Game 31: Twins vs. The Clevelands

19 Comments

Starters: Samuel Deduno (and his Magical Zoomball) (0-1, 2.89 ERA) vs. Josh "Probably a Jeremy" Tomlin (Stats-less)

Dedsy returns to the starting rotation from his spot letting inherited runners in to score in place of Big Pelf, so regardless what happens tonight it'll almost surely be better than it could have been.

I wasn't able to follow last night's game at all. When I got home and checked the score, seeing Escobar as the guy who hit the home run was about as far from what I had expected as possible. At this point, I really don't see why Florimon is on the big club when the bench could really use someone who could actually provide some pop in those late inning situations. But, I suppose I don't control those things and the Twins are at .500, so there is that.

Anywho, tonights opponent is making his first start of the season, so this would seem like a really good game for Twin's hitters to get their walking mojo working. Tomlin's stats make him look a lot like a lot of the starters the Twins have trotted out over the past few years, striking out few and giving up runs. I have a good feeling their new organizational edict at the plate will prevent this from being a typical Jeremy game.

  3. Hi guys! Remember that time Colabello let a ball go right between his legs? Me neither.

  12. I feel kind of sorry for Atteberry. He gets so few chances to call games, and then when he does get a chance, his voice goes out on him.

  15. Well, on the plus side, it only took about half as long as it would have if Pelfrey had pitched. And only about a third as long as a Red Sox-Yankees game.

    1. I was at the 5-8 grill (Champlin) at the start of the game. When we left it was 0-4 through 2, I thought it was going to be horrible.
      2-4 loss with only two pitchers used is much better than I would have expected at that time.
