High Hopes
Well, the Twins begin their second half tonight. Right now we are in a scoreless game with the Angels and Brett Boone in in the lineup.... Batting 3rd.
This better not happen ever again. Seriously. Brett Boones OPS this season against lefties: .692. At least he is better than Juan FREAKIN Castro and his .547 OPS!
I do think we will make the playoffs as a wild card because Gardy cannot be crazy enough to bat Brett Boone third for the rest of the year. This is probably just due to Washburn, a lefty, pitching. Boone should probably bat 7th against right-handers, depending on the matchups. Tonight is probably just some show of confidence Gardy is giving to Boone. It is one of those ego boosters and intangible things that will help the team. I myself, prefer tangible things that win games, such as runs. Right now we have none of those so it just goes to show what a show of confidence can do for the team. Hopefully we can at least get a third baserunner in this game.
The 3-1 pitch to Boone.... does the magic start now!? Nope, he flied out to left field lowering his average to .229. Maybe we can get Juan Castro to make up for the lack of production in the 3 spot....
OH LORD, what did I just say?
