o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Another good question! The problem is if Dickey sucks again it's offset by all the hard hit balls to the OF fence in his own game. looks like it might get up to a balmy 40 degrees F tomorrow. at this point the forecast shows 0% POP. it's going to be a long cold day in hell tomorrow. I wonder if Lind can be ready to go tomorrow? he's going to be a liability at some point this season. no way his back holds if he's already in trouble now.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 I've heard of a day/night doubleheader. But the split part confused me. I was thinking of minor leagues where they play 2 7 inning games. It's a split-squad. Half the team will play at Target Field at 3:00 pm, and the other half at the University of Minnesota's field at the same time. They're allowed to call up guys from Buffalo and use 22 guys in each game. Should be fun.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 I highly doubt we'll be seeing any of Lind for a while... If Lind and Rasmus keep missing games day to day we're f***ed. We need those bats. Would DL and call up Gose and Francisco if you knew they were going to push a week or more.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 Oh, and why is Moises Sierra still on this team?!?!?!?
DickeyJohnsonWang Verified Member Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 will the Dickey effect be that much more significant if they play in the same day? Of course it's more likely he just gets crushed and it's a moot point but it could be an impact on the night game if he baffles hitters in the afternoon.
flafson Verified Member Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Didnt realize the roof slides over the tracks like that, pretty smart engineering. Cool. Minnesota dropped the ball by not building a retractable roof, I dont understand that at all. A roof like that can easily cost 100 million, even 200. So, paying that much money for what, 5 games in a year? Might not make the most sense.
Sparky12 Verified Member Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Man this lineup is sure gonna look a lot worse with no Lind and Rasmus, is Rasmus expected to play tomorrow or no news?

Might not make the most sense. A roof is a far greater necessity in a rainy climate like Seattle where you could potentially lose a lot of games throughout the year. One especially crappy winter doesn't make Target Field a bad idea.
walkoff93 Verified Member Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 That doesn't bode well for our bullpen at all. Don't teams get to add a 26th man to the roster, for a doubleheader? pretty sure I heard that somewhere.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 Don't teams get to add a 26th man to the roster, for a doubleheader? pretty sure I heard that somewhere. Yeah you can. where are the Bisons right now? Gose or Francisco? I guess that depends on Colby's status
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 Oh, I guess it's been decided
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 For God's sake, keep him up and put Sierra on waivers after the games tomorrow
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 Can we just keep Gose here and tell Sierra to GTFO? Just "forget" to take him on the plane to Cleveland. He'll never figure out what happened or be able to find the team again.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 I wonder if he'd get claimed? I guess the Mariners would probably want him as a CF. LOL. No doubt. #JackZStyle
