Gibby again? Weird, we seem to be overusing the guy at this point.

His mn. Twin swan song, adios Kyle

[Nine of twelve]

Lofty goals: to be a ballerina, to be president, to own a juice bar in a mall.

Or maybe not-so-lofty.

[Squirrel]

Lol, now I hear ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ through the window. Have to say, though, the live version was much louder.

[notoriousgod71]

Kohl Stewart... let's get about twelve runs here.

[Riverbrian]

 

I’ve got the Twins on TV and am listening to the Bears-Vikings game through my open window.

 

 

I feel like I'm mad at the Twins because I'm watching the Vikings. Try getting that emotion through your window. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

MLB Network just showed a large Phillies fan with a tattoo of the Phanatic on his stomach, with his navel serving as the mouth. 

 

Gritty is not sure what to think about this...

[Riverbrian]

 

Oh, dear

Oh, deer

Oh, dear

 

Come to think of it. 

 

When my dear wife walks past my computer. I lose connection.

Must not know whether to keep him around for next year? How could that still be in question?

[Don Walcott]

I was about to say that Castro would probably strike out, but I didn’t want to jinx it. . . am I doing this right?

[Squirrel]

Unless you are on the balcony of the condo next door, you aren’t making it through the window.

 

 

And that was a very weird sentence.

[big dog]

Torreyes looked to be shorter than the umpire’s shoulder in that shot.

[h2oface]

Nice to see a towering fly caught without someone running in at full speed at the last minute.

[Nine of twelve]

That isn't the Marlins guy behind home plate is it?

[h2oface]

Many stadiums have stopped this GBA. I agree. It was for the 9-11 memories. Take Me Out to the Ball Game is just fine, and plenty, for the 7th inning stretch.

If we have to keep listening to GBA, the terrorists win.

[Don Walcott]

Kohl Stewart barely broke a sweat that inning.

[tvagle]

What's worse watching the Nibbler or Cousins?

[h2oface]

Lance Lynn now coming out for the 7th with 86 pitches and 9 Ks. He does owe us, right?

[big dog]

Amen to that.

Among current players, Albert Pujols is my favorite non-Twin. A week or so, my son told me that for the first time since he was 4 for 14, his career average had dropped below .300000.

 

I'm glad that today he got a hit and didn't go 0 for 3. Had he done that, he would have fallen to .299494. With the hit, he's at .299616, so his baseball-reference page will spend the offseason still showing .300.

 

It's pretty amazing that a guy can have nearly 3000 plate appearances as a sub .250 hitter and still have a career average that high. Every time I look at his page, something impressive comes to mind.

After the Twins wrap up their World Series victory later in October, I am not sure the Vikings are going to do a good job filling the post-season void.

11 pitches, and 3 outs. Stanton, Torres, and Sanchez. 6 outs to go. 

 

Time for some insurance Bombas!!!

Kind of a fingernails hanging on to the ledge moment and lots of contract left. 

[h2oface]

And Adrianza pulls Sano. SMH. LaMarre is a journeyman fill in rental right now. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Adrianza has overused Gibson this year

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Was it him you heard earlier?

[Don Walcott]

And Adrianza pulls Sano. SMH.

Seems like he does that every time he manages.

[h2oface]

Spring training.......that Astudillo defense. 

[MNT1996]

Thanks Thorpe

[h2oface]
