long rain delay where Cole cannot come back would be great to see. Want to see how gardy/andy handle it.

[IdahoPilgrim]

Boy, I wish we could end the game now and call this a win!

[glunn]

Rain, blessed rain.

 

Maybe the Twins won't lose today after all.

[Top Gun]

How can you lose when you are ahead?

If the rain stops, you will see the answer my friend.

... and then some.

[Willihammer]

Revere pads his lead in the cumulative hussle index (inf hits + sb's).

 

edit: also successfully-evaded rundowns.

 

His score now stands at 60

On the other hand, the Rangers are making a lot of errors. So anything can happen.

[Willihammer]

I wish Revere would start sliding feet first like Mauer. He is going to break something

[greengoblinrulz]

How is it that the pitcher with the 'worst stuff' (not my evaluation, but seemingly team/media's view).....can be the only one who can seemingly pitch to this Rangers lineup???

Are you deducting points for base-running mistakes? I've seen him make several this year.

[greengoblinrulz]

If we're doin baserunning mistakes.....I wanna see Denard's score

[Willihammer]

61...............

[Willihammer]

Did anyone hear how far Morneau's home run went yesterday? I know Duenslinger gave up a 463 footer to Moreland which was 3rd longest ever at Arlington. Morneau's couldn't have been far behind that

[JB_Iowa]

Rangers fielders must be allergic to rain ... good thing they don't see it very often.

[Ultima Ratio]

Announcer just said (for real): "Jeff Gray has done a nice job for the Twins."

[greengoblinrulz]

Wouldnt you think that a tired 98 pitch DeVries (5IP 3h 1er 0bb 5k) is better than a fresh Gray......wrote this before Josh's HR also

[Willihammer]

I blame Gardy

[greengoblinrulz]

huh....10 pitches 3 runs....

Does Butera get credit for the DeVries outing, but not for the Gray inning????

[Bark's Lounge]

It's like deja vu all over again...

[Willihammer]

Casey Fien has a 25% ground ball rate. He has surrendered 33 fly balls, in 22 IP and zero home runs... he has a ERA of 1.25, a FIP of 2.27, and xFIP of 4.44

[IdahoPilgrim]

It's like deja vu all over again...

 

Did you get that from the Department of Redundancy Department?

[greengoblinrulz]

Since the initial bombing of Gray in MIL on May 20th when people kept saying 'it was only a 1gm outing...why are some people upset'

32gms 34IP 43h 29er 7.67era 14k 14bb 6hr.......pretty solid 3 months

[jctwins]

DFA this son of a bitch and pitch Butera in his stead. If there isn't room for Blackburn on this roster, than there sure as hell isn't room for Gray.

[Alex]

Gray definitely solidified my vote for him as chairman of the #FreeAnthonySlama campaign. Chairman of said campaign gets a free trip to Rochester...

Something like that.
