case you havent heard, the Twins will play two games in San Juan, Puerto Rico against the Cleveland Indians early in the 2018 season on April 17-18. The Twins will be considered the home team. They have three players that are from the island; Jose Berrios, Kennys Vargas and Eddie Rosario. The Indians Francisco Lindor is from there too.

City Pages is reporting not everyone is treasuring their purple Purple Rain rain umbrella they got as a giveaway at a Twins game celebrating Prince last Saturday. Many are showing upon eBay, most are going for $150 but one college student was asking for $25,000. He must have gotten a really, really good one.

Cut4 has six hidden ballpark treasures and one is at Target Field. No, its not Carl Pohlads rumored secret vault of gold coins and art the Pohlads acquired from Depression era foreclosures. Its Sue Nelson, the organist at the Two Gingers Pub in Target Field. Mystery solved. Now, where the heck is Two Gingers Pub?

Royals Twitter account was showing off Drew Buteras hair flip a few days ago.

Luv ya Drew, but I think Doze did it better.

Cut4 has a video of former Twin and current Texas Ranger, Carlos Gomez wearing his new Superman shoes and hitting a home run against the Blue Jays on Tuesday. Is kryptonite on a baseball considered a foreign substance?
