  1. Suboptimal start for Smeltzer.
  2. I like the start of this game so far.
  3. I guess that works. I'll take the charity.
  4. Agreed. If Celestino and Gordon can have good days at the plate, I like the Twins chances. They've got to avoid the K though. That does have me a bit concerned.
  5. Welcome to the Game Thread, Sunday morn edition, where we'll discuss all things not being math and politics. This series has been a mixed bag thus far. Friday night showcased the Twins team that we know and love. Saturday's tilt featured the Twins team that we know and love but aren't quite sure of why. It's likely that we'll see one of those two teams in today's matinee rubber match. On the hill today, Devin Smeltzer looks to continue to show that he belongs in the rotation. Gilberto Celestino returns to the starting lineup to help him out. It'll be interesting to see how Smeltzer's stuff fares against a good lineup like Toronto's. After a short outing by Bundy yesterday, the bullpen could use a deeper start today. Opposite Smeltzer will be Kevin Gausman, who has recorded 70 K's in his 61 IP this season. This will be interesting to watch since Toronto pitchers were able to strike out 15 Twins yesterday, lead by Jose Berrios' 13. He also went 7 full, so their pen is better rested. Helping him will be a few spawn of former big leaguers. Here's to hoping we see more of Friday's Twins and less of yesterday's Twins... Today's contestants, listed in order of batting, are: For the visiting Twins: DH - Arraez C - Sanchez 2B - Polanco 3B - Urshela RF - Larnach 1B - Miranda CF - Celestino LF - Gordon SS - Palacios For the hosting Jays: CF - Springer SS - Bichette 1B - Guerrero Jr RF - Hernandez DH - Kirk 3B - Chapman 2B - Espinal LF - Gurriel Jr C - Jansen
  6. Triple up Toronto's run output...as expected.

    Just baseball being baseball.

      Yes, that part!

      I specifically didn't order dessert with my pizza because I didn't want to be tempted!

      Haha!  I just earned the Paparazzi badge on that.  Seems fitting somehow that it was for a dessert post!

  7. I vote @Puckett34 does the remainder of the season. The repercussions are too great to not take this route.
  8. Triple Toronto's run output...as expected.
  9. If there's a more trustworthy bloke than Red Green, I'd love to meet them!
  10. You'll need reading glasses before that link will be useful, I'm afraid. Also, I'm just going with what our esteemed thread opener has stated. Who am I to question them?
  11. And also, what is the exchange rate on runs? Where has this been?
  12. "Canada has less gravity than anywhere else on Earth" Note to self...if I want to lose weight, move to Canada.
  13. No doubt. They're pretty hard to watch. Offense isn't everything.
  14. Perhaps not all that surprising, but Girardi has been dismissed. It'll be interesting to see how the team does from here.
  15. I get that Gordon is basically a bit player, but those guys are important too. He had a hell of game. I think he's pretty underappreciated for what he does.
  16. Not sure what to say about this one that hasn't been said about the last two.
  17. Cool... Guess that I know what I'm not having for dinner.
  18. That'd be a really strange mashup. But I'd be interested in hearing it.
  19. Gordon continues to have himself a day!
  20. I hope that we get Houdini Pagan or better today.
  21. who else could go for some insurance runs right about now?
