Probables:

After getting rained out on Friday night, I again made the trip from DC to Baltimore to see the Twins play in person on Sunday. Although they lost, it was a fun game to watch. Being at Camden Yards always gets me excited for outdoor baseball in Minnesota. I've posted some pictures [...]

SBG Previews the 111th game of the Twins season between the Twins and Cleveland Indians. It's not just another game, though, as it marks the return of Francisco Liriano to the Twins starting rotation.

[Note: our guy ubelmann is taking a break from posting game logs at the WGOM for a while. He's got family in town and for some reason he thinks that's more important than communicating his thoughts to you about this game. The nerve, I tell ya! So, I'm filling for him.]

Livan vs. Cliff Lee
We're getting to the point where writers start talking about "must-win" series. I don't really believe in must-win situations, though, unless a team would be mathematically eliminated by losing. I've seen too many crazy things happen in my life to believe that a somewhat larger deficit is going to become [...]

The Twins try to wash the taste of that Yankees series out of their mouth with a three game set in Cleveland this weekend. The Twins enter on a four game losing streak, 2.5 games back of the White Sox in the AL Central.
Sometimes I think the Twins feel a bit overmatched in Yankee stadium.

So, I just started on a rather ill-advised internet journey, and even though I should go to bed, I feel strangely compelled to complete that journey.
My first mistake was to check LEN3's game report to see what everyone had to say about Carlos Bunty McBunterson vs. Cliff Can't Be Bothered To Field His Position Lee.
"I [...]

Cliff Lee Is Not That Good vs. Perkins
Don't get me wrong--Cliff Lee has still be great this year, but his xFIP of 3.15 is much higher than his ERA of 2.26 and while he'll probably start the All-Star Game (and it's not a terrible idea for him to do that), I would personally choose Halladay [...]

Laffey v. Slowey
I didn't get to watch the game yesterday, but looking at the box score, it was good to see that the Twins put a bunch of runs on the board. Delmon's been pretty hot lately, which I am really glad to see. Having him hit well over the second half of [...]

Byrd v. Livan
Both starting pitchers today have managed to limit their walks allowed quite well, while at the same time being overall crappy pitchers. But some offensive fireworks would be rather appropriate for Independence Day, don't you think?

It's gotta be better than Dazzle bobbleheads (or Mauer's adhesive sideburns), right? Found this at the end of davidwatts link about the cheapest stadium beers. "Allo, Cleveland!"

Livan Hernandez vs. Aaron Laffey
You know, I would love for Livan to really be the exception to defense-independent pitching statistics. I would love for him to go out there and use his guile and competitive nature and his veteranness to prevent more runs than you would expect based on his strikeouts, walks, and ground [...]

Nick Blackburn vs. Paul Byrd
After game 59, the Twins were "on pace" for about 85 wins. Today they are "on pace" for about 77 wins. Ignoring for a moment that that's not a very good way to project forward a team's final record, this hasn't been a very fun stretch, has it?
But let's [...]

Staring at a sweep at the hands of their closest rivals, the Twins turned to their 41 year old fifth starter on Sunday, Terry Mulholland. Mulholland is 3-6 with a 4.73 ERA. He couldn't break a plane of glass with his fastball. And he just might be the most important pitcher on [...]

On two consecutive nights, the Indians have pounded the Twins and have done so by scoring at least four runs in the first inning. They have beaten the Twins by a combined score of 15-3. That Cleveland has scored 15 runs is not all that surprising -- they are leading the majors in runs scored. [...]
