I should live for another 50 years or so and I will never understand or enjoy what the pitching side of baseball has become.

Game over.

[Danchat]

Alcala was going to pitch at some point today... but probably not ready to take on the Lindors and Ramirezs yet. At the outset of this season there was no guarantee he was going to be pitching any important innings.

 

Well, you're not going to win most games scoring 2 runs, so let's get the offense going again.

Game over.

 

 

Isn't this where someone slaps in a Bluto/ Animal House meme and no one charges out the front door? Germans and Pearl Harbor, anyone?

Man, I'm so pissed that Rocco pulled Hill. Like really steamed.

I go take a shower up 1 and come back down 2... I'm never taking a shower again.

Nope, 8th or 9th for that

7 years of college, down the drain, might as well join the f**king Peace Corps

Welcome to the starting pitcher fraternity!!

What I absolutely hate about Rocco is that it seems like decides weeks in advance who is going to pitch and pitch which innings and everything is scripted so none of his moves make actual baseball sense.And he just refuses to deviate from his plan.

 

Some of this is likely the front office but they would not have hired him if he wasn't onboard with it too.

For $7500 Joe Maier better come to my house to say hello.

That'll work.

Perez throws 92. What's the deal with the eight different deliveries? Screw that guy.

Whoa, whoa, think it over

Everyone is pretty much always in this state anyway:

[FlauerPauer]

First pitch?!!!?!??!?!?!

[Sielk]

I hate double plays.

[MVP Nick Punto]

Whoa, whoa, think it over

When showers I take,

The Twins fortunes turn to sh*t.

I bathe no longer.

And yet here you are.

Honestly I resent being corrected when I didn’t say anything wrong

[USAFChief]

Yes, Dick. He could have hit it harder.

Arent you a joy! Just trying to focus on the game, I bet.

Mostly to complain about the pitching moves.

Mostly?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Pollen with the best stuff on the team—but not quite. But I’d say his stuff moves the most.

 

Edit: Pollen, Poppen, whoever lol

And people wonder why game threads are dead at TD. Wonderful banter here.
