Going downHill fast.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Well, we got us an uphill battle to come back from this.

 

Screw your courage to the sticking place!

[ScrapTheNickname]

Most high school left fielders would have thrown that to the plate without a bounce.

[LVTwinsfan]

Hill really laboring after getting 2 quick outs

he had the third out but the umpire missed it

[Vanimal46]

The roller coaster that is Eddie Rosario. Guns out Merrifield at 2B one day. A few days later he air mails a throw home to advance runners another base.

[Mill1634]

Not a good start at all from Hill. Looked really good the first time through the order, but couldn't get the third out. Not the start you wanted out of him. Hopefully rust is part of the reason

He's a head case but everybody loves Eddie. I personally can't wait to see what the next crop is from the minors.

[Mill1634]

Guessing we see Thorpe throw about 50 pitches tonight and get sent down for Poppen tomorrow

[LVTwinsfan]

Should be 2-1, needed to get four outs that inning

[MVP Nick Punto]

 

I am talking about the people who'd ninja'd me by saying "ninja'd" before i did.

Ahh, the 'ol Double Ninja Suprema~

[MMMordabito]

The IL called. Hill's bed's ready.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Exactly!

 

If i can't find a new thing to say, i'm at least gonna try to say something new about not being able to say something new.

 

No gnews is good gnews with gary gnu.

*Sylvester Stallone voice* I gnu you'd say that.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I like double plays.

[LVTwinsfan]

Nice pick

[Mill1634]

Sano with a very nice scoop at first..good to see

[sampleSizeOfOne]

"Sometimes, well, Thielbar, he eats you."

 

Good old 2-2-3 inning.

[Vanimal46]

I can’t imagine trying to evaluate relievers. When I saw Thielbar make the opening day roster I thought Oh great, we have a mop up guy. After his last couple of outings it’s possible he gets promoted to mid/high leverage outings sooner than later.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Cruz beats the relay to first.

 

Garver's hit remains significant.

 

C'mon, let's chip at that 3 run deficit.

[Mill1634]

Safe.

[Mill1634]

Sano hit that ball hard. .630 xBA

[LVTwinsfan]

Umps are getting worse every year

[LVTwinsfan]

Sano has deceptive speed

[MVP Nick Punto]

I believe that is what is called a safety, right?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Staying alive!

[MVP Nick Punto]

Staying alive!

I prefer Jive Talkin'

[bighat]

Brett Anderson is letting us all hear how displeased he is....woof!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I hope Thorpe keeps us going.

On the MLB website when they had the comments section, I remember a Brewers fan with the screen name BraunisaLyingCheat

[Mill1634]

.....Thorpe is still not good
