Cruz is unreal. I'm trying to rupture my tendon in the kitchen right now. Googling on how to do it.

Your new name makes me laugh. Love it! If Buxton comes back I'm changing my name to Buxton's broken shoulder.

All Rize?

I'm glad we have a 2nd baseman ready for next year. Arreaz is awesome.

This is such a nasty lineup. Impressive. When does Buxton return?

For the playoffs we need to get Aggie on a steady flow of diet Coors.

Maybe the squirrel was really a gopher....??? They do look alike.

I wish we could get Yuenglings here in Minnesota. Good stuff.

I also like two out rallies.

I really like our team!

When you snatch the baseball from my hand young grass hopper you will be a true Major Leaguer.

Good morning Twins fans and welcome back to another nerve-racking, nail biting game thread! Just to be clear, I looked up the word "nerve-racking" and the way I spelled it is the traditional way although nerve-wracking is acceptable now too. Note to Mods: It would be nice if TD could offer some editorial assistance with our intro's. I know TD only pays me $1,200 for each game thread intro but a little help would be nice for the paltry sum we get compensated for the effort...Just sayin'. Speaking of money, I have to fly to Las Vegas in a few hours for a work event. I do plan on laying some cash down for the Twins to win the whole thing this year. I just looked up the odds and the Twins are about 14/1 odds of winning the World Series. I think that translates to almost a 6% chance of winning the whole thing. I'll actually take those odds. After the last decade in purgatory I'm an excited fan. Another win today and we're back to a 2 game lead! I'd like to write more but need to head to the airport shortly and stop at an ATM machine. When I walk off that plane and pull up my MLB app I fully expect to see another win for our Twins. I'll then be making a bee line directly to the sport book at the hotel/casino. Get ready Twins fans! I'm betting this is our year! Go Twins!! Twinssporto Chairman and CEO of the 2019 Minnesota Twins World Champions Fan Club Lineups: TWINS: 1. Max Kepler CF 2. Jorge Polanco SS 3. Miguel Sano 3B 4.

We're gonna have at least 8 games of nerves in the playoffs (if we sweep everyone) and yes we will make the playoffs. We also could have 14 games of nerves and adrenaline. Everyone relax. This is training for your nerves and optimism.

A homer and walk for the first two batters. Not really a confidence builder for May.

Walk the rookie. For such a crappy Minnesota Twins team at least somebody got respect!

Why? their pitchers are flawless.

Is everyone loosing their minds? The season is not over. This is one game and Cleve boy is pitching the game of his life. We have a 2 game lead now. IF we loose tonight it's a 1 game lead. If we win the next 2 were up by 3. If we get swept so be it. The boys need to grow through some adversity.

I'm considering it but I want to see if they let Cleve boy throw 140 pitches tonight.

Sorry, just got here. Haven't read the whole thread yet. Who thinks it's the end of the world yet? Only down 4 boys and girls. I think we have something left in the tank. If I didn't I'd go to bed early.

I wish Kepler was playing today.

Only down 8!

Quoting myself now...The lead is shrinking...Hmmmm.

I think we can come back from this. Only down 10. Get ready!!!

Definately odd man out. I really like Schoop but Arraez is the real deal. I think this kid has a great future. Love watching him take at bats!
