    C;mon Erv. You got this.
  2. gocgo
    Whoooooooooo!
  3. gocgo
    This is what I've dreamed of. More please.
  4. gocgo
    We came to play.

    Well, boys and girls, I need a distraction from life after the last 24 hours. I won't get into details, but it suffices to say that this game (win or lose) could not come at a better time for me. I know that deep in the bowels of MLB, they would love to see the Yankees advance. I would remind those bowels that they still owe us for Mauer's fair ball. Go Twins!

    I! I believe! I believe that! I believe that we! I believe that we will! I believe that we will win! I believe that we will win! I believe that we will win!

    It's not a miracle, but we will defy the odds and win.

    I don't have a strategy...just win baby! Both squads have young players that haven't had any postseason experience, but here's the difference - the Twins are playing with house money. There is no pressure on us. Byron Buxton can relax and do what Byron Buxton does. Rosario? I think he'll eat this up. Kepler, Polanco, Sano?, Adrianza, etc...this is their chance to drink it in and enjoy it. In Erv we trust. Aaron Judge...New York is looking to him to bring them to the promised land. Will he get caught up in it and try to hit a 5 run homer with every swing? Severino, Gregorius, Hicks, etc...if you think that they won't be nervous, think again. We don't need to Twins to come out of the gate fast (although it would be nice). We just need the Yankees to not come out of the gate fast. The longer this game stays 0-0, the better for the Twins and the more the pressure mounts on the Yankees. I'll take a 5th inning 3 spot and another tacked on in the 6th for the Twins...and then the pressure really starts to mount on the Yankees. Not a strategy, but it's how I want it to play out.

    82-74

    Prophetic?...Nah, just a lucky guess.

    I've just got a feeling....it might be the guacamole that I ate with lunch though.
  11. gocgo
    I have just the opposite feeling. I can't wait to play them. I think we have a chip on our shoulder and something to prove even as all the experts have us getting beat before we've gotten on the plane. I see an ambush coming.
  12. gocgo
    I guess the bigger question is if you consider the wild card play in game "making the postseason"? Some say that the winner of that game makes the playoffs. My approach is that we have unfinished business. If we can exercise that demon, then pop the bubbly.
  13. gocgo
    Because we ain't done. I hear all the "experts" saying that the Twins won't beat the Yankees in NY...and they might be right...or not. I think it is ridiculous for them to write off the Twins after they just lost 2-1 in a game in NY where Erv pitched. That's a couple of bloops and a bleeder from being 3-2 the other way. Do I think the Yanks are better? Yep. Do I think it's baseball and weird stuff happens? Yep!
  14. gocgo
    But what about the days when you get to work at 8 AM and realize that the entire day isn't going to be productive?....Mondays for example.
  15. gocgo
    And the Twins are now 4.5 ahead of Texas (lost 1-0 to A's), Angels, and the Royals. Seven to go. We will be playing the Yankees, and we will be able to set up our rotation to pitch Erv. I just want to knock off the Yankees one time in there house. Damn Yankees...why I'd sell my soul to the...oh wait, somebody already wrote that script.
  16. gocgo
    I've always thought Kaepernick was athletic, but not particularly accurate or a very cerebral QB.
  17. gocgo
    I would argue that we already know that. Throws hard with no movement and gets hit just as hard. Unless you can throw 100+, you aren't blowing it by a MLB hitter. Unless he realizes that and learns how to pitch instead of how to throw, he's not going to succeed in the majors.
  18. gocgo
    They seem to hand it right back to us though.
  19. gocgo
    And we finally get a 1-2-3 inning!
  20. gocgo
    Good call...saw that coming. This is the perfect game to prove he should call it a career.
  21. gocgo
    I'm laughing now at that post, so that's a positive.
  22. gocgo
    Wow! Not a single 1-2-3 inning in the series so far. That in itself says it all.
  23. gocgo
    Yes...tourists. We are the Minnesota Tourists.
  24. gocgo
    It's only the 5th inning and we are 8 down with bases loaded. Someone please throw me a positive. Has anyone else noticed that the umps seem to have a pretty small plate in Yankee Stadium? This would be the game to to get thrown out if I were catching.
  25. gocgo
    Even sweeter...Kate Upton....steal her from JV.
