Well, that inning sucked.  Now Mauer's only on pace for 7 hits. . . unless we go extras.  Any chance Milone comes out of the bullpen tonight?

 

He's also breathing through his eyelids like a lava lizard, and wearing some new gear from Under Armour.

Rose goes in the front, big guy.

They're still the 2016 Twins. There's a chance extraterrestrials will come out of the bullpen tonight.

Shows what kind of athlete Joe Mauer is - he's been dropping balls, then making good plays anyway.

He's been making great plays all year long.  Last couple days especially.  Diving everywhere.  That last one was smoked.  Good to just stop it.

Seems more athletic to just, you know, catch em, but that way's good too

 

I'm the guy in the Twins shirt.

I guess I shouldn't be too hard on you. Tough to lug this into a ball game.

I just mistyped twins on my phone and autocorrect changed it to stains

The light grey Twins shirt or the dark grey one?

 

I've probably told this story, but I was at the Big A that night when Niekro got ejected.  4th deck, between 1st and home.  I could see the board fly out of his pocket from there.

 

Neikro didn't think it through.

 

1. He should found an emery board that was the same color as his fingernails.

 

2. Cut it in patterns that match the size and shape of his fingernails. 

 

3. Have the cutouts surgically attached permanently as implants. 

 

To my knowledge... there is no rule against that.

yes.

Only two 1Bs have more defensive runs saved than Mauer. They both have eight DRS. Of the top 5 in DRS at 1B (two with 8, three with 6), 4 of them have at least 873 innings played going into today.  Except Mauer who had 636.

The Peyton on Sunday Mornings commercial is pretty good.

 

I checkout guy is perfect.

Peyton Manning has great comic timing.  He's hilarious.  He hosted SNL one night and he did a united way skit I will never forget.

So what you're saying is Mauer is too fragile to play everyday

Guess the Santana thread would be a good start.

 

Oh ****, Sano thread !!

Having participated....I love this post.

 

It's almost like a D1 caliber 3 sport athle
So what you're saying is Mauer is too fragile to play everyday

yes, exactly :-)

 

The last time the Twins scored at least 10 runs in 3 straight games was July 25-27, 2010 vs. Baltimore and Kansas City

 

Well... 

 

This post stopped any chance of it happening.

guy needs to go outside, turn around three times, spit and curse!

Alright SSO1 I'm way past 20 likes, so, you know

 

there's that guy who might get some ROY votes, Roy :-)

That was quick......

Now is probably the time to yank him.

Now it's time for Molitor's IQ test. Starter starts getting shelled in the 5th inning... What. Do. You. Do?

Get someone loooooose

Great Good Okay night for Duffey, but he needs to figure out a way to not give up XB hits on first pitches. Getting ahead of hitters is great and all, but...

Almonte is damn quick.

Ultimately, I think the Duffmeister makes a better pen arm than starter. I want a Duff/Chargois reunion.
