Game Thread—Twins @ Cleveland 5:10 PM

Duffey even with a double chin, now. Just great. He is toast.

 

You mean he’s no longer effective? 

[bighat]

Bullpen meltdowns tonight: 1 and counting.

[USAFChief]

Duffey at 92 without control. Of anything.

He’s broken

Bullpen meltdowns tonight: 1 and counting.

It’s not really a meltdown if they’re pitching to the best of their abilities

[h2oface]

Ready for Colome?? Classic.

[D.C Twins]

Rocco is just over analyzing. He needs to take a step back, simplify things and get back to the basics.

[cHawk]

 

Ready for Colome?? Classic.

I’d prefer Rogers

A better defensive LF catches that ball from Rosario... and that was a really good throw home from Rooker. If Rosario's a bit slower, that's an out.

All the "experts" around he said Rosario was slow, that was one of the reasons we got rid of him...

[LVTwinsfan]

Its a beautiful day in the neighborhood

I don't actually remember anyone saying that.

 

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Wait...

 

What did we do last time they tied the game?

 

Can we do that again?

[h2oface]

Dick paying attention, still has Rooker in the game.

[h2oface]

 

I’d prefer Rogers

 

No schitzt creek, sherlock.

[USAFChief]

Do we know why Rocco took out Arraez for Lin? Does lin have much experience in LF?

 

 

 

[Aggies7]

There literally isn’t one guy in the bullpen who’s trustworthy. not one

[cHawk]

IDK.

 

All I can say is you were right about the ‘pen all along. Even the relievers we thought would be rock solid have been awful.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

can we

will we

must we

ought we

[LVTwinsfan]

There literally isn’t one guy in the bullpen who’s trustworthy. not one

no one can dispute that

[cHawk]

Great AB Polanco

[cHawk]

 

There literally isn’t one guy in the bullpen who’s trustworthy. not one

 

What about Rogers

Depends on what you trust them to do...

[h2oface]

Rodgers going in for the hold, with no runner on second yet. And who does that leave for the 10th? A junk ball pitch to contact maligned hurler with a runner on second? Is that what the spread sheet says?

[cHawk]

As bad as the pen has been, it has gotten NO help from the offense.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

can we
will we

ought we

Sorry,

 

May we? 

 

Please?

How about Rogers for a 2nd Inning

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Our contact hitter hit a nice foul ball in that at bat.

[cHawk]

Does this team even give a sh$t anymore?

[LVTwinsfan]

IDK.

you can’t win in the majors without a good bullpen, the Twins know that yet didn’t seriously address that. Duffey and Rogers are just so so IMO, both have been good at times, both have gotten shelled plenty

[h2oface]

Ya. Stay off Astudillo's back. He is a stud (illo). It's fun watching him swing at pitches like that in a tie game in the ninth.
