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 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.
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.
