Did #5 have like a moral, or something?

Perhaps aplicable to game threads?

See, i'm trying to think, it just takes a while.

Does Target field also face somewhat east-erly?

Oh i got it... We are still searching for coasters.

 

Yes... Exactly!

 

The Twins have been leaving rings on our coffee table. 

[USAFChief]

I'd post, but I'm at work, so I'm not able.

[DiscGolfer]

Wow, can we see a strike, please

[HitInAPinch]

uh oh, here comes Allen. 

 

GET YOUR HELMUTS ON !!

Another Not Ready For Primetime Player

Berrios is working his way back to Triple A

 

 

[Twinsbar107]

Well this was fun

[Aggies7]

Holy hell Berrios is ba-rutal

[Thrylos]

Looks the same bug that bit Buxton bit Berrios, but I just hope that when they send him down either Meyer or Gibson returns.  Hope no Milone or God forbid Albers, but you never know.

 

The kid needs to go down though big time.

The twins have now given up 57 runs in the first inning against Detroit this year.

 

No idea if that's true but it wouldn't shock me. Terrible

[USAFChief]

What's the point of taking him out now?

 

Let him pitch another couple innings and try to leave on something of a positive note.  If it doesn't work, it's not like he could leave on a more negative note.

[DiscGolfer]

It's puzzling how he can be so dominant in the minors and now struggle so much now, not expecting to see cy young performances every outing but would like to see some better command than that 

[Aggies7]

Man. The tigers are treating us like we treated them for so many years in the early 2000s.

[HitInAPinch]

from what I've seen, Berrios is overthrowing.  His breaking pitches aren't much different from his fastball.

 

 

[mickeymental]

remember that four-game winning streak? that was awesome.

Lets not be too hasty

 

Those two outs he got were nice. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I'm more interesting in hearing what happened with Berrios than throwing tomatoes at him.  

 

Was he wild? Maybe Centeno could catch him? How do the Twins prepare these guys for these starts? Reminds me of the May start a couple years ago.

 

Berrios is young but it's not like he's 17. I'm not in a rush to get back around to Hughes and Nolasco.

good info, thanks

Smoke and mirrors

[Aggies7]

Lolll

[sampleSizeOfOne]

He just wants them to feel they are doing well...

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

when the leadoff hitter gets two RBI in the first inning 

[DiscGolfer]

I'm guessing as soon as Gibson is ready Berrios goes down

This way we can let Pat Dean experience some of the same frustration. 

 

 

[SirLoin]

So, who wants to start the "Berrios is a Bust" thread?

[Aggies7]

Embarrassing.

[Twinsbar107]

Remember how we used to be ecstatic about runs.... feel that way about outs this inning. Or should I say out once/if we get it

[Old Twins Cap]

So we give up a touchdown in the first quarter.  Run back the kick-off.

[DiscGolfer]

 

Embarrassing.

Which part?  be more specific please

[kydoty]

So we give up a touchdown in the first quarter.  Run back the kick-off.

And they went for two right away. Classy.
