Series Thread: Four games at the Twins, 7/30 - 8/2

[AceKeptic]

Thursday: J. A. Crapp v Hughes
Friday: Taijuan-on v Milone
Saturday: Montgomery v Gibson
Sunday: Iwakuma v Pelfrey

After Felix's getting shelled on Wednesday (playing with team mentality, I see), how do they pick themselves up now?

GET SWEPT...AGAIN.

JA CRAPP is right... Trade value takes another hit tonight...

 

[unlvmariners]

Good god Happ.... just terrible

 

[Anointed One]

Funny that our hitting is finally coming around to a point and now our SP is taking a crap...

 

[Anointed One]

Crapp is just throwing batting practice tonight..

For the first time in awhile, I actually feel like I have a reason to watch.

I always watch, of course, but you know what I mean.

 

[Anointed One]

Maybe good T. Walker is in the house tonight... He didn't give up a hit or run in the 1st inning...

 

[Anointed One]

Nice AB by Trumbo after being down, 0-2...

 

[Anointed One]

Walker is absolutely on fire! He's dealin tonight! 6 K's thru 3 innings...

 

[Anointed One]

MONTERO

FTW

Good for Montero...he never should have been sent down after the Yankees series

I really hope he does well and sticks it to Jack and Lloyd. Looks like he added some weight back, but not in a bad way.

Good to see them shifting gears and bringing up some of the young talent and I'll certainly be pulling for them, but I actually want to see the M's lose as many games as possible down the stretch while those guys find success individually. I want NO doubt at the end of the year that the organization needs to be blown up and rebuilt. Jack HAS to go. Period. And take every piece of dead weight right along with you.

agreed on both counts

Didn't see yesterday's game but from what I read Walker had a good feel for his curve. That pitch will be difference in him being just a guy and a solid starter in this league. Hope he can continue to develop it the next two months
