Minnesota Twins at New York Yankees, Oct 7, 2009 6:07 PM EDT
First Pitch: 5:07pm CDT
TV: TBS
Radio: Twins Radio Network
Know Thine Enemy: Pinstripe Alley
Last night was awesome. Without a doubt one of the greatest games I've experienced as a Twins fan, and that includes the close of 2006. But that's all over, and it's time to focus on the next challenge, and that comes in the form of the New York Yankees. The dreaded Bombers.
This year the Yanks owned the Twins, with Minnesota going winless in seven meetings. But as I said on my Q&A over at Pinstripe Alley, that was when the Twins were playing some pretty bad baseball and it still took the Yankees needing a last-second hit to earn their victory. Now, the the Twins clicking, this series just might not be the pushover that everyone is expecting.
If the Twins can steal game one, momentum will shift dramatically. Let's go take down Goliath.
Speaking of Goliath, here's our old nemesis Sabathia. He's having a good season, and in his only start against Minnesota went seven strong innings, holding the Twins to one run off three hits and a walk. His walk-to-strikeout ratio is the worst it's been in years, but that doesn't mean he's been bad. Because he hasn't. Sabathia is still a very good pitcher, and his numbers reflect that. His flyball ratio is up slightly as well, with the ground-ball rate down, meaning the potential of damaging extra-base hits goes up. What is interesting about Sabathia this year is that his slider hasn't really been his money pitch. The changeup is still dominant, but this year it's counterpart has been Sabathia's fastball. It will be interesting to see which pitch he goes to when he's looking to put someone away.
Well Brian, this is why you become a major league pitcher. It's been a fantastic debut for you and here's hoping you can pick up your first playoff victory today. We all know what needs to happen here, so godspeed and best of luck. We're all behind you. Partially because we support you, but partially because we're afraid C.C. Sabathia might sit on us. You first.

Go Twins!
I just hope they relax and play loose.
I get so frustrated when they tighten-up and over-swing, take crazy fielding risks and over-manage against the Yankees. It does nothing but magnifies their “on-paper” advantages.
Embrace the role of the underdog. Do what we did to get here in the first place and we should be able to steal a game or two (or three! :-)).

That's a pretty muderous Yankee starting lineup.
I’m a Yankee fan and I just can’t see you guys pulling this game off. But really, to make this series in your favor, you just need one of these first two. AJ Burnett worries me on Friday, especially since Posada won’t be catching so there is a bat out of the lineup. Add to it that your guys will be rested, and a lot of signs are pointing to game 2 as your chance to steal one in NY.
That isn’t to say this game will be a blowout though. I just don’t like your odds in this one.

and Kubel was DH but whatever. GO TWINS!!!

It gives Gardy some ability to make moves late in the game
To pinch run for Kubel or pinch hit Morales or Redmond and then let Gomez run for them. Normally during the year I’d like Gomez playing more outfield yes, but gotta do it with Cuddyer at 1B.

I don't really get this argument
Don’t start your best guys so in case some situation arises later you can make a move?
I actually think putting Kubel at DH gives you more flexibility, because you don’t have to remove him from the game in order to get your best defenders in there. You still have Casilla to pinch run, and if you want to pinch hit for Gomez, with say Harris, you can still do it, and move Cuddyer to the OF and put Harris at first.

Ron Darling
I’ve read a lot of griping about the TBS team. IMHO, Chip Carey is a goof, but Ron Darling is solid. Most baseball color guys have never read a book; Darling wrote one (well-reviewed by the NYTimes, btw). Note the number of times that Darling makes prescient comments tonight. He sees what’s coming.
And even if Carey is clownish, he still gets a lot less wrong than John Gordon.
by wcooley on Oct 7, 2009 4:31 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Yea but he had
his head so far up Wonder Boys but last night he couldnt remember all that stuff
Also go look at some of the threads last night and c all the comments posted about his idiotic quotes during the game like
Both teams have done such a good job coming back against the Tiger

Really?
I thought Darling was AWFUL last night. Grating voice, and he made Gladden sound like a thinking, progressive baseball mind. I grew up listening to Chip’s dad and grandpa on TBS and WGN, so I have a soft spot for him to begin with, and I thought he was passable.
I will hear no more bad mouthing of John Gordon, good sir.

Darling had a lot of gaffs last night--clearly unprepared
I didn’t mind Carey so much.
Gordon is the worst. If there was any doubt of that, it was completely erased over the weekend, when they called maybe 10% of the balls and strikes and spent the rest of the time chatting.

I completely agree about Gordon
and I know our opinion is in the minority. He makes a lot of exciting calls, but they’re far outnumbered by irritating gaffes. The listener is often left completely in the dark as to what’s going on when Gordon’s calling the game.

did he really write a book?
or did he “write” a book like Sarah Palin just did?
regardless, the TBS crew were pretty much homers for Detroit last night and hard to listen to. My favorite though is going on about how much the win would have meant to the city of Detroit…what does that have to do with anything?
I hope they get better as the playoffs continue (and I hope they realize there are just too many days off in the postseason)

I disagree that they were homers for Detroit
and think your bias is coloring your view. Darling is an announcer—by definition he’s going to annoy you, and he isn’t a Twins expert. But I thought he was OK. He actually is very smart. Went to Yale. Dropped a completely obscure Dag Hammarskjold reference on the air yesterday—how many guys bring that?

good and valid points
and I seem to remember him broadcasting before but I also don’t remember being so annoyed by him.
maybe the pressure of the game got to me?
but my feelings that they were pulling for Detroit only made the win feel that much better so I guess a negative = a positive for me.

