sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted July 31, 2020 Posted July 31, 2020 1. My precioussss game thread intro. It came to me on my birthday. Normally, what with the trade deadline, and i leave it to other more informed game threaders to introduce the complicated situation. But this year is weird, so it is just the unemployment deadline? Or something. 2. A favorite line from 'A Little Night Music':"Happy Birthday to Me." I don't know why, bjt it is, and it isn't even very important... But i am suppose to be introducing a baseball game, so i will change the topic to "Smiles of a Summer Night" the movie that got Ingmar Bergman internation recognition just before he made "The 7th Seal", which i keep meaning to watch in memory of Max Von Sydow, and the current pandemic... 3. But back to "Smiles of a Summer Night", which i would liken to the older pitching heavy competitive teams like our Adversary:the Tribe. Games were short, quick and to the point, like last night's game. 4. And "A Little Night Music" is full of glorious clever music, and will take longer to unfold, being how the Bomba Squad delivers. So go ahead and enjoy this weekend in the country! 5. If it weren't for the last minute, would i get anything done? And for my B-day perhaps i shall splurge on some mlb season ticket. I think i will survive having Yankees and Redsox games blacked out... Tribe: 0. Mike Clevinger ® P1. C. Hernandez (S) 2B2. Jose Ramirez (S) 3B3. F. Lindor (S) SS4. Carlos Santana (S) 1B5. Franmil Reyes ® DH6. Jordan Luplow ® LF7. D. Santana ® RF8. Beau Taylor (L) C9. Oscar Mercado ® CF Twins: 0. Randy Dobnak (R ) P1. Max Kepler ( L) RF2. Josh Donaldson (R ) 3B3. Jorge Polanco ( S ) SS4. Nelson Cruz (R ) DH5. Eddie Rosario ( L) LF6. Jake Cave ( L) CF7. M. Gonzalez ( S ) 1B8. Luis Arraez ( L) 2B9.

sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted July 31, 2020 Author Posted July 31, 2020 Thanks all! The other day i got asked for my 5 year plan... I'm still thinking about it...
70charger Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Thanks all!The other day i got asked for my 5 year plan...I'm still thinking about it... Tell 'em you'll get back to 'em in five years.
70charger Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 That is one hell of a suit coat, Dick.
70charger Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 No Buxton, no Sano, no Garv Sauce. I still haven't gotten a satisfying answer as to why Kepler is in right while Cave is in center. Isn't Kepler the better fielder?
Squirrel Community Moderator Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Happy Birthday, sample! Let’s go Twins!
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Author Posted August 1, 2020 Tell 'em you'll get back to 'em in five years.If they want the real answer, this indeed it. If they are impatient, i can tell them i plan to learn this little ditty...

bighat Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Nice DP there! Gonzo flashing leather!
Mill1634 Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Props to Lindor for the mask but not sure it is doing much without the nose covered
PDX Twin Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Props to Lindor for the mask but not sure it is doing much without the nose covered Maybe he's breathing through his mouth.
Mill1634 Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Dobnak with the same issue we've seen from many Twins thus far...not putting guys away. Smeltzer better be ready to throw tonight
stringer bell Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Dobnak does what Dobnak does--throws strikes and depends on his fielders. 22 pitches though.
stringer bell Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Hey, maybe we can get rid of Clevinger early....nah, doubt it.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Author Posted August 1, 2020 Can't complain so far...
Nine of twelve Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 I hope the Twins do well because this is the last series we'll have vs. Cleveland in 2020.
70charger Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Alright Rosie. Get something to hit.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Author Posted August 1, 2020 Rosario's turn. I do like how our team shares the wealth of first inning plate appearances.
Mill1634 Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 There we go!!!! Total 180 thus far!
bighat Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 Rosario is having a GREAT start to the season.
Nine of twelve Verified Member Posted August 1, 2020 Posted August 1, 2020 C'mon boys, let's keep the line moving. Big time ambush.
