Gives up his first BB.

Good PA by somebody called Dusty Ryan.

Dusty Rhodes? What?

by Jesse on Jul 4, 2009 4:37 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I dont get that

D Ryan is batting a paltry .167…its like giving up a walk to Tolbert! he should have just thrown it right over the plate and let him hit it….

by 33MorneauMVP on Jul 4, 2009 4:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yup.

That’s 40 pitches through two innings. The four K’s look good, but TODAY, of ALL DAYS, the Twins need Liriano to go as long as humanely possible. He won’t last at 20 shots per inning.

Okay, heads up guys...4-pitch walk by Edwin Jackson and his rogue fastball.

Let’s see if the Twins can take the obivous hint that Jackson’s hit-and-miss control is currently miss, and take a few pitches this inning.

Guerrier only had 19 pitches yesterday, so he’ll be the guy (Keppel had 14, so he’s ok to go probably)

Liriano: 90 pitches thru six.

With all the bullpen used last night, even at this count I have to believe he’ll come out for the 7th. He pretty much has to. If he can keep it to a two-inning night for the ‘pen, that’d be amazing.

Amazing on top of not allowing a run.

Liriano

If we go through the rotation with Swarzak taking Slowey’s spot, Liriano wouldn’t pitch again until next Friday…I think he can go over 100 a bit.

looking at the schedule

he’ll probably get the start on Sat. the 11th vs CHI, saving Baker from pitching on 3 days rest…

Is Morales good enough to start for another team?

He could be trade bait. Mauer isn’t going anywhere.

by DavidRF on Jul 4, 2009 5:58 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Morales doesn't have the defensive rep

that teams like, and his minor league numbers offensively aren’t impressive either. With Redmond’s age, Morales is of more value to us than as trade bait. Young, more projectible catchers would be more lkely to be dealt right now.

by Jesse on Jul 4, 2009 6:00 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

OK...

If he doesn’t project to get more than 100 PA/yr anyways, then we should keep him.

no

he’s pitched fine. he’ll go 7 and give up 3 ER

One of those common games where the Twins bats get 1-3 runs and then fall asleep if they have the lead. Bats need to pick him up better than this.

Very "Twins"

Can’t tell you how many times we’ve grabbed a 1-2 run lead in the 4th or 5th and then the bats give up for the rest of the night. Then we blame Gardy/Starter/Pen if the lead gets blown.

Is a fantastic game nonetheless.

Gardy going for the stat

leaving him in after the walk so he has a chance for the W

by ajmargarine on Jul 4, 2009 6:06 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I don't think that's really accurate.

The bullpen is washed, and there’s no excuse for Liriano to NOT get one more out. After giving up that HR, it was the best managerial decision he could make to leave him in. Plus, it lets Liriano finish on a positive note.

by Jesse on Jul 4, 2009 6:08 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Fair enough.

Yeah, Lizzy still can get the W here if the offense decides to show up. A bloop and (another) blast would be helpful.

I'm sorry. You must now not watch Cops.

You have voided your trashiness factor.

Stars of the Game brought to you by Dairy Queen

1. Morneau
2. Punto

A shame we didn't have the lead the entire game.

Liriano pitched like a game winning pitcher, 5 hits and 2 walks with that one blemish of a homerun with 2 on.

Favorite Comedians: Mike Birbiglia, Doug Benson, Daniel Tosh, Delmon Young in Left Field.
