    Hughes had a quality start tonight against the Rangers, giving up 2 runs in 6 innings, and the Twins won the game. If anyone has a grandmother who can pitch that well then the Twins should sign her as AAA backup.

    This would be a good time for Kepler to practice beating the shift.

    Randy Quaid's greatest movie, IMHO.

    I will be drinking kamikazes and walking/staggering home, hopefully in victory. This restaurant is about 1,500 feet from my house.

    Please keep in mind that I will arrive hungry.

    I have no absolutes, but this seems like a fair wager. I will accept your wager if you are willing to change the stakes to dinner at Bedford and Burns the next time you are in Los Angeles after the season ends.

    Moderator note - please tone down the personal swipes. Also, an observation. Some people seem almost certain that Hicks will never become a good hitter and others seem very confident that he will. That's fine, but a little more humility on both sides would go a long way towards making this debate more civil.

    I was trying to be funny and should have thought more about how it might play out. Life will be better for all of us when RB returns.

    I apologize for offending you or anyone else. I was writing about the significance of names and my favorite name is Olivia.

    Great article!

    Tonight the Twins open their first series of 2017 against the defending AL champions, the Cleveland Indians. In a perfect world Riverbrian would be writing this game thread opener, but we do not live in a perfect world. 1. There is ongoing controversy about whether the Indians' logo is racist. Last week, baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred suggested that the Indians should phase out the logo. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/mlb-commissioner-urges-cleveland-indians-to-eradicate-chief-wahoo-logo/ Above is a graphic that shows the current logo on the left and the prior logo on the right. In my opinion the current logo is marginally better than the prior logo, but still insulting to Native Americans, as is the name "Chief Wahoo". On the other hand, I take some pleasure in anything that divides Cleveland fans. 2. Lest I ignore the fact that TC bear unfairly portrays bears and terrifies young children, I would note that the Twins mascot is also less than perfect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZtjqoQ6Lf4 In order to keep the focus of this thread on the team on the field, I'm editing out the second half of this original story. Let's talk about the game and the team that is off to a (surprisingly?) good start.

    I just noticed that the Twins have allowed their opponents the lowest number of runs of any team -- 30 runs allowed. The Twins are also tied with the Dodgers for best run differential at 23. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/standings Small sample size, but the pitching and defense seem promising so far.

    It was rusted all over, but not as bad as in the picture.
  14. glunn
    Bad game, but good game thread. Have a happy Easter everyone.
  15. glunn
    If Kep gets on then we are back in this.
  16. glunn
    I hope that Buxton is paying attention to those breaking balls being thrown to Rosario.
  17. glunn
    Buxton will now get a chance at redemption for the poor plate performance and bad throw.
  18. glunn
    Sano saves the bacon. Now we need a run.
  19. glunn
    Swarzak is pitching well today.
  20. glunn
    Not this time.
  21. glunn
    At least Buxton is getting fastballs now.
  22. glunn
    In the hope that Polanco who was covering third could have then thrown to first to make a DP.
  23. glunn
    He just suggested that the pitcher should have let it drop then thrown to third.
  24. glunn
    Now the double play can end this.
  25. glunn
    Time for the pitcher's best friend.
