    Shortstop right now is reminding me of the baddest of bad old days, with Lenny Faedo and Houston Jiminez playing for the Twins. I was willing to trade a weak bat for Flori's D, but I'm not willing to trade a whiffle bat for it. Bring on Esco/Nunez/whomever. See if Flori can figure things out in Rochester. Regarding the loss of marginal players mentioned a page or two back, Presley currently has a .444 OPS in Houston, 36 ABs with 9 Ks. Yikes. I feel badly for him. Maybe he should try shortstop. -edit- On the bright side, he hasn't been caught stealing yet...

    Another rocket for an out. The Twins have hit a lot better than one earned run's worth today. Looks like it will be Tonkin in the 9th.

    Very nice job by Nolasco. Great start. 106 pitches through 8. I'd let him finish if he wants to, but I'm happy to give Tonkin the 9th and welcome him back to the bigs in the ultimate low-pressure situation.

    Really nice play there by Plouffe. I am very happy with the infield defense today- it's very sharp.

    I am in the Chicago market and I watch the Twins/Sox with the sound off. Then if the Sox have an error or give up a homer, I rewind the DVR and listen to the sound on so I can hear Hawk moan. When Thome won that game a couple of years ago for us, I must have listened to Hawk say "Dadgummit" 5 times. Really, really nice fielding plays from Florimon and Dozier in this inning!
  7. big dog
    I believe you meant "Jakey"?
  8. big dog
    What was that, about 8 pitches? Who is this Nolasco character?
  9. big dog
    Flori actually hit that ball pretty well, but right at the right fielder. That's an RBI if he had done it the previous inning. I would sure like to see him start hitting .250 with a few doubles. Let's get Ricky through the fourth the way he got through the first three.

    Happiest guy in the dugout, after Joe? Gotta be Nolasco. In fact he might even be happier than Joe.

    Oh HECK Yea!!!

    Terrible bunt, Shields had Kubel at third, and Shields completely flubbed it. Let's go Hicks. Great at-bat by Hicks. He had fastball swings at two changeups, then laid off changeups on 2-2 and 3-2 to get a walk.
  13. big dog
    Let's go Skuzi!
  14. big dog
    I want Cordarelle on my team if we need to break up a double play, that's for sure. Looking foward to a good start by Nolasco and some hits off Shields today. Go Twins!
  15. big dog
    Barlett's on the DL. It isn't him.
  16. big dog
    So now Dozier has 3x as many homers as KC, and is just one behind Texas!
  17. big dog
    Yeah, I agree- he's a potential asset.
  18. big dog
    Thank you for another bright ray of sunshine. This is the game thread.
  19. big dog
    Kazmir over 60 pitches with one out in the third.
  20. big dog
    Koooooooooobssssssss!!!!!
  21. big dog
    Maybe next time Correia starts he won't have to stand around for 5+ minutes waiting for an idiotic replay challenge.
  22. big dog
    Kubes and Cobes in the corners. Wind blowing out. Maybe we should give up a middle infielder and go with four outfielders?
  23. big dog
    That's a good point- a lot of top prospects weren't promoted quickly because they didn't deserve it, not because the Twins were being conservative.
  24. big dog
    I'm using the Twins feed- looks like the fastball is in the low 90s, though I'm listening more than watching.
  25. big dog
    Nice to see Flori get a hit. Sukuki out by two time zones there. Is Al Newman coaching third again?
