    Twins tonight? Maybe. Mariners tonight? Maybe.

    Danny Santana is hitting better than .400 off of LHP this season,
    Brian Dozier has taken LHP deep 6 times this season.
    Josh Willingham BA is .281 v. LHP with an impressive .385 OBA and 3 HR's
    Kurt Suzuki hits .314 v. LHP

    If the Pino that showed up against the White Sox, not the Pino that showed up against the Angels, I think you got yourself a victory, Twins as a home underdog may be worth a play tonight.

    I'm on the KC Royals bandwagon and all, but I can see Duff-Man getting dinged up tonight some.

    Taijuan Walker makes his 2014 debut for the Mariners tonight.
    Extremely talented and highly touted joins the rotation with KIng and Iwaguma, this is not a one shot look-see.
    Was impressing last year in 3 late season starts for the M's
    Strike out artist, coming off a 4 hit 1 walk complete game shut out Tuesday in AAA

    Interesting game, fair fight, An accomploished AAA pticher with a little success in the show versus an accomplished AAA lineup (Houston) with some success already in the show.

    McHugh v. Walker
    Nice matchup - two up an comers whose future is bright.

    Cano/Seagar combo really heating up, Cano been hitting for average all season, now the power is starting to kick in.

    Both are leans for the moment, throwing it out there

    You can get Minny as a home bow-wow around +110
    You can get Mariners at 5D at -109 as of 10:30am

    Twins hard to back in their first game back from a long, ugly road trip.

    I know, I know, finger is on the button, can't pull the trigger.
    Pino is like the girl with the curl, when's he's good, he can be lights out, when he's off, he'll stink out the building.

    Yeah, M's are going to be a play tonight.
    It's pretty much a pick 'em

    I like the royals a lot today . The royals have the best road record in June . Duffy has good stuff . His era this month is 1.71 lol .AAA pitcher throwing for twins . Danny Santana on DL so his numbers don't matter . If Duffy somehow got into trouble the royals still have a great bullpen . I really can't find any reason to NOT take KC today .

    This. How anyone can bet against Duffy is beyond me. Guy is the best left handed pitcher in the American League other than Scott Kazmir.

    I can't see betting against Duffy. Dude has been dealing and against some tough lineups -- LAD @DET @CWS NYY @STL in his last 5 starts.

    Chris Sale throws 100 mph with his left hand.

    LHP's in the AL I would start before Duffy this season

    Sale
    Kasmir
    Beuhrle
    Lester
    Price

    Duffy isn't even a Top 30 pitcher in the American League. He ranks exactly 30th in the AL in FIP at 3.86, which is more than a full run higher than his 2.69 ERA, and he has been helped immensely by an insanely low .217 BABIP.

    Duffy has allowed the second lowest BABIP in the AL behind Chris Young of Seattle, so look for both to spiral downward soon.

    Again, where have you been the last 2 to 3 months? Finished NBA Playoffs +22 units and am +27 units in MLB since being -30. And I posted nothing but facts about Duffy above, so what exactly make me a "clown".

    The "Unbelievable" stuff has him with less than 7 strikeouts and almost 4 walks per 9 innings, he has been living off of his unrealistic .217 BABIP that will stabilize eventually.

    Knock it off you two.
    Duffy does has good stuff, but Bear is overrating him a bit in my opinion.
    We all do that, I overrated Cingrani, so I know where he's coming from, Duffy has the potential to be a top flight LHP, he's not there yet.

    I know I have no clue.

    I'm a waste of space, and I only come here to pass time because I suck so much at life.

    I apologize for taking up space and breathing air. If there was some button I could press that would make it to where I never was born or existed, I am 100 percent sure I would press that button.
