ST Game Thread: Twins v BoSox, today @ 12:05pm CT

[Squirrel]

I’m starting this today because it looks like I’ll actually get to watch as it’s on the MLB Network. Does that mean it’s also a free live stream? Anyway … this is what I’ve got.

 

[stringer bell]

Yes. Free today on mlb,tv. 

[CRF]

Yes, it seems to be free on MLB. I'm watching it on my pc right now. Sale looks very good again. 

[CRF]

I can't say I'm real thrilled with who's in the lineup today.

It’s an away game … it’s about getting players work. Still deciding, possibly, between Garlick and Castro. All the others other than Rosario in RF will be regular players. Jeffers DHing is likely getting him at bats. Shrug. I’m okay with it

Long bus ride to Jet Blue. /s/

Do they even provide a bus for that? Lol. Still, that’s not uncommon. And not uncommon for Boston to do the same when they head to Hammond. But I edited my post above. I don’t think it’s that off.

Well this feed on MLB Network is brutal. NESN blinking repeatedly with color bars popping up.

ST away games lineups have gotten weaker this year, even a week before the season starts. Two interesting notes - Kala'I Rosario (a replacement for Ross in the lineup) was at low A last year. Also, surprised Garlick is batting 8th against a LH.

Getting that on my tv, too … I still have cable and the MLB Network, so not a stream

Yeah, I’ve just come to expect it at this point. Thursday will be here soon enough.

Understood...and agreed, that getting guys some innings is what's going on. Yawn. Oh well.

It's definitely on NESN's end, as the bottom line isn't affected by the issues.

I think you might need a Snickers. Just sayin'.

Honestly...I think it's the Garlic(k), that's REALLY bugging me!

[stringer bell]

Garlick 2B. He had two hits yesterday and might be hitting his way onto the roster.

Agreed. And Castro's great spring training start has come down to earth lately, with at least the batting average right about normal at .237.

[Squirrel]

Ober and Coloumbe were reassigned today, so, that means that Sands is the long man

Lol, I usually hide those.

Btw … Garlick has been reassigned, too, so I guess Castro is in?

[mrtwinsfan]

Not a fan of these new Hats,,

WOW! That was amazing! Loved it! Much better than listen to the announcers on the Sox broadcast.

Yes, I believe so. Unless they claim someone from another organization.

 I think both moves are about options and 40-man space. Sands can be optioned and is on the 40-man. Castro can be optioned if/when either Kirilloff or Polanco is ready to go.

And searching for videos for CRF, I totally missed the home run!

Sorry about that. Forget about the vids...just concentrate on watching us win this game today!

It’s okay … my attention span is very short anyway. Well, ugh … saw that one from the other team
