Game Thread: Twins vs Mariners, 8/2/15, 1:10 PM CDT

Why not leave may in?

 

Sweet first impression by this Jensen guy

[Gibby]

 

Don't listen to him anymore for pete's sake. He's too easily excited.

 

At least we know that he'll go out in style in the booth ... no doubt calling an imaginary home run that ends up being caught. At least he'll die happy.

 

  With our luck, Bert has an intimate knowledge in CPR.

I'm practicing my breathing exercises of 7 years ago.

[Ultima Ratio]

Welcome Jepsen, nice inning shaping up.

[glunn]

In hindsight, Molitor should have stuck with May.

[DaveW]

Glad Jepsen has assimilated so quickly to the Twins way of doing things out of the pen!

[ScrapTheNickname]

I predict one of these teams is going to win. It's a call!

[DaveW]

Why bring him in to face Lefties? This makes no sense

[mikecgrimes]

I'm OK with challenging in that situation only if you've never failed to challenge a debatable call. Let your new pitcher wait around with a runner on 2nd nobody out, you've had this guy for 2 days you know how he handles pressure. Fire Paul molitor.

[Gibby]

 

meet george jepsen ...

 

  Daughter Judy...Jane his wife!

[ScrapTheNickname]

I like how grow adult men are afraid to say the word "testicles." Like we're all in second grade. Sheesh.

I agree that the call shouldn't have been challenged, but it's a bit extreme to call for Molitor's firing because of it.

[John Kelsey]

Settle down, Dick. 

[notoriousgod71]

Dick, shut the **** up. You think this guy has been struck out six times already.

[glunn]

Someone should be warming up in the bullpen now.

[notoriousgod71]

Nice trade, Terry.

  I played the role of Testicles when I was into Shakespearian Theatre.

His boy Elroy?

[ScrapTheNickname]

Jepsen 4.3 walks per 9 this year with Tampa Bay. RED FLAG.

Touch.

This is actually not one of the reasons I've wondered if I'm talking to a bunch of second graders on here before.

To quote a movie i seen recently...

 

"It's a fool who looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart..."

 

I think we just want to see what he's got, sink or swim.

[Aggies7]

hey new guy, don't be afraid to throw a strike.

[Gibby]

 

Touch.

 

  Ok, this make me choke on my own spit.

[formerly33]

I call a walk.

 

//That worked alright, and I didn't even have to post it.

Nothing wrong with second grade...

[Squirrel]

How many runners will Duensing allow to score?

[formerly33]

 

Nothing wrong with second grade...

I've often observed that it's better than twelfth ... and for more reason than one.

[Gibby]

  I was so bored in second grade, they let me skip 3rd.
