If Wise is starting in LF, that's gotta be a good sign in regards to Carlos, doesn't it?

I think you're right. But it also might be a bad sign for Brian Anderson.

We need to wear Yankees jersey's during warm ups and see if that scares the Twins at all...

i cant believe our defense is actually about to get worse.

I think you're right. But it also might be a bad sign for Brian Anderson.

Brian Anderson's hitting over the last 1.5 months is the only bad sign Brian Anderson should care about.

I guess they want Pods to get reps in center. I don't like the idea of him being in center, but if it means that Q is coming back, so be it.

 

Blackburn's usually pretty good against us. Let's see what happens tonight.

I don't disagree. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think we have to keep Wise over Anderson. We still need a lefty off the bench and he's essentially the only option when Getz is starting at 2B. I think it's very likely we'll see Brian get sent down when Quentin gets called up and possibly even sooner if they decide to go with Colon as the 6th starter.

This is the beginning of the Gordon Beckham Twin-Killer career. BTW, Danksy, pretends its 163 all over again.

A lot of discussion on Chicago Tribune Live about trading for Holliday. Rogers from the Trib said Blue Jays want a SS, so give them Alexei, Poreda and two throw ins. He mentioned they might like Floyd too. HE said he wouldn't do it.

 

He also said that Bobby Jenks most likely won't be on this time come next season. He likes Link and Nunez at closer. Take it FWIW.

Gotta imagine guys like Thornton and Peña would be options first.

No way do I see us giving away Alexie for anyone really unless the deal is just unbelievable. Yes, his D has been poor at times this year at SS but to have a guy who can put up these kind of numbers for $1M a year is a huge $ saver, and it provides you with some flexibility to sign other players at other spots while staying within the $ number given by management.

Yeah, I really would be upset if we traded Alexei in a trade for the Doc.

Keep in mind that we would only get 1 full season out of Halladay...

 

Then we'd have to outbid the RedSox and Yankees to keep him.

 

Way to run out of the box, Alexei.

BTW, it took Hawk two batters to mention Carlos Gomez.

God damn Twins

Jermaine grounds into a double play. Twins to bat.

Great First Inning....

Whatever happens, we should start off the series pleased to take one out of three and get out of Dodge ahead of the Twins at the ASB.

 

Until the players start to expect to win there, it's hard to get upset as a fan when they don't even believe they can win in that place.

It's going to be a tough night for Hawkeroo, I feel for him.
