Leads with 14 double plays , maybe Correa hasn't quite got his swing back ...

Another opportunity gone ...

I went to the Dior store and got a bunch of double plays on sale.

Okay, which pitcher has Maki come up to him and say, “nice job tonight, you’re optioned to St. Paul”. 

[twinssporto]

Gotta say I'm on the edge of my seat watching the next three Twins hitters come up to bat. Somehow not really expecting much from .200 hitters.

[Blyleven2011]

Luis arreaz has 38 rbi's for Miami  and hit is contagious ,,,

Leading twins in rbi's is Correa at 37  ...

[mnfireman]

Bullpen holding its own tonight, 4 no-hit innings after the Joe Ryan Express derailment...

[RpR]

The umpire has a Picasso style strike zone.

[twinssporto]

Maybe we should hire Royce as our hitting coach.

I think the braves are playing by slow pitch softball rules. Every home run hit after you hit 5 is an auto out

Marlins haven’t heard our offer yet. How about a package of Kepler, correa, pagan and Gallo for Arraez?

Pollock had talent and his work is valuable.  Other then Lewis name a TC hitter with any talent or value.

Touche! Honestly I can't name one other than maybe Kirilloff...Sad really.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

When he goes 2-5 in a game, does his average rise, or drop?

For your wise Crack, 

How about this, arraez has 113 hits for the season  with Miami  ...

Correa leads twins with 58 ...

Correa make 30 million  and arraez is lucky to make 5 million ...

Not when it comes to the never ending whining about Arraez... 

[Blyleven2011]

Southeast teams , Atlanta and Tampa  have our numbers ...

[RickOShea]

Contraction, anyone?

We’ve had just about everything tonight: math, death, sex, taxes (probably somewhere), double plays, strikeouts, etc.

best to forget it and try again tomorrow
