Article: Game Thread: Twins @ Red Sox, 7/21 @ 6:10pm CT

To be fair, Buxton looked really, really lost against Wright the last time the Twins played the Sox. 

What is he gaining by sitting on the bench?  Does he look less lost there?  All I'm saying is that he needs to be playing.  If he's going to sit 3 or 4 times a week, send him to AAA to play every day.

Enough already with the baseball talk! Clean up your act, or you'll be riding the pine.

You don't have to convince me, I'd play him every day too. I'm sure the rationale is that they don't want to him to lose confidence and technique by striking out 4 times against a knuckleballer. Whether he has those things right now is up for debate anyways.

The movie ruined Green Lantern for the unfaithful...

 

Canadian words are spelled wicked cool.

 

St. Patrick's should be an international holiday despite the fact it is an Irish one, and everybody is Irish on it.

 

People lose their hair.

 

Oh and Buxton shouldn't be sitting. I giess that means he should stand throughout the game...

 

Did i miss anything?

 

Oh, various Terry Ryan withdrawal symptoms...

I also forgot to weigh in on the subject.

 

As a kid, i decided the only one worth my quarter was the vector graphics StarWars game.

That'll do, Don, that'll do.

 

I am pleased to point out that the number is perhaps not first on the list of ridiculous things in this thread...

On this day 10 years ago... link: http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIN/MIN200707210.shtml

 

Twins beat the Angels 5-2. Twins hit 3 bombs and Neshek gets the win behind a strong outing from Bonser. Twins infield features a trio of Punto, Castillo, and Bartlett. 

 

Fun to look back at those old teams sometimes.
