Math yesterday...

 

Comedy tonight!

 

Wait, no... Reading and writing. In short, ABCs.

 

1. Clich A. We got to bear down, tow (toe?) the line, in short, battle our tails off. You can tell that is what we have been doing due to our lack of tails. And that makes a good tale.

 

What are your favorite clich a?

 

2. B'n balls. Won't be covered here as it pertains to rules unwritten.

 

3. C the ball, hit the ball. It is basics like these that make the difference in the end.

 

4. D fence... Oh right. Wrong sport. But good fielding is not to be under estimated. Is it once again something our Twins can be proud of? But them Royals ain't no slouche neither.

 

5. With the greatest of Es. Our bullpen is said occasionally to walk a tightrope act to survive the later innings, but some credit should go to the flying trapeze outfield. But of course no errors this time please... Just to be clear.

 

The rest of the letters, i'll leave to y'all.

Hard to say but the best odds would be someone who's last name begins with M.

F that, I'm not doing any alphabetamath.

Me?

that would be the smart bet.

 

F -- Football is a waste of time when the Twins are on.

G -- Gee, this season is more fun than last year. 

H -- Hawks are the one exception to F above. Way to beat State yesterday!

I -- I'd still DVR the Hawks game and watch it later if the Twins are on. 

J -- Just wait until Sano gets added back to the lineup.

K -- Kansas City needs to go down today.

L -- Like it or not, folks,...

M -- Molitor is going to get attention for Manager of the Year.

N -- No, I'm not suggesting Molitor is a genius,

O -- Or that he'll be back next year, but a

P -- Positive gain of 25 wins of so could be a PR nightmare to let go.

Q -- Quilici. Why? I don't know, but everyone breaks the rules for Q and X on this kind of list.

R -- Royals need to go down today.

S -- Sal Perez shouldn't be attempted to run on.

T -- Twins win.

U -- Uh, I'm running out of things.

V -- Vargas at 1B? I know Mauer needs a break, but his glove has been huge.

W -- Wild Card Fever. Catch It!

X -- Xamine Q comment above.

Y -- Yes, my wife just asked if I have a life.

Z -- Zat's all, folks.

The Twins and Royals are in Game 7 of their series, tied up 3-3. Let's get a win and advance.

C - Control-type pitcher

 

 

D - Drink!

Dang, only a triple.

Who does Kennys think he is?  Buxton?

Vargas defeats Vargas, ends up on second.

 

I hope he scores!

Everyone still ok with Colon in the rotation?

yep, we're going to have to score about 6 runs just about every game if we're going to pull this off

Old man not looking so good today. Senior moment?

Edited September 10, 20179 yr by PDX Twin

This is exactly what the Twins should've done to last night's KC starter.  Go up there looking for a "get me over" first pitch, and rip it.

 

 

The gaps are getting worn out.

W - Wave the white flag

 

Everyone still ok with Colon in the rotation?

4-2 with a 3.42 ERA in his last 8 starts coming into this game. 52 2/3 IP in 8 starts. What a bum

 

Senior moment?

señor moment.

Uffda

Good thing they have an off day tomorrow. The bullpen is gonna need it.

Was never OK with it, and never will be. He is a bum. In the baseball sense. He's been a lucky bum. Trouble with luck, is one can start to think they are good instead of lucky, and press the luck.

As much as I disliked the move, it's worked out pretty well for the team. Can't complain much about that.

Our pitchers aren't leaning. Not only are they horrible, they aren't learning, either.

Me too, I thought it was a gimmicky signing. But going back the last month or so, his numbers are comparable to the other starters. Better than Berrios' numbers. Maybe that's not saying much, but the twins aren't where they are now without him.

We can and we will complain about that! It's a birth right of Twins fans.
