Sweet, may setting up for the homer.....

[Tom Froemming]

Ay ay ay.

[Aggies7]

Lead off walk. Don’t do this to me today

[jud6312]

Don't worry guys, Trevor's out here doing Trevor things.

[h2oface]

May and Harper. Not a pair to go with. What happened to the pitching guru? Is he taking long naps?

[Aggies7]

Boy oh boy oh boy oh boy

[mickeymental]

 

The finger in the dyke holds....still think the Twins are going to need more runs to win this one.

in the old days they called that a dutch boy.

[FLTwinsGuy]

This is almost comical at this point

[bighat]

Please Trevor, not today buddy. Not today. If the Twins ever needed a scoreless inning, it's right now man.

[jud6312]

Trevor May might be the second best bullpen arm this team has. Let that sink in.

[Jham]

Controversial take: Trevor May has never been good. *there was a 2 month stretch in summer 2017 where he was actually good.

[tvagle]

Did you see that throw from Kepler?

 

Proves my earlier posted theory...Kepler throws worm burners from CF but has a cannon from RF

[Aggies7]

Once the offense slowed down (yes they have 5 runs today but have missed so many chances for weeks), it was only a matter of time before the pitching did us in

[glunn]

We need a new reliever after this batter.

He's never been that. Parker is better and maybe Harper as well. May is a fringe bullpen guy on most MLB teams and should be used as such. Unfortunately the Twins treat this 30 year-old with a 4.69 career ERA like he's got All-Star potential. Looks like this lead will be blown unfortunately.

 

Bring on the Yankees.

[John Kelsey]

Twins have left 24 men on base through six innings. 

[Aggies7]

98 MPH cheese

That's even more terrifying.

[MNT1996]

Nice flop

[FLTwinsGuy]

Lol cant make it up...

[jud6312]

Why do I subject myself to this on a regular basis?

[Aggies7]

Another free base. Comical

[h2oface]

Castro the golve man.

 

The recent homers have come off the curve. He can't control it. Why use it? Because Trevor says, in his interviews, he likes his stuff..... 

[jud6312]

I'm to the point where I'd like to see Berrios tweeting about the Twins only getting cash for DJ Heybeef.

[MNT1996]

I bet the Yankees are shaking in their boots boarding the plane for MN

[jud6312]

 

Castro the golve man.

Yeah, but had it bounced higher he would've framed the crap out of it.

[ashbury]

Nice flop

My thought too. Give him the charging call he wants, Blue, but don't give him any extra leeway on balls and strikes.

[bighat]

Luckily for this lifelong Twins fan, I've got some things to do that will take me away from the game/Internet for the rest of the day. Hope the Twins somehow pull this one off, can't say I feel too good about it. Hang in there everyone.

[Aggies7]

Wow if not for that wild pitch that would have been unreal

[FLTwinsGuy]

Hell of a job by may to only give up 1..Probably shouldnt have even given up that
