If I was Molitor I would ban shaving.

Yeah, cuz waxing would be so much more convenient.

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

That's exactly how you learn to juggle. Keep doing it. 

Ooookay.

[Circus Boy]

One out. Bases juiced. More runs, please.

If ever there was a time to strike out intentionnally - or squeeze! - it would be now with Suzuki up.

[James]

If I was Molitor I would ban shaving.

If I were Molitor, I'd ban striking out. Seems more effective.

[Riverbrian]

 

Let us count the ways:

 

- Bad starters

- Disastrous relievers

- Almost zero clutch hitting

- Dozier forgot how to hit

- Rosario looks stupid at the plate

- Sano not looking scary anymore, except when he's playing right field

- Arcia looks as dumb as Rosario at the plate

- Suzuki's bat has a hole in it

- Murphy's bat... ditto

- Dicey gloves in the outfield

- Catchers can't throw out guys stealing

- Our own guys don't steal bases

 

On the plus side:

- Mauer's looking a lot better

- Nunez is hitting better than I've ever seen him

- Park is looking like a very good all around player

- Santana looks better, but his bat cooled off after the hammy pull

[James]

Good inning, gentleman.

[Riverbrian]

 

Ooookay.

 

You know... They'll get better at giving MRI's.

 

because you are doing it again.

 

Practice makes...

 

It's your funny bone... you may have missed the funny part.

Detroit got off easy in that inning!

[Foghorn Leghorn]

Kinda nice having a catcher who get an RBI.

[diehardtwinsfan]

common Ricky, let's get an out here and get QS.

[stringer bell]

That third out is elusive for Ricky.

[diehardtwinsfan]

Castellanos .419 against RHP and .656 against the Twins... let's get some regression to the mean.

[diehardtwinsfan]

correction... .625 against the Twins.

[Riverbrian]

 

Castellanos .419 against RHP and .656 against the Twins... let's get some regression to the mean.

 

Or... Maybe the Twins could just get "Mean".

 

[GCTF]

Nolasco'd

[Twinsbar107]

Sure

[James]

Dislike.

[Aggies7]

Gotta laugh.

[diehardtwinsfan]

****

[Foghorn Leghorn]

Please get rid of this staff. Molitor Allen Brunansky

all gotta go.

This is pathetic

[jimbo92107]

Once again, Nolasco right now is the team's best starter. 

 

Later, guys.

[hybridbear]

The fact that Ricky Nolasco is now the best starter on the staff is deeply troubling.

 

He certainly wasn't that good today...

[Aggies7]

I wish I had literally anything else to do instead of watching this.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Mrs. Lincoln informs me that Nolsaco otherwise had a pretty good outing.

[glunn]

It's getting harder and harder for me to even care any more. I am almost ready to stop watching and just hope for a high draft pick.

[Riverbrian]

This clearly means that the Twins will have to score at least another run today. 

[diehardtwinsfan]

 

I wish I had literally anything else to do instead of watching this.

 

I went for a run today.. got bit by a dog.  And now I get here just in time for that.

[Foghorn Leghorn]

 

Once again, Nolasco right now is the team's best starter. 

 

Later, guys.

Yep, this is what Terry Ryan molded the rotation into.

How people still support Ryan or Molitor anymore is honestly baffling.

Wanna do my accounting homework?
