Pathetic part III Schoop!

[Jham]

I have a feeling things could get ugly here... this game, this season, this thread, this site. U G L Y and we ain't got no alibi...

[drock2190]

Did anyone think Schoop would get a clutch hit? 

 

 

[howeda7]

How do you even let Schoop hit there? .160 with RISP. Can we just DFA him already?

[Darius]

School comes through again.

 

Totally useless.

[Aggies7]

We need Byron and Nelson back, like ASAP.

[mrtwinsfan]

Twins hitters, keep missing VERY hitable pitches, loosen up them collars Boys

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Well, shucks.

 

 

I don’t know if we need to post a Batman gif for every batter, or what..

I would've rather seen Cave bat!

[Aggies7]

Wait til next year when they make the balls less juicy and see what happens to the offense

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

School ...

Totally useless.

I thought so, too

[MNT1996]

"There's not a second basemen in the league who can make that play like Schoop"

 

Great play, but I don't think that statement is true

[Danchat]

Yeah... I've avoided jumping on the Schoop hate bandwagon, but it's getting difficult not to now. I would think about replacing him with Nick Gordon once he's healthy, though we could wait until September for that...

Lindor is batting .186 with RISP. Indians should DFA him too

[LVTwinsfan]

There isn’t a shortstop in the league that could make that play

[TwinsCD]

No other shortstop in the game would make a play like that!!

 

That's how it goes, doesn't it Richard?

[Riverbrian]

I won't give up

Nice 8th Trevor May, Now c,mon BATS

[TwinsCD]

OK, I'm done asking nicely.  I'm gonna resort to begging.

 

Can we have some hits AND runs, pleeeeeeeease??

[howeda7]

Perhaps if Schoop was hitting .300/.874 overall instead of .253/.754 we'd be willing to overlook it.

Danny santana: .312 18hr .920 ops...

[LVTwinsfan]

The Twins knew they only had to win one game this series to hold onto first place, albeit a tie for first....mission accomplished

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Batman running out of ideas today

Do you think if we trade Gibson he’ll be a 20 game winner and win a Cy Young

[drock2190]

Last time he was good was 2014. BABIP is near .400. Only a matter of time before he turns into a pumpkin.

[Aggies7]

What a performance by the offense. 1 run and 5 hits in 8 innings.

[MNT1996]

Seems like Arraez was the only one with life in his at-bats today. Every one else has looked like zombies

[TwinsCD]

Only thing Franmil Reyes has shown me since his trade to Cleveland is that he looks a lot like Pedro Cerrano when he's at the plate.

[Riverbrian]

Let's go back to this one

[glunn]

Sometimes the opposing pitching is good. Sometimes bats go cold. That's part of the game.

 

We have 3 more outs. Let's hope we can win this one.
