The Twins will finish up their roadtrip with a three-game series against the Texas Rangers starting tonight.

Nick Blackburn will take the mound looking to get the team back on track after two straight losses.

Hopefully the Twins can score early and often and maybe get a little confidence after losing the series to Oakland.....

Blackburn MUST keep the ball down otherwise the ball will be flying all over the place....

Luckily Milwood has never really had great success vs. Twins....0-5 with a 5.64 ERA vs. Twins....

Lets go Offense....hit the ball around.

I think the catcher was just going to see if Gomez was going to go there with that sneaky TO!!

don't know...but I don't think it is very good.

it doesnt matter anyways....Gomez almost stole third but Morneau had to swing since he had two strikes.

1-0 Twins

You really have to like how the starters have done this month. They have certainly impressed me. Where would the Twins be without Nick, Livan and Scott? This rotation had issues all over it, but all those three have done is do their job. I think they are going to get better.

Re:Game 23: Texas Rangers 2 Weeks, 2 Days ago Hits: 1  
what does everybody think? should the Twins rest Gomez every 15-20 games? since being rested Gomez has gone 3-5 with a homer and 2 bunt singles and 1 SB.....prior to that he was 6-44...ugh.

I think the Twins should sit Gomez every 20 games or so to clear his head and get hands on advice from the coaches sitting on the bench. I think it would be good for a young superstar CF like Gomez

Well every player will go through what Carlos went through during a course of the season. It happens. I like to see guys take a mental day off if they are slumping. I think Delmon Young is on his way to get one real soon because he has been scuffling.

I think so too since he has been scuffling and they will put Kubs out there....it will probably help him like it helped Gomez....

btw, Gomez got another bunt base hit! 2-2 in this game and 4-6 in the past two
