Angels are definitely better than their record suggests

That’s what I said last night. Can’t understand their mediocre record

If the homestand has shown me anything its that a couple of shutdown relief pitchers are something the Twins desperately need before the trade deadline

The story of his career.

Spot on, always been a nibbler and could cough up any lead at any time. And they got him as their #2, what a joke. Bring up Stewart

Good god. It’s almost as if I stepped into a time machine and back to 2015.

 

Gibson, over his prior three starts, threw 18 innings and struck out 22 hitters. He gave up four runs.

Are you saying the Twins are still winning?

I thought they were down by 14 runs based on Gibson's performance.

 

It's probably going to take Gibson a while longer to win some folks over, as mediocre as he was for so long. He was considerably better the third time through the order than he was the second time last year, so hopefully this was just a one-off.

 

And now that we've signed Kimbrel to anchor the bullpen, maybe Rocco will be a little more aggressive with middle relief for Gibson next time he's looking ragged in the 6th. 

 

Wait, we still haven't signed Kimbrel?

Gibson has been good for something like 300-350 innings now. I’m not sure how much time people need.

 

And the dude is recovering from e.Coli and lost 20 lbs, probably all of which was muscle.

 

He deserves a little slack, especially when it comes to tiring in later innings. The guy has every friggin’ reason to wear down during a game.

Gibson is the same as he always has been , rare flashes of brilliance that keeps us all hoping, he’ll never be anything more, would have shown up by now
