Will we get to see a Gibby shutout? Or will Paulie call upon his fellow eastsider to come in and give the Royals offense the self-esteem boost they desperately need with a 6-run 9th?

Btw, saw an excellent Miracle game tonight. They win 4-1. Hoping to go again tomorrow, and if they are in the playoffs, Tuesday, too.

Or maybe you don't put needless innings on Gibson's arm, and let him leave with his desperately needed self-esteem boosted?

and miles to go before you sleep?

 

(looked it up. I'm a bit miffed as I should have recognized Frost.)

I don't know how pervasive it was but, my Minnesotan junior high school education included memoriIng this specific poem.

 

(and now i'm searching for more words to fit he song "frosty the poet" beyond "was a melancholy soul")

No. Here to visit my parents and that would take too much time away; and I head home Thursday morning.

Nico Goodrum, y'all! Good first at-bat... Big swing at that first pitch, worked the count to 3-2, then splintered a bat and sprinted to first. Not bad. Super-utility man. I bet he could throw a few strikes, too...!

Not sure I get taking Gibson out after 81 pitches.

 

Nothing else to prove.  No sense in wasting his arm in a 14-0 game.

Good thing Taylor has a large safety net to work with.

It has been awhile since he has pitched. I imagine the Twins wanted to get him in there. His only role in this series in a close game is likely pitching to Hosmer and Moustakas. Only 13 pitches. He should be fine tomorrow.

 

I would guess Turley and Perkins for the 8th and 9th. Maybe not Turley. They might want to hold him to be the long guy if needed tomorrow.

Wow, did Gordon fall off or what?

 

.220 last year, .198 this year,

 

20 million per the next two years, maybe a third at 23, for a 33 year old. I take back any bad thing I may have said Joe Mauer
