Big 3 game series in Minny.


Todays game:

Salazar vs Albers - Advantage Tribe

Tomorrow:
McAllister vs Deduno - Advantage Hitters

Weds:

Carrasco vs Gibson - Advantage everybody but the pitchers






Roll Tribe. It's time to put together a 22 game winning streak. Who is with me?

I expect another sweep. Pitching sucks and our bats have gone silent.

Hopefully you can build off your last thread start where we barely managed to escape getting swept by Seattle.

If somebody picks him up...will they have to take all his salary too? If so, I'd expect he'd pass thru.

I think it's just what's owed. Indians say its so he can have an unconditional release.

He'll sign with the Yankees or Tigers and return to spring form.

Looking forward to watching Salazar. On the positive side there is no Miggy on Minny.

Mauer and Morneau can be pretty dangerous.

If you don't count the first 2 games, I'm 1-0. Looking to build my streak

I think we can stop thinking that Danny Salazar is a baseball god. He is a young pitcher, and young pitchers still have a lot to learn and are inconsistent.



....on top of that, Twins are catching every break imaginable.

Yikes. Seems like they just hit the give up button. A fucking joke. Guess they got us to Browns season. Id be surprised if they are still in the hunt at the end of August.

The sad part is, if they win 4 of the next 5, we will be sucked right back in.

Looks like Minnesota might have a stud on their hands. Albers with a 2 hit Shutout in his 2nd career appearance. No ER in in 17.1 IP and 6 hits. He is 27 however.

And only throws 86. Hitters will figure him out.
