7 shutout innings?

 

pfft...what's his xFIP?

somebody logging into propeller head dot come and going directly to check Santana's FB:GB ratio might never guess the Twins are winning

 

 

EDIT: not intended as a dig at Sabermetrics

    If the Twins have a second half similar to their excellent 49-40 first half, they will..   finish 98-80.

  • I'll take it. Because that means they at least played in the World Series! MATH!

    Nice of Plouffe-see to wait till after Halsey's bedtime to hit the grand slam.  Would've ruined Halsey's night.

Right on queue - strikeout!

 

That slider is nasty.

There seem to be a lot of people trying to take your job tonight.  (Braum's Peanut Butter Cup for me. No maple syrup required.)

This Zobrist guy reminds me of Ben Zobrith.  Used to play for the Rays.

That's ok its an unpaid gig. 

 

Brauns is OKC? Is that beef based ice cream down there?

Good game by Santana.  More of those to come.

Good to see that from Santana tonight

Attaboy Brian.

 

5 zip after 8, Santana with 7.67 shutout innings.

Do home plate umpires ever get concussions?

 

Do you mean like, during the game?    'Cause if you've ever seen them in their natural habitat after the game, there's cause for concern there too.

In all seriousness, McDonald's ice cream is quite good, IMO.

My sister owns and operates a DQ, I wouldn't tell her this but the McFlurry blows the doors off a Blizzard.

 

 

I wouldn't tell her because I'd lose my free ice cream privileges. I'd like to though because she's a Jays fan.

A little something to put in your will?

I was thinking more on my death bed, you know all dramatic and whispered and all. Something like "the Blue Jays suck......and so do Blizzards".

Where do i get one of those?

Suzuki proving that small catchers can be glacially slow too.

 

A's 3b had time to bobble ball, bat it like a kitten with yarn, make and eat a turkey and avocado sandwich, check his email, and get a good start on an Eckersley 'stache before his throw, and it was still just a step behind the Zukester, albeit in the wrong zip code.

 

Seeing him gather himself for the trip to second on the throwing error was like watching a wagon train prepare to move out.

 

And yes, maybe that's overly negative at the end of a nice win, but it's taking my mind off of Duensing's pitching.

Edited by LaBombo

Duensing has looked solid as of late, I wouldn't trust him in a 3-2 game in the 8th or prob even the 7th, but him keeping this up somehow would go a long ways in to help stabilizing the middle relief. With Rourke up and May in the pen, I am of the mind that getting a solid and reliable 8th inning guy like Benoit would make me feel pretty damn good about this pen.

Maple syrup idea shows real promise.

 

Too lazy to deal with coffee.

 

There were plenty o' other good ideas (especially more ice cream and floats)

 

Personally i'm a sucker for caramel/butterscotch, though i think i'm out, which is why i was askin'...

 

Never could figured out what distinguished sprinkles from jimmies, and i'm not sure i have either either...

 

Sorry i nodded off for a moment. The grand slam jarred me awake briefly, though it took me a while to realize the bases were loaded.

 

Thanks all!
