Game #127: Gamethread #2

Who hasn’t dreamed of striking it rich like Alex Snelius? A few years ago, the semiretired truck mechanic from the southwest suburbs won one of the biggest individual windfalls in the history of the Illinois Lottery-a payout of $18.5 million after taxes. If you’re now imagining how much better your own life would be with the luck of Alex Snelius-the splendors you could afford, the tee shot you could perfect, the Trumpian swagger you could affect-then read on. His is a cautionary tale about the perils that can accompany great wealth-evidence of something we all know but sometimes have trouble remembering: money doesn’t buy happiness (though it sure can buy a lot of other stuff).

the child sex laws overseas are ridiculous.

in england, he got 4 months for having thousands of child porn images on his computer (he took it to be repaired without removing the pics…whoops). then he got 4 years and ended up service less for getting it on over and over with some pre-teens in vietnam.

scotty strikes again

Wise update
By Mark Gonzales, 2:48 p.m.

White Sox center fielder Dewayne Wise suffered a strain of the right adductor muscle and will be re-evaluated before Friday night’s game against Tampa Bay.

Wise suffered the injury while making a diving catch of Bryan LaHair’s drive to end the top of the fourth inning and limped off the field. Former White Sox left fielder Scott Podsednik suffered an injury in the same area, but the extent of Wise’s injury wasn’t known yet.

Damn, I thought this guy was out for the season...

Twins activated second baseman Alexi Casilla from the 15-day disabled list.
Casilla missed less than a month with a thumb injury that the Twins initially feared would knock him out of the entire season. He’ll resume starting at second base and hitting second in the lineup, making him an asset in AL-only leagues again. With Casilla back in the mix, the Twins figure to give Nick Punto plenty of action at shortstop, leaving Brendan Harris to platoon at third base and Adam Everett to sit on the bench.
