I don't know what goes on in Minnesota, but I just saw that Morneau left the game early on. Does anyone know what happened?

No but if Morneau is injured it makes the division alittle easier to win!

The guy is a walking calamity. He gives injury prone a whole new meaning.

The MLB site that gives you play by play said he left in the top of the fifth with an injured elbow. No further info.

They have two of those, the other is called Joe Mauer

If he was plunked, i dont think they would call it a strain. I think it would be called a bruise. Strain sounds to me like he landed on it funny.

I think it m ore than likely had to be related to a swing - he grounded out in the half of the inning before he was replaced. I doubt he had to dive or anything, but I didn't actually see the play.

Punto just went down with some sort of hamstring injury. Too bad he hit that 2-run homer first.

i was going to say they are going down like hookers in the back of a movie theatre, but yours is good too.

 

morneau is simply day-to-day, just like the rest of us

The guy has a black cloud over his head. He is prone to get injured.

I am watching the Twins/Indians game on MLB gamecast, and the game is stopped again for an injury delay. Does anyone know whats up?

Mauer just went out with tightness in the groin area.

Twins won. 3 1/2 game lead. I hate that team so much.

At least they worked out the Tribes bullpen for us...

I give them props no doubt but I don't know of any other f***in team that pulls more games out of their asses than them.

Sox are a close second this season but over the past 3 seasons? With the bullpen we have were lucky to go to the 13th tied up. Shingo and Meatballino need to go or straighten out big time for us to have a good bp.

It's usually from throwing or holding up a swing. I believe he is a lefty so it would be his back arm. Typically you don't get that. It's usually the front arm. Did he do it while in the field?

Now if that was Lew Ford he hits a double to right center and keeps the conga line running. Uribe swings for the fences and tomahawks a ball over his head. Thats why our comeback fizzled out and thats why their team keeps chugging.
