Gardy looks like he's lost weight.

Twins broadcast mentioned he'd lost 40lbs prior to his surgery.

Sano's "misstep" was him realizing that he had no chance. I'm pretty sure he was thinking, "Oh shucks" in Spanish.

 

Oh, mierda I believe are the words you're looking for

What do ducks have to do with bunting?

You get ducks on the pond, you sometimes bunt 'em over.

 

 

I cna ytpe 300 wrods pre mniuet!

Time for the hook, Molly.

Probably one hitter too long.

Ut oh

Gardy looks like he's lost weight.

Medical procedures can do that to ya.

 

_{^{/ I see that I was ninja'd by an observation about weight loss before surgery}}

We all talk about Burton's amazing speed, but even though it's not always used properly, maybe, look at the speed this team is developing?

 

Buxton may be the Roadrunner, but Polanco, Rosario and Kepler all run well. Escobar and Adrianza are no slouches. Granite can motor and should be a fixture soon. Gordon runs well.

 

These guys keep learning to hit better, doubles, triples, 1st to 3rd, etc...WOW!

Even if it's a tie game in the bottom of the 7th and I crank one off the wall and have a shot for a in-the-parker, I'm stopping at first if I'm Buxton.

 

I'd fist pump and jump around like I just won the World Series....then untuck my jersey, turn my hat backwards, and start a slow trot around the warning track for high-fives.

Ok who else thought hildenberger was going to launch that into CF?

 

Ervin wants to stay a Twin.

Well, he is impressing me. So Erv must be getting noticed somewhere.

HildyGuard!

Nice routine 1-6-3 DP.

 

Ok who else thought hildenberger was going to launch that into CF?

I was more worried about Polanco's throw to first.

Nice 1-6-3!

uh...ND?

Save that for a game in San Diego, where they stay classy.

Hildenberger....absolutely a keeper!

Where is Molitor's faith in Hildenberger? Give the kid a few more pitches to get three outs!

I heard someone calling. Who almost screwed that up?

Anyone worried about Castro going on the DL there for a moment? Lol

 

I heard someone calling. Who almost screwed that up?

No, Who's on first.

Well, it turned out okay. Low BA against lefties works for me.

You get ducks on the pond, you sometimes bunt 'em over.

Ah. Makes sense.

 

I had not thought of that...

Anyone worried about Castro going to the mortuary there for a moment? RIP

FTFY

Hit's like those plus good defense is why I think Mauer still has a pretty decent chance at the Hall of Fame.  I figure it's gonna take 2500 hits or more but if he plays 4 more years he will be right there.

Joe's 6th multi-hit game in his last 7.

Kind of crazy how Jay, Burdi, Jones, Melotakis and even Reed and Chargois all have the injury bug slow them and Hildenberger...a former what, 30 something pick...stays healthy and climbs the ladder to be such a good looking young BP arm.

 

Ahh...baseball.

I complain enough about Molitor, in fairness I should mention when I think he did the right thing.

 

And not letting a LH hitter tie the game off Hildenberger was the right thing.
