Article: Game Thread: Twins v Brewers, 4/18 @ 7:10pm CT

Skies over Minneapolis looking threatening on the drive home.

Yeah ... weather shows a sharp rise in chance of rain around the 10pm mark. Hopefully the game will be done by then.

[Riverbrian]

 

I'm guessing the Twins have some kind of discounted fares. I know the Padres have frequent friar miles.

Good Night

So, once Sano doesn't get any starts at 3B while Plouffe is out....it's just stubbornness, right? The Manager and/or Front Office just trying to prove that they are right in moving Sano to RF?

 

I would not rule it out.

That's when  Sano blasts his second one of the night...this one into orbit.  

 

Y'know...one that "brings rain."

I was worried it might be misconstrued. The story behind it is this: as an extremist Twins Fan, I threw gasoline on Bernie Brewer and started him on fire. Now he will die.

[Pardon My Dinger]

Sano's at 3b when get to milliawaukay. Book it.

I hear they're moving everyone in shuttle busses over to US Bank stadium, where they will instead play Cricket.

They have ex-Twins... Garza, Boyer, Zach Jones, Josmil Pinto and Alex Presley in various locations of the organization.

 

Pinto wound up in the Colorado organization, Boyer is in the Brewers bullpen and right now is at Target Field, but I don't know where the others are at the moment. Probably not Cooperstown......

Don't forget to factor in the superdelegates.

The Twins sign Boyer, have him in their bullpen all year long.  Despite poor K numbers and FIP, he puts up a good ERA. Twins let him go to free agency and with his numbers from last year, gets a contract with the Brewers.  Milwaukee brings him in late in tie game tonight.  Sano goes yard. Twins winning streak goes to 4.  It was the long con.

Wouldn't Twins actually have to pay double airfare?

Blake, you have to turn the sad off man. Turn on the happiness, the optimism.

Or..Is that you really you, Mr. Cooper? I wonder if the reward is still available?

Don't you dare mess with my grandpa 'cause I know how to make those $5,000 look a whole lot less appealing if you do. We just try to keep this quiet around here.

Molitor just said on the pregame that Sano and Rosario have been taking some ground balls with Plouffe out. They followed that up to say that Plouffe is going on the DL.

He said they don't want to be short handed going into NL league game rules, which makes sense.

That means Polanco. I still have to think the Murphy/Kepler swap is due as well.

Good evening all, nice night for a ball game

Well Sonny, back on 11-24-71, I was in a bind. To be discreet I will keep it simple, not to be too detail oriented. I had been working for the man, and they cut my benefits and pension in August of 70. I reached my breaking point. My work was integral to their cause. I had to take matters into my own hands.

 

My plan worked out perfectly, I never meant to hurt any of the Northwest Orient Airlines employees, and I didn't. They were very accommodating. It certainly was a hassle, but once I got the money that I thought I definitely deserved, and the parachute, which was a stressful situation because I thought they would sabotage it, but fortunately they did not, and I jumped from that airplane and went on to live a very good life. It was a victimless crime and I have no regrets.

 

That jump was colder than a witches you know what and I suffered from frostbite, a pretty bad case I must admit, but I had to refrain from going to the hospital because I didn't want to make any noise. I still have nerve damage in my hands from that incident, but it was damn well worth it. I mapped this whole thing out and I had a colleague pick me up at a rendevous spot. He had to wait 7 hours because jumping from an airplane ain't none too accurate. But that little incident set me up for life and I have no regrets as I enter the ending chapter of my life.

 

They got what they deserved.
