Work Less Play More

Its fun to watch when they have Radke and Santana on the mound. Its nerve racking to watch Silva pitch. And its downright sickening to watch Lohse on the mound. I liked the Yankees suck chant, and Jeter almost losing his head. Lets play like this in october. (oh wait, its 30 something degrees outside, it may be october)

I'm with you Sledneck! We were aggresive in both of the first two games... some nice homeruns, good defense and great pitching! Did I mention Shannon Stewart is the key in our batting order, what a stud! 1 question.... Can Jacque ever not swing at a pitch?? I'm bracing for tonights game with Silva tossing BP I expect AROD to put a hurtin' on us. I can only hope for a high scoring win say 8-7.

[The Grebe]

At the worst it would still be 2 to 1 in the Twins favor...at the best, a sweep! These are the New York Yanks! No small feat beating these guys, ever! Go Twins!

[Willy]

Sure fun watching the boys play when they play like this. Hitting the sh.t out of the ball!

Way to go fellas!!!

By the way...
Santanna is just unreal.

[Eric Wettschreck]

Santana is just plain nasty. In baseball, nasty is a HUGE compliment.

Love to see the boys playing like they are, just wish I could get home from work earlier to see the whole game.

Go Twins!!!!

[Stratosman]

Silva scares me sometimes.

[The Grebe]

If you play for the Yankees, thats a good thing!

[friendlyfisher]

you guys were right, if the twins are going to win it will have to be 10-9

[vikingtom]

nice come back now 4 Joe to save it

[friendlyfisher]

I hate the yankees

[wade22]

Keep out the bats. Bust out the brooms.

Hi Ho Silva, AWAY!

That's all I got.

[buzzsaw]

Friendly fisher, I had a feeling it would be a high scoring game (earlier post) However I only predicted 15 runs being scored, not 23!! I was wrong it wasn't AROD that killed us (although he had three hits) it was Sheffield! Now the bottom of our pitching order in the first two games against Cleveland again.

[The Grebe]

Hate the Yankees?? I thought only Met fans hated the Yankees?

They are the measure of baseball, who does everyone want to beat..the Yankees!

Who has the the big purse strings..the Yankees!

Big Apple/Yankees..Pinstripes/Yankees..Most world series/Yankees..most recognized American baseball team, world wide Yankees!

When you unravel Yankee socks, two games in a row and dang near eat their collective lunches in a third, you have done something! Go Twins!!!

[Willy]

Even though the boys did lose last night they still played a good game. Any half-a.sed pitching and they would have come away with a sweep. Also Nathan never pitches that bad and I think it was a fluke.
They are swinging the bats well. Let's just hope they keep it up and that our bottom of the barrel 4th and 5th starters keep us close.
Stewart is on fire!!!

[bigbucks]

I feel pretty confident in saying the Yankee pitchers will be glad to not see Shannon Stewart for a while now while he's this hot. It was next to impossible to get him out the last 3 games. 10-14 is ridiculous!

I had a bad feeling about Nathan last night. You knew sooner or later he was going to have to be human and actually give up a run. He's been so awesome you started to think it was impossible to score against him. Nothing hurt, I'd rather have him blow a game now than be like Gary Anderson during the Vikings big year & have your first miscue of the year wind up contributing to an exit from the postseason.

[Stratosman]

Yeah I had a abad feeling too seeing who he had to face in the inning, Sheffield and Rodriguez, the wat Sheff has been swinging the bat against the Twins I just had a feeling, and Nathan was definately due to give up a run or four. It was still great to watch that comeback.

We need Mauer back bad, Blanco can't hit the ball and who is this Bowen? I think between the two they barely bat .150.

[bucketmouth64]

Twins need a third pitcher. Is it too late to trade for one? Or does it need to go thru the waivor wire...where you know others will put a claim to prevent us from obtaining a pitcher. Drop Silva and Lohse to 4 and 5 and get Mulhulland back in the bullpen where his experience will help.

[The Grebe]

I don't know??? Blanco may not be a Johnny Bench, but he seems to me to be a pretty good all around catcher?

He calls an excellent game, he can throw out the stealers once in awhile, he can ding one out once in awhile, he protects the plate really well, he has experience and savvy to impart onto the younger players, he has a good knowledge of base running and he probably does'nt cost alot?
I vote "Yea"!

Now Bowden, I've only seen him once, so I have no opinion of him.

[eyecrosser2000]

I can't believe people are thinking the Joe Nathan ride is over. Don't you remember the Everyday Drama with Guardado. Shefield drives a ball low and away that no one else except Vlad Guerraro could jack. Sure he had a let down after that, but remember: the other team wants to win, too. From what I've seen so far this year--I'll take Joe Na over any closer we've ever had--including Aggie. I know that is a quick judgment, but I think he's earned a little respect.
