Also, sorry about your dog.

 

Because Wes is a player's coach.

Stop it! I'm just not over the whole Old Yeller thing yet.

Alright, I gotta step away, but right here is where I want to see that playing to win and not playing to not lose thing. Don't act like you just need to protect a one-run lead, because we know that's not getting the job done. Put pressure on the Yankees.

[USAFChief]

 

I'm hoping for 2+ outs from Thorpe.

wish granted.

[Aggies7]

So we’ve had:

 

4 homers

2 inning ending DPs

And a triple play

 

All of that should equate to a comfortable win

[Mill1634]

 

Timely.

 

Risk another inning from Thorpe?

 

He fooled nobody that inning.

I don't think so. There is no saying that we lead either of the other two games this series. Might as well use our weapons while we have the lead. However, if we are going to throw him, might as well let him throw the 7th and the 8th, and then get him back on the Rochester shuttle.

The Twins front office admitted they tried to build an 80-85 win team this year, but then April and May happened

hey better than our front office openly telling us they wont spend and that Lindor will not be resigned, along with allowing brantley to walk, etc....  its so frustrating

[Bandit34]

Can you imagine Blake Parker against the Yankees! Titanic anyone?

[Riverbrian]

 

Is there any doubt that the WS is Yankees/Dodgers?

 

Yes

[Whammy]

Does the Yankees bullpen have 27k/9 for the season?

[VATwinsFan]

So, Parker in the 7th and Rogers for 8 + 9? 

 

Can go Harper-Parker-Rogers if you only want to use Rogers for one inning I suppose.

 

Option 2.

[a-wan]

Oh thank god, another HR.

[Aggies7]

F*ing YUGE

[Mill1634]

GARVER GONE!!!!!!

 

 

THANK. YOU. 

[MVP Nick Punto]

Mmm, that Sauce.

[Nine of twelve]

KaPow!

[USAFChief]

Hey, someone else gives up an 0-2 HR on a hanger!

[Riverbrian]

GARVER!!!

GARVER!!!

[Diesel]

Garver is doing his best to outpace Gary Sanchez

[DocBauer]

Are you kidding me??!!

[TribeAZ13]

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

yeah that was even more brutal

[TribeAZ13]

That Garver guy can hit kinda, eh

[DocBauer]

2019 MVP...Rosario, err, Polanco, err, Kepler, err

[DiscGolfer]

Love these homers but can we get some with runners on please

[VATwinsFan]

This is turning into one of those games for the ages.

[TribeAZ13]
