This kid showed metal! He is for real! He is on my "please dont trade him" list because I think he is going to be really good.

 

He's overcome so much already despite his young age, including injury, illness, the loss of his dog, dysentery and war.

Not liking the Harper call here

 

Nevermind. I'm liking the Harper call here.

[Mill1634]

Nice job by Harper!!!

 

Insurance, please.

 

Wonder if we go to Rogers, or for some reason try to squeak out a win without using him? Found it odd we didn't use him against Tauchman.

[Brock Beauchamp]

 

Ha!

 

On page 25

After the seventh inning, it was hard not to let the kid pitch.

 

And he came through big.

[Jham]

That Garver guy can hit kinda, eh

Still room on the bandwagon!

[a-wan]

Ok, now like 5 runs and Harper can pitch the 9th for the save and Rogers is saved for the game tomorrow.

[mrtwinsfan]

Twins new pen ??   at least we r trying other guys,, 

[ashbury]

Watching that movie now, you wonder how many chargers would have been brought on the nerds. Breaking and entering, assault, surveillance etc

I thought it was a documentary.

[glunn]

Insurance run(s) PLEASE

[MNT1996]

I'm very curious why Stashak was warming up. Is it for the 9th?

Harper is warmed up. Let it rip.

 

I would have gone Rogers but now that Harper is out there, let's just hold our breath and hope for the best.

 

It's a long season and the team doesn't get a day off for seven more days.

I don’t even want to say my screenname from those days. I’m sure it would be remembered. I was young, and a troll

Well, don't worry about me. I never was a troll. Just a 16-18 year old Twins fanatic back around 1999-2001. I don't remember my screenname back then though. But that ESPN board was a lot of fun! Glad to have a good site like Twins Daily now!

breaking balls break the other way there.

 

I know

 

He has a very impressive screw ball.

Louis Thorpe, good job. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

How come nobody ever wrote a song about Eau Claire?

Someone wrote a song about Rochester... Is that good enough?

Let's get a couple and sit Rogers

[Bandit34]

Holy smokes! We could win this thing! Now get 5 more runs please!

[glunn]

Double ninja'd, but great minds think alike.

I’ve had the same screen name for almost 20 years

[Jham]

I never heard this. Whoever said it ought to be fired. That's as dumb a statement one can make from the front office.

In fairness, it could have just been an of the cuff prediction after thinking through the team media guide.

In case we put up two crooked numbers here.

[Danchat]

Strat-O-Matic update: I'm in the top of the 8th, and the Yankees are up 11-9, but we've rallied the last 4 runs in the last two innings. Polanco is 5 for 5 and Thorpe threw 3 scoreless innings from the 5th to the 7th.

I remember posting on the Timberwolves ESPN board a few months prior to Felipe Lopez signing with the Wolves. Which was February 28, 2001, so 18+ years.

 

And I was hoping for a HR from Kepler.

[DocBauer]

Appreciate it very much, but thats always made me uncomfortable...Did 2 tours in Corps, made it back alive (3 of my guys did not), all for a reason we were unsure as to why we were there in the first place..apologies for getting political, but my genereation had it good. I have never been disrespected as a combat vet...WW2, Nam, Korea...those war vets are the ones im in awe of..I love the USMC, but not the nonsense overseas or the govt for that matter...k, im done...lol . But for real, much appreciated.

Regardless, thank you for your service, sir.

 

You ARE an American hero and should always have a tip of the cap. It is not hyperbole. It is honest people being honest with you.

 

# salute
