Well, Buxton did say some really weird stuff on Aug. 1st.:

 

"It’s the same knee that has bothered him since he banged it into the outfield wall on consecutive Friday’s just before the all-star break, but Buxton said he didn’t want to undergo more tests to rule out a more serious injury. He plans to take batting practice on the field Tuesday in hopes of a quick return to action."

Thanks, SSOO.

Not from Gary Gnu, at least...

Twins have beaten Trevor Bauer in both games this year.   http://emojipedia-us.s3.amazonaws.com/cache/f8/69/f869f6512b0d7187f4e475fc9aa7f250.png

"I don't want to know if I am injured"? really? ugh......

 

Is that really up to him?

BTW, I'm in MN this week "for work". It's nice to get them to pay for me to travel to see my family and friends.......that said, wow, I had totally forgotten what humidity feels like in just 10 weeks. I won't miss humidity either.

It's one of the strangest things I've read.

Im a fellow TC transplant living in Oregon. The mellow weather is great but that December rain can find a way to bring you down.

I don't get the chance to watch too many games, but I get to tonight. I'm sitting here debating which broadcast to watch and I think I am legitimately tuning into the Twins team. Smalley is pretty good. Maybe its SSS, maybe my hatred for Bert is blinding me. How do people here generally feel about the job Smalley is doing?

 

well, nice start.

Double for Mauer = Good Sign!!

Dozier kills a line drive that Lindnor catches, Joe with ho hum, another double.  Let's go Twins!

I like Smalley quite a bit, and I think he's better when he's done a few games in a row.  I don't know if he becomes more familiar with the team, or he just uses up all the tired analogies and thinks for himself (maybe both), but I think he's a nice change.

 

 

well, nice start.

Wait a sec!  Was that sarcasm for Dozier's 1 pitch out or Mauer's double? 

 

Damn it, barely started; already confused......

Mauer, Kepler, Sano.

Gonna have to throw strikes to get those guys out.

I'm thinking it's about time Sano nails one....

can throw almost anything to Sano and he'll swing.  Or check swing, I guess.

 

14Ks in the last 6 games.

Sano NAILED that walk    

going to get to Cleveland's bullpen quickly

double time for Rosario.
