Buxton "the machine"

 

Love it!

[twinssporto]

Did we get rid of Butera because he couldn't hit?  I can't remember.

It's always about the leads!

Not suspecting anything was amiss as he entered the break room, Kintzler found out the hard way that the Twins are already planning on shopping the free agent market for his replacement in the offseason...

Awesome!  Only sales people would appreciate that one!  

 

ABC!  Always Be Closing!

In defense of the former front office regime, they had to judge Butera as a hitter without seeing him hit against the Twins.

Twins lead! Futility record on hold! Get your Grossman on!

Don't ruin this for me, Molly.

We're winning, right?

Yeah. Crushing a Gibson slider instead of blocking it in the dirt is literally a million dollar change of scenery for SoS.

 

Good luck, Mr. Falvey, you're going to need it.

All right managers and coaches, listen up!

 

First place in the AL Central gets you a trip to the postseason.

 

Second place? A set of steak knives.

 

Third, fourth, fifth place...

[LaBombo]

Yes, unless you meant the battle to be ten behind the second worst team in baseball in the loss column.

It seemed like a long shot, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask.

If this was the Terry Ryan-Rob Antony regime, I'd be afraid the Twins would go into this offseason building the bullpen around Kintzler, because Saves, and in spite of the fact Kintzler looks not much more effective than Jepsen right now.

Bases loaded. Kintzler pretending not to notice a certain canine eying him patiently but hungrily.

Uh-oh... are they gonna blow this one?

[Platoon]

................ after a stunning 5 game winning streak turns around to their season, the MN Twins announced Monday afternoon that they have given Paul Molitor a 3 year extension. Molitor called for patience amongst the faithful, saying "I think 2018 is really going to be our year" New GM Rob Antony was quoted as saying the bull pen would be a top priority in the off season!

Not to nitpick, but wouldn't the game have to count for something in the first place for that to even be possible?

What a very Twinsian way for the Royals to lose.

 

Oh well, still counts. Twins sweep the Royals in season finales!

[GCTF]

Eat it for one more night record of blinding ineptitude.

[twinssporto]

The great turnaround has begun!
