Benchwarmerjim Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Morneau I didnt catch quite what it was, but Punto, at least the radio guys said, looks like he pulled a hammy on a stolen base attempt. They were saying it didnt look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchwarmerjim Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 HAHA With Punto on the DL, the Twins called up Terry Tiffee. For what it seems like the 30th time this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it seems like the 30th time this year Hopefully the sox will face Tiffee when they play the Twins, nothing like when Hawk goes into his, "Terry Tiffee Timmy Tuffee" thingy, IDK but it gets me laughin, anyone else know what I'm talkin about?

Benchwarmerjim Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 (edited) from the StarTribune -- The Twins went into Friday's game with the Yankees unsure when first baseman Justin Morneau and catcher Joe Mauer would be available. They went home after the game feeling better about their availability. Morneau swung off a tee before the Twins' 6-3 victory at the Metrodome and said his sore left elbow gave him some problems. But he will try again today and could start if he feels better. Morneau did enter Friday's game as a defensive replacement at first for Terry Tiffee in the ninth inning. If he still has problems ... "If he struggles we will shoot him up [with cortisone] and let him get ready for Tuesday," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. Twins team doctors said Mauer should be able to avoid a stint on the disabled list. He was available to pinch hit on Friday. Once problem Mauer is having is that his athletic cup is aggravating his pulled left groin muscle, especially when he swings. Padding will be added to the area to cut down on the discomfort. my goodness. lol Edited June 4, 2005 by Benchwarmerjim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