Just goes to show...
Over at BYB we thought he and Carey were kissing up to the Twins excessively.
That, and the fact that Carey seriously needs a thesaurus. One thing I won’t miss is the 1200 references to “fisting”. At least he switched it up in extra innings to mention “spanking” once. Freudian much?

The Twins
are not at a disadvantage contraire to what other people think.
I have a simple philosphy for the playoffs. It doesnt matter what you did in the regular season (excluding that you had to win games to get there). Once you’re in the playoffs everything is different. There is so much adreniline, and you can’t predict a damn thing!
Look at the ‘87 Twins, as much as i hate to say it ’06 Tiggers, ’06 Cards, 07 Bo-Sox.
So I honestly believe the Twins will shock the world and take down the Yankees!!!!
And if you dont even just a sliver believe that then you have no faith in the Twins because i will admit and say that I DID write them off once Morneau got injured and that’s y i have so much faith. Good Luck Twins

It is important to remember
that a 103 win team is only about an 80% favorite against a .500 team. The Yankees are likely a 70ish percent favorite, but it’s much more possible than people think.
I still think the Yankees win though.

the Twins are playing with house money now
just go out there and have fun…everyone is expecting 3 and out but I say fight for a split and see what happens.
If you have to play the Yankees in the playoffs, better in a short series where anything can happen.
I’m probably going to get killed for that logic but it works for me.

from the startrib
“(*) Gardenhire said he tried to find a way to get Alexi Casilla in the lineup. Casilla is 9-for-13 (.692) in his career off CC Sabathia. Gardenhire said he didn’t want to stick Casilla at third base tonight. Another option would have been second base, as Nick Punto is 6-for-36 (.167) off Sabathia.”
so of course Casilla is left out of the lineup?!?
Gardy’s love of LNP knows no limits…
by caluofmn on Oct 7, 2009 4:37 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Also nonsensical
Why would he have to stick Casilla at third base? Did Punto get some sort of third base amnesia in the two years since he was the starter there?

Yeah Brain Matusz is looking good, and I’m actually pretty hopeful for next year (here’s to a .500 finish!), despite our 64-98 finish this year.
And as far as Andy MacPhail – yeah he’s been awesome, most of O’s fans have complete faith in him and his moves after some of the trades he’s pulled off. I just hope our owner (not my favorite – but at least he hasn’t sold the naming rights to Camden Yards) let’s him do his job….

they are the hot team coming in, playing with confidence. These guys are all pros, too. Sure the Yanks field a daunting lineup. But they can obviously be beat, especially in a five-game series.

The ideal lineup for tonights game
1. Span – RF
2. Cabrera – SS
3. Mauer – C
4. Cuddyer – 1B
5. Kubel – DH
6. Young – LF
7. Gomez – CF
8. Casilla – 2B
9. Punto – 3B
We need the defense tonight especially in the outfield! 50MPH winds isn’t going to do so well for the outfield we have now. I would give up Harris/Morales’ bat tonight for the defense of Gomez.

by what_would_gil_thorp_do on Oct 7, 2009 5:45 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Your boys have to be especially careful in left field.
Right field induces a “range wind” so you just have to worry about the ball “taking off” on a true trajectory. But considering how short the porch is, it shouldn’t be a problem since anything over your head is a Homerun.
However, LEFT field induces a “cross-wind” and left fielders can be EASILY fooled by turning the wrong way, then lose the ball as it peels, or straightens (counteracting the slice) due to the cross-wind.
Good Luck.
by Terrekain on Oct 7, 2009 5:54 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
It may not be as much of a Home-field advantage
for Left-fielders as your Metrodome.
But there are quirks in the new Yankee Stadium to watch out for in this game [and this wind].
Hell, even Damon hasn’t figured it all out yet.

Well...
In betting on anything over 2, you’re betting that this will turn into a pitcher’s duel.
I’m betting that the Yankees will make this a slugfest (especially in this ballpark).
Yes, there might be an early sac-bunt to get a team to an early lead, but if the Yankees are having their usual run-production, I think 2-3 is a safe bet.

I think there is a lot more pressure on New York
and we all know how ol’ CC responds to a playoff atmosphere.
In 2006, after that huge season, there was more pressure on us than Oakland, they played loose and gave us the boot.
We were supposed to send them home fairly quickly.
Sound familiar?
So I think we have a much better chance than most people think.

The target area (Yankee Stadium) is only 2 meters wide. A precise hit will start a chain reaction which should destroy the stadium.
That’s impossible! Even for a computer!

They have 2 doubles and 2 runs, assholes.

My only complaint so far is Delmon Young 6 pitches 6 swings

At the risk of being a total n00b/jerkoff/'that guy'...
Does anyone have any idea where the Twins are staying in Manhattan, or where they usually stay? I’m assuming it’s in some swank Midtown/Times Square vicinity hotel. Reason I’m asking is, no, I am not a 16 year old girl trying to marry Joe Mauer… My niece and nephew are in town from MN (I live in NYC), and since I can’t afford 3 tickets without taking out a 2nd mortgage (only half kidding…) I know they would love nothing more than to catch a glimpse of, maybe even get an autograph from a Twinkie. Obviously I’m not trying to stalk anyone or invade anyone’s privacy; just trying to be a nice uncle. If I knew what hotel they might be staying in…maybe we might have lunch across the street…and maybe we might see ol’ Cuddy Buddy out for a stroll… just sayin’ :)
