At this point, who do you see as our RH set up man? Burton? Swarzak? Does Swarzak getting the start indicate more of a long relief/spot starter role (an immanent need with Baker and Marquis' issues)?

Mauer F8

Hughes rbi single

Swarzak first inning

Revere is really making it hard to put him in a reserve role. Beat out another infield single. His ability to battle his tail off has to be eating at Gardy...

4-0 twins now.

does anyone know why I can't get the mlb.com gameday thing to work? Do I need to download a plug-in, or is there some other site I can go to to follow the game?

Is it giving you an error?

Is it giving you an error?

no, its just not updating. Even after I hit refresh it shows Top 2, Denard at bat.

You need flashplayer installed, I know that much.

If you haven't closed your browser and re-opened it yet try that, otherwise I don't know what it could be.

Carroll 2 run double, Mauer rbi groundout to make it 4-0.

 

Carroll at .244, 5rbi, 2 less than Mauer.

rats, nothing working. Probably some sort of software at work preventing it. Thanks for the help though guys!

Mine doesnt work this year either, but it has in previous years. Probably similar problems.

2 out walk in 3rd is the only baserunner Swarzak has allowed thus far. 4-0 through 3.

Swarzak ran out of gas in the 4th, with 2 2-out walks. Gray in.

Gray gets Betimet 1-3 to end the inning.

 

I'd guess Swarzak started today, since Pavano got slugged around vs BALT recently. Saw Seth's tweet on pavano pitching in Minor League game.

Carroll leads off w/walk. OPS now around .700 for the spring, despite .244 average.

Carroll steals 2nd. Pretty good for an old guy.

rbi single by Morneau. 5-0 Twins. Small-ball'd that run

rbi single by Morneau. 5-0 Twins. Small-ball'd that run

Morneau must be batting about .500 (4 for 8 or so) since his 2 HR game. Small sample size, but good sign.

Anyone know what Morneau's average is over the last week? Has to be over .400

Gray 1-2-3 fifth. Probably moving his way into the bullpen.

Unable to score in the sixth, despite 1-out singles from Towles and Casilla.

 

Gray out for the sixth.

1-2-3 sixth for Gray

 

2 1/3 perfect innings 4 groundouts/line out/flyout/K

 

HUGE for him.
