Game Thread: Twins @ Orioles, 4/1/18 @ 12:05pm CDT

I’m a big fan of pitchers changing their numbers to match their ERA+.

Does that mean Berrios is going to have to add a 0 on to his jersey number?

[Blake]

 

No. Now if that were Molson, yes.

TwinsNorth claims to be from Canada. But, how do we know he's not actually from Twin Falls? Or, shudder, Wisconsin?

Dammit! Brock, get me more Likes! I was gonna hand you one. (I realize, you can manufacture all the ones you want.)

[Squirrel]

I remember arguments that the Twins should take Gausman instead of Buxton. A cringeworthy thought now.

Just goes to show you ... well, something.

 

Just can never know, I guess. Such a lottery!

[Blake]

Along with Gibson and Odorizzi.

[Mill1634]

How does Pedro Alveraz still have a spot in the MLB?

[Nine of twelve]

Sano - well-played just like he used to be a shortstop.

[Jax]

If we get pitching like this all year we'll be in good shape

[Blake]

 

Oh ffs ... Brock, do something to up Chief’s likeability.

Oh, wait ...

[Squirrel]

I likewise am tapped out on Likes. Guess I'm going to chew tobacco from here on out.

You have the same likeability problems Chief does.

[ashbury]

Oh ffs ... Brock, do something to up Chief’s likeability.

 

Oh, wait ...

He's an admin, not a miracle worker.

[jimbo92107]

57 pitches after 6 innings of shutout pitching. Ho-Zay!!

[snepp]

Don't blink, you'll miss a Berrios inning.

[ashbury]

Six innings of shutout ball from the starters? Ya think???

[twinsnorth49]

 

Deteriorate? Elevate is the correct term.

[snepp]

I'm walking away, Morrison HR incoming.

[Blake]

CBU stand-in update:

 

Mr. Berrios has faced one batter over the minimum through 6 innings.

 

This has been a public service announcement brought to you by not CBU.

[ashbury]

You have the same likeability problems Chief does.

I will just have to let you wonder whether that remark deserves a Like or not, then.

[Mill1634]

So, Grossman in left tomorrow with Rosario DHing?

[Squirrel]

I will just have to let you wonder whether that remark deserves a Like or not, then.

You on the other hand will not be wondering ...

[Brock Beauchamp]

Dammit! Brock, get me more Likes! I was gonna hand you one. (I realize, you can manufacture all the ones you want.)

Okay, fine. Someone shoot me a PM as a reminder and I’ll do it when I get home.

[jkcarew]

Sano stays on pace to finish the year without a BABiP.

[ashbury]

Mancini ran a long long time, but still wasn't even very close to the foul line for that fly. Other teams have their Grossmen too, it seems.

[sswen]

Are the Twins this good or are the Orioles this bad?

[Blake]

 

Are the Twins this good or are the Orioles this bad?

Yes.

[Jax]

Yes.

Yes

[ashbury]

Okay, fine. Someone shoot me a PM as a reminder and I’ll do it when I get home.

Consider it shot.

[Rosterman]

Both.

 

Berrios, less than 10 pitches average an inning, what gives?

 

Show Me The Power!

 

[Vanimal46]

Yeah... But the wait time to get in is 6 months!
