Twins vs A's, 08-20-2012, 9:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Lineups TBA.

[Ultima Ratio]

Uhh.... TBA has come and gone.

[GCTF]

Ridding the roster of some dead weight has inspired them to a first inning run!

[GCTF]

Uhh.... TBA has come and gone.

 

The bad news...still no Span.

The good news...he's now less than a week away from his DL trip.

[Westgaard66]

That friggin cow bell is annoying.

[Ultima Ratio]

Brian Duensing ladies and gentlemen, Twins starting pitcher.

[Ultima Ratio]

Uhh.... TBA has come and gone.

 

The bad news...still no Span.

The good news...he's now less than a week away from his DL trip.

 

Exactly

[twinsnorth49]

That'll do, no runs, unbelievable.

[Guest USAFChief]

I'm too lazy to look it up...when's the last time the Twins led after 1?

[Ultima Ratio]

Don't look now, Florimonsy is hitting .400. Will he be the next Ted Williams?

[Ultima Ratio]

Tough call there Bensy.

[twinsnorth49]

Mastro keeps getting it done.

[jokin]

Don't look now, Florimonsy is hitting .400. Will he be the next Ted Williams?

 

I'd like to go on record that I'd settle for Honus Wagner.

[twinsnorth49]

You know, I think Mastro has better acceleration than Revere

[IdahoPilgrim]

I'm trying to remember, has Gardenhire been thrown out at all this year? The last couple of years it seemed like he was getting tossed once every couple of weeks or so.

[Ultima Ratio]

I'm trying to remember, has Gardenhire been thrown out at all this year? The last couple of years it seemed like he was getting tossed once every couple of weeks or so.

Yeah, back in April. Maybe at the Yankees one game I think.

[Ultima Ratio]

Flormonsy now nearing the .500 average mark....seriously, nice debut guy.

[Ultima Ratio]

Will Mauer work a walk?... sorry, couldn't resist.

[twinsnorth49]

Happy now Joe C?

[IdahoPilgrim]

A couple nights overdue, but welcome nonetheless!

[glunn]

Flormonsy now nearing the .500 average mark....seriously, nice debut guy.

 

And his defense seems as good as advertised.

[TheLeviathan]

Man, I really like what we've seen from Florimon so far - I'm getting more and more optimistic about this kid every time I see him.

[glunn]

Deunsing has pitched a good game.

[twinsnorth49]

A QS from Brian Duensing, who'd a thunk.

[glunn]

Damn -- Plouffe came within a couple of feet of a home run on that one.

[Ultima Ratio]

A QS from Brian Duensing, who'd a thunk.

Not I said the fly with the polka dot tie.

[twinsnorth49]

Man, I really like what we've seen from Florimon so far - I'm getting more and more optimistic about this kid every time I see him.

 

Makes you wonder how on earth he was hitting .259 with a .318 OBP in Rochester, I know it's early but he sure looks capable of a lot more than that.

 

Maybe it's Joe Vavra......procede.

[twinsnorth49]

Flormonsy now nearing the .500 average mark....seriously, nice debut guy.

 

And his defense seems as good as advertised.

 

Apparently he plays SS, LF and short centre, all at the same time.

[Guest USAFChief]

I've been mildly impressed with Fien every time he enters a game.

[Ultima Ratio]

I didn't get a chance to review where Duensing's pitches were in the zone tonight, but perhaps he had a chat with Diamond about how to get the ball down and on the corners. Let's hope the this outing is a real change rather than an aberration.
