Game Thread: Twins@White Sox 5/6 7:10PM

Mastro and Centeno are up and Fien and Milone are gone?  We're lookin' at 142-20, baby!

81 degrees in the Twin Cities and a last place ball club means no game watching on a Friday night.

In case you didn't catch it on the other threads, no, Milone and Fien are not gone. They are just on waivers, but still part of the 25 man roster.

 

And even if/when they clear waivers, they will still be part of the 25 man roster until we outright them to AAA. We just won't have to pass them through waivers again to outright them, at least through August 31. (Fien could reject the outright assignment too, although I think with less than 5 years service time, he would forfeit his salary by doing so.)

 

So I expect them to remain with the club for the immediate future, at least.

Thanks... I wrote the open before Graham and O' Rourke were cast aside so it was an assumption this morning. 

 

I've striken it from the record.

Lots of tension in the other threads.. I suggest we take a deep breath, let the dominoes fall where they may, and be like this bear today.

Bah!  Quit harshin' my mellow.

91 degrees here right now, perfect for watching a ballgame on TV.

Scary that the hottest place in the U.S. right now is Two Harbors ... Halsey? How ya doin'? Hope you didn't melt out on the golf course today!

I say we give it the ol' switcheroo tonight and play the bullpen on the field and put our fielders into the pen. Rosario has a more accurate arm from the outfield than our pitchers do from the mound, so I'm thinking this just might work.

It appears that bear has been smokin' indo, sippin' on gin and juice.

Hate to kill your vibe, but that bear just got released.

86 at my place in Silver Bay, was 94 in Finland a while ago.  Nice!

I can't seem to make up my mind about this waivering process...

I guess Molitor was just waiting for Brian Dozier to start to hit before putting him on the bench.

Sorry Van. I don't feel like getting "Served" today.

Brilliant! If the worst case scenario happens tonight, at least there's a blank slate for a photo shop contest!

 

Sad Bear.

Ay'n Joos' Keeding!

I'm pretty much scared to even look.

On this particular day, it's best to not look. Imagine the Zach Jones thread on steroids.

And the bear needs some food, look at his sunken tummy. 

Can someone superimpose a White Russian in the bear's hand for me please?

Unfortunately I'll be missing this game tonight. Going to a crawfish boil along with getting my fill of vodka and beer! Then the after party shenanigans... As Gardy once said, "We'll be back tomorrow night, I can promise you that."

Steam those buns, Van baby!

I have a feeling they will win tonight. Latos has been garbage the last couple years, and there's no way he's reverted back to a dominant pitcher. 

Well, if we are doing predictions... I think Park is going to hit 6HRs with 6RBIs tonight.
