Game Thread: Twins vs Brewers, 5/28/19, 7:10 CT

Can someone shut up the person who continues to do the blood curdling scream?

 

Preferably without it resulting in a blood-curdling scream.

[ashbury]

Dozier

[ashbury]

Indeed, especially for a team that has seemingly always been known for better hitting than pitching. 

A certain kind of hitting.

[bird]

 

Dozier

 

Poor Warshington. Dozier's a starter there.

[John Kelsey]

This Parker game was going to happen sometime.

I could go either way on that.

[PDX Twin]

Just saw a mini-ad for orthopedic care featuring Buxton. I assume this is not a coincidence...

[Aggies7]

This is getting ticklish

[DocBauer]

Last batter for Parker if he doesn't get him?

[twins_89]

Parker on the mound never gives me a feeling of confidence. He's been successful this season, but it often seems like he's on the edge of imploding

[bird]

 

I'd give you one, but you probably haven't heard of him.

 

 

Go.

[LaBombo]

 

I don’t know, that’s a low threshold. Even Steve Lombardozzi did it. It only took him four seasons too.

 

[PDX Twin]

Yelich sure hasn't looked like a star in this series...

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

having a broken dryer sucks. Fixing it is supremely satisfying. Listening to the Twins own the Brewers during... time for a cigarette ... after I check for gas leaks

Zen and the Art of Dryer Repair.

Please don't use Rogers in the 9th with a 3 run lead and the bottom half of the order. I'd like to see Littell get a shot at the save, but looks like May may be given the chance. 

[DocBauer]

BTW...I'm giving Smeltzer extra credit for high pants and showing the hose.

[70charger]

Insurance time!

[bird]

 

Yadier Molina's backup. 

 

 

No peeking in the Google Machine.

 

Bruce Look.

[stringer bell]

 

I've often thought it would be a good game within the game in dull game threads:

 

Obscure catcher names. Go. Tom Prince.

John Sevcik, Jerry Zimmerman, Russ Nixon

[Mill1634]

Schoop has been pretty poor as of late

[PDX Twin]

How about Hal Narragon's replacement as Earl Battey's backup?

[drock2190]

 

Yelich sure hasn't looked like a star in this series...

 

He's no Tommy La Stella that's for sure!

[jimbo92107]

I've never told anybody this, but...

 

I used to hear about Prizm Research on the radio. I thought they were saying, "Prison Research," and I was horrified. Right out in the open, they're admitting it. Medical experiments on prisoners! Won't somebody save these people??

[DocBauer]

Please don't use Rogers in the 9th with a 3 run lead and the bottom half of the order. I'd like to see Littell get a shot at the save, but looks like May may be given the chance.

 

Day off tomorrow, Littell could be a smart idea. Guessing they don't want him in this high of a leverage point yet?

[mrtwinsfan]

 

Dozier

Perfect!!

[DocBauer]

Schoop has been pretty poor as of late

Thought I heard he's been better on the road so far this year, for whatever reason.

[LaBombo]

Even when you know what they're saying it still sounds like 'prison'.

 

Still, there was a part of me that was like 'Well, I hope the pharma giants at least pass the savings along to the consumers'.

Poor Adrianza...can't hit, can't field, no versatility, no value.

[ashbury]

NOW Rocco's pinch-runner master plan is revealed! Adrianza's actually in there for his bat!

[PDX Twin]

You're forgetting "can't run."
