Welp. Should have taken him out. Like I said, can't mess around with this lineup. Way too many baserunners.

[Aggies7]

Lynn now sporting a not at all disappointing 7.52 ERA.

 

What a dud

[USAFChief]

RBI are important. 2 out RBI always seem to determine ball games.

[Aggies7]

RBI are important. 2 out RBI always seem to determine ball games.

And we seem to always be bad at those

[Riverbrian]

That was the best Bremergasm ever.

Still better then Darvish or Cobb.

 

Contract wise at least...

Runs are important too, right? You have to get guys on base to have the chance to get RBIs.

Yeah. At least we only have to watch this **** for one year, not 5

Great.

That didn’t go well for us last inning

[Mill1634]

What the heck were the right  left and center fielder doing right there. 

[Mill1634]

Skaggs is a career 7.8 K/9 pitcher. He has 6 through 3.1 innings tonight. Yikes.

I wasn't arguing against RBIs, but if you can't get baserunners on, then the only way you'll be able to get RBIs is with solo HRs (aka the Dozier method).

[Aggies7]

Buxton seems to be limping

[Mill1634]

Man, give me LaMarre hitting against a lefty right now over the 80% Buxton. Buxton wasn't hitting pre-injury, what made anyone think he would get hot post injury?

[Riverbrian]

We could make the easy catch but let's see if the shortstop can make an amazing one instead.

Surely they both knew we wouldn’t do squat with a leadoff runner anyway

[drock2190]

Good to see Kinsler turn the clock back this series

[Riverbrian]

We are going to win this game... 

 

And it will be Joe Mauer who makes it happen. 

[Mill1634]

What a play by Mauer. Not many 1b make that play.

[Aggies7]

What has happened more often, Mauer saving a run or Mauer grounding out to second?

[Mill1634]

Dick and Torii are just as bad as the fans at overreacting about lazy fly balls acting like theyre crushed.

[Aggies7]

Boz Skaggs has us on the lowdown list tonight.

[Aggies7]

Man that missed opportunity in the 2nd seems to have completely put the offense to sleep

[Mill1634]

Lynn starting his 3rd time through the order. Me thinks monitor needs to get Trevor up and ready.

[Aggies7]

Even more impressive than his era, Lynn’s whip is now at a solid 1.99

below the Mendoza line!

Unfortunately some of these starters are going to have to suck it up and give innings. Lynn is at 75 pitches. Our already shaky bullpen is going to decimated by mid June. Can’t keep asking 4+ innings from them every single night.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Not getting a fuzzy feeling about this one

[Aggies7]

No matter the weather, Lynn always looks like he just exited a sauna
