I have my MLB Extra Innings package in force and I'm ready for the game. Sale hasn't been as tough on the Twins as some other teams, so we have a chance.

Our starting pitching should be so much better than last year. Can you believe we went into the season last year with a rotation of Worley, Correia, Pelfrey, Hendricks and Devries??? But I have concerns about our lineup of course. Tough to get excited about Suzuki in the 2 hole and a struggling Willingham batting cleanup. And Florimon should not be starting against LHP as long as he continues to flail from the right side.

64 degrees in Chi-town...let's go get 'em!

Well, that was fun. Nolasco started out well. Two double plays. Then throws a meatball and it gets yacked for a 2-R bomb. Twins down early.

Good job Kurt. 2-R single to tie it up. Make 'em pay.

Also nice to see Hicks get a hit earlier in the inning.

Let's see if Ricky can get his third DP of the game right here. One on one out.

Yep, might be time to get Deduno loose.

What a catch by Florimon...man, he's fast!

Not what I hoped for in Nolasco's Twins debut, especially against fucking Chicago.
