Excellent.

I am shocked when fast runners don't do what Lew Ford did to us last night against the tandems of Garcia / Pierzynski and Contreras / Pierzynski.

I have a problem with the SB attempt because Iguchi isn't that fast like you said and Dye has a lot of power. He could actually knock in Iguchi from 1B.

Your welcome. He doesn't suck at life because he's making a lot of money to play a game.

Right now, he just sucks at hitting. Hopefully, that will change soon.

I love giving away outs with Ozzieball and one of our best hitters at the plate.

And fathom is right. Anderson has taken far too many strikeouts looking. That's a fact.

Yep, and look at what happens when you don't bunt and play for one run...

Let Iguchi swing away please.

I'm surprised that Anderson has struck out so many times looking. I expected most of his strikeouts to come swinging.

Anderson takes a called third strike. Inning over.

What did Armando Almanza do to be placed on the restricted list?

Their pitching staff is great but it sure doesn't seem like their offense is much better than last season. Rondell White is okay but he's not a very strong DH and Tony Batista is awful. Juan Castro starting? Terrible.

It's funny to see the different reactions to the Thome acquisition from before the season started to now. Before the season, most Twins and Indians fans were saying that Thome would suck or just get injured with us. Now they are all wishing that their team had acquired him. The Twins could have used him over RonDL White as their DH and the Indians could have stuck him at 1B over their current Ben Broussard / Eduardo Perez platoon.

I think Rowand44 said this. It seems like the Twins' offense really hasn't improved much since last season.

Well, I guess he isn't going to have a 1.464 OPS forever.

^^^^^ So true.

I'm just wondering if we still even need three lefties. Thornton has barely pitched and I just wonder if we would be better off with another righty than Logan.

I didn't realize that this hasn't happened in forever. Pretty impressive.

Putrid.

Isn't Jeff Nelson still a free agent? I'd rather have Nelson versus righties than Logan versus lefties. Afterall, we could just use Thornton as our LOOGY and more.

So brutal.

This is sickening.

Willie Eyre.

It's getting to the point where we would be better off if he hugged the bag with Iguchi, Thome, Konerko, and Dye up after him.
