Twins:
Ben Revere CF
Darin Mastroianni RF
Joe Mauer 1B
Josh Willingham LF
Justin Morneau DH
Ryan Doumit C
Trevor Plouffe 3B
Jamey Carroll SS
Alexi Casilla 2B
(Sam Deduno P)
Tigers:
Austin Jackson CF
Andy Dirks LF
Miguel Cabrera 3B
Prince Fielder 1B
Alex Avila C
Delmon Young DH
Brennan Boesch RF
Jhonny Peralta SS
Omar Infante 2B
(Anibal Sanchez P)
this lineup looks so much sexier with Plouffe back in it.
And Span out.
Good to see Plouffe back. Hope he picks up where he left off!
Tigers hitter 1-4 all bat over .300. I think the Twins are plenty capable of having 5 guys over .300: Span, Revere, Mauer, Morneau and Doumit. Let's hope the Willingham, Revere, Mauer slumps end tonight.
Agreed, After an awful sweep by the Rays, I want to see some anger and aggression come out of this offense. Let's destroy these Bastardos!Quote:

All while carrying a 13 man pitching staff, and Drew Butera.
Whatever the explanation... I hope it's a good one. Nishioka's short stint was as ugly as it gets.Quote:

Game 3: Seriously. **** this guy.

Attaboy Morneau. Way to go with the pitch. Let's tack some more on.
Morneau........again!
Actual game comment... Morneau Yes... Stringing them together with two outs... A beautiful thing...
Nishioka Question... I know Glynn said that Nishi was working hard and looking good... But AAA managers can't throw players under the bus publicly. It's like a hypocritic oath or something. That said... Based on what we saw... It has to be impossible for Nishi to look good at any level.
Has anyone seen Nishi playing in Rochester and back Glynn up?

Not often you SO Prince on 3 pitches
Was that like 8 pitches? Nice!
I'm trying hard not to like Deduno.... It's not working...
