This is a troublesome trend. Twins fall behind every game. And clearly Gibson is gassed and should be shut down. His performance tonite was borderline disgraceful. I mean...they guy couldn't throw strikes and put his team in a deep hole early.

I hope the Twins realize that in a few hours they may very well have a 3 game lead. THEN, will some agree that these have become must wins for a team that wants to compete in post season?

 

We barely won the Chicago series...and already 3 behind the nearly 100 loss Royals...meanwhile Cleveland is taking care of business as they should. this is clearly no fun.

Hmm. I bet it is for the players

BTW, I'm not buying the Indians.  They are 23-35 against teams with .500 or greater.  Granted, we are 32-37, but a couple of those were close games against the Yankees.  If the Indians want in, they have to win against 2 >.500 teams in the next 3 series and I don't think they can do it.  If they want the division, they have to win 3 or 4 more games than us in the next 9.  If we win 5, they have to win 8 or 9.  It's not happening.  If we win 3 against Detroit and KC, they have to win 6-7....maybe, but the numbers say they will only win 2 or 3 of the 6 against Philly and Washington which means they will need to sweep the White Sox on the road...I'm just not worried.

Don't mind LaMarre trying to get into scoring position..a good risk and now Garver leads off the next inning.

Since Gibson came back from the IL he has been awful. No point in putting him in the pen...he has gone bad early in all his appearances so what's the point?

 

Both Sox and Royals have been getting leadoff hitters on with scary regularity.

Get Thorpe the heck out of there. Twins are going to be playing from behind again because their pitching tonite has been little league.

The Indians, for the most part, beat the teams they should beat. The twins, meanwhile, struggle to win home series against bad teams.
