Ok, honestly that time I thought Arod was going deep.


Impossible. Neither team was ahead by 10 runs

*exhales*

Normally I'd say 'RUNS!' or something similar here, but it's the Twins so, go... make productive outs, or whatever the hell they do there.

ARod delivers in another clutch situation!


Last year was obviously a fluke

FWIW, the twins are 94% likely to win this game according to fangraphs.

Serious question, was Damon ever a righty throwing fielder? He looks like he broke his real throwing arm and has to use his off arm

I just noticed that the Weather Channel-sponsored portion of MLB Gameday is reporting that there's a heavy thunderstorm at the Metrodome. Unless it's somehow inside the Hump-dome, what is the point of telling us this? In case we brought our laptops to the game and are wondering what it's doing outside?

Lowell to the 15 day DL. He can let that hip heal as well as the Oblique.
Casey will get some PT. Good thing they have him.

EDIT: I forgot he hurt his oblique last night too.

Ripostes on Abraham..............

"Cano is having a MEts game when he made 3 errors in a game..

He is literally a buffooon.

this is the dumbest team in baseball, no doubt about it..

these guys must watch barney and cartoons.."





"How do players like Mauer, Angels 1Bman whose name I can't spell, Garret Anderson steal successfully against the Yankees, but supposed basestealers Abreu and Jeter get thrown out 40%?"

"
Nice effort to try and catch the ball when you are the guy covering on the play Robbie. What focus. What a player.

This kid is playing himself off this team with every brain dead moment.

What an unbelievably bad player he has become."

Girardi has to go. These mistakes are inexcusable. I’ve seen better little league than this garbage."

"yanks don’t even know who is covering the bag, LOL its just comical right now, all u can do is laugh, ugh"

I see they brought Pauley up. Good since they burned through the pen pretty good last night. Only Timlin and Masterson didn't come in and I think Jed through 3 Innings warming up last night!!
