Game Thread: Twins @ Brewers, 5/28 - 7:10pm

[jokin]

At least I have Segura and Braun on my fantasy team.

 

I get confused, did Braun share his "cream" with Segura and his "clear" with Gomez, or was it the other way around? The 3 of them are taking out some serious 'roid rages on these meatball pitches.

[LaBombo]

I just nailed another prediction.... I'm telekinetic...

 

Is that like when I made a frying pan fly by predicting my wife would gain 20 pounds over the winter?

[ashbury]

Me too. I have ESPN.

 

I have a sixth sense too. It's just that I lack the other five.

[ThePuck]

okay...yeah, Diamond gave up 4 ER in less than 5 IP...and yeah, he gave up 8 hits overall...but how did he do in the only stat that really matters? How many walks did he have?

[Mr. Brooks]

Ugh, and another Twins starter can't complete 5 innings.

This is really starting to remind me of the days when we had the likes of Pat Maholmes, Willie Banks, LaTroy Hawkins and Eddie Guardado in our rotation.

Those were some ugly times.

Ouch... Oh man... Ouch... You won't need air conditioning in that house... It's gonna be cold...

[big dog]

I liked Morneau better when he hit home runs once in a while. Not that I don't appreciate the artistry of grounding out to second, but still.

My wife threw a pan at me once...

 

1. Those things hurt.

2. I'm tough... I just looked at her... Bent over and ate the Bacon off the floor.

[LaBombo]

Since Brauny paper towel man's triple I've watching the game on the radio with the sound turned down, but I can still smell defeat. Or maybe it's just the slice of pepperoni pizza I lost behind the couch a few weeks ago.

[Riverbrian]

It's the Pepperoni... We got this game... I'm telekinetic.

Well played. Your wife must have a better arm than mine. Sadly she missed me and hit a major appliance which had neither an extended warranty nor health insurance. Women.

[snepp]

At least yours know what a frying pan is.

Hey Ashbury... Florimon single... Take that... You... Non believer...

[ashbury]

All right. Florimon steal a base. Parms drive him in. Let's see if I've got Halitosis or whatever superpower RB claims he has.

[big dog]

Halitosis. Definitely halitosis.

[ashbury]

Halitosis. Definitely halitosis.

 

Seems to have driven away Parmelee's ability to drive in a run, as well.

[Riverbrian]

All right. Florimon steal a base. Parms drive him in. Let's see if I've got Halitosis or whatever superpower RB claims he has.

 

I want to be clear that I did not predict a stolen base or run from Florimon... I am predicting a Twins Win.

[LaBombo]

Halitosis. Definitely halitosis.

It has been known to make people rotate 90 degrees, drift backward, or even occasionally disappear. I've heard.

[ashbury]

I want to be clear that I did not predict a stolen base or run from Florimon... I am predicting a Twins Win.

 

No no, this was my prediction. And it stunk. Next time I'll have to remember to hold my breath while wishing.

[ashbury]

I can kill a man at twenty paces. Or bring a dead one back to life. It's that potent.

[LaBombo]

I want to be clear that I did not predict a stolen base or run from Florimon... I am predicting a Twins Win.

That's ok, don't squander the superpower on small outcomes.

[Mike Sixel]

If this is Ryan going all in on pitching, what would it look like if he didn't try so hard?

[big dog]

we got ryan braun out with runners on base!!!!!

[ashbury]

They can do that? This strategy needs to be added to the Twins playbook.

And Frankie Rodriguez, Scott Klingenbeck, Mike Trombley...

 

When your pitchers stink, you go through a lot of them.

[snepp]

I'll take it.
