Astros vs Twins, Game 1, 9/28 1pm Central

[LVTwinsfan]

So much blame to go around.

I blame myself for sticking with it

[h2oface]

You say you come to baseball for relaxation?

 

I hate being a Twins fan. 

It is a sad obsession that causes great pain.

Way more pain than enjoyment.

But I can't stop.

It infected me in the sixties. 

Not really healthy.

[T_J]

it's time for Rocco to kick a fvcking table over and get some fire out of these guys.

[TouchEmAllGuy]

Tired of the same ******* thing from this team.

[Bandit34]

This is one of the worst played post-season games I have ever seen in my life. The first game of the 2002 ALDS would probably be the worst. The difference is we won that game. 

[insagt1]

Rocco....Why Romo,,,,,why. Even with the error couldn't he throw strikes to a very slumping Altuve? I just want to vomit.

[umterp23]

Managerial moves are very questionable when the spotlight is brightest...and people were hoping to play astros....quite embarrassing at the moment

[hybridbear]

What a terrible managerial decision by Baldelli to bring in Romo & then leave him in too long. That is inexcusable. Baldelli doesn’t seem to care about winning games the way he manages the bullpen. 

[Aggies7]

How do you not make that play at second. Routine

[dex8425]

Well, I'm done watching. See you all tomorrow.

Romo is such garbage, should never have been resigned in the first place or pitching on this team in the postseason....but then again the offense is a joke too. Like you all said, way too much blame to go around.

 

I can't even explain how frustrating this is, but I know at least I share that feeling with all of you, who completely understand.

 

Terrible baseball.

[Darius]

I also beginning to think Baldelli is already one of the more overrated managers in the game.

[stringer bell]

I don't like Thielbar's chances of getting Brantley.

[USAFChief]

I go back to the trade deadline. It was sooooo easy to see this bullpen was 2 or 3 arms short. Waiver wire pickups and 84 MPH fastballs don't work in the post season.

[jun]

 

Yep. A E and a walk to seal the loss. No wonder they can never win in the postseason. 

Could be worse. Buckle up.

[bighat]

 

 

I seriously dislike Sergio Romo as a baseball player. What in the world is he doing pitching the 9th in a playoff game at this point in his career. What a massive error in judgement.

Definition of a trash heap signing, Twins brass should have known better this year.

[h2oface]

The Twins are letting the whole baseball world down letting the Astros have this game this way. Not just us fans of the Twins.... but all of baseball.

 

You can just blame the FO and the pitching choices and the Baldelli's brain failure...

 

But the Twins only have 2 hits in this game. 2

Total choke all the way around again.

The team with the least errors in the AL..... 

Total.

It infects this franchise.

 

And Baldelli went with Romo.........

Un****ingbelieveable.

 

 

[Battle ur tail off]

 

How do you not make that play at second. Routine

100%, he candy-assed it moving backward all sloppy and cocky-like. Take a step towards the damn base and throw a strike. You don't get style points in the postseason. Step and throw. 

[bighat]

 

 

Could be worse. Buckle up.

We are all expecting it to get much worse, trust me.

[Mill1634]

And now this is a 3 run game because our SS can't make the simplest of plays

[Aggies7]

Bye bye.

[USAFChief]

And now all the top arms in the pen will be on back to back days, tomorrow.

[bighat]

 

 

The Twins are letting the whole baseball world down letting the Astros have this game this way. Not just us fans of the Twins.... but all of baseball.

They're just embarrassing themselves, the rest of baseball doesn't take them seriously enough to be disappointed in the Minnesota Twins.

[amjgt]

Send a message Rocco... pinch hit Polanco in the bottom of the inning.

[Twinfan603]

Considering burning all my Twins gear

[Bandit34]

How does it feel, Polanco, to let your team down? 

[Battle ur tail off]

 

The Twins are letting the whole baseball world down letting the Astros have this game this way. Not just us fans of the Twins.... but all of baseball.

 

Especially when the Astros are playing terrible themselves. Grienke was terrible today and the Twins didn't make him pay at all. 

They also are very weak offensively and we give them runs with Walks and Errors. 

[Vanimal46]

This is so ****ing sad.

[Aggies7]

This is every bit as bad a feeling as losing to the Yankees. Maybe slightly less nauseating
