Kyle Lohse might have started his last game for the Twins.The right-hander could have sealed his fate with the organization when he dented manager Ron Gardenhire's Metrodome office door, apparently with a bat, after an early departure from Tuesday night's start...

Lohse, who has had a strained relationship with the on-field and front-office staffs the past three years, was infuriated about being pulled from Tuesday's game against the Texas Rangers after allowing five runs in two innings. Soon after leaving the game, he went into the clubhouse and damaged Gardenhire's metal door, the manager said.

Lohse also broke the doorknob and dented the door on the clubhouse workers' locker room adjacent to Gardenhire's office. Later Tuesday, Lohse told reporters that Gardenhire and his coaching staff didn't "stand behind me and say, 'We've got your back.'

Last year, BG was not happy with Lohse, her erstwhile pitching boyfriend, for blaming everyone but himself for his struggles, but this year he seemed to have really matured, sacrificing pitches (and ego) as the coaching staff asked him to, to the benefit of his performance, and handling his periodic struggles with grace. But slamming a bat around the clubhouse: not cool. Saying they don't have your back when they stood by you through all those struggles: also not cool. Damaging yourself physically through your own tantrums, also not cool. It's okay to be emotional, but a) no smashing things b) you gotta know when to come back with your tail between your legs and say you're sorry. And and c) try not to hurt your finger next time.

You want to know who is cool? Joe Mays, Joe Mays is cool. BG heard him on the radio and he was just so graceful. He said he doesn't want to be in the bullpen but he's been terrible and he shouldn't be in the ro' if he's going to pitch like that. Also, he didn't smash anything. Joe Mays has earned BG's lifelong respect for the way he's handled his struggles this season. Also, nice job out of the bullpen yesterday, dude.
