MOAR RUNS!

You still scoff?

I didn't count on the Chen factor.

According to the Royals' announcers, the Twins will land in Baltimore after 4:30 a.m. I wish that I knew a bookie so I could bet on tomorrow's game.

Yeah I know... They will be so tired... Gardy won't be able to think and outsmart himself.

 

Twins Win!!!

Move to Nevada.  You can't swing a dead cat without hitting one.

[Riverbrian]

Yep... Nunez sure can't play defense!!!

[glunn]

But I like our cat.

I swung a dead cat once... It was like... a real bad air freshener.

[Halsey Hall]

Well that was fun!  Perk can't undo this lead.

[ashbury]

"Twins scored 11 tonight."
"Great! Did they win?"
"Old joke.  But barely, if you want to know the truth."

[Riverbrian]

Chief isn't here... Someone else will have to do the honors.

Now that we have met, I can visualize that.

Nunez needs to play more.

There are several regular posters here calling for his DFA. After his first AB, I felt inclined to join them. He brings something to the table, and he gets some XBHs. I think he's a good bench option.

[Riverbrian]

Alright I'll do it

 

"Winnah"

There are several regular posters here calling for his DFA. After his first AB, I felt inclined to join them. He brings something to the table, and he gets some EBBs. I think he's a good bench option.

I'm keeping Nunez. And this year... I'm playing him more

It's not easy to catch, but the kid in the commercial is wearing a White Bear Lake t-shirt!  My hometown.

 

Edit: That was supposed to contain the quote of Chief's about the McDonalds commercial.

[Circus Boy]

Cue Beatles, "A Day in the Life"...

 

"Woke up, got outta bed, saw the Twins were now ahead..."

 

I almost always miss the end of games because I drift off around the 7th inning. So I assumed Royals magic would chalk up another win for them. Pleased to see us put it away in extras. Gosh, I hope they play winning baseball the rest of the way, so they have something good to show heading into the off-season.

 

Cheers to all. And Mr. Glunn, not sure what happened, but hope all's well.
