Sep 17th, 2008 | By brianS | Category: 2008 Twins Game Logs

Here I am, trying to buck the recent trend of Game Log previews. Enough of the Donald Judd/Carl Andre/Richard Serra stuff already!

Probables:
Scottie Baker (4.28 xFIP, 115 tRA+, 1.20 WHIP, .389 SLGA, 123:39 K:BB in 153.67 innings) vs.

Game 102: Twins at Cleveland

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.

Nick Blackburn vs. Gavin Floyd
Floyd's peripherals were bad the last time we faced him, and they haven't gotten any better. Boof denied his unicorn last time, and now it's time for Blackburn to deny it yet again.
Random crap because I don't have much else to say about the pitching matchup:
- Jon Garland has but [...]
