I agree with Mr. Morris in that Gibson definitely has the stuff to be a good MLB starter. All he has to do is take the ball every time it is his turn and give the Twins a chance.

 

Unfortunately the Gibson the Twins need is not the Gibson the Twins always get.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Hard to keep score in the dark...

 

But i am trying.

[David HK]

 

If he had a car...
Maybe he could car per diem?

Nyuk nyuk nyuk!  

 

Although you might need to change that avatar from "tuba guy" to "sad trombone."

I screen-grabbed this gameday shot for just this occasion.  Look how Berrios busted this guy inside.  Now if Gibby could take a hint from that....   I don't even mind that AB ended up as a walk.  He showed he could hammer it in there.

Gotta score here.

[yarnivek1972]

Sano isn't bunting?!?!???!

[Aggies7]

That picture of a 16 year old Miguel was terrifying

[PDX Twin]

Need Sano to lay one down for the team here???

[Aggies7]

Goodness, not a good swing on that 2-1

[Aggies7]

Sano changed the whole at bat by chasing a dirt ball

[David HK]

I can't watch, so I'm just going to assume.  

 

Miggy with a couple of Herculean cuts, trying to hit a 7-run HR?

Either that or a checked swing, amirite?

[70charger]

Not a good result for Escobar, but he made Price throw about a dozen pitches there. 

[Aggies7]

POLANCO!

 

Man that missed a homer by an INCH at most

[70charger]

Well done, Polanco!

[PDX Twin]

Polanco polanks one!

Let's hope he doesn't work too hard with them.

[TwinsCD]

I wonder how much buyer's remorse the Red Sox have with Price.

[Aggies7]

Maybe two more innings for price

[Aggies7]

I wonder how much buyer's remorse the Red Sox have with Price.

One mans buyers remorse is another's dream

[kydoty]

One more bite of breakfast this morning and Polanco has himself a three run homer.

Two more bites and he strikes out...

[Aggies7]

Well that was quick.

Good recovery by Gibby after that home run! He could have crumbled!

[Aggies7]

Good recovery. That was melt down territory earlier for kyle

[David HK]

Don't look now, but Gibby gave up a dinger (solo dinger!)  and didn't implode.  

 

Hmmmm.....

[brettbrett88]

Copy cats lol

[Blake]

Okay, I like the Kyle Gibson who gives up the run, shrugs it off then proceeds to get the next three batters.
