Game Thread "David" Twins vs. Tigers 6:10pm edt 8/24/2019 ad

I really don’t know what the Tigers were thinking giving a 33 year an 8 year contract extension. Detroit still owes Miguel Cabrera over $ 130 mil over the next 4 years, including an $ 8 mil buyout for him to not play in 2023. Talk about a crippling contract.

Could be worse, could be Pujols' contract.

Buxton may be back next week.. How many games does he play before he crashes full speed into a wall again and goes back on the IL

Buxton will get hurt again, it’s a legitimate concern

[ashbury]

Not in tonight's game, he won't.

[LVTwinsfan]

Not in tonight's game, he won't.

Smalley commented he may be coming back soon , in tonight’s game, I’m on topic

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I admit I do not like these player’s weekend unis either.

 

I guess that means I prefer the Owners’ Weekend uniforms? *shudders*

But did it really make the world a better place? Is the game thread more fun? I kind of miss gamethreads when the team is bad, but I do like the team to win, so it's a conundrum....

I will not wear them on the field, on a boat, with a goat,

 

These uniforms, I will not wear...

The Angels have a lot more revenue. They can afford it.

 

Besides, it’s only two more years, not four.

Ok, you win this one on a technicality

You are on topic... There isn't much off topic in a game thread. 

 

I just want to point out that if you spend your time talking about Buxton getting hurt before he gets hurt...

 

You'll have nothing left to say once he gets hurt. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

That last fly ball went decidedly further than the pitcher’s mound...

[mrtwinsfan]

Gibby C,mon  #8 hitter h.r.  #9   h.b.p.,  Arriaz error--   here we go again

[Nine of twelve]

Rookie mistake. You gotta have the ball before you can think about the DP.

The Twins have struggled lately at home, they win when Buck is in the lineup

I often thought rims that constrict would be a great home field advantage in basketball. 

 

How about hydraulic outfield walls that slide backwards when the road team hits? 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Uh oh

[ashbury]

Roy tries to explain away the error by Arraez, finally gives up.

 

[Nine of twelve]

This is not all on Gibson. Should be runner on first with 2 out.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Wow, that Detroit runner has had every opportunity to not go station-to-station.

[Krabby5]

Gibson struggling with the daunting Tigers lineup

[bighat]

Can't watch.

[MNT1996]

Can we just play the rest of the season as the away team?

[tvagle]

I'd give props to Gibson if he put "The Nibbler" on the back of his uniform

[mrtwinsfan]

Roys mouth seems to be ahead of his thought process , alot of partial stuttering because of it,   I blame all this on these uniforms,

[Nine of twelve]

Great job by Gibson vs Miggy.

[Aggies7]

Is it ok to worry yet

[Nine of twelve]

*** **** unearned run.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Gibson struggling with the daunting Tigers lineup

not really, in my opinion

[MMMordabito]

This team is a joke. One hit off of Jackson first time through the order. Supposedly sensational Arraez can't field a ground ball right at him. Gibson thinks it's best to bust a guy with a .125 average in and can't command it and gives him a free base.

[mrtwinsfan]

Try watching baseball highlights on espn  with the sound down  and i have no idea whos who,  these uniforms r insane
