Plouffe has to get it figured out. Twins threw all their eggs into that basket. Now he can't get hits since coming off the DL.

 

He has come to the plate less than 25 times since his DL stint. I'd give it another week or five before worrying about it.

Well, at least Gray has lowered my blood pressure - I could care less about the game anymore.

I really, really dislike Jeff Gray. Why is he even here? No fanbase should be forced to watch both Gray and Blackburn pitch.

 

Because the Twins are stubborn, not liking to give up on too many guys and still have to pay them?

 

I don't know. There can be no other explanation. Just lousy.

He's bound to go an entire inning without giving up a run someday. Patience, grasshopper.

Came here for the Jeff Gray outrage. Left satisfied.

I'm fine with having a Gray or Blackburn on the roster. At the back of the pen, it's inevitable.

 

But this team shouldn't have two of those guys. No team should have two of those guys.

Trade them all for a bundle of carrots and stick them up TR ...

Looks like Perkins will pitch the 9th. Awesome.

So you're saying he's not the worst at everything. I may have to rethink my position and ease up on him a bit.

Really....we pitched Perkins in this game?

You just don't follow Gardy close enough Lev, I heard him say so himself last night at around 1AM, he simply couldn't pitch Perkins last night in the 9th- he HAD to have him available for today...

How about a side order of MMM Stew?- (Mansihp (sp)/Marquis/Maloney) with a Tyler Roberston apertif? These are still other pitchers on the worst staff in baseball that the FO has, or continues to deem, MLB-worthy.
