The Twins have lost 11 out of 12... Big Deal... I need new Windows in my house and I've been losing money on my heating and cooling bills as a result for years. That losing streak makes the Twins current streak look like a walk in the park.

 

The Twins have plenty of left handed hitters to take a shot at the short RF porch and a right hander on the mound. Of course... Not striking out in double digits will help a bunch. Diamond the ports idea wil toe the rubber for the Twins.

The idea being, we're switching from Margaritas to Ports? Sure, it's after dinner.

I love Auto Correct... I'm not gonna correct the auto correct. The randomness of port sider becoming many things is interesting.

Yes, yes, the auto-correct feature always explains why I zlkjnadsjlkfnasdfuyb.

So, what are the chances they actually win one of these games?

Maybe if you made a financial commitment to the product you would see a better return. Or... is that trolling?

Don't blame the front office (wife); the manager clearly left the SW (starting windows) in too long.

I can't wait to see how this series turns out.

I tried to calculate the odds. Unfortunately, my excel spreadsheet just returned a value of "James, You're going to want to have a drink before this number is displayed."

Nothing about "heat death of the universe" was mentioned? Lucky.

Are we behind yet?

Only by three laps. Plenty of time to catch up.

Hoping to see some productive outs tonight! Baby steps.

Actually, I like the lineup. Packed with LH bats, perhaps someone will find the short porch in RF, maybe a few someones.

I will settle for contact... If we F6 27 Times tonight. I will consider it good.

At a certain level I don't care how the 27 outs come about, so long as we have about 16 additional plate appearances (and only a couple LOB).

 

Let me amend that. My main hope is that the opponents tonight make 27 outs of their own. I will consider that good.

Yes, but you really should clarify by which team...

Exactly what I was thinking, I especially like Parmelee in the 2-hole in front of Mauer, Parm has an excellent chance to go deep tonight.

The Yanks get a lead off homer in the bottom of the tenth?

I was meditating and had a vision of some things that will transpire in tonight's game.

 

Although this vision was somewhat hazy, the certainty I took from this vision was that two players of Japanese descent will lead their team to victory.

 

This vision did not indicate if it was the Twins or Yankees who would win.

*shrug* If you'll guarantee me exactly 27 Yankee outs, I'll take my chances. 24, 25, 26, 28... are a different story.

Wow! A last minute re-signing of Nishioka (plus some other guy) plus this outcome will be the greatest comeback in sports history!

I get it. Bark's Lounge's thread post = sucked.

I have to say, I really admire the G-string I just noticed in your avatar.

I've been wondering, does Bark's Lounge have barcaloungers?

If we call him Arciaki... Will that work?

 

I think Arciaki will wear the Victory Kimono and Cherry Blossom tonight.

 

After 7 strikeouts in the two days... I think he will be Samurai like with a strong rebound and short porch.

I get it. Bark's Lounge's thread post = sucked.

They all can't be Grade A... Sometimes Grade D and in between. Grade D is my middle name.

Time for me to go awol for the next 48 hours, hopefully my return to civilization comes with a Twins sweep*.

 

 

 

 

 

*the good kind of sweep

At the risk of joining you in banishment for ethnic insensitivity, I'll go along in wishing Oswaldo-san the best of luck tonight in keeping with Bark's prophecy.
