I have actually enjoyed watching the past 2 games. Congrats to Pavano on win #100, great to see a complete game. The less we have to see the bullpen, the better. Nice to see some life in the bats, even among these AAA players.

Yeah, a big win; 18 more in a row and they'll be at .500.

Thank God. Get some life into this team!

It was a good win. Although I can do without Delmon making me hold my breath everytime a ball is hit out to left field anywhere near him. When he let the ball skip over his glove for an error I seen the look on Pavanos face on the replay and it almost looked like he was saying... not again? Anyways at least we got the win AND have a winning streak going. Hopefully they can keep it up!

Gardenhire needs to stay away from his damn nicknames for his guys and continue to refer to them by their last names

OK, we get it. We all know the Twins have put themselves in a terrible spot with their current record. They still have a ridiculous crater to dig out of. But it's nice to see Ben Revere starting to show what the team saw in him. Good to see Pavano get a complete game, even if it was shaky at times (as usual - it just can tip either way with Carl). Span and Casilla are clearly sparking the offense a little, and the deservedly-derided Cuddy is actually producing a little. Morneau shows promise then slips backward but then maybe starts to be more consistent? Hopefully. I've been extremely pessimistic lately, like everybody else, but if you go out and win, there's always that chance.

Thankfully for the Twins, the Royals are once again the Royals.

Congrats to Carl Pavano for career win 100 and a complete game.

A nice win; hitting, pitching and defense. Everything working tonight.

Glad to see Plouffe gone. Sorry to see Hughes playing. Those two guys are AAA all the way. Be nice if Delmon could get going so someone will want him. He's a waffle iron in the field, but a team hoping for offense might offer something halfway decent.
