Twins pitcher Kyle Lohse made news last week when he took a bat to the office door of manager Ron Gardenhire, out of frustration that he had been removed from that night's game. Not having been suspended or released as a result, Lohse will start tonight's game against Detroit.
So the lesson is, next time you're mad at your boss, take a bat to his door, and you won't be penalized in any way. Then again, with super youngsters Francisco Liriano and Scott Baker probably starting next year in "Minny"'s rotation, Lohse may find himself out of a job yet.
