Article: Game Thread: Twins@White Sox 5/6 7:10PM

[Aggies7]

Just popped back in. Seems like nolasco should have been pulled by now. But, why would he be?

[jimmer]

The young Garcia used to play RF, but it hurt their defense, so they moved him to DH for a better fielding OF?

[Winston Smith]

Good thing Sano is in RF so that 3b defense remains top notch

Sano is very athletic!

[Aggies7]

Whyyyyy are we so bad?

[twinssporto]

Prediction:  Bases loaded for Sox.  Nolasco gets this guy to pop up....Knock on wood....

[twinssporto]

My bad.  Ground out.  Sorry.  Won't say anything again.

[Aggies7]

Navarro, hitting a measly .175.....would be the ty Cobb of twins catchers

[Riverbrian]

I've got the Mound Visit Transcript

 

Allen: Ricky... I know... I Know... You don't have to say it. 

 

Nolasco: Man if Plouffe catches that ball we are out of the inning. 

 

Allen: And you said it. 

 

Nolasco: Well Jeez Neil... I need some help here.

 

Allen: You probably should have covered 1st earlier in the inning. 

 

Nolasco: We are talking Plouffe right now... why do you feel the need to change the subject.

The next time somebody tells me Joe Mauer never has any RBI's because he never gets any chances, or spouts some dribble about his BA w RISP, I'm gonna play a tape of that AB.  

 

"Take two and flip one to left with 2 strikes" never won a pennant and never will.

He still only swung and missed at one pitch in high school.

 

Also he had that blue ox I believe.

[Riverbrian]

The White Sox being able to play defense... May actually make me cry. 

 

I think the White Sox playing defense bugs me more than Total System Failure of the Twins. 

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

Busted.

 

But I gotta ask...of all the "personal" stories I've told on game threads, THAT's the one I get busted on??

All the other jokes seemed sincere. What can I say?

[Willihammer]

Exhibit Q in the stinking Whities out-defending the Twins today.

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

Seriously... 

 

The White Sox playing defense is really going to get under my skin. 

Can you say that again? I didn't hear you. Oh, yeah. It happened again.

[nicksaviking]

He pulled something running to 1st. 

 

Left on the Bench... Mastro... Centeno and Dozier but Dozier didn't start because something was nagging him.

 

They're letting wives in the dugout now?

[Riverbrian]

New Post of the Night Leader!!!

[Winston Smith]

Another bunt?

[twinssporto]

Bunting clinics start tomorrow.  Please go see your nearest little league team.

[HitInAPinch]

Is Molitor calling for all these bunts?  It's just damn weird.

[twinssporto]

Laying off the high fast ball clinics start tomorrow too.  Same location.

[LaBombo]

 

Another bunt?

 

Three bunts a week, or you're on the regional jet to Rochester, in the smelly seat closest to the lav.    Just ask Buxton.

That is awesome!  I'm crying!

It's honestly looking like it might be. 

 

Trying some stuff I guess. 

[HitInAPinch]

is Nolasco officially on the non-performing list yet?

[twinssporto]

I just gotta say this.  I started getting sucked into this whole Twins Daily site last year (new member).  Been a life long DIE HARD Twins fan.  These Game Threads are hilarious.  Wish I would have started this years ago.  The Twins may blow at the moment but this makes watching the games so much more fun.  I can't wait until they start kicking butt again.  These threads would be even more fun!

[LaBombo]

Tentative 'like' given,    just in case...

 

 

 

... inadvertent schadenfreude.

Welcome aboard... This format has gotten us through some dismal seasons. 

 

When it turns around and the Twins start winning... We are going to reverse course and start yelling at each other.

[Danchat]

Uh-oh. Joe's on base streak could be broken today...

[spinowner]
