I think when Cuddyer gets back the Twins will do a four-man roation with the outfield in some way. I think they'll get Denard/Carlos in there at least three tims per week. It'd be interesting if they roated them into the DH too.

As for the roadtrip, the Twins have two key ones here in the last two months. One 14-game one here in August against the AL West. The tough part of that will be the four games against the Angels. The Twins play 20 of 29 games in August against the West including 9 against Seattle and 7 against the A's. It'll be interesting to see how they do.

This isn't good. The Indians should at least tie it up unless there is some miracle play here.

They need to get him out, he's falling apart. This really isn't looking good with two on and no outs. The way the Twins are hitting tonight, if the Indians take the lead it could beat us.

I think Blackburn is done.

When he gives up consecutive hits, he is finished.

Twins need to kill some time to get someone in relief.

I think it will be rotation with Carlos/Denard, but right now, Denard needs to play everyday. Here's what I think. Delmon Young needs to start platooning with Carlos. Delmon has been atrocious all season.

Two down, now he really needs to work out of this. It's either inning over or down 3-1...

BLACKBURN SHOWS SOME GUTS!

I tell ya what.

This might his best inning of the night IMO.

To keep this tied at 1 was impressive.

What a performance by Nicky tonight. I am so proud of the way he maintained his composure tonight.

Awesome! I hate to give up that run, but seven innings and one run in a really solid outing. The Twins need to give him some support now. He hasn't gotten a win in what seems like forever because we either blow the lead or score one run everytime.

We need to be the 'playoff' team and win this game...

I am just glad Nick found something extra in him in getting out of this. I tell ya what. He is going to be so good with this year's experience. I think he is going to be even better next year. This year, he has done such a good job. He has learned so much this year. He could win 15 games this year. That's impressive. He is going to be special. This last inning was his best moment of the night IMO.

He should have 10. There are so many that he's loss because we've blown or given no run support. Remember his first game he lost 1-0, his last game they were up 2-1 before Reyes blew it.
