GameChat – Detroit Tigers @ Minnesota Twins 7:10pm

Interesting lineup for Ron Gardenhire tonight.  With Josh Willingham serving as the Twins’  DH tonight, Gardenhire had an opportunity to move Ben Revere into left field and move Trevor Plouffe into right field.  Instead Gardy leaves Revere out in RF where his weak arm is most exposed, and sends Plou

GameChat – Twins @ WhiteSox #3, 7:10 pm

The long-awaited (by he and his family anyway) Major League debut of Cole DeVries is tonight at the (Prison) Cell in Chicago. Best of luck, Cole! The rubber match of the series has Joe Mauer DHing and the team’s leading hitter, Drew Butera, behind the plate catching DeVries. The Twins face former te

GameChat – Twins @ White Sox #2, 7:10pm

You have to admit that it’s kind of a new feeling for Twins fans this season to actually look forward to what the scheduled starting pitcher might pull off! AND it’s the second night in a row that I have had that feeling! I’m looking forward to what Scott Diamond might be able to pull [...]

Weird Ideas: the Designated Starter

With the dismissal of Jason Marquis and subsequent promotion of Cole DeVries, the Twins’ rotation is down to one member of the original group projected to come out of Spring Training. Only Carl Pavano remains (and his balky shoulder makes you wonder how much longer he’ll last). And we haven’t reache

GameChat – Twins @ White Sox, 7:10pm

There isn’t much I can think of to say about today’s game other than.. I REALLY like it when the Twins beat the White Sox more than just about ANY team except the Yankees – and even that is debatable. Minnesota @ Chi White Sox Span, CF De Aza, CF Revere, RF Beckham, 2B Mauer, [...]

“Purpose” Pitches

Baseball is a great game. Almost every game has some sort of unique situation arise, allowing fans to try to get in to the minds of the players and managers. Is the starting pitcher beginning to lose his stuff or can he go another inning? Is the centerfielder cheating a bit by playing shallow to kee

Twins Head to the Windy City

I spent the past weekend visiting friends in Chicago.  The drive to and from Chicago gave me an opportunity to indulge in one of my favorite guilty pleasures: Chicago Sports Talk Radio.  Neither the Cubs or the White Sox are performing well in 2012, an the hot heads calling into their favorite local

In Case You Missed It…

because a LOT of people did.. Yesterday’s game was no picnic and there are just so many things you can do on a Sunday afternoon other than watch your favorite team get their butts handed to them on a silver platter. Don’t worry, nobody blames you for not being able to stomach that kind of [...]

GameChat – Twins @ Brewers #3, 1:10 pm

Can the Twins not only win five games in a row, but complete two consecutive series sweeps? As difficult as that may be for us to get our heads around this season, that’s exactly what the Twins are playing for today in Milwaukee. As happy as I am to see this recent string of success, [...]
