We are all due for a Sano bomb, yes?

[mrtwinsfan]

Bremer calling it ?????????????

[Cap'n Piranha]

 

Yes, I do - particularly May & Harper. Heck, I would love to see Littell get these situations to see if the Twins can develop another bullpen arm.

 

Trevor May in June has a 5.58 FIP, and is walking 5.5 batters per nine, while striking out less than 8, and only inducing 12% soft contact.

 

Harper in June has a 5.48 FIP, and is only inducing 10% soft contact.

In other words, our bullpen is beyond trash (outside of Rogers)

I don't know about beyond trash, but there are precious few good options.

 

One, to be exact.

I gave you a like, but I really dislike this.

What are the odds we get 9 innings in?

Still are.

[FLTwinsGuy]

Polanco tried to end the game and looked foolish

[diehardtwinsfan]

 

Still are.

 

Sano needs to get sent down... hoping Marwin comes back soon. 

[diehardtwinsfan]

 

I'd personally fly to Target Field and punch Baldelli in the face if Littell was the choice.

 

So... does this still stand one inning later?

[Mill1634]

Littell for however long this game goes, and if it happens to go 3+ he gets sent out after this game?

[70charger]

lulz

Jorge batting .286/.311/.408 in June.

[Mill1634]

I know this may come back to bite me in the butt in the short term, but Littell is going to be a late inning arm within the next 2 years. 

[FLTwinsGuy]

Littell wants to make it interesting after 2 quick outs

[SpicyGarvSauce]

Wants to fit in with the rest of the bullpen arms, sans Rogers.

[VATwinsFan]

Boxberger was DFA'd a day or two ago. Could always add him to the collection at Rochester to see what he does.

So yesterday I went to see a psychic. The lady was...obese, to say the least.

 

That's right. 

 

She was a four chin teller.

[Jham]

Crazy the amount of disdain for this pen and equal amount of appreciation for their efforts holding it together with no help from the FO.

That one would be Zachary "Shut Down" Littell, yes?

[operation mindcrime]

YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[FLTwinsGuy]

Okay, can we end this game now? Bullpen is making me nervous

[mrtwinsfan]

littell  = got a break, now end it SOMEONE

[VATwinsFan]

The BP walking the tightrope pretty well today.

 

But enough already.

No.

More escapes than Houdini right now.  Someone in a red jersey end this now!!

Littell beat big if Littell is smart.

 

First with the head and then with the heart.

 

That is how it goes, right?

[MVP Nick Punto]

No.

Hmm, I think you're just saying that to be contrarian
