Game Thread Twins vs Blue Jays, 5/31, 1:10pm CT

[Brock Beauchamp]

This team is silly. I just can't even.

[stringer bell]

C'mon Cubs!

[Circus Boy]

Doggone, where is Chitown when we need her to say: GET! HIM! OUT!

[Gibby]

^{Dinnah, I was in the pool.}

[Brock Beauchamp]

God, I love seeing Hunter, Hicks, and Rosario do the leaping back bump thing.

[JB_Iowa]

 

 

Caged 'em for 2 out of 3!

 

Keep those series wins coming!

[Craig Arko]

I think today's game will force the Twins hand. 

 

Either Nolasco goes on the DL or Stauffer is DFA'd to make room for another pitcher from Rochester. I expect Stauffer is DFA'd if Nolasco is truly day to day.

I'd expect Milone if Nolasco goes to the DL, and a hitter if Stauffer is cut.

 

Now, go Cubbies!

CBU update:

 

0-0 Red Sox hosting the Twins. Roughly 25 hours away?

[Circus Boy]

We are winners yet again. This is getting old. Not.

Top of the 11th in Chicago.

 

Watching the Royals broadcast.

"Strummin' on the ol' banjo."

 

(Fee fi, fiddly-eye oh)

 

I think we're gonna need a bigger band wagon...

[JB_Iowa]

Cubs and Royals have throw back jerseys on.

 

I like 'em.

[USAFChief]

 

I'd expect Milone if Nolasco goes to the DL, and a hitter if Stauffer is cut.

Now, go Cubbies!

My guess now is the bullpen stays at 8 at least through Boston.  They got used a lot this weekend.

Well now if we split away against Boston, i will consider that a win win!! But that doesnt mean, i dont want a sweep

[Gibby]

This is awesome. I'm going to have a smile on my face unloading pallet 2, unless I smack my shin into it, which I seem to do every time.

[Craig Arko]

I predict Mauer and the Green Monster will become friends on this trip.

[blairpaul715]

By the way Stauffer lowered his ERA from 8.10 to 8.03 LOL :/

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Thanks all!

 

This time, i did not fall asleep...

[diehardtwinsfan]

Yay, another win.  11 games over .500

[Blake]

 

This may be the biggest Twins win in 4 years.

I don't know, the Sox and Sox sweep were huge. 

[Blake]

The play by Rosario and Santana was perhaps a difference maker in this game. Very heads up baseball.

You are building something?

[stringer bell]

The Twins can bring back Tonkin, if Nolasco goes on the DL. They can recall Milone in time to take Nolasco's next start.

[Brock Beauchamp]

 

The Twins can bring back Tonkin, if Nolasco goes on the DL.

The Twins can't recall Tonkin for a week.

[Circus Boy]

 

I predict Mauer and the Green Monster will become friends on this trip.

 

Is Mauer playing left?

[Brock Beauchamp]

Cubs get out of a jam in the top of the 11th.

I've said it before, Blake, the Twins will not do that. Stauffler would have to melt into a pile of goo, turn into mush, and be evaporated before the Twins would DFA him!

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Come on Cubbies...daddy wants back into 1st place!
