sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Some one pointed out that we just passed the 40 game mark. Half way through the first half of the season. Zeno would be proud. If he knew about Major League Baseball. I am taking a cue and writing half of a game thread intro. The good half, i hope. When i finish my parade, maybe i'll write the other half? Only one way to find out. Things to think about. 1. Winning. I'm positive about this. It takes thinking to win. 2. Numbers. It helps to have more. 3. Bingo... It's nice song, eh? How do you sing it backwards? _ _ _ GO! Twins Kyle Gibson ( R) 1. Jorge Polanco (S) SS2. Jonathan Schoop (R ) DH3. C.J. Cron (R ) 1B4. Eddie Rosario (L) LF5. Willians Astudillo (R ) C6.

bighat Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Cleveland is blanking Baltimore 7-0 late in the game today, looks like the Twins won't be gaining any ground. Motivation for a sweep!
Mill1634 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 This is about the worst lineup Rocco can throw out there, and it is still a scary lineup vs a left hander.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Author Posted May 19, 2019 So wise folk of TD. I ain't been paying attention. How's this Luis Arraez fellow? And i've heard of this Sano, but for a while... Pretty atheletic as i recall?
Dave The Dastardly Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 After careful screening of the announced line-ups plus error prone calculation using proprietary formulas cleverly devised by a slightly inebriated quasi-gentleman of German-Irish descent, said calculations further refined by blindfolded dart throwing by the same quasi-gentleman using either hand, I put the over/under for this titanic clash at 4 runs for the Twins. I might be over. But I could be under the coffee table.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Author Posted May 19, 2019 Coffee tables are pretty low...
mrtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Encarsion. for seattle, has lit up Gibby in the past
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Author Posted May 19, 2019 Oh, and my random tale... One of the fellows i paraded with today was from Woonsocket, and upon hearing i was a Twins fan, regailed me with tidbits about or coach, who apparently hails from the area.
LVTwinsfan Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Latroy Hawkins sucks, the job belongs to Morneau
LVTwinsfan Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 So when do they finally move Buxton out of the #9 spot

There once was a man from WoonsocketWho had a mouse in his pocketThey talked about RoccoAnd ate a few tacosDidn't run the parade but they walked it
operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Great start from Polanco!!!! Let's keep it going!!!
operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Encarsion. for seattle, has lit up Gibby in the pastI've never heard of him!
operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Lol What a horrible challenge!
Mill1634 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 huh???? There is no way that they could conclude he was out.
operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Lol What a horrible challenge!Who am I to talk! lol
MNT1996 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 what?? That didn't look conclusive at all.
bighat Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Absolutely terrible to see that overturned. The only possible reason for that is that someone in MLB wants to keep games competitive or something, or favor home teams when challenges are made.
MNT1996 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Of course the review HQ in NYC is against us. Just another reason to despise that city.
operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Cron is safeApparently not! What a crappy reversal!!!
LVTwinsfan Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Gibson is good when he’s attacking the zone, he has always had a tendency to nibble, especially under pressure...let’s see good Gibson today
MNT1996 Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 It's annoying how much Gibson nibbles on the corners
LVTwinsfan Verified Member Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 3rd play by Encarnocion that could have easily gone bad for him
