Smells like win?

Well, the Twins are sending their slump-buster out to the mound today.

Beauty! Love KC as the slump-buster.

I think the twins can win today. But I think the only way we can is if corriea gets pulled early before the tigers put up a crooked number.

I'm sensing a football score today. 10-2 sounds about right.

I don't agree. That implies the Twins defense will do something good, like get a safety.

I'm just glad to see that game threads are back.

In honor of KC maybe I will put up my prior Sunshine avatar when he starts, for the benefit of all the readers old enough to know the reference.

Who's to say eddavis didn't imply the opposite? A TD and FG for the Twins and KC gets sacked in the end zone?

Serious WHIP over/under for KC today: 1.7

Same lineup as Game 1, right? Looks like Gardy wants to go with a set middle infield, rather than by committee. Maybe he'll do a platoon split versus lefties?

I knew you were an optimist.

Just getting in the spirit of things today as role reversals are running rampant

Now you're implying that the Twins defense will do something really good. Madness. Cats and dogs, living together.

Kevin Correia's arm was just described as "fresh".

 

Well, that's one way to put it, I suppose.

I can barely contain my excitement over the pregame sugarcoating about to be directed at today's starter.

Kevin Correia's arm was just described as "fresh".

 

Maybe he's been reading TwinsDaily......and receiving Pseudo's ads.

In honor of Worley's "first clean inning" prognostication, when do we get our first HR?

 

I'll say:

4/4/13 - Inning 7

Off to a great start.

I've tried to be positive about this team in recent weeks but Jesus, 9+ innings in and I already hate these guys.

I can't tell if you're talking about the team, or Dickbert.

 

 

 

Or both.

good 1st inning by KC

Cy Correia

*speechless*

In honor of KC maybe I will put up my prior Sunshine avatar when he starts, for the benefit of all the readers old enough to know the reference.

That's the way (uh-huh uh-huh) I like it.

Correia did good -- now let's score a lot of runs on Sanchez.

So stop watching, stop writing and stop caring?

 

a lot of the negativity on this board sucks and it it tends to detract from its appeal.

 

Or we could grossly overreact to a few one-liner quips in a game thread.

Hicks for ROY!!!!

Hicks has a great eye. He and Mauer at the top of the order could really run up pitch counts.
