Game Thread: Twins @ Yankees, 4/24/18 @ 5:35pm CST

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Is Sanchez a fantastic pitch framer or is this ump awful?

ump went from very good to 100% Yankee lover

[notoriousgod71]

 

LoMo got on base via an error in Puerto Rico. Twins scorer making the call. Guess what, the Twins appealed. The league upheld the call, though.

 

IMO the scorers are pretty consistent league-wide. I'd prefer more errors be called, but it's not how it goes.

 

The definition of "ordinary effort" has clearly been updated to accommodate millenials.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

All this talk about the umpiring as if we haven’t been outscored 19-2 in 14 innings this series. Our ace couldn’t even get an out in the 5th, folks

nothing about Berrios bothered me tonight

[Blake]

Tonight, I really miss Gardy. He'd have been all over that home plate ump and ejected by now. 

[Mill1634]

Bats really need to get going. Yes, our pitching has been pretty bad, but the hitting hasn't been great either. Especially with RISP

The Yankees are tough enough without the umps playing favorites.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Thanks for the fantasy help, Twins pitchers. 

 

Guess I don't need to be tuning into watch this *hitshow the next two nights. However, beating the Reds doesn't even seem like a sure thing at this point

Which team is even the Reds and which team the Twins? Not even sure anymore

[Aggies7]

Wha? Dude was in trouble from 2nd inning on. 2 homers. 93 pitches in 4 innings. Yes the defense didn’t help but I hope to god you expect more than that out of the statf ace

If you get just two hits in five innings don't expect to be in the game against this club in this stadium.

 

We are going to need to score runs in order to have a chance

And we can thank shrek out in right field for our one measly run

[notoriousgod71]

Dick and Roy ready with the excuses.

He is 23 years old, he got zero breaks tonight.

 

Yeah he showed some frustration. Hard not to.

 

Two hard hit balls. All night.

[Blake]

Molitor needs to get ejected. Something to wake this team up.

I’m not trying to rag on him because I think he’s great but I find it hard to clear him of fault for this debacle

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

That's your opinion, and that's fair. I just disagree.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

 

Despite all this, I still feel like we're in this one.

 

 

 

 

* I will show myself out

[notoriousgod71]

God dammit, Dick, not one single person other than Terry thought Hicks for Murphy was extremely lopsided in the Twins favor.

[Aggies7]

Technically yes, we are still on the playing field. Not sure about much else.

 

Pressly the only one who’s been immune from this stink

[Aggies7]

God dammit, Dick, not one single person other than Terry thought Hicks for Murphy was extremely lopsided in the Twins favor.

I dunno, last night someone said Hicks was expendable because of our abundance of OF talent. Ignore the platoon of lamarre and grossman

[Danchat]

Pressly =  :shoot:

 

The chances of Pressly maintaining his brilliance aren't that high, but perhaps we should give him the closer role if Rodney keeps struggling? Dave might have been right about this.

"Most people" = Terry, Rob, Dick and Bert!

[Darius]

Sano and Rosario really need to get going, here.

[Vanimal46]

He is 23 years old, he got zero breaks tonight.

 

Yeah he showed some frustration. Hard not to.

 

Two hard hit balls. All night.

He's got a little ways to go, but like you I'm not concerned by his outing tonight. He doesn't have the ego, mojo, whatever you want to call it to walk into Yankee Stadium and dominate. By the end of the season I'm willing to bet he'll have the swagger to do so.

[Aggies7]

Dozier might only have one more crack at it unless we get a big rally

 

 

 

Lol

[Danchat]

 

God dammit, Dick, not one single person other than Terry thought Hicks for Murphy was extremely lopsided in the Twins favor.

I remember most people thinking the trade was fairly balanced at the time. 

[Vanimal46]

God dammit, Dick, not one single person other than Terry thought Hicks for Murphy was extremely lopsided in the Twins favor.

He didn't actually say that did he?

[drock2190]

Weak little grounders and popups. 

 

Rinse and repeat.

[notoriousgod71]

Someone that can stomach listening to these two should just compile a list of stupid **** they say.

[Aggies7]

It’s hard for a big fat lump like CC to not break a sweat, even if April. But by golly he’s as dry as the desert tonight
