Article: Game Thread: Twins v Indidans, 4/25 @ 7:10pm CT

[Blake]

 

I was hoping the Twins would break out some purple jerseys tonight

I swear, whoever came up with the red jersey idea knew the Twins were "dead men walking" this year.

 

Either that, or those uniforms need to be burned with fire until turned to ash and the ashes scattered to the four winds.

Anybody mention how our uniforms suck again tonight? Purple ... anything but RED.

first time through 1 run on 3 hits, 3 K

"We're gonna Win Twins... We're gonna Score... We're Gonna Win Twins... Watch that Baseball Soar" 

 

"Knock out a Home Run... Shout a hip hoo-ray... Cheer for the Minnesota Twins Today"

 

 

 

 

It's really a great song... It has all the elements of a hit.  

Well, the Twins could certainly use a hit. Any hit.

How can one calculate WAR for a team as terrible as this?

I've been dreaming about the Robin's Egg Blue and bringing those back

 

But Yeah... Why Red? Why not Purple? 

 

We are a Purple Town... We could have done a Purple Alternate Jersey instead

That seems high... 10/169 maybe... perhaps Dick has had too much to drink already.

how much would it take to watch 891 games like this?

No, that's the ratio of pitches in the dirt that they have stopped.

[Craig Arko]

Better living through nose oil. Thanks, Bert.

[Aggies7]

One thing we really need to have tonight is a short start by milone

Why do you think negative numbers were invented?

[Aggies7]

Lol dick thought they could turn 3 there

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Lol dick thought they could turn 3 there

Danny said the same

[Aggies7]

I can't imagine anyone other than Mauer and Nunez being positive at this point

[DiscGolfer]

From a marketing standpoint just think how many purple jerseys they could sell.

Well... if that's the way it works... 

 

Ash... Can you scatter them to the four winds?

 

It appears you are up. 

[Aggies7]

Pretty simply. It's Wins Above Replacement, i.e. a team made up entirely of replacement-level players. Therefore: 0.

Heh heh, it was sarcasm guys

[DiscGolfer]

did you see Chicago's triple play?  anything can happen

[Puckett34]

Are imaginary numbers for potential?

[Squirrel]

Just remember to use them for good instead of evil.

 

That totally depends on who the recipient is.

Damn, Bert, you just gave away the secret of Oil of Olay.

[diehardtwinsfan]

what's up with HBO... not running thrones until 12:30 tonight.... now they know why everyone pirates it.

Haha they had a shot if Nunez wasn't about 20 feet from the bag when he fielded it.

The Vikings seem pretty good at it.

[Blake]

For whatever reason, imaginary numbers work in the real world. However, we're not talking the real world when it comes to Twins baseball.

[DiscGolfer]

Wow, Target Field looks pretty empty tonight.  cheap seats from scalpers.

[diehardtwinsfan]

If you get those, it means your team is so bad that WAR is broken.

[Aggies7]

The comments on every tweet the twins send out are just gold this season.

[ScrapTheNickname]

Nunez's BABIP coming into the game was .514. I think that is sustainable.

I think everyone's still at First Avenue.
