Game Thread: Twins @ Milwaukee Brewers @ 7:10 pm CT

[Aggies7]

That franchise is already taken by some Nevada outfit.

You’re thinking of the bunny ranch

[Blake]

 

We play with fire Of the dumpster variety

 

[tvagle]

Belisle warming Scared Reed and Rogers into performing...now let's see how it works with the rest of the pen

That franchise is already taken by some Nevada outfit.

All sorts of ranches out there.

[Blake]

 

You don't earn a .190 BA by hitting them where they ain't.

Somebody is getting in his pre-trade deadline game thread workout.

[S.]

Very nice catch.

[Aggies7]

Dang. Joe has been stinging it tonight

[alskntwnsfn]

Was LaTroy just narrating the media guide, again, when Maher hit that?

[Blake]

 

We have a one run lead and 4 full innings of the bullpen to come... and you guys know how good the Twins are at winning one run games.

Surprised Dick hasn't brought it up yet.

Bert left him directions how to do the job...

[David HK]

Eddie R needs a rest.

 

I think that Chicago weekend took a lot out of him.

 

Surprised he didn't sit today, with the lefty on the mound.

This is not Wrigley field. That's why.

[tvagle]

Another non-competitive AB for Doze...might have to package him with Gibson to Stl for Martinez...the one with the iron skittle at 1st base

[LaBombo]

Maybe it wasn't just a Wrigley thing and he's permanently transformed into Ted Williams now. We'll know for sure if he downs a MiG on this road trip.

One of my most common phrases I find myself using this season is, "God, Dozier, you're garbage."

[jun]

I am not sure if Dozier can keep his OPS over 700 for the rest of the season.

Molitor not sold on the cybermetrics of platoon splits yet, but I'm confident he'll come around in the next few seasons.

[tvagle]

Duke's socks have to be illiegal for a pitcher to wear

"Coach I couldn't pick up the ball...lost it in his left sock"

[David HK]

Thanks, Audra.

 

"Next contestant, Sybil Fawlty, from Torquay, special subject, the bleeding obvious..."

 

Never would have guessed Astudillo liked pasta, or that his nickname would be anything like "Tortuga..."

 

Didn't know his cousin signed, though, so, there's that.

Surely they still have off-season signee Ryan LaMarre? That's all they needed for a RH 4th OF!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

He will be well versed by the time of his next interview, for sure

[tvagle]

New BP plan...you pitch until you give up a hit

[yarnivek1972]

Rogers replaced by Duke even though the pitcher’s spot didn’t bat?

 

A move only the MOY ® could get away with.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Provus goes to the inning break saying the Twins lead by 4

 

 

LOL

[LaBombo]

At least they talked him out of the goalie pads.

The Twins are only carrying 9 relievers.

[Blake]

 

Thanks, Audra.

One of the funniest all time shows. Ended too soon. That and Black Adder.

[LaBombo]

 

Bremer just credited Grossman's big night in the cleanup spot to Molitor's audiophile ear picking up the more solid contact Robbie's bat has been making lately.

 

And with that revelation, Dick takes the early lead in MLB broadcasting's prestigious weekly 'Aquatic Flight Over Deadly Sea Creatures' Award...

 

[Vanimal46]

LaTroy has zero chemistry working with Dick. I don't think he's the next analyst

[David HK]

 

I don't understand why they don't let Escobar pinch hit for Wilson who is the worst hitter on the team.

I don't understand why they pinch hit for Gibson who is the best hitter on the team with a perfect average with the second worst hitter on the team.

Can anyone tell me why?

Only MoY knows for sure...

 

And Esco IS the emergency catcher, after all...
