Game Thread: Twins @ Marlins DEADLINE EDITION 7/31 @ 7:10 PM CST

This has to be Carole's fault. I much prefer the Revolve adds... just sayin. 

Hey ... you clicked on it.

[PDX Twin]

 

I call BS if you say it tastes just like the real thing. 

 

Try it.

[Squirrel]

 

I call BS if you say it tastes just like the real thing. 

You'll have to do a taste comparison and let us know.

[PDX Twin]

 

Hope that's not the case ... that would be seriously wrong ... illegal, even. (Right?)

 

Well, I'm trusting them!

 

Actually, we tend to get stomach issues on the occasions when there is something like chicken broth in a dish, so I'm pretty confident.

Poppen probably is pitching his way to Rochester.

Well, someone will have to go down to make room for Dyson on the 25-man.

[PDX Twin]

Yup, and it makes sense to use that person tonight.

10-4 Indians. Another 3 run homer for Indians.

[PDX Twin]

10-4 Cleveland.

[Squirrel]

Sheesh ... if they'd have let Berrios keep pitching, this game would be over.

[PDX Twin]

We can't blow this, right?

[stringer bell]

 

Poppen probably is pitching his way to Rochester. 

I meant by pitching two scoreless innings and rendering himself unavailable tomorrow, but if he gives up some runs, he might be optioned on performance.

[MNT1996]

Great bullpen management Rocco

[Squirrel]

oh well FFS!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[wsnydes]

This is more interesting than it should be...

[PDX Twin]

We can't blow this, right??

[70charger]

Well that ain't good.

[stringer bell]

I guess Poppen did pitch his way to Rochester.

[tvagle]

 

Yup, and it makes sense to use that person tonight.

Are you suggesting Berrios?

[MNT1996]

Amazing call taking Berrios out of the game. Truly amazing.

[PDX Twin]

Van Mil would have had that! (RIP)

[ashbury]

Great bullpen management Rocco

Rocco gets credit for the 8 shutout innings, though, right?

[HawksNest]

Say it ain't so!

 

Poppen, long term, seems like he could be an option but man oh man, that's garbage right there

[nicksaviking]

He would have been my choice to go anyway.

[tvagle]

Hit Me Slider...was hit

[ashbury]

Van Mil would have had that! (RIP)

Ooo. Too soon.

[twinssporto]

Rocco: Hi Mr. Poppen, can you come into my office when you get showered and dressed?

 

Poppen: Sure coach. Anything you wanna talk about?

 

Rocco: No. Here's your ticket back to Rochester. No need to see me after showering.  

[jz7233]

Rogers, Dyson, Romo, Duffey, Harper, May, Smeltzer and Thorpe. This should be Twins bullpen for the rest of the season. Littell should take a spot if anyone is not healthy. Poppen and Stashak should stay in the minor. Stashak allows too many hits...

[70charger]

Doesn't seem like Rogers is needed. 2 outs with a 3 run lead is a pretty safe situation.

[MNT1996]

We actually have to use Rogers in this game
