Sunday’s Odds

Minnesota +120 Boston -130.
The Twins once again couldn't solve David Wells. Wells, who weighs more and is older than SBG (and I'm taller), baffled Twins hitters for six innings, throwing up six doughnuts (surprisingly, he didn't eat them). In the seventh, Wells ran out of gas and the Twins got three straight hits to plate (mmmm, plate) two runs.
Once again, I got this game right, even though I missed out on how it would be played. Wells was the story. Then again, a lot of starting pitchers have been the story this year against the Twins, who are just three runs better than the worst offense in the AL (they'd be 10th in the NL, where as you know the pitcher bats).
The Twins are rumored to be going after Alphonso Soriano. I don't get it. Where will he play? I mean, J.C. Twin is anchored at 2B... I'll discuss Soriano later today.

No mention of Mulholland putting yet another game in the books? I'm disappointed.
I hate picking on the oldsters too much. It's not nice. Actually, I missed that part of the game.
Lucy and I went out for dinner, (the question was how is everything tonight -- talk about an open ended question!!!!) and I missed the three run inning. Really, though the game was over early when the Sox scored three in the first three innings.
