Game 3: LA Angels 6 Months, 2 Weeks ago Hits: 5  
The Twins are 1-1 and will look for their second win tonight against the LA Angels.

Gardenhire is already making us mad, sitting Mike Lamb for Nick Punto:

1. Carlos Gomez, CF
2. Brendan Harris, 2B
3. Michael Cuddyer, RF
4. Justin Morneau, 1B
5. Delmon Young, LF
6. Craig Monroe, DH
7. Mike Redmond, C
8. Nick Punto, 3B
9. Adam Everett, SS

This is the place to discuss the game...

GO TWINS!

I'll be here on and off throughout the game too...

I'm still pretty mad that Gardenhire took Lamb out of the lineup. I don't care if there is a lefty on the hill or not, Lamb is our everyday 3B, and should be out there. Mauer I can see with a day game tomorrow and a lefty. It'd probably be better for him to play tomorrow if they have to pick one.

Adam Everett has been removed from the lineup. He was at BP and at the park, before leaving due to a family issue. Matt Tolbert has taken his place for his first career start.

Hopefully, everything will be fine with Everett...

I agree. Hope everything's ok with him. Why can't we put Punto on SS and put Lamb back into line up at 3B?

Hopefully, the Twins will get their FIRST homer tonight off of Saunders...

I thought one was going to go out last night but I was wrong...

I thought they'd hit one last night as well. It has to come soon right?

Also, I'm fine with Tolbert getting a chance to start now tha Everett can't. But Lamb should 100% be in the lineup against the lefty. We signed him to play everyday, no just against right-handed pitchers.

It'll be fun to watch Delmon again tonight, he's 5-8 so far.

How do you think Blackburn will do in his first start? It should be interesting today and tomorrow with two young guys (Slowey tomorrow) on the hill.

Go Delmon...he is the only good Twin so far...then Gomez!!!

Gomez hopefully will get on tonight and make the pitcher think about him again!

Tolbert hopefully will have all the jitters out now that he came in last night....

Lamb should play...there is no reason to play Punto...Lamb hasnt made any bad plays over at third to even have this decision made and he is 200x better hitter than Punto.

I don't know, to be honest. I can only hope the offense help him out.

I really don't know what to expect from either. I'm hoping for a Livan type start for his first time

I thought Gomez did a nice job last night. 1-4 isn't horrible especially the way the rest of the offense went.

Blackburn will do fine I think...not brilliant but fine

He probably will give up a few runs - He MUST keep the ball down though.

Offense will have to give him run support...we saw what happened when we scored two early runs with Hernandez on the mound...lets do the same tonight!

With Punto in the lineup instead of Lamb the offense will suffer more...

Hopefully Blackburn can get off the a better start than Boof too. That didn't help being down right away.

I'll be on and off throughout the game...
