this years ASG should be the best of the AL Central versus the rest of the league

Joe Mauer went 5-5 tonight 5 singles he is up to .389 BA an 100 hits on the year 9-2 Twins over the Dodgers in the bottom of the 8th

BREAKING NEWS Liriano IS human Normar with a solo shot but Twins up 6-1 in the 5th Liri with 5 K's so far.

Joe Mauer went 4-5 tonight (3B, 2B 2 singles) and a career high 5 RBI 8-2 bottom of 8 but the stupid Tigers cant lose

Cubs lose again this time shut out by the Twins 3-0

in the last 14 games, the Twins have gained 1/2 of a game insane but, if we finish the season well above .500, I think that would be a sucessful season. Those sweeps against the Sox and Tigers at the beginning of the season is killing the Twins in the standings A lot of Twins fans are hoping Mauer is in the lineup tonight and knock a few hits off Prior

Cubs lose to the Twins 7-2 woo

nice

Justin Morneau now has 19 HR and 60 RBI the man is blazing hot right now make that 61 RBI now 5-1 Twins in the 3rd

Jason Kendall was the one that scored I do believe

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 23, 2006 -> 06:18 PM) Curtis Granderson has really become one of my most hated players in baseball. He's in the middle of everything for Detroit. I agree with this statement. lol Dusty Baker ... wow. Im glad he isnt managing my team (although I think Gardy channels his inner Dusty every once in a while). He has Jacque Jones in the lineup..facing Johan Santana. He must be the only person that knows Jacque can not hit left handers to save his life

the only dominant pitcher in last nights game was Fransisco Liriano and he got little to no coverage on ESPN from what I saw

Kansas City is coming up on them the Royals swept the Pirates

Roger takes the loss boo hoo I dont know how a pitcher could stand the Astros park. 314 down the left field line, Berkman hit 2 homeruns this series that went about 320 feet a piece

I am honored, but Im not really 'mod material' heh but thanks anyway btw, 2-0 Twins top of 3. Clemens is all over the place and throwing a lot of pitches, Liriano has forced 2 double plays -- Morneau with his 17th HR of the year 3-0 Twins top of 6 Roger out after 5, something like 100 pitches

"Everybody is going to be focused on Roger Clemens, with it being his first start of the season," Hunter said. "But while they are all focusing on him, they are going to see something totally different, which is Liriano. He's going to shock the world." that was on the MLB.com preview thingy today

who gets more press: The Mets or Roger Clemens

as mentioned, the Twins rattle off 8 wins in a row, and gained only 1 place in the standing. Its getting to be a bit late to be double digits down Right now, the pitching finally came around, and there has been some timely hitting. Justin Morneau has been on this incredible tear of late. His last 4 home runs have come off left handed pitchers and Joe Mauer is batting in the high .370's The only way they are going to be in the race is if the Tiggers and Sox both collapse and the Twins continue on their winning ways

the man how really worked that Giants deal is now the man who is the GM of the Reds speaking of Liriano...7IP 11 strikeouts 2ER tonight and got the W Twins on a 5 game win streak

how does Glendon Rusch still have a job?

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 06:42 PM) Jim, how the hell do you put up with this guy? He is one of the least patient hitters I have ever seen in my life. My patience has pretty much run out on him. The last year and a half, his defense has been sloppy (with the occansional HOLY s*** catch) He kills rallys with double plays (usually first pitch dps) and hes been running us out of rallys But he has been the franchise player for a while. Maybe thats why we put up with it. But the boo birds have been out a few times for him of late

I am glad he is not facing the Twins anymore. He hit something like .600 this year against them in that series at Safeco, Ichiro has 12 hits and Joe Mauer had 9. Just an unbelievable display of hitting I saw Ichiro at a game a few years back. The man is super fast. He hit one in the right feild gap, he ran all the way to third and was standing on third a split second before the ball reached the infleid. I have never seen anyone do that

El Cheapo Twins wouldnt fork out the dough for Koskie. They needed a place for Cuddyers bat so thats how he ended up at 3rd He sucked there but the Twins loved his bat so they stuck Cuddy out in RF and he seems to have found a home The Twins are weak in teh minor league at infeilders. Matt Moses is a prospect in AA but needs a lot of work on his feilding

word is that Rondell White is gone after Shannon Stewart gets off the DL

Iguchis play was the best defensive play Ive seen this year
