Well, I'll say this. With all the talk about inappropriate or frowned upon game thread posts, if you're still watching this trash at this point, you have to be a true fan. That entitles you to something, in my book.

 

ChiTown is working on Margarita Cup Cakes for all of us. 

Just so you don't exhaust yourself.. I'm going ask you to be the guy who updates Kepler Major League Stats.

I appreciate the assignment, but that still may be a little too much work. Can I volunteer for Nick Gordon's MLB stats? That should give me a 2-3 year window of preparation.

Is bob wells loose in the pen?

 

There are Twins fans who still can't spell Mauer correctly.  Spelling isn't high on any list of competency. :-)

 

I know and I have Twins Fans in my neighborhood who start up their Mauer at 7AM on a Saturday morning.

 

Waking us all up. 

 

 

 

Does this mean Fien gets sent down?  Yet another inning with runs scored for him.  Seems like the needs to be some equity.  Meyer gets treated like crap and his confidence dinged.  But good forbid Hughes or Fien or any of the other underperforming veterans gets held accountable.

I feel bad for Meyer.  Can you imagine the amount of heat he took from his teammates in Rochester?  I can see him walking into the locker room upon getting sent back down and everyone turning around saying that didn't take long dude!

I think the secretary in the Commissioners office would have been asking if the spelling of Herrmann was correct.

 

Do you mean the spellingg?

time for Plouffe to come through here

It would be awesome to have that last name... and have it spelled exactly that way.

It's like they say: pack lightly.

You mean come through the Game thread?

Going into today, Mauer's OBP was 41 points higher than any other AL regular.  41 points. And he's 2 for 3.  He's gotten on base every game.

If it were your name, RB, people would say, "Well, hello Mr. Man," and you'd wonder what they're going for.

You simply have to PH here. You have to. 

Awesome!  Our .083 hitter up with bases loaded.  This could be interesting to watch.  

 

BE A HERO KID!!

Oh goody, here's JR Murphy with the bases loaded. Our .079 batter with the bases loaded...

 

You simply have to PH here. You have to. 

Totally agree

MAYBE NEXT TIME

.077 now

So what your saying is 4 more in the R column?

My confidence in Molitor drops daily. 

The fact that it's only the bottom of the 5th inning makes me want to vomit.

Sorry, Mollie went to the Ron Gardenhire Irrationally Paranoid of Losing Both Catchers School of Management.

Hind Sight is 20/20

 

Looking back... It probably would have been better if Arcia would have crushed one of those down the middle offerings. 

 

 

 

MAYBE NEXT TIME

Murphy is doing so poorly I'm concerned his only chance at being a hero playing baseball will be in the minors.

What if Eduardo Escobar has to catch the 8th inning when we're behind 17-9? What will we do then? WHAT WILL WE DO?
