Wow..my first ever game thread. You know we are bottoming out when someone starts the game thread 30 minutes before game time!

we better kill Silva, he sucks. If mark sucks again, i will yell at him belligerently.

its a must win, if we win today, we will be .5 game back (essentially even) and with a faily light schedule the rest of the way, and possibly minny without radke, people around here will take a step back from the ledge

no mauer today, that is good news. Please pitch around Morneau the whole game. Don't let him beat us.

Did you forget how Redmond just killed us last week up in the rollerdome? There is a reason why they bat that guy 3rd when he plays.

At least we have a pitcher out there that can control the running game. I really have no faith against the Twins when I know 2 of our guys really can't hold runners (although Vaz isn't horrible at it, Jose sucks at it but I guess on the bright side Freddy wasn't pitching against them).

I'll miss the second half of the game, but considering the fact that the last two have had depressing endings maybe thats not a bad thing

 

a win isn't necessary for a playoff spot, but it could atleast make us believe we can beat the twins

I have a good feeling with Mark today. Today is the day where our season gets turned around.

 

there we go

High change-up #1 on the day. The over/under is 12.

 

Here we go again.

Sorry to say, guys but I smell sweep. Sox cannot play and keep up with that style of baseball. But I think they'll be okay once the Twins leave town......till we see them again at the end of September.

Here we go again.

buehrle needs to get his act together

 

he needs to keep it down

you are horrible buehrle

You have to admire these swings by the Twins with 2 strikes. I love the high fastball call when it's a DP situation. Keep up the amazing pitch calling catchers.

I'd hate to see what happens when you have a bad feeling.

i should be allowed to be pessimistic if they get swept at home against the team they are competing with for the wild card

Hawk....for the love of God, please shut the hell up with the piranha s***.

You can actually hear the frustration from individual fans. After that run scored, I could hear two people distinctly say, "coooooooome oooooooonnn" and "what the hell."

I really dont understand why he cannot get his pitches down. Is there something I'm missing here. I really think that you have to consider completely revamping this rotation for next year. I would love to trade Buerhle to los redbirds.

Aj has been considerably worse at calling games this year imo.

 

1 run is not as bad as it couldn have been.

I'd hate to see what happens when you have a bad feeling.

 

They scored 1 run, we have to score anyways in order to win. I don't think MB will have a bad outing today.

Mark gives up hits so quickly Its hard to keep track of whats going on.

 

So at what point do these games fit the 'fun bad' category..any B&B fans will know what I'm talking about.

im booing. thats it.

we deserve this, we really do, we brought it on ourself
