Fire the analytical dude that said to walk Doze to pitch to The Stick

 

But Doze makes up for it with wishful thinking on that stumble home...yikes

 

Good Inning...bad ending

I don't understand why you'd intentionally walk a guy who's gone 0 for 3 and is bad in RISP situations for a guy who's having a great year and is an exceptional RISP hitter. The Rays are paying for their bad decision.

[mrmpls]

Thank You rays for walking Dozier, to get ESCO - !!!!

[adorduan]

Let's hope Grossman's iffy defense doesn't come back to haunt us the rest of the game.

Dozier hardly delivers when RISP. That's silly to walk him.

I can't wait for Dozier gone.

Strike Strike nibble nibble nibble...overthrow

[yarnivek1972]

Need the Duke to man up here.

[tvagle]

[jun]

Berrios is still inconsistent at times.

[yarnivek1972]

That tag looked good.

[yarnivek1972]

Probably was out, but I don’t think there is enough to overturn it.

[tvagle]

No way they reverse that...inconclusive will be the call

Agree

[tvagle]

Can't believe they'd run on Robby's Rocket Arm

[Danchat]

Classic Twins pitching - immediately give up the lead the half inning after you get it.

[yarnivek1972]

Can the Twins trade Duke yesterday?

[tvagle]

Shaping up to be a little FREe Saturday baseball...gotta get Bauers here...he looks like a long term stick

[tvagle]

Hasn't Matt Duffy got the memo...line drive base hits are no longer "in"

[tvagle]

OMG...Bert thinks he slipped...nope that's Robby the Gun 

[yarnivek1972]

That’s one run Grossman allowed that Kepler/Cave staying in likely would have prevented.

[drock2190]

Rays score two runs off Ben Revere in right field.

[Danchat]

While Grossman's pinch-hitting worked very well, his defensive abilities have cost the Twins big time. He's simply too much of a liability defensively - even Granite could have probably thrown further than that.

[yarnivek1972]

So, now we’re going to burn Pressly down by 3.

Most little league players probably could've thrown further than that.

[Aggies7]

Probably the worst throw I’ve ever seen from a major leaguer. Awful. Good to take duke out now. Makes sense

[Aggies7]

Yeah, because a 4-2 game is that ugly.

Shut it

[tvagle]

RG better hit a 3 run bomb in the 9th to make up for defensive deficiencies

 

Why not put a-Stud in RF to protect the lead...at least they might not know if he could make that throw

[Aggies7]

Let's hope Grossman's iffy defense doesn't come back to haunt us the rest of the game.

Prophetic
