I didn't even realize the Twins were no longer a wild card team anymore. I just assumed they were since everyone gets a trophy.

You are correct. One great month, one mediocre month and one terrifically horrible month does not a playoff team make...not even these days

Pitching is all about Adcocking and Subtractcocking, just ask Bert.

'More-pitchers-swinging-the-bat' fun as the Twins travel from Milwaukee to Cincinnati.   The Reds combination of speed and power make them a fun team to watch. So lets watch them. Hopefully watch them

I'm wondering why it feels with the opposing team having bases loaded-nobody out, the over/under feels like about 5 runs.  While with our offense, it feels like 1.  Maybe I'm just a pessimist pretty much all the time.

Confidence. The twins have completely lost theirs.

Took a while, but i guess it worked.

 

(Perhaps now's the time to start for the bottom of the second?)

 

3-0 going into 2nd. Reds are up.

 

CBU.

 

Don't worry, Pelfrey, we gots yer back!

Runners at the corners, no one out. Look familiar?

 

(Not too much of a surprise. Reds had some good fielding to retire the Twins in the first, particularly the Hamilton snag of a sinking liner off Mauer's bat)

Well, we got one.  Just goes to show, tho, unless we're playing the White Sox, who start throwing the ball all over the yard, we can't score a lotta runs these daze...

Yeah...who didn't see that coming?

I'm glad Plouffe doubled there because I was about to say... I think Plouffe should have at least left his feet on the RBI Barnhart grounder.

 

Probably wouldn't have got it but with a runner on third you gotta at least try.

 

I couldn't tell if Pelfrey was staring in Plouffes direction or just staring in a random direction afterwards.

 

Bottom line... I really want an Arenado or Lawrie at the hot corner. Plouffe has been better... More engaged the past couple of years but that effort reminded me of when I was pretty disappointed in him before that.

It's the Eyes... If you mess with eyes it freaks people out.

Let's take Kim... Give her Eyes Back and place a 70's Bruce Jenner's head in a San Diego Chicken Body next to her.

That and anything Kardashian … I mean, cmon Bark … it's a respectable baseball game and you throw a Kardashian out there? For shame!

Well, my monthly MLB.TV subscription renews this Friday.  I don't want to miss Ervin Santana's debut, but I also don't want to spend any money for a team on their way down to the cellar.

Can't you purchase by the game? So you could buy Santana's debut game of the season.
