Twin's pen is going.

hes at 80 pitches through 4...i love this offense so far

Thome K's. 1 stranded.

3-2 Twins. Blackburn at 81 pitches

JT and PK look lost today!

Wow, Thome and Konerko are killing this team right now.

Except Thome has 1 of the 2 RBIs in this game thus far.

Time for the Twinks to get their lead off man on again.

And with Swisher being able to play 1st, and having good defensive OF on the bench, there are actually options to use in their spots, unlike the last few years.

Yup.

 

Whether he's ready or not, Anderson should be in CF these next 2 games, Swisher should be at 1b, and Thome and Konerko should get some extra time to relax for a day.

konerko is looking like he did first half of last year and first half of 03...not good

Wow, Thome and Konerko are killing this team right now.

 

 

We're going to head into a phase where some people on this board are going to want Swisher at 1b and Owens in CF. It will at first be called the dumbest idea on earth, and then eventually (maybe not immediately).... one of Paul/Jim will be declared done and those people will not seem so dumb.

 

I have saved us the need to watch all these games.

 

Hey if we get Anderson in, with Swisher at 1b, we can have a 1b leadoff hitter.

Oh DJ that pitch was at his head.

Line out to Crede. 1 out.

I think that was a subtle knock at the ump.

Nah, lets just put Owens at 1B. Make the transition easier.

Javy Vazquez, two quick outs. I don't believe it.

First 1b ever to be able to field bunts himself and tag runners out

I think that was a subtle knock at the ump.

 

I don't know about the first comment.

 

Fly to center. 2 out. Morneau up.

1-2-3

Correct. However their combined .183 average have hurt this team.

Eh, wants Thome starts struggling in clutch situations I'll b****. He's had some huge hits these last few games.

Nice inning for Javy. Let's get some runs plz.

Morneau flies out to left. Inning over. Sweet inning. Now is the time to get to Blackburn.

god, it's like we're doing our 2008 "special" already in this game. setting up til the middle innings...i hope

1-2-3 a rarity for JV!

You guys are looking at this wrong. This is the right situation, having half of your lineup slumping while the other half is hitting. There'll be plenty of games where Thome-Konerko carry us while AJ-Crede-Uribe are scuffling. It's better this way.

I'm not b****ing yet but it is starting to get kinda frustrating to watch.

This is true. It'd just be nice to get these guys going sooner rather than later.

Paulie looks confused at the plate.
