Game Thread: Twins v BoSox Double Header, 4/13/21 at 1:10pm and 4:25pm CT

[Aggies7]

man, it was 6-0 in the 6th inning on sunday and it's been total garbage ever since. 

[Mill1634]

Yikes. We are playing absolutely horrible right now.

 

And then that.

 

You're ****ting me

[cHawk]

unreal

[USAFChief]

Another fine job from the bullpen.

[Mill1634]

I'm not sure what's worse to watch right now...the Twins pitchers try to hold a marginal lead, or the hitters attempting to hit.

well, yeah, but one of "big gun" starters wilted to start it off

Yes.

[Aggies7]

how many more innings would we have to play for this junk offense to score at least 3 runs

[LVTwinsfan]

Twins could very well win the division this season. Then they could also get swept in the playoffs again. And no, there is no David Ortiz curse, there is the quality of pitching that most playoff teams have and the Twins do not have

Stan Laurel agrees.

[jun]

Duffey made sure all the inherited runners score.

[Cap'n Piranha]

What has happened to Tyler Duffey?

[Aggies7]

holy **** can we throw strikes

Bold to assume we're going to waltz into the playoffs. At this point, it appears that 2019 was the outlier for a fair number of these players, rather than them progressing into the stars we hoped they would become. Of course, it's early and things likely will trend upwards. 

[jun]

What a wonderful bullpen!

[Aggies7]

 

What has happened to Tyler Duffey?

what's happened to almost everyone who won 101 games in 2019

[wsnydes]

Reloads the bases for good luck????

[Mill1634]

If Duffey is not the Duffey we've seen in the past, which given the start of the season and spring, he isn't, the bullpen is in trouble. The reshaped bullpen has a lot lying on Duffey's shoulders, and if he doesn't have it, the bullpen is in trouble.

Is pitching really the main problem for this team right now?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Fortunately, we got an offense that can answer this!

[MNT1996]

Between the recent communication of the Twins front office and the product the team is currently putting out there it might be a struggle for them to fill those 10k seats per game.

Where?

they should have a moment of silence for those of us who choose to watch this bunk

The bullpen is just not good. I said it before the season started. This season might not be the season we all expect.

Central division is weak, our offense will come around, I still believe pitching is our biggest issue

[MVP Nick Punto]

*a-hem*.... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it’s not JUST not good, from what we’ve seen, this might be the worst bullpen in history.

[Aggies7]

BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
