Triple ick for that one.

 

She would have said at least "quadruple".

Twins 2017 version >>>>>>>>>> Twins 2016 version

 

Sano, Kepler, Dozier, Good Santana, Vargas, Castro, Santiago, Polanco Grossman, Hughes, and even last 7 day Buxton have been a real treat to watch, even if Bad Sanatana, Gibby have not been fun to watch.

 

 

This has been another Minnesota Twins hot sports opinion update

Do the think they just came up with Thunder and Lightning as the nickname for Sano and Buxton?  Is that what I heard?

Who is thunder and who is lightening? Is this a Penn and Teller type of situation?

[ashbury]

It's the fewer "how many seconds from home directly to the dugout" that I like.

Good to hear! They are the new BOOK IT

[Squirrel]

Is it windy at Target Field tonight?

[Jerr]

 

Yeah... As a teenager... I threw up on my date on the tilt a whirl. It stuck to the side and came at her in slow motion. 

 

She saw it coming and couldn't get away. It was tragic. 

A TILT-A-WHIRL????????????????

 

     

 

Sorry, that was mean, if I said that to you back then..... but now????

I'll take the under.

 

 

Wait...

Book it.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I feel like I'm watching the 2017 Twins play the 2014 Twins tonight.

 

(At least the 2017 Twins are winning)

[Riverbrian]

Escobar

 

Name him the starter on opening day and he struggles for the year

 

Name him as a back up on opening day and he hits great for the year

 

Gotta like his consistency.

I've never liked the Tilt-a-hurl.

We must have had this discussion before. Mrs Ash got to witness up close and personal yours truly in a similar predicament, on one of our early dates. I bet your girl dumped you immediately, right? Mrs Ash (spoiler alert) didn't. Amazing.

Good call, Nostradamus.

 

_{^{/ I was about to fire up the bb-ref.com game log tool, myself}}

Snepp just pulled those numbers out of his @@@.  It's not like anyone's gonna check.

[bizaff]

I like that Dick just mentioned why Berrios isn't up.  I buy it.

 

If you're not watching, it amounted to a lot of the strikeouts might be on chased pitches that MLB batters won't chase.

Is it windy at Target Field tonight?

It is in the booth with Bert.

[Oldgoat_MN]

Rosario's plate discipline is not that great.

Nice hit, though.

[Jerr]

I have to keep telling myself that YES these ARE Twins playing in these last few games!

You know what they say, 86.729% of all statistics on the Interwebs are made up.

Yeah... Immediate.  

 

She was speechless but yet I still knew it was an immediate dump by the way she tried to form words with her mouth but couldn't.

GODDMANTI NEVER ****ING BUNT.

[Jerr]

 

This one

That's not a tilt-a-whirl . 

Edited May 4, 2017 by Jerr

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Not a fan of the bunt there, but whatever. Buck made his money tonight.

[Aggies7]

Ugh, please be ok.
