Game Thread Twins @ Tigers 6/8/19 3:10 PM CDT

[PDX Twin]

The Twins today really remind me of the toothless Twins of 2018 or 2016. Every guy who comes up you just know it's going to be an out.

[USAFChief]

In many ways, this road trip has been the Twins worst stretch of baseball all year.

 

Which isn't too bad, considering they're 5-3.

 

 

[Aggies7]

A three run game is not "non stressful."

I’m far less stressed than I was in the 9th last night

[DocBauer]

Howdy howdy howdy.

 

I sure hope our team wins today.

 

Too late for that?

[operation mindcrime]

The Yankees aren't doing us any favors today and neither did Gibson. I really want us to win this game! Hopefully we bat around the order next inning!

[USAFChief]

 

Howdy howdy howdy.

Too late for that?

Nope, now we have someone to blame if they don't!

[operation mindcrime]

I forgot to say our batter's haven't done us any favors either! Oops my bad!!!

[USAFChief]

Eades WHIP is 2.0, ERA is zero.

 

Prolly sustainable.

[DocBauer]

Nope, now we have someone to blame if they don't!

Story of my life! Lol

[Pius Jefferson]

Tigers have an over -100 scoring differential but they've been pretty competitive  against the Twins. 

[operation mindcrime]

Maybe we can take that momentum and turn it into something!

[Hornhead]

Hang up the phone.  Think we found our shutdown reliever!

[operation mindcrime]

CRUZ!!!!!!!!!!

[DocBauer]

I really like "80" on Eades.

 

If you stick kid, keep that number!

 

How has he looked? Just caught the last 2 puts of the 7th.

[Aggies7]

Momentum swing

[USAFChief]

Cruz.

 

As expected.

[DocBauer]

I'm going to take credit for that bomb....just because.

They feel a little off recently. Nice to have a 10 game lead to work through somethings.

 

[Aggies7]

Momentum swing

Or not

[DocBauer]

Hey, down to a 2 run deficit at least

The general feeling among the more entitled fans is that this is just the beginning of another losing season

[MNT1996]

Unfortunately they (unlike the Twins) have an actual shutdown closer

[twinsbaby]

Rocco needs to sit Sano, he is terrible on the both sides of the ball.

[TwinsCD]

Still holding out hope that the grease fire that is the Tigers bullpen will finally ignite in the 9th inning.

'Entitled' and 'fans' as it pertains to the Twins do not go together.  

[DocBauer]

Come on Magil! Your stuff is better than that!

[MNT1996]

Tigers BP > Twins BP

[Aggies7]

Magilla gorilla makes sure there won’t be any ninth inning drama. All started with an 0-2 count in the first batter too. Win the series tomorrow.

[TwinsCD]

What gives anyone the idea that Magill is a ML pitcher?

[DocBauer]

Oh well. Cant win them all. Someone please tell Brock not to PANIC!
