Dobnak to start tomorrow in Boston. I'll set the over under at 3 innings. If he can go four it gives them a chance.

We won't leave our secret weapon in Grand Forks.

Without Rudolph as our OC, I think this time we will attempt a forward pass.

Amen! Attack mentality all afternoon in Fargo.

Good win over a team that only tries against the Twins. Six of seven on the road against teams you should beat. Now try to win a series in Beantown.

Nice to have a reliable vet that takes the ball and doesn't walk people. Being able to throw his junk for strikes is what impresses me the most about him.

I love NDSU-UND week! Cheers!

Or got arrested at a Redhawks game....

Completely agree. With a low strikeout guy and decent speed you have to send the runner. Its 1st and 3rd zero outs if he goes.

Would you have sent Wade on the 3-2 pitch???

Lamonte Wade Jr pinch hits. Shows the confidence they have in Castro hitting.......and he walks......

They definitely need to switch up the scheduling. Like you said 19 times against the Detroits and the KCs......yuck. I'd be for every team playing all the NL and AL teams at least one series a year.

Funny thing is that the Twins have a good, but not great record against the AL Central with how poor those bottom three teams are. Look at Houston's record against the AL Central. Completely agree it's a weak division, but they've played their division much better for whatever reason.

Five and a half games up.....magic number is now 21. Lots of reasons to be optimistic in Minnesota. Getting some guys back and expanded roster is huge. Having Austidillo means you can DH Garver to keep his bat in the lineup. Having extra arms around for our patented 5 inning starts.......nice.

Welcome to the big leagues Mr. Graterol. That fastball is such a weapon when he can throw it on the black. Just casually hits 100 mph.....slider needs a bit of work, but what 21 year old kid not named Liriano has a perfect slider? If he can get outs in the late innings down the stretch......

First pitch 100 mph.....

And here we go with Graterol.....

Okay Rocco, zero reason to screw around here. Dyson doesn't have it, get him out and get Duffy or Romo in there.

Just turned 21......high high ceiling.

Gibby to the IL with guy issues. Welcome to the no gallbladder club in the future if you aren't already a member Gibby!! No reason the starts he misses can't be bullpen games. Smeltz for two, Thorpe a couple, Dobnak, Littell. Just keep it close to the 6th.

Motzko: "Mariucci arena still the Mecca of college hockey."

I wonder if UNI head coach regrets letting the game go to OT when he had the ball at the end of the 4th with some time and a timeout. His team recovers that fumble at the 1 yard line in the 3rd OT and it's a moot point I guess. Didn't see any of the NDSU game, but sounds like they got another good one at QB.

Exactly. Why mess around and let it get that out of hand? This team is capable, but down 8-2 against Boyd is a tall mountain to climb.

Non football related but if Ketts has a serious knee injury does that hurt his chances of becoming a SEAL like he wants to be after college? God bless the kid for putting on the uniform and putting himself in harm's way for my university. Hope it isn't serious.

Depth......depth.... Lead off homer by Garver. 1 zip good guys.
