Game Thread: Twins @ Rays 4/22 @ 12:10 PM CT

I think it's more of an indictment of Rodney that Molitor is going with Reed for another inning to face the middle of the order, especially since it's a clean start to the 9th.

[Aggies7]

Cj cron has murdered us this series. Although a lot of other people have, too

[Puckett34]

Or not

[USAFChief]

[VATwinsFan]

The series in New York should be a real clambake.

[BoofBonser]

I hope that's the worst series we play this season... 

[Vanimal46]

It can only go up from here.

[Aggies7]

Wow great series for all the former twins. Horrendous for the current ones. I’m concerned we aren’t as good as I thought.

[Riverbrian]

And we'll see ya Tomorrow Night. 

 

 

[Danchat]

Yuck. Twins pitching got ran over by mediocre batters and our offense was always a step behind. 4 games on the road against the Yankees after this awful series is not good...

[Ultima Ratio]

Paging Rick Anderson <<<muttering>>>

[LaBombo]

Nothing like getting swept by a crappy team in ugly uniforms in an indoor stadium in a state where only outdoor baseball should be legal. 

 

<Sigh>.  At least we can look forward to a four game series with the Yankees.

Haha, good joke

I'm concerned that I missed out on the part of the season where we thought we were good.

It was before all the postponements.

[h2oface]

Swept by Tampa Bay. So much for Reed being the guy. Damn.

[LaBombo]

That would explain it. I was busy stockpiling canned food and firewood.

[slash129]

Should be 8-11 when the Reds roll into town.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Embarrassing. There were a hundred embarrassing things, big and small, throughout this series.

[Aggies7]

Doesn’t appear there was much quality anything all series. At bats, managerial moves, relief outings. Came back twice late which is commendable, but that’s about it. Lots of holes

[twinsnorth49]

It's April, right?

 

 

I sure hope so.

[Craig Arko]

It's April, right?

I sure hope so.

It is.

This weekend takes me back to that series we were swept at Tropicana in four games right in the middle of a pennant race.  This was bad, but THAT was a whole lot worse

[howeda7]

I've had enough of Taylor Rogers and Grossman. They both offer nothing that we can't upgrade at AAA or off the street. Rogers needs to go down and learn to pitch a clean inning and Robbie needs to go period.

Yeah, and it's too bad, because Rogers is really good against lefties.

However, he's awful against righties, and yet Molitor just keeps putting him out there again, and again, and again against righties.

Blunt, concise and yet perfect

[Mike Sixel]

I really thought the twins would win in extra innings today. Sigh

[VATwinsFan]

Now watch them take 3 of 4 in NY.

[Mr. Brooks]

While I didn't expect to be swept by the Ray's, I had this team pegged as a hair over .500 club. So, this is about where I expected them to be after 16 games.
