Game Thread Twins vs. Rangers 6:40pm cdt 5/5/2021 ad

[Nine of twelve]

There are only two words we need to know: Phil Cuzzi.

[PDX Twin]

 

Guess who still doesn't know fair/foul?

 

'Cause he's (Cuzzi's) not a good ump!

[cHawk]

We are making countless fielding gaps, always resulting in runs. Let's start by fixing that.

[Mill1634]

Polanco has been poor in the field today

[Brock Beauchamp]

I don't know that Simmons could have gotten Gallo either way but come on, Jorge...

[Danchat]

I guess I should take back my praise of Thorpe... 

[PDX Twin]

That should be a semi-earned run.

[Aggies7]

Who would’ve thought Lewis Thorpe wasn’t a great option for a starter except everyone?

[cHawk]

The Twins would be getting their sh()t handed to them by a real opponent...

[Vanimal46]

So what happened to Thorpe's added velo?

I can’t get out of my head the similarities between Thorpe’s situation and Taylor Rogers not too long ago. It seems silly to keep trying him as a starter when he barely makes it to the 5th inning without getting in trouble. Him or Smeltzer could find new life in the pen.

He's pitching fine rn

Depends on what he's starting...

[Brock Beauchamp]

Eh? He's looked okay this season, though his velo is still concerning.

[Danchat]

What the... Gameday had the game at 4-1 for a little bit, so I thought Thorpe gave up 4 runs. Disregard my past comment.

[Aggies7]

Gameday had this as a 3-1 rangers lead. I turn on mlb tv and it’s 1-1. What the heck

That was Phil Cuzzi being Phil Cuzzi. He’s always had trouble reading the foul lines.

[FlauerPauer]

Regardless of that double... it's sad our cleanup hitter the past two years has been replaced by a waiver claim...

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

He's pitching fine rn

Getting results tonight, but also way too much hard contact tonight

[PDX Twin]

Garlick leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

There was foul called fair briefly with 2 on before the call got corrected.

[IndianaTwin]

 

Thanks for the historical clarification. (and 96%... leaves some room for improvement.)

 

Cinco de Mayo just sounds cool. Almost as good as Hellmann's mayo.

 

Sorry -- can't do it. Can't bring myself to click the "like" button on a post complimenting mayonnaise. 

 

That does remind me of the ship overloaded with Hellmann's that went under just off the Mexican coast.

 

It was the sinko de mayo.  

[sampleSizeOfOne]

They have us right where they want us...

 

Bases loaded, no one out.

 

We're doomed.

There's a clinic on subject in the town where i grew up...

[FlauerPauer]

Bases loaded no outs? No way the boys can **** this one up.

[cHawk]

ffs Polanco

[Aggies7]

 

Bases loaded no outs? No way the boys can **** this one up.

Im afraid they can, sir.

[FlauerPauer]

Buddah give me strength.

[Muppet]

Bases loaded no outs? No way the boys can **** this one up.

I’d bet $20 they come up empty

[PDX Twin]

What team have you been watching???

[nicksaviking]

That would have been a good spot for Polanco to make contact if he had planned to do so at all today.
