sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 "On the fine art of Dumpster Diving." Looking at the Pitchers for this afternoon, one might say they are reclamation projects of a sort. One might even go on a long rant about populating the roster from players viewed as cast-offs from other organizations. I, for one, appreciate the time and effort that our organization puts into evaluating all possible options. Finding/creating value where there wasn't before is noble. Anyway, off my soap box. Soap can and should be put to better use. Gant did fine last time out, and i heard, so did Happ, so that trade was a double win situation. We been hitting better of late, and i like to think that isn't just a matter of the pitching we been facing... Let's see if we can take one from the Yankees! Us: 0. John Gant (R) P 1. Luis Arraez (L) 2B 2. Byron Buxton (R) CF 3. Jorge Polanco (S) DH 4. Josh Donaldson (R) 3B 5. Max Kepler (L) RF 6. Miguel Sano (R) 1B 7. Rob Refsnyder (R) LF 8. Ryan Jeffers (R) C 9. A. Simmons (R) SS Them: 0. Luis Gil (R) P 1. DJ LeMahieu (R) 3B 2. Brett Gardner (L) CF 3. Aaron Judge (R) RF 4. G. Stanton (R) DH 5. Joey Gallo (L) LF 6. Luke Voit (R) 1B 7. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B 8. Tyler Wade (L) SS 9. K. Higashioka (R) C
LVTwinsfan Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Currently the Yankees are out of a playoff spot. Can we salvage 1 game?
MABB1959 Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Guess who this is: "The statistics provide proof that he was one of the most consistent players from his or any other era of the game. He only missed significant time due to injury twice, and he amassed 200 or more hits eight times."

I want to see Berrios pitch and win the the playoffs. If they get to play Tampa Bay want to see him pitch to Cruz. Haven't been this excited about a Twins game all year!
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 It has been a long time since I cared this much about a Twins game that doesn't really matter to the Twins.
RpR Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 If the Twins win this game, they will probably do better in those remaining; I believe New York , has gotten to the team, especially managers that much in their heads.
RpR Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Twins have started well against the Yankees , often, and then fell flat on their pratt, but I hope this time it is different.

Me too, specifically, i hope they don't fall flat. I am fine with a well start.

Number3 Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Yankees one game out in the WC race. They are the tight team. Just play loose and win.
wsnydes Old-Timey Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Yet another pitcher injury... You can't make this stuff up.
big dog Verified Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Unbelievable with the pitcher owies. Geez.
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 Oh yay, more Charlie Barnes tomorrow.
gunnarthor Old-Timey Member Posted September 13, 2021 Posted September 13, 2021 What happened to Gant?
