that wasnt on purpose. the fastball just ran in.

i don't care, he hit him

I say we just win instead.

3 come from behind unbelievable type wins in a row - sign me up.

That's a hit. Crede, Uribe, Vizquel all make that play routinely.

Inge better buy that official scorer a car this offseason.

 

Maybe there's a deal already in place.

 

 

So because Nix, Viciedo, Fields and Teahen don't make that play regularly, it's a hit, haha.

Ugh...2-0 Twins

teahen should be selling tbones and ribeyes. he is more of a butcher than a 3B

That's a hit. Crede, Uribe, Vizquel all make that play routinely.

 

KW really needs to be looking to trade Teahen this offseason. He's an awful fit in the AL, as he'd be much better off playing in the NL.

i swear he looks more out of shape than he did with KC

I would bet Teahen didn't use those 2+ months of paid vacation to work out religiously...

 

And maybe Chicago's one of the worst cities for avoiding delicious, high fat foods during the summer months.

We still have hope in the late innings the Twins seemingly have taken a page out of the Bobby Jenks' book How to Make It Interesting lately.

bases drunk in minny, 2 outs

But are you ready to commit to Morel or Viciedo for that position?

 

Bringing back Vizquel? You can't think he could repeat anything close to a 700 OPS at age 44...interesting decision.

Well, 4.5 games back...hell of a run to keep it this close.

4-0

Game, Twins.

 

Unless Liriano or the bullpen has a meltdown.

 

But the Royals have never played well in Minnesota. Actually, they've never played well anywhere since the early 90's.

 

 

Thome OPS up to 1.024. Two walks. And even his 4-3 "shift" groundouts to short RCF were more interesting than Kotsay's 8 hop rollovers.

I'm sure they'll lose again...but it would be nice if they lose more than once a week. Their starting pitching is doing an amazing job of keeping them in every game and allowing their offense a chance to win the game. Can't believe they're all the way up to 24 games over .500

 

Here's the point. On their current pace of losing about once a week, they're going to win around 100 games. Anyone think the Twins are a 100-win team? No.

 

What goes up . . . will at least level off. We just need to keep winning.

Did you know in 1990 KC had the highest payroll in baseball?

6-0

Why aren't they a 100 win team? They're good in every aspect, and have nearly all of their players performing well. People really underestimate how awful their schedule is the rest of the way.

Sometimes I think that Carlos Quentin sucks. Sometimes I think that Carlos Quentin is pretty good.

 

He's a weird dude, and a weird baseball player.

Wouldn't you think the Sox should level off as well? I just don't think the Sox can be more than 2 or 3 at the most back after the Minnesota series next week to have a realistic chance. 4 or 5 back would be almost impossible to overcome, especially considering Minnesota's opponents.

It's the road...of course he sucks. I do think Boston should trade for him, as he'd be a great player at Fenway.

Ewing Kauffman >>> David Glass

 

You can't have two more polarizing figures...Kauffman being universally loved and respected, Glass vilified for his Wal-Mart, cost-cutting, bottom line ways. He just doesn't look like the kind of guy you even think of having a beer with.

Twins taking all the drama out of tonight's action.

 

Well, there's always the Padres/Giants saga. Or Rasmus in STL.

i like how verlander suddenly starts throwing in the high 90s in the 7th. the guy's a stud.
