Dude.

Chief, you need to school better on the power of the jinx

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Welp, we don't want the end of the game to be boring, do we?

[Mortimerkenny21]

Hahahaha!

[USAFChief]

I want to reach out and smack "TV dad."

[Hawkeye Bean Counter]

Going to waste Duran for 1 out looks like

 

[RickOShea]

Never easy.

 

[stringer bell]

Well, here we are. For all the really good pitches that Moran throws, the results haven't been good (SSS),

[Hawkeye Bean Counter]

Should have had Pagan pitch . . .     I'll exit stage left.

Don't look at me. I wanted Pagan.

[IndyTwinsFan]

Very poor Moran outing.  Still need Duran to close it out.  UGH!

I actually think it would be humorous to have you in that role

Im ecstatic  with the trade.  Even if Arraez hits .400 which he wont.  Arraez is a brittle single slapper.  Top shelf Starting pitching always beats that.

They don't get to use the A-B-C promo anymore...

 

(they had one of those last year, didn't they?)

It’s not a waste … it’s unfortunate, but not a waste if he gets it done

So true!

Some things never seem to change. 

[USAFChief]

Good morning, good afternoon, good night...Winnah.

[rwilfong86]

And Duran throws 3 pitches lol

Does the internet have a stage left?

 

Might as well brake the 4th wall and leave through the house.

[stringer bell]

Three pitches!

[cHawk]

I think Duran is a better pitcher than Moran.

[jkcarew]

Hero of the game…

the clubhouse guy that ran back and got Duran out of the shower.

Not when he threw 3 pitches 

 

[UpstateNewYorker]

Good morning, good afternoon, good night!

[Squirrel]

Duran is so amazing to watch

[RickOShea]

Forget the Easter ham. Winna, winnah, chicken dinnah!

[ashbury]

Duran to Buxton: "Still earned my save, bruh, no thanks to you."

[Parfigliano]

Baking lemon pepper chicken as I post.

[Squirrel]

Always a good thread that ends in a WINNAH!

But I won’t be eating chicken tonight

Whatever the joke exactly is supposed to be, that seems to be the essence of it.

[stringer bell]

One nice thing, the Twins have managed to hit long balls with runners on base. Four of their eight homers have been 3-run jacks.
