sooo... yeah Im not watching but I'm listening and I just have to say ....Dan Gladden just said that Naquin stood there and watched his ball that hit the wall and ended up a double. Twin fans, this is why We are better, The little things matter in this game and when you add em up we are just better than the Cleveland Indians. It's not just one guy, it is their whole team straight up. Danny just said he would have been on third. Naquin won't even score.

 

I heard the same.

 

But to be fair, Marwin got thrown out at second last night doing the same thing.

If Rosario goes on IL, hopefully it's Rooker to 60-day IL and then Kirilloff added to 40 man and called up

The Twins do plenty of watching on fly balls and a lot of times they don't really bust it to first base on "routine" grounders. If you're going to make a judgment on that, I don't think there is one who is more guilty than another.

Buckle up boys and girls, smoke and mirrors for the save.

[LVTwinsfan]

Tired of all the Romo talk, just do the game Dick

[Aggies7]

And this is why you don’t waste your closer like we did last night

[Aggies7]

Twins will end up with more injuries Today than the Vikings

[Doctor Gast]

I don`t understand why they used Rogers last nite in a non save & today in a save situation they bring out Romo. IMO that`s playing w/ fire

[LVTwinsfan]

And this is why you don’t waste your closer like we did last night

because Romo gave up a single? Rogers isn’t a shoe in for a save either

[Danchat]

I find it funny that the Cubs got a no-hitter on the Brewers... poor Milwaukee has almost given up 2 no hitters (Maeda nearly had it against them). Their lineup really has been punchless this year.

Not sure I would have liked Rogers in there with just a two run lead, though.

[USAFChief]

Wither Duffey?

Because Rogers is better

[stringer bell]

How about a 4-5-3 doubleplay?

i guess i should have clarified...ok....the point is they think they are so great that theybfont plsy the game right ok? You can look at one instance and say "oh well the Twins do that too!" What the Hell? what i meant was little things add up, and they effect the entire culture of a team. If a young dude does that and nobody checks him then shame on them. And shame on us. If you just wanna troll everything i post then send me a private message. Obe team is about to go 7-3 against the other this year. Not all the answers can be found in the computer printouts.

Just to be clear...youre not actually watching the game, correct?

[LVTwinsfan]

Because Rogers is better

Romo’s okay, the whole designated closer role handcuffs your team at times

[stringer bell]

Rogers was warming before Eddie homered. As long as he was warmed, he was coming in.

[Aggies7]

Romo, less chatter, more outs

[IndianaTwin]

And likely for the second time this year, the Twins will get a guy coming off a no-hitter, since he’ll probably get one of next weekend’s games. 

[Nine of twelve]

It just dawned on me--last night Santana wore his pants above the knees and today he's got them at the base of his heels. I don't get it.

[Nine of twelve]

OK, Romo let's get this batter for the save. I want to see how you behave in that situation.

[USAFChief]

Winnah.

 

Whew.

[operation mindcrime]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stringer bell]

Winner!!!

[IndianaTwin]

I’m not going to just sweep out the garage, I’m going to do the entire driveway after this one!

[LVTwinsfan]

Good job Romo

[Channing1964]

WINNA WINNA YEAH CLEVELAND GTFO OF TOWN

[Danchat]

Yeah, get swept Cleveland!!! We actually went 7-3 against them on the year. Great stuff, now it's time to take the division from the White Sox. Let's go!!

[IndianaTwin]

That’s 3.5 games up on the Cleveland Baseball Team with 12 and 13 to go. I’d like to think that sticks the fork in them.
