Hopefully the Twins can forget the Pittsburgh series and start getting back on the right track this weekend.

Shouldn't be a problem. We just gotta find a way to pitch around the first 5 guys in the lineup.

Looking like another series loss to me. 1-2.

I am hoping that Plouffe can get a homer against Homer.

Count me in on having that hope as well!

Plenty of sink. Into the seats.

Blackburn. 'nuff said.

Make it sink, Blackie. Make it sink.

#%##% Blackburn!!!!!!!!

Setting the over under of blackie earned runs at 5.5. I'll take over.

Took him only two batters to balloon his putrid 7.5 ERA

Well, you can't expect to shut down Chris ".264/.304/.348" Heisey.

Do Morneau and Votto talk Canadian to each other on the field?

At least Plouffe got a hit. Now if only Blackburn could settle down...

What Do Morneau and Votto talk Canadian to each other on the field about?

 

FIFY.

My message is too short? What the?

At least the Twins avoid a shutout. Now we can only pray that Blackburn can last 5 innings.

One run per inning is better than nothing. It will be great if Blackburn can hold the fort for a few more innings.

Sigh. It would be so nice to see Blackburn hold a lead for more than an inning.

Damn. That sucked.

Ouch.

 

Pig, what's with the 10 character minimum?

Is there a major league pitcher with worse stuff than Nick Blackburn? It's an honest question. A "sinker" that doesn't sink. That seems to be his entire arsenal.

Liriano.

 

Pig fix the damn ten character crap.

I hope Terry Ryan has a plan to fix this starting rotation...wow, it really stinks....

Probably, just given the law of averages (30 teams x 12 pitchers = 360 pitchers), but I can appreciate the sentiment. Another disappointing night from Blackie.

Maybe the Twins should just pray for rain every day.

Does Plouffe have a grand slam yet?

Well poop. Plouffe sucks again.

Does Plouffe have a grand slam yet?

I don't think so, and he just blew a perfect opportunity.
