It appears that Bartolo Colon will be unavailable to pitch for Oakland today. More information as it becomes available. Before you even attempt it: everyone has already made the "tested positive for cupcakes" joke. Don't bother.
HEAVERS:
Third time's the charm, right?
Milone hasn't won in over a month. He throws with his left hand. He spells "Malone" wrong.

NOTES:
- Carl Pavano is done for the season with a bruised humerus bone. (Twins medical staff joke goes here #1)
- Denard Span did not take an MRI yesterday due to his claustrophobia. (Twins medical staff joke goes here #2) Assuming he doesn't play today, this will be his 10th missed game without going on the DL, and the 10th game in a row where the Twins were short-handed for no good goddamn reason.
Enjoy the game, everybody.
