Game Thread: Twins@Mariners, 4/25, 8:10 p.m.

[Platoon]

I've have turned into Mr. Typo lately. I've always been good for typo's but the past month I've been on overdrive. 

 

In an Email... In response to what should be done with this old flagpole. I suggested that they should hang a flag from it... 

 

I accidentally omitted the L in flag. A Freudian sip

 

[Craig Arko]

I think my favorite James Paxton performance was in Aliens. "Game over, man! Game over!"

Bill.

Circus Boy Update:

 

The band Tesla, accurately predicts the bottom of the 1st with a song written 25-30 years ago, "Easy Come, Easy Go".

 

Mechanical Resonance

[twinscowboysbulls]

Keep an eye on that. Framing stats love Zunino, hate Suzuki.

It was called tight for both sides.

[Danchat]

Shane Robinson batting .391, as expected.

It’s cliché but I’m thinking that they need to bring in a chicken or two – seems to me this would be a good task for Kennys Vargas.

You're going to think this is crazy, but I can't help it... do you mean that if Vargas is going to be eating the chicken, at least he should work off some fat by carrying in 20 lbs for the team?

[Riverbrian]

Freudian Slip?

 

Nope

 

Too many other things to worry about... Lifestyle is about last on my list. 

[twinscowboysbulls]

Are we actually paying Torii or is this a season long charity event for #48

[Platoon]

In exchange for guaranteed Playoffs for the Twins...

 

Would you remove all of your car doors and drive around like that for 6 months.

. If I normally wore pants when I drove, I might.

Man, the number of times i've wanted to remove my car doors because i'm trying to fit something in the back seat but can't because doors only open ~60 degrees...

 

This i deem would be a useful skill worth learning for its own sake.

Well that would be an additional bonus.

Pants wouldn't stop me... I'll do anything for my team.

Nope

[Willihammer]

Mauer swung at like 10 bad pitches there. Very un-Mauer

[Platoon]

. We are paying him 9.9 m to mentor, and the rest to hit!

[ashbury]

 

Nunez is not the problem here.

When Nunez is not the problem, man, have you got problems.

 

I want to root for a team where Nunez is the problem.

[ashbury]

 

Has anyone actually gotten full on sushi? Srs question

Does throwing up count as (at some moment in time) Full?

[stringer bell]

I thought May had Robbie struck out and then he got a walk and scored. Let's hope that sequence doesn't determine the game.

[Craig Arko]

A Snapper mow-em-down inning.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I suspect the answer is........

 

 

 

 

 

 

yes.

[ashbury]

 

Nunez drives in the first run... at a leisurely pace.

We got us a lead?

I knew we could score if we could just get Hernandez out of the game and into the bullpen.

[NorthwestTwinsFan]

Vargas isn't good enough to play in the Majors. So naturally, he bats 5th for the Twins.

In a weird way, I agree

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

He might be good enough in a few years if we let him play!

You mean like Butera? Ah the good old days, when there was only one sub-.200 batter we could pile onto.

[glunn]

 

Over the last few years, whenever the Twins play here, they always lose the games that I attend and win the games I don't. As much as it hurts, I've finally accepted the fact that I'm a bad luck charm. So after cursing them once again with my presence last night, I promise to stay home the next two games.

 

I have had the same problem in Anaheim the past few years.  But maybe it's the Twins and not us.

[ashbury]

If you were guaranteed that the Twins would make the playoffs if you give up indoor plumping...

 

 

Would You do It?

Nope. When nature calls I like to do it far away from nature.

Used to have a car like that. Drove it from 1987-91. I wasn't pleased with the results during the middle part of that period.

[glunn]

Nice setup by JB today!  Very well done.

[glunn]

In exchange for guaranteed playoffs for the Twins I would be willing to live on a tropical island with Jennifer Lawrence for a year.
