Game Thread: Twins vs Yankees 7/23/19 7:10 CDT

You wouldn't trade the Yankee pen for the Twins pen???

 

I would trade the Twins pen for the Yankees pen. And I fully believe we need additions to the pen and am eager to see whatever is coming. 

 

But, we are losing our minds right now over the Twins pen tonight, while the Yankees pen is doing the same thing. 

 

It's Baseball. The Yankees offense gets some credit? Or is that not a consideration. 

 

 

[DiscGolfer]

OMG this game

[Danchat]

Bases loaded again... but with the way things have gone this year with the bases loaded, I can only expect defeat.

[SwainZag]

This game is insane.  Regardless of what happens here, insanity.

[h2oface]

How about a hero grand salami here, Maximum Kepler!

[TribeAZ13]

 

I think you are trolling now.... 

Especially in a 2 homer game.

hehe, i am a bit.. Miguel has tortured us in years past...if he ever puts it all together and stays healthy, man...

[PseudoSABR]

 

4.91 ERA. 1.42 WHIP. 94-95 on a good night.

 

He's just a guy. He'll get some outs. He's not even MLB average.

Danchat had a pretty good rebuttal just above. We'll see.  He could just be a guy, but at least he's a guy who's doing well lately, or catching fire/genie/a-pickle in a bottle.

Oh man, oh man, oh man.

Has the Yankees bullpen stunk for the majority of the year?

[Blake]

Wow, I don't have to be able to read lips to get the gist of what the Yankee pitcher said.

If Kepler gets a bases clearing walk off here I don't want anything less than a statue of him erected on Target Field Plaza by tomorrow

[DiscGolfer]

I said it earlier, the Yankee guys pounded everything in the strike zone when they needed to.  Count didn't matter.  Gotta give them some credit.

Since he was converted to a reliever he near instantly gained 2-3 MPH on his fastball and he hadn’t given up a run until last outing.

[operation mindcrime]

I'll take a bases clearing double!

[Aggies7]

Wait, how can you make a pitching change if you have no mound visits left?

[Pius Jefferson]

Once again the Twins are face to face with their offensive achilles heel.

Has the Twins?

 

 

[Aggies7]

I’ll tell ya, ol blue has stunk for both sides late tonight

[SwainZag]

14th pitcher of the game. lol.

[MVP Nick Punto]

I am sweating bullets.

[TribeAZ13]

kepler is an amazing player

[DiscGolfer]

I feel like we'er seeing the same scenario play out every inning, or I just might be delirious  

[Aggies7]

Has the Twins?

Not so much recently, I mean before this homestand

[PseudoSABR]

Where to plot this game on the life of us all? I don't even know.

[Aggies7]

Oh my god that was a strike

[sampleSizeOfOne]

"They are inviting us to defeat them! We should oblige!"

We need upgrades, but I don’t think people realize that every team has a bullpen made up of guys near identically frustrating as the guys in the Twins pen.

[MNT1996]

I've never seen a more inconsistent ump
