Good point on Blackburn. Once the rosters expand in September, I assume he'll be back. Maybe Burnett and/or Slama as well. It doesn't sound like Neshek has his velocity back yet.

I would hope they put Blackburn on the 40-man. I don't think they want to risk losing him.

They never took Blackburn off the 40-man roster. I was curious so I looked up the current 40-man roster, here it is:

Scott Baker, P, MLB
Matt Capps, P, MLB
Jesse Crain, P, MLB
Brian Duensing, P, MLB
Matt Guerrier, P, MLB
Francisco Liriano, P, MLB
Ron Mahay, P, MLB
Jeff Manship, P, MLB
Carl Pavano, P, MLB
Glen Perkins, P, MLB
Jon Rauch, P, MLB
Kevin Slowey, P, MLB
Drew Butera, C, MLB
Joe Mauer, C, MLB
Alexi Casilla, 2B, MLB
JJ Hardy, SS, MLB
Orlando Hudson, 2B, MLB
Nick Punto, 3B, MLB
Danny Valencia, 3B, MLB
Michael Cuddyer, RF, MLB
Jason Kubel, RF, MLB
Jason Repko, RF, MLB
Denard Span, CF, MLB
Delmon Young, LF, MLB
Jim Thome, DH, MLB
Jose Mijares, P, DL
Justin Morneau, 1B, DL
Nick Blackburn, P, AAA (Rochester)
Alex Burnett, P, AAA (Rochester)
Estarlin De Los Santos, SS, AA (New Britain)
Rob Delaney, P, AAA (Rochester)
Deolis Guerra, P, AA (New Britain)
Luke Hughes, 3B, AAA (Rochester)
Jose Morales, C, AAA (Rochester)
Pat Neshek, P, AAA (Rochester)
Trevor Plouffe, SS, AAA (Rochester)
Anthony Slama, P, AAA (Rochester)
Anthony Swarzak, P, AAA (Rochester)
Matt Tolbert, 3B, AAA (Rochester)

By my count, they have 1 open spot on the 40-man. Must be from when they dropped Harris from it at some point this season.

With Baker on the mound best not to get too confident. Hell he just gave up a bomb to Konerko. No lead is safe with Moonshot :D

Whatever you know I am right. Hell he almost gave up another to Quentin ;)

This is the only weak matchup in the series, I didnt expect to win this one. Baker is not a big game pitcher.

Yeah...Moonshot is friggin amazing! :rolleyes:
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

Hahaha. I guess he thought Danks' stuff was great and wanted to give it a try.
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

Even though he just struck out, would like to say it is nice that Mauer has gotten back to consistently get hits. His average is now back to where we all hoped it would be.

Danks seems to have no control of his pitches, and he is the best pitcher the Sux have! Gotta love that :)

I love giving dx crap :p

Go Twins!
(Moonshot is not a big game pitcher)
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

Holy ****ing ****!!!! I Didn't Think He Could Do That!!!!!!
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

Kube Cred just bailed Moonshot out :eek:
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

So 3 more runs before Gardy even warms someone up to replace Scott?

Kubel trying to keep Baker in the game with a spectacular dive.
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010: Part IV - Thome's Quest for 600

I'm not going to lie, I was screaming at the TV begging delmon not to even think about it...
