[Mr. Ed]

Hurray! Casilla's slap-hitting successor makes his Twins debut tonight.

I can't wait for get-away day lineups that include

Escobar(2nd)
Florimon(SS)
Carroll (3B)
Butera (C)

When you "emphasize defense" with slap hitters like this, is it any wonder the Twins only have 55 wins, and will lose over 90 in back/back seasons?

Sano has no hope in this org. Gardy will freak over his D and leave him AAA to rot.

I noticed on the Twins.mlb.com website that this is a "Free Game" on mlb.tv (for us cheapskates who don't subscribe to the regular package).

Nice hit by Slappy Escobar

[twinsnorth49]

This is just the kind of slap hitting we've been looking for lately.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Hey, look. Runs.

[twinsnorth49]

Feast or famine with this team.

[mikeee]

nice 7 spot. wow!

[mikeee]

Hope it's enough!!!

[Brock Beauchamp]

Hey, look. More runs!

[kydoty]

And after another touchdown, Parmelee tacks on a field goal!

[GCTF]

Happy Birthday, Hawk.

[kydoty]

So who scores more, the Twins tonight, or the Vikings on Sunday?

[Ultima Ratio]

What is this team in blue scoring runs tonight? Every once in a while they dust us with opiates.

[sbknudson]

Just got back from a trip. Did I miss anything tonight?

[USAFChief]

Happy Birthday, Hawk.

Guffaw.

[twinsnorth49]

Nothing like cleaning your filthy Sox!!!!

Looks like the White Sox pitching staff worked wonders with Humber, damn Rick Anderson!!

[SpiritofVodkaDave]

This is a fun game to watch.

To bad we let that Phillip Humber guy go...

[GCTF]

Fun fact...The sox have more extra base hits in this game than the twins.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Chris Parmelee. Ridiculous.
