**Official Twins vs Da Indians thread**

Post by Hornets »

Still coming down from the high of that Rosario throw to the plate! With the Tribe losing the lead now stands at 6.5, and now is NO time to ease up on the throttle. The euphoria of last night's game will be lost if our local 9 doesn't take this series, and with Clevinger pitchin Sunday it would behoove our boys to win the first 2. Pineda goes tonight, weather will be wonderful (Sunday, not so much), and it's time to let Cleveland know that THIS is OUR year!!

WIN TWINS!!

22 games left. Twins are 17-7 in their last 24. If they go 16-6 from here on out, they shut Cleveland out of the division. I would love to see them finish strong and get a couple more SPs back on track. Let's go get home field in the first round!

Adam Plutko vs Michael Pineda
Aaron Civale vs Jake Odorizzi
Mike Clevinger vs Undecided

2 out of 3 and keep the pressure on.

Of course winning this series would be ideal but at this point, just avoid the sweep. If we can leave next weekend still up 3.5 games, ill be happy.

Are final 13 are against the bottom of the AL Central.

That being said, if they truly want to prove who they want to be.. you sweep cleveland and take the lead to 9.5 and cleveland shuts it down.

Any chance we see Mike Smithson if Filson struggles?

Smithson has mustache inflammation. He's on a rehab assignment with the Visilia Oaks.

I'm not sure these are correct. The home pitcher is usually named last. :thinking:

Tom Candiotti had a pretty good knuckleball, and one hell of a unibrow back in the day.

Smithson was really tall, 6'8" I believe...Butcher maybe 6'3 or 6'4. Neither of them were very good!

Finally bats get going...and over at one run.
Got a guy on the ropes a little with a guy on third and Castro swings at the first pitch. Make the pitcher beat you.

Garver needs to be the catcher full time come post season. Schoop should be on the bench as well.
