[Intramural Legend]

Those three extra days of fundamentals sure are paying off

[mikeee]

I'll hold my 20/20 hindsight for after the game.

So proud that the offense currently consists of 9 inch grounders and popups in foul ground with RISP.

Don't forget a couple strikeouts

[USAFChief]

Liriano not getting a lot of help here. Valencia needs to get one out on that ground ball.

Defense! How can you not defense it?

Its a game and a half in to the season. Relax a little.

[Riverbrian]

Why was Velencia playing with two outs?

[Ultima Ratio]

If you can't find something nice to say, don't say anything at all. So... our defense can play even better than this! Grrrr.....

[Riverbrian]

Why was Velencia playing with two outs?

I meant playing IN with two outs and runners on 2nd and 3rd.

[Ultima Ratio]

I'm sure we can even do better than three soft infield grounders. I'm sure of it!

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck. Other than Mauer's liner to 3rd, Morneau's double, and Willingham's dinger, the Twins haven't hit the ball hard at all.

Maybe the Orioles pitching is much improved and we are just running into great pitching????????

[minn55441]

What does our lineup look like tomorrow? Mauer at first? doumit catching? Do we give Lexi the day off and give Hughes a shot?

That must be it.

On a different note, look at the crowd... pathetic. It's opening weekend.

You can bet on Doumit C and Mauer 1B... As for Hughes... Yeah... Why not. Give Burroughs some time at 3B as well.

Does Ryan still have the "interim" title btw?
