intentional walks....stupid. make them pay!

[S.]

 

It's poetic that this game may turn on a bases loaded walk. Now it's Wilson up with the bases loaded and 2 outs. 

You spoke too soon again.

[IndianaTwin]

CRUSHED IT!

 

Well, close enough. 

[tvagle]

Larnach up with a man on...

Single to Right

[VATwinsFan]

Isn't this where a PB by Garver comes in?

[Shaitan]

Nolasco acquisition vs Nolasco acquisition in the win-loss column today (if this ever ends)

[Jerr]

This game, to me does not earn a chicken dinner......

[jimbo92107]

I think we just saw the best way to use Alan Busnitz: Closer.

Dick said it: "Ugliest win of the year".

 

He forgot to add: "In the major leagues".

 

We'll take it?

Do we have a choice?

[IndianaTwin]

And some of you thought that control problems would keep Hector Santiago from ever helping the Twins win games.

how about a nugget?

A reheated one.

Go with the tofu -- it tastes like chicken.

Last one-run win, I believe, was by same score against Cleveland in PR.

 

EDIT: Nope. We beat the Angels 5-4 in May.

[tvagle]

Ugggggggggly

Only thing that makes this ok is if the Orioles win today to keep the #RushforRutschman alive

[Mike Sixel]

I can't believe they intentionally walked someone. unreal. So bad. I'd consider firing the manager right now.

[mickeymental]

nothing like a good pitchers’ duel!

All wins are beautiful in my book.

[mrmpls]

AWESOME!!!!

[VATwinsFan]

And our heroes extend their lead over the Tigers for second place to 1-1/2 games.

[Kelly Vance]

LoMo, go ice your knee. Nice homer. 

Fernando, now cut that out. (I'm channeling Jack Benny)

[bighat]

 

that has to mean they are promoting someone, right?

 

Looks like the corresponding move is putting another minor leaguer (Jordan Pacheco) on the minor league DL, according to MLBtraderumors website. Meh. The story here is that the Twins are desperately seeking catching help/depth.

doesn't matter if they won't promote one for Wilson, who has no business in the majors right now.

Wow 13 pages. Kudos to you folks who stuck with the thread during this stinker.

Someone had to do it.  I'm glad it wasn't me.

[LVTwinsfan]

oh yay, the Twins beat the White Sox.

And his 2 hit game got his avg up to .192.

Or ever.
