Game Thread: Brewers @ Twins, 8/8 @ 7:10 CT

Rosario hit the cut off man! I don't believe it. Maybe he is sick.

[h2oface]

I HATE THE NEW INTENTIONAL WALK RULE!!!!!

[70charger]

Hey, they left the juicehead on third. Good for them.

 

Still looking for a bit more efficiency out of Mejia.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

You mean the Twins allowed just a single run in an inning? Feels like Christmas!

[Mike Sixel]

Just like a sacrifice! Molitor must be excited.

[snepp]

Mad Max.

[70charger]

Does anyone else see Kepler kind of picking up a few Mauer-isms at the plate? Inside ball, pull the hands in close to the body and watch it into the catcher's mitt, head down...

[70charger]

Joe West should be suspended for the rest of his career.

[PDX Twin]

I think he Keples as well as anyone in baseball!

Excuse me: I've never Keppled, and this is a family site.

[DocBauer]

Don't you just love Kepler's swing? So easy and smooth. You can see the power, but also the natural athleticism. Still think he's going to hit lefties eventually.

[snepp]

Gasm of the Bremer variety.

 

 

 

 

 

Caught shy of the warning track.

[Aggies7]

Mejia is maddenening.

 

And now he's possibly injured and out of the game.

[h2oface]

Gladden keeps talking about Mejia making good pitches. Making good pitches for the Brewers to hit, maybe...... 7 hits in 3 offical innings.... and an intentional walk after going 3-0.

[S.]

Oh hell. That sort of exit from a game is never good. He was walking fine on his own so I'm guessing tore or strained something in his arm. 

[70charger]

Wiggling fingers, shaking out his arm. That don't look good at all...

[PDX Twin]

I guess they will have a spot for Santiago now. 

[h2oface]

I hate it when I go back to see a play over and then forget to forward again, and think I am watching the game live...........

[h2oface]

Which pitcher is charged with this batter?

[S.]

 

Wiggling fingers, shaking out his arm. That don't look good at all...

Yep. Looked like he knew immediately something wasn't right. Please don't need TJ surgery, our pitching depth is too damn thin already.

[Mike Sixel]

Crap. Can I type crap? Crap!

[Monkeypaws]

I hope it's nothing serious  with Meija. I don't know I've watched him throw before tonight. Good looking big power lefty. He reminds me of Berrios last year, not trusting his stuff, nibbling, lots of pitches out of the stretch. 

[Aggies7]

Oh, duff, almost out of it

[h2oface]

Yup. Same recent Duffey. No relief relief.

[ashbury]

Joe West should be suspended for the rest of his career.

Where would you find suspension cables strong enough to accomplish that feat?

[Aggies7]

Ugly ugly ugly

[S.]

Well, we might get the displeasure of seeing our whole bullpen tonight. 

[Aggies7]

We want Gee

[Darius]

Where would you find suspension cables strong enough to accomplish that feat?

Levitation is the future.

[DocBauer]

Still like that play by Polanco. Didn't turn out the way you'd want it, but a nice play.
