Anyone else realize that Minnesota has a 14 game road trip in September?

 

Is it true they have one series vs Tigers left this year?

Twins have not lost back to back home games since May 30-31 against the Yankees. Unreal.

 

1 run game.

Sure, if it was 2001

 

Well that's the 2-3-4 of our best hitters, and very good hitters.

 

AND YES DYE!

JD!

In Danks first 18 starts, he had allowed 4 runs or more only twice. Now, he has a 4 game streak going of allowing at least 4 runs. His next start is against the Tigers.

IIRC, one of those 4 starts was the game against the Rangers where he went deep and gave up a run or two in like the 8th inning. So realistically he's had about 2 bad starts, one mediocre start and one above average start. You guys expect him to be perfect all season? Hell, I think anyone should have realized he'd trend downward as he tired out.

 

Bottom line is he's been great this season and while he will fade a bit I still expect him to throw a lot of quality starts down the stretch.

 

f*** YES...JERMAINE DYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So ends the worst inning I have ever witnessed. Could be season changing...of course, the Sox could come back....but they won't.

 

yeah, it was intolerable and something needs to be done

 

Danks walks leadoff guy after getting ahead 1-2

Thornton comes in, gets an out, throwns a WP, throws a nice fastball to mauer on 3-1 which ties the game

Morneau grounds into a force out

 

**** TWO OUTS RUNNER ON FIRST ****

 

No balls time.

 

****

Delmon Young hit by pitch. Runners on 1st and 2nd.

Kubel 3-run blast.

 

Anyway, 2-run bomb by JD but we're still not winning this game, such teasers.

:uhoh

 

DYE

 

f*** YOU TWINS

 

LETS GO JI

 

JIM

Sure, if it was 2001

I think I'd take an 18 year old Carlos Quentin batting 3rd...

This game is not over folks.

That's a great start by our 3/4 heroes.

NICE! Keep it going!

Thanks Thornton and Dotel you scrubs.

JD = STUD..

 

no outs..lets get the momento rolling

JERMAINE DYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the middle of our order

I have come to the conclusion that these Minny fans, are nothing but Nordic Cub fans. Trashing their field, throwing balls back.

and the ball is thrown back. further proving they are cubs fans.

Jermaine.

Score another few runs quickly before Nathan gets warmed up.

That's what I'm talking about!

JD and Q man up. Now go back to back and tie it Jimmy.

Big AB by Thome here. Sets the tone for the end of the game.

I never thought he was legit either, although I still like the guy and hope he can learn how to not strike out every other at-bat.

 

...

 

Game's not over yet.

 

Two more guys. Five more outs to do it with.

CQ and Dye should be in the top 5 for MVP voting.

And there you have it. Guerrier comfortable again.

Think Alexei or Swisher have a solo shot in them?
