  1. I'm somewhat surprised Gibson is pitching? Is he healthy? Or rather healthy enough? It seemed that his last appearance out of the BP kind of told us he wasn't healthy. I hope they have a short leash with him, but I guess they need to see where he's at and if he will be an option in the post-season. I have my doubts, but am hoping for a good showing tonight.
  2. I am excited about Rortvedt and am looking forward to seeing how he does this Fall. Maybe by the end of the Fall League I'll actually be able to spell his name without looking it up! How well he does could affect how the Twins proceed on their catcher decisions in the off-season?
  3. What part do you disagree with? The title? its content? Specific parts of the content? That it exists at all? Asking for friends.
  4. We scored early and often last night, too. All I want is just one more run than them ... no more, no less.
  5. I just couldn’t stay up and awake so missed it all. But mostly, was looking forward to then missed the post-game recap with Ozzie Guillen.
  6. That reminds me. I need to bring my clown mask to work with me. Yes, we 50-somethings like to have fun scaring each other.
  7. What he took wasn’t a performance enhancing drug. We aren’t talking about PEDs here.
  8. Ahhhh ... got it ... yeah, in the moment celebrating can have consequences.
  9. I was watching for that when Dantes mentioned it and I didn’t and don’t see it. And I have literally watched it about 20 times. I don’t see Buxton wincing or flinching.
  10. It was a great game all around and credit to many. But that ending ... Twins fans all know ... you don’t run on Eddie!
  11. And this is what I thought was stated they were going to do ... use certain pitchers at certain points, based on matchups and in-game situations.
  12. I thought they tried also to extend Rosario but he turned it down? Did I confuse that with someone else?
  13. Since Thorpe was called up in Gibson’s spot, are they obligated to use him there?
  14. Yes. The record was at 7 for players with 20 or more home runs in a season. It was just a matter of time with Polanco sitting at 19 for so long. And if Gonzo can hit a few more, we could wind up with 9.
  15. Okay, well, duh. Yeah. I tripped over myself badly there. I just would really hate to see O'Rourke being the only one added. If they add and call up O'Rourke, I'd like to see at least one of Graterol or Alcala get that, too. But if it's O'Rourke instead of either one of them, ugh, I don't like that. But I'm not going to get my pitchfork out, either. Life goes on.
  16. This is what I want to happen ... Graterol and/or Alcala. I'm okay if they feel they need to add O'Rourke into the mix, (because honestly, I don't know better than those making these decisions, regardless of my opinion) and find a 40-man spot for him ... but not instead of at least one of Graterol or Alcala. I'm not going to get out a pitchfork, as someone above suggested, but I would be ... disappointed. (And I'll keep my mantra handy ... 'This is just a game, this is just a game, this is just a game ... )
  17. Yeah ... that's my take ... but ... my response was a response to a response ... And O'Rourke is not pitching like someone who should earn a spot. Frankly, I wouldn't call him up in September either, unless there is a roster spot for him somewhere, once Graterol uses that 40th spot.
