The Letter to Mauer Is Sent

On October 27th, we invited you to sign your name to a letter to Joe Mauer. Since we indicated that the letter – asking Joe to stay with the Twins when they offer him a contract extension this offseason – would be sent on this very day, we wanted to provide incontrovertible visual proof that we had indeed sent the letter. Below, you will find images of this letter.

First, here I am holding the printed version of the Joe Mauer letter…

Next, this is myself and the Joe Mauer letter. Note that the additional step of folding the document and placing it inside an envelope addressed to Joe has now been taken…

After that last picture was taken, I absconded with the letter to the post office box marked ‘outgoing mail’ in the ground level of my residence. We do not have visual proof that the last step took place, but my distinct hope is that you will trust my earnest word that it was so accomplished!

Thanks to those of you who signed the letter to Joe! If we get any kind of response from Joe or the Twins we will not rest afore those tidings have been proffered unto you. Amen.
