Game Thread: Twins @ Marlins, 7/30, 6:10 CT

[ashbury]

Anyone else checking what direction Cincinnati is from Progressive Field?

Just a stone's baseball's throw.

[wabene]

Damn satisfying win!!!

[PDX Twin]

Nice win. This is the kind of game they need to win, but have not been winning of late.

[bighat]

A nice low-scoring win! Bullpen looked good! Odorizzi! Sano and Buxton!

[Aggies7]

Rogers looks good when he’s not asked to get 9+ innings a week

[Brock Beauchamp]

His interview with La Velle five hours after he was traded, he sounded like Jeff Spicoli after a pot of coffee.

Well yeah, but he’s from SoCal. That doesn’t mean anything. I went I high school about 90 miles from where he was born and knew kids who spoke English perfectly but didn’t speak a lick of Spanish and similar kids who could speak Spanish without an American accent at all.

[PDX Twin]

And the magic number goes down by 2 today!

Nice win . duffey- rodgers and even Romo

[Mill1634]

TWINS WIN!!!!

 

Lead is now to three, and Sergio Romo and Rogers did exactly what they are supposed to do. Shut down the opponents. The bats weren't there tonight, which means we probably come back with 10+ runs tomorrow. Will be very interesting to see what moves are made between now and tomorrow at 3PM central. 

 

Have a great night y'all!!!

 

Go Twins!!!

[VATwinsFan]

That's our bullpen.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Winnah.

 

Twins lead II-I after 9.

Good pitching nite and a little bit more breathing room.

Nice win. This is the kind of game they need to win, but have not been winning of late.

 

Coupled with a Cleveland loss, to boot.

[twinssporto]

GO TWINS!!!

Recalibrating direction from Kaufmann Stadium to Cincinnati

 

Bauer's toss into the water fountains was his way of indicating where he'd like to be traded...Chicago or Milwaukee seem more likely his choice...so they send him to Cincinnati

[SwainZag]

Lol Duffey just said in the post game interview that he told Rocco before the game if he needed a power hitting righty off the bench he's his man.

[Danchat]

 

Coupled with a Cleveland loss, to boot.

We are also just 2 games behind the Yankees, as they've lost 4 of their last 5 games. Also just 3 games behind the Astros.

[mrtwinsfan]

 

I think Puig could be bad for a clubhouse. Which is good for Cleveland.

CLEVELANDS MANAGER TERRY, IS A STRICT COACH, RIGHT TREVOR?

[Aggies7]

Where’s that Indians fan guy? Was at the shore all weekend. Did he get booted

[David HK]

 

Heh heh, Bauer traded to the Reds.  So the Indians 'further discipline' for tossing the ball into the stands was to trade him to a non-contender.

They must be really p*ssed if they sentenced him to Cincinnati.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Fun times!

[Squirrel]

Romo is going to be a fun one to watch.

It was my understanding there would be no geography.

Cincy with a trio of Castillo/Bauer/Gray, pretty nice top of the rotation.

[mrtwinsfan]

MARNEY  TO ROMO , UR A HUMAN RED BULL, L.O.L.

[Darius]

Big win. With the lead back up to 3 and the Indians with a tough schedule, it’s foot on throat time.

 

Sano is a monster right now. It’s really fun to watch. Buxton is clobbering the ball since returning (all we do is win when he plays). They’re kind of saving the season right now.

[Aggies7]

We are also just 2 games behind the Yankees, as they've lost 4 of their last 5 games. Also just 3 games behind the Astros.

Let’s just avoid playing the Yankees. I’m not sure if they’re a better or worse matchup than any other team, I just know the history and can’t take another series with them.

[DocBauer]

Romo and Rogers are heroes!

 

And Duffey...Duffey...Duffey is again a changed man and emerging more and more as a real option and like a tree falling in the woods nobody notices
