I'm just saying, other than Beckham, he's the last person I'd want up at the plate with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

 

Agree?

 

Rather have him up than Dunn, as Rios doesn't strike out a lot

5/15, .333 against righties, 0/10 against lefties.

Thanks that sums it up for me. I would bench Dunn or pinch hit for Dunn against the lefties.

 

Nice. Play. Brent.

Yeah, I agree. I am willing to wipe the slate clean for this year though, and hope he gets it done.

 

 

Jesse Crain has entered the building. Good luck Jesse ...Je see that you got J Peralta to ground out. Good one.

 

That play by Morel made me think of Mark Teahen...

Crain was nasty there

Crain looking SHARP

6 more outs - could use another run or 2

Great inning by JC Jesus Crain.....anticipating some screwballs to make a later appearance in this game.

 

Crain was a great pickup last year.....I remember Twins fans trying to downplay us acquiring him.

I could be speaking too soon, but I'm starting to feel very good about this team.

Lawrie just tried to steal home with the bases loaded and Joey Bats at the plate -- lol!

Would rather see Jones mopping up a 7 or 8-0 lead.

Twins fans have fallen off the face of the earth.

Yeah well their team isnt very good.

Right where they belong

Avila is getting his ass kicked out there.

Avila getting killed the last 2 innings.

 

And then one ball was crushed off his face mask.

Flowers is swinging from his heels - OUCH!

Watching beckham bat makes me sad. Not angry. Not frustrated. Just sad.

 

He looks on the ball right in this one though.

10 Ks in 22 AB - so sad.

So much for that.

so bad, so sad

Don't know what to say with Gordon anymore.

 

He hit one ball hard foul and almost had a hit down the LF line?

 

He just kind of has that "deer in the headlights" look up there now. Maybe sending him down would allow him to relax and get back to basics, away from the spotlight. The problem is that we need his defense.
