Why does it feel like a victory that the Yankees only scored 2 there??

I'm sick of this guy already. Only 3 more years I guess

Not touching that straight line.

I had my grand kids here for the last 3 days-didn't see any games, played with them, took them swimming, shot some fireworks, and today was finally looking forward to watching the Twins-yuk!

The only good thing about Nolasco pitching today is that I don't have to see him when the Twins come to Seattle this week.

Nah, he'll be fine for the rest of the contract. I just jinxed him today.

You ever get the curtains bought, Ashbury?

Nolasco is very Blackburn-like.

Standing O, he got someone out.

This is probably the more appropriate Rally Rhino for today's game.

I don't know about ash, but it's soon to be curtains for Nolasco.

Starting to miss Nick.

What channel are the Lynx on?

A tale of woe. Perhaps if the game starts to drag a bit I will elaborate.

Not soon enough.

I predict this is going to be a short game thread as people are going to find other things to do.

 

I am just going to blame this on RB for ditching his game thread duties. No other logical reason to foresee this happening.

Traded ellsbury in fantasy yesterday. It's my fault guys

Remember earlier this year when people were mocking the Yankees and praising the Twins.......remember when people thought signing Nolasco was a good move?

I feel the same way.

Well, at least Buxton is back on the field today. So that's something positive, I guess.

I was on board with the Nolasco signing. And he is still only 1/8 the way through the contract, but geez, what a disappointing start.

No, Senator, I do not recall any of that happening. And on the advice of my legal counsel, I'm not answering any more questions.

And we were happy to see Worley go.

How many games has Nolasco has where he didn't give up a run early?

 

I'll answer my own question, in his 18 outings only 3 times has he given up his first run in the 4th or later:

 

1) 2nd inning, 2 runs

2) 2nd inning, 2 runs

3) 5th inning, 1 run

4) 3rd inning, 2 runs

5) 2nd inning, 3 runs

6) 4th inning, 1 run

7) 3rd inning, 2 runs

8) 1st inning, 1 run

9) 4th inning, 1 run

10) 1st inning 2 runs

11) 3rd inning, 1 run

12) 2nd inning, 1 run

13) 1st inning, 3 runs

14) 1st inning, 1 run

15) 2nd inning, 2 runs

16) 1st inning, 2 runs

17) 2nd inning, 1 run

18) 1st inning, 2 runs

 

That's at least 1 run in the first in 6 out of the last 11 games, and at least 1 run in the 1st or 2nd in 9 of 11.

 

Why didn't we sign Kazmir instead of Nolasco and why did we give him a four year deal instead of Hughes?

Mr. Pohlad is going to have a hard time selling tickets after the all-star break. Glad I didn't spend good money on this game.......

ROBIN: Holy Rally Rhino, Batman! I can't believe the Bat Computer was wrong. It's going to take at least seven runs to win this game.

 

BATMAN: Never mind that, Robin. The Riddler wants to know why they build fences around cemeteries.

 

ROBIN: The fiend! Could it be because people are dying to get in?

 

BATMAN: Have I ever told you your shorts are too tight?

That's pretty easy to say now.
