Pinto needs a thicker chest protector. He's getting beaten up.

[Tibs]

That was seriously ugly, Mr. Herrmann. Brutal. And of course scored a hit, even though it hit in the middle of the glove.

 

It should have been caught, but there's no way that can be considered an ordinary effort to catch that ball.

Herrmann overran the ball- he went into a slide going forward to slow himself down, then he had to reach a little behind him. If he just controls his speed that's not a hard catch at all. He made it a lot harder.

Did those British soccer bastards take over the site again?

[Craig Arko]

Hey, that was so ugly it knocked the server offline for a while.

[afurry91]

Colabello is really on a tear. It's unbelievable.

[big dog]

Thanks to Toronto for allowing the starter to stay in and face Cola. That double was a rocket.

[Willihammer]

Is it deliberately? NO. Its Deduno.

 

Let's go.

[Willihammer]

You know what they say. When you're never around the zone, you get the borderline calls.

[ashbury]

Dozier is above the Mendoza Line. I guess the kid is good after all.

[afurry91]

Nunez with the gold glove out there at 3rd.

[Trevor0333]

I wish I could stop being so offended by the Pelfrey signing & just handing him a rotation spot over Deduno.

 

The better this offense looks it's even more frustrating watching Pelfrey & Florimon.

I would even prefer Kris Johnson at this point

[Willihammer]

This Loup guy is toug.

Agreed on Pelfrey, but the better the offense looks the more we can afford Florimon's good defense. IMO

Not so bad that inning but still

Lawrie really takes charge out there.

[Twins Twerp]

Things that are slower than pelfrey pitching out of the stretch...GO!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Dozier now has 5 HR and 4 SB.

[afurry91]

Bottom of the lineup in innings 8 and 9. not looking good.

I think you mean things that are faster than Pelfrey pitching out of the stretch.

 

To that I would say, Twinsdaily service during peak usage is faster than Pelfrey pitching out of the stretch.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Kubel gave it a ride, but alas, a two out double goes for naught.

 

Oh well.

[Twins Twerp]

Glaciers

[Trevor0333]

Gardy relenting on platooning players

It can take 10+ years for a good scotch to mellow.

Plouffe on the bench? Or did someone say he got hurt in game 1?

Ya, I would pinch hit Plouffe in there at some point. Probably for nunez.

That's kinda the point. If any spots in the lineup are gonna be bad, it's those spots. You seriously shouldn't expect much from a team this bad.
