I'm liking Morneau in the booth. Have they said how many games the different fill in guys are each getting this season?

I was just thinking the same thing.

[drock2190]

Cron said before the ballgame, "Mauer has nothing on me"

 

Then the infielders said "We shall see about that!"

I like Morneau, also like Hawkins for color commentary. Marney Gellner did play by play for a couple Spring Training games. I really liked her calls of the games.

 

It would be refreshing to hear Gellner and Hawk or Morneau for a few games.

[hybridbear]

And now Kepler... *sigh* I was really hoping this season would go better. But the Twins can't catch a break tonight! It's very rare that I get to watch a game so I really wish they could at least play well on the rare occasions that I get to watch.

I mean have you checked?

[wabene]

Bert's got a lite schedule this year we will get a smorgasbord of color my friends

Hawkins is good. I'd be happy to have him and Morneau splitting a season and none of the other fill in color guys.

I'll drink to that!

[wabene]

We need to start plunking. This high and tight on Cruz can't stand!

[DiscGolfer]

The rare Rosario walk, that's a drink. His first time on base this year I think

[bighat]

He walked a couple of days ago also. No hits yet.

[twinssporto]

WOW!  Nice base running!

[LaBombo]

And a heads-up baserunning play to finish it off. I'm almost surprised he didn't ride in on a unicorn.

[DiscGolfer]

Nice base running!

[VATwinsFan]

Saw Rosario trying to score before he even got to 2d.

[Danchat]

Eddie!!! I yelled at him for going home like that, but it turns out he knew what he was doing. Whew!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Because Diaz, the third base coach, was holding the unicorn at third?

[operation mindcrime]

Woooooooooo!!! CROM! & Eddie!

[S.]

Sometimes when you have Buxton on your team, you forget other players are fast too.

[bighat]

Eddie doing his baserunning tricks again! Love that!

[ashbury]

Some lazy outfielding by Gordon in left. Eddie takes advantage.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

With Cron still on first, the base coaches were apparently 0-2 on that play, but we’ll take it.

Nobody puts baby in the corner or tries to stop a unicorn.  Everyone knows that.

[FlauerPauer]

Marwin's lack of arm at third base is a little scary. Dude seems to barely make every throw he makes.

[DiscGolfer]

Seems like lots of lack luster defense in the OF from the central so far, from what I've seen.

[hybridbear]

With Cron still on first, the base coaches were apparently 0-2 on that play, but we’ll take it.

Yeah! Why in the world didn’t Cron advance to 2B? Eddie only scored cuz the cutoff man didn’t think he was going cuz it was insane to try to score on that play.

[bighat]

What do you all think of the advertisements during the games now? Reeks of desperation.

Well, advertisements during Twins games have always reeked of desperation.
