Pathetic Bullpen. They could be kind to Berrios and trade him to a team that deserves him.

He didn’t exactly pitch very well today. Other times this year he hasn’t pitched very well.

One coaching staff change that needs to happen: Edgar Varela.

 

I wanted him gone after last year; even more now.

Who's that?

[cHawk]

Who's that?

The hitting coach

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What i miss?

 

Nevermind, let's put up some runs!

 

Some? I mean all of them!

[operation mindcrime]

Miguel Cabrera had 6 hits for the entire season coming in to this series.

 

he now has 10

Hall of fame!

[MNT1996]

Garlick should be playing everyday while Buxton is out

He only gave up 2 runs.

[MNT1996]

Another professional AB from Sano

[Aggies7]

Another 3 K day for sano! Ho hum

[cHawk]

He only gave up 2 runs.

He allowed like 10 baserunners. If that were LA, the Yankees, or Chicago it would be 6 or 7 runs

[operation mindcrime]

Another 3 K day for sano! Ho hum

You've got to love that consistency!

[Aggies7]

 

You've got to love that consistency!

Like the swallows of Capistrano 

[MNT1996]

Way to make him work, Kepler

[Danchat]

This lineup is legally obligated to score a maximum of 3 runs, it seems.

[Nine of twelve]

Well, what fun that was. That drops me to 0-2 in game thread openers this season.

That was so clutch!

DFA yourself!

The k's continue. But even with the wildness of Soto, Kepler swings at the 1st pitch and hits an easy grounder to end it. Just like that. I don't think these guys have a clue anymore on how to score runs consistently...when they need them. What did they leave on base today? 16? Just plain ugly.

[MMMordabito]

Hmm ... Shame walk them Queen Cersei-style through downtown Minneapolis?

 

That's all I got.

Pathetic Bullpen. They could be kind to Berrios and trade him to a team that deserves him.

 

Like to the Mets. Then he could join his teammate for the weekly "deGroming" and get even less run support......

 

We keep wasting his starts, that's for sure. 

Larnach fit right in on his debut. Added to the hole in the bottom of the lineup.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Tiger, tiger burning bright...

[denarded]

Dump Sano tomorrow. Let Kiiriloff take over his best defensive position. Don't let the ghost of David Ortiz cloud your judgement Twins management

Kirilloff (Kir-ill-off 2 l's 2 f's) is on the IL.

Kirilloff (Kir-ill-off 2 l's 2 f's) is on the IL.

I know that, but I don't care. Let Austudillo play first until he's back. Sano is so useless it's beyond words. I guess he's good scooping balls at first I don't think I've ever been angrier at watching a player up to bat

For is it not written, "4 shalt though not score, neither 2, unless proceeding directly home for a third run. 5 is right out"

[AceWrigley]

 

DFA yourself!

I think we have a new Twins battle cry
