Next contestant, Mrs. Sybil Fawlty from Torquay. Specialist subject - the bleeding obvious---

 

Hildy- the latest candidate for the Pressly Overuse Award- needs a DL stint.  He's been brutal the past couple of weeks, and it's plain to see why.

He has been shaky darts to say the least

I was going to complain about Garver's spot in the lineup, but instead, I'll just be thankful he is in the lineup.  Baby steps.

Usually you can point to one or two things that cost a game...it’s hurtful when you can point out 5 routinely. Defense, base running, a bench of fields, ehire and Bobby w, a burned out reliever. Did I

Just sick of it.

 

Whether it's MoY, or Falvine, or both-- plainly, bloody obvious needs not being addressed, and issues only compounded, time after time after time.

 

Gee, Paul, anyone you'd like to have a look at from down in Roch?  "No, not really."

 

How about anyone but the gassed-out Hildy?

 

And while I'm at it, thanks, Jake, for allowing us to start burning the pen before the 5th was done.

24 starts. 8 of them 6 innings. None more.

 

2/3 of your starts by the Alleged "ace"(as dubbed in pre season) gas the bullpen.

 

Terrible. Just Terrible.

Twins' relievers this season seem to have incredible runs of dominance (April for Reed, Pressly, May-July for Hildy, Rodney?)  and then completely fall apart and look awful for a stretch of time (Pressly's May, Reed's June, Rodney's April, Hildy April and now). Unfortunately, we have a manager who is incapable of figuring out who is cold and when. 

 

Speaking of Reed, why wasn't he pitching in a close game? He'd be a better option than Hildy for the third straight day.

July 31

Aug 4

 

Only times Reed has pitched since called back up.

Drake has pitched once since being added.

And yet, Garver HAD TO pitch Monday night.

Who's turn next to be overused?
I'd guess Magill's since he had a rest.

Reed is in the Angry Beaver doghouse for being loudly upset over Duke trade

Pioneer Press says that's 11 walkoff losses

 

To answer an earlier question.

Thanks! That’s quite a bite, even for 60 losses.
