Game 39 - Twins @ Brewers - 5/19/12

[pjnelly]

You can't get a much better double switch than that. Nice move by Gardy!

[Ultima Ratio]

4 going on a 21 game win streak

[Vegeta]

And the Golden Sombrero goes to Rickie Weeks

Ever since Plouffe shaved his head he has been crushing the ball!

Sort of. He's still got an OPS in the .500s and is King more. I love that he's getting a chance to play everyday so the Twins can make a decent evaluation of him, but he's not really gotten better so far.

Matt Capps haters?...... Anyone?........ Hello?

[mikeee]

Is that another win for gray!?!? lol

[striker_86]

capps is lights out! Trade bait!

3 homers for plouffe in 4 games? That is my count.

YES but he usually follows it with an 0-4. If we can get some consistency from him he'd be a valuable hitter cuz kid got power!

[Dilligaf69]

Just because more people post it on the Internet doesn't make your argument about the pitcher's trust in Mauer real. Find real evidence please. Pavano and Butera do seem to work together, and that's fine, and Joe has probably been due for a day off.

He wasa getting a day off this weekend anyway..why not a day game after night??? Plus Butera and Pavario work well together, not that big a deal. I doubt a day off will throw off any timing Joe found yesterday to any substantial degree. Oh and Drew with another 2 hits today.

[Montecore]

Perkins, Gray, and Capps. Nice SF AB by Dozier, Plouffe, and 2 more hits by Son Of Sal. Quality start by Pavano. Keep at it.

Be careful typing "Count" with auto correct.

I was once texted the question "can you give me a count on how many taco shells are left".

I texted back... Just one... That is your count. The Auto correct blew it and gave it a whole new meaning. My mother in law wasnt sure how to respond back. She just bought some more.

Yeah I agree with you. Was arguing exactly that to jokin, sorry if I wasn't clear.

Mauer will probably pinch it for Pavano...

This is how John Travolta got himself into trouble, isn't it?

[one_eyed_jack]

OK, Butera's offensive outburst was strange enough.

But now I see that Nishioka hit a 2-run homer for Rochester.

Welcome to baseball bizarro world.

Hope it sticks around tomorrow and we can watch the Twins beat up on Greinke while Marquis shuts out the Brewers!

[twinsnorth49]

2 more extra base hits for the king of singles..................I kid, I kid, I don't expect it but it's been fun to watch.

Didn't see the typo and I would think yes! LOL
