Article: Game Thread: Twins v Yankees, 7/24 @ 7:10pm CT

LOL Rosario.

[DaveW]

Nice to see Rosario have a real nice game as well, seems like he was scuffling a bit lately, 3 doubles will certainly help turn things around.

[Brock Beauchamp]

 

How many HR could one expect out of a 3-4-5 lineup next year of Sano, Dozier and Plouffe? 100?

I'd be happy with 80.

So Mrs Chief and I were cleaning out the bedroom last night, and I found a box under some clothes in the back of the closet.  Inside were a couple eggs and over $300 in cash.

 

"Sweet," I thought.  I asked Mrs Chief what the deal was, and she looked at me sadly and said "Every time I've cheated on you through the years, I've put an egg in the box."

 

I was taken aback, of course, but tried to put on a brave and loving front.  "That's all right, honey.  Twice in 34 years isn't so bad."

 

"Welllllll," she said, "I've been selling them over the years at .99 cents a dozen."

Dude... When you are watching the Twins game... You are going to have a look around every once in awhile and see what your wife is up to.

Save some hits for the rest of the series, guys!

Whatever for?

[JB_Iowa]

Astros beat Royals, 4-0.

Santana's gotcher back on this.

One of the weirdest experiences in my life was stopping in a bar in rural Scotland, hearing John Denver come on the jukebox, and then witnessing the entire bar start singing along to the song.

 

Scotland is ****ing weird, man.

[ScrapTheNickname]

If $ wasn't an object, and everything was equal, it sure would be nice to see Tulowitzki in a Twins uniform.

[ScrapTheNickname]

I predict Dozier hits a home run.

[DaveW]

 

Astros beat Royals, 4-0.

I hate to say it, but maybe it would have been best if the Royals would have won? The Stro's are a wild card contender with us.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Yeah, okay.

[DaveW]

Dozier hits far.

[mickeymental]

the yankees are soft.

[spinowner]

*Yawn*...Just another double-digit win over the Yankees.

No, I think the Astros make the playoffs no matter what happens. With the acquisition of Kazmir, I think they're essentially a lock for a WC berth (I don't see anyone passing the Angels).

 

It'd be nice to pass Houston but I think they're in the playoffs no matter what happens with the Twins. They're a good team that just got better.

[DaveW]

 

I'd be happy with 80.

Using tonight as a sample size I would say 480 is the more accurate number.

What the world needs now, is weird, sweet weird.

winner.

[Riverbrian]

The Bullpen should be OK now. 

[DaveW]

I think Kazmir is awesome, but he is always a ticking time bomb, and one pitcher like him probably adds only 2 wins tops the rest of the year for them. The Twins, even as streaky as they have been, have been outplaying (winning) more than the Astros the past several weeks (month)

You're assuming a lot here, Dave.

 

They'd have to avoid any lengthy DL stints.

10 zip Twins 4 HR heading to 9th CBU
