The commish? No, if they want to rest a few guys it's 100% their right.

E.g. if the Twins get eliminated, Kepler and Buxton both start. It happens.

Could Dozier win a Gold Glove?

 

(I seriously haven't compared second basemen. How about somebody smart chiming in.)

[Riverbrian]

 

What is that? It looks like urine that has already been drunk.

 

I'd Ick or Ish that but I don't which one to use... So I'll have to wait for ChiTown or JB to make a declaration.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I hate that fox track strike zone of 9 different flat sections. Real strike zones have dimension. Those curves to Zobrist broke through the front corner of the plate.

 

I know this because I am sitting up in the blimp above home plate

I think he's the best defensive 2B in the game unless I can think of someone better.

Huh?

Maybe tonight we'll set the all-time Twins Daily record for number of posts, which is?

Toss Him

Zobrist definitely had a beef, that thing was 6 inches outside.

I find it hard to believe that the folks who bought those cushy seats right behind the plate (I'm assuming they are season ticket holders) have not shown up for this one. I would assume each game this weekend would be sold out...can anyone enlighten me on why those folks would show up? Too cold?

[Craig Arko]

Oh, Sam Adams Oktoberfest. Prost.

You're young, lots of time to learn.

Being a free country and all I suppose but they won't.

LIke 95% of those seats are bought by companies our given to big advertisers. They may not be at the game at all, or may be smoozing in one of the many bars target field has.

No Morales all weekend would be good by me.

Haha. I mean it happens all the time, the Rangers don't "owe" anyone anything but themselves, its not their fault teams need them to win.

[twinsnorth49]

 

Solid beer.

 

I'm going with good old Brooklyn Pennant Ale (Seems like the right fit currently)

Going with a rotation of Summit EPA,  Fultons Sweet Child o Vine and The Ringer and capped with an Indeed Let it Roll.

 

Rinse, repeat.

I think North keeps track of that

The Strike Zone has been huge so far.

No Molson?

Corporate owned and they have failed to make a decent enough sale to spiff the client. 

[twinsnorth49]

That's a lot of touques in the crowd, what's the temp?

Oh dear God, no!

 

Perhaps a good local Half Pints, Little Scrapper in honour of this team.

There's a movement afoot in other markets to have those seats filled, even if not by the legal ticket holders. Giving them to kids and such. Tomorrow's Twins game is national so hopefully the Twins ticket office gets off their rears and makes sure those seats get used

Upper 50's with a wind there , about 70 in my apt....no wind.
