GAMES THREAD 8/15/2020: Minnesota Twins vs. Kansas City Royals 12:35 CDT

[Nine of twelve]

Gosh darn it.

[Danchat]

Marwin's had some great ABs today, but unfortunately have ended with warning track flyballs.

[ScrapTheNickname]

Sano = Must Turn Away From TV.

(peek ...)

[Aggies7]

Seen about enough of this staumont fellow

[Aggies7]

Someone check the bat speed on the sano and Cruz missed swings. Yikes

[USAFChief]

Man, between Sano and Garver its hard to say which is more disappointing.

Nasty stuff. Gave us all kinds of issues in KC as well.

[USAFChief]

What do you guys think, time to send Sano back to St. Paul to work on his swing? Three ABs, three SOs, all missed Fastballs. Brutal. Never looked like he had a chance. Maybe its time to send him to St. Paul to start over and call up Larnach, Kiriloff or Rooker.

Two of those against a LHer, too.

Garver, I’d say. Kinda know what we’re getting with sano at this point

Double checking the line up...

 

Pretty much the whole team is between the 5th and 1st batters.

[Mill1634]

There is post ASG Littell

[USAFChief]

We going to get a Rosario PH this inning?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Alright.

 

Crunch time.

 

2 runs or more in 3 outs or less.

[h2oface]

7 innings. Little League Baseball.

[Aggies7]

Good gracious, some of the boys are just getting overmatched at the playe

[Aggies7]

I’ve never seen so many 3 pitch strikeouts in my life

[h2oface]

2 Twins hits..... 13 Ks in 7 innings. Not much revenge.

 

[Aggies7]

Royals now have 68 wins the past two seasons, 9 against the twins.

[h2oface]

Berrios is so very disappointing so far.

[USAFChief]

Geez, when did KC get two guys who throw 100 MPH?!!!

well, Rosenthal came on a minor league deal last December. Anyone could have had him.

[bighat]

Embarrassing.

 

Enough of KC already. Hasn't even really been close either, they've dominated the season series straight up.

[Aggies7]

Berrios is so very disappointing so far.

So is most of the offense.

[drock2190]

Hate to say it but that KC end of the bullpen looks better the Twins.

[h2oface]

 

Royals now have 68 wins the past two seasons, 9 against the twins.

 

Why don't we ever get these guys? You know.... the pitching gurus in charge ......

[USAFChief]

Berrios is so very disappointing so far.

yeah, but this particular game falls on Rocco, IYAM.

 

Can't just pretend he's something he isn't.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

So i suppose now i have to give the chicken back...

[h2oface]

 

So is most of the offense.

 

Ya but.....

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Thanks all for the company!

 

And sorry i ate all the tater tots.

[h2oface]

 

Embarrassing.

5 more games coming in the next two days and next week. We could put them in first place.

[Twodogs]

Twins hitting is terrible. I mean yeah they hit a few dingers and stuff but their team batting average is like at .240 and their OPS is like at .740 and OBP is like at .319. both numbers are not good. They need to be OPSing around .770 and have an OBP around .340 to be doing good. It's actually amazing that they are doing as well as they are right now with such poor hitting.
