On 2nd thought, we may need another 3 runs to feel confident in bringing out Duensing.

 

My boy Duensing hasn't allowed a run in the past 10.1 innings.

 

EDIT: Oops, Mr. DiscGolfer beat me to it.

[Vanimal46]

Duensing in his last 7 games, 9.1 IP and only 1 hit 7K,

And his last 7 appearances were all in garbage time either down or up by 6+ runs correct?

(As Terry Ryan)

 

#5 -- I was talking with Tom Kelly last night and he told a funny joke. He said that he thinks Joe Mauer makes too much money... We laughed and laughed for at least 20 seconds.

No, I'm classic; or vintage.

I would recommend getting a new boy on the Twins. There's approximately 24 better options to choose from.

[DiscGolfer]

 

So he's doin' pretty good, eh?

 

I thinks he's doing better than what many people give him credit for.  Bullpen still needs help but I don't think he's the biggest problem anymore.  Earlier in the season I was ready for him to get the hook.

Oh sure, bring facts in to burst our balloon.

Hey Now... Duensing is my favorite current MLB player that was raised in Omaha.

What took you so long?.........geezer.

Nope. Three were crunch time.

They're all good to me.

Neil Allen is pretty good at inducing double plays.

[spinowner]

I'm pulling Gibson if I'm PM. Wicked hot day, comfortable lead, 4 days off coming up. Bullpen guys (even ours) can go the rest of the way.

You're quite the riverboat gambler.

The Royals were winning 7-0 in the 6th. Now they're not even winning anymore.

One page ago, keep up.

Rondon apparently comes in when one of the teams only has one run.

[Riverbrian]

I'm doing laundry now. 

 

I'm not totally clear on how to separate. 

 

So I'm doing my nice clothes in one load... and my... I don't care what I look like clothes in the other. 

 

 

[stocker08]

 

If I'm Terry Ryan

 

I think I'm looking at bullpen real hard at the deadline and that may be it. Unless there is any doubt about Sano for the stretch run. 

 

Then I'm looking for one big time power bat. Jay Bruce would be the one I'd target. 

 

 

Yup.  Bullpen for sure.  We may not need another bat.  Heck....we've got guys like Buxton and Arcia that don't really have a spot with the team right now.

As long as none of them are your wife's clothes, you're ok.

At least you can tell the difference.

[Vanimal46]

Oh my god it's Trevor May! Long time no see my friend....

[DiscGolfer]

May pitching, hopefully no need for another Dozier walk off
