1. The game will be delayed, as it is currently raining at target field.

2. I guess we're using this game log? This is the free game of the day on MLB.tv.

   1. Sorry, didn't know that there was another game log. I was just taking my Saturday turn.

      Looks like CH put a lot more thought into his. Oops.

      1. No big deal. I noticed there wasn't one in the can mid-afternoon and set that one to go live a half hour before game time just in case.

3. If we are, please note that CarterHayes asked a solid trivia question in the other one. After going through some players who played for both the Twins and Rangers, he said:

   Only a small handful of these shared alumni – less than ten percent – played for only those two teams. The most notable of these was a starter for a Twins team that won more than 90 games. He finished his seven year career with 1.8 rWAR. Who is he?

   1. Without thinking a lot (normal for me)

      Mike Smithson

4. 6:55 start time.

5. This is about the slowest national anthem I've ever heard.

6. I don't know what the featured image is, but it was the result when I searched for images with "fail", and that seems appropriate for a Gibson.

   I think it's from Pepper documenting a cake transfer.

7. So the entire bullpen has thrown 5 innings in the last 5 days and Sano is hurt, and they send down a position player to keep a 8-man bullpen? Very stupid.

8. Chris Gimenez is batting fourth.

9. Chris Gimenez is the cleanup hitter. Weird.

   A quick check sees that this is his second career start as cleanup hitter.

10. This is a very Gibson start so far.

    1. He's following the script from last night. Give up two in the top of the first, score four in the bottom of the first.

       1. Who didn't get Hamels an updated copy of the script??

       2. Unfortunately, the Twins batters failed to follow that script.

          1. Who could have imagined that with this potent lineup.

    2. My first thought to post here too: "How very Gibsonian"

11. Well, if Gibson shuts out the Rangers over the next 4 innings, he'll still have a quality start.

12. Hamels has thrown 15 pitches in 2 innings. Way to grind out those at-bats.

13. Veteran bench at least

14. Stretching a single to an easy out.

15. I need some rally nachos.

16. Another waste of a non-Gibsonianesqueish type start
