and Rortvedt...I'm willing to have next season be a bit of a retool season.

Rortvedt is a 3rd catcher at best. With Rocco, the back-up catches 40% of the time, Continue to roll with Jeffers/Garver and occasionally put Garver at 1B/DH.

This offense is ba-rutal lol

[Aggies7]

Fire sale still on track, IMO

[AceWrigley]

It's hard to score runs when all the hits only come from a few guys. I've noticed this in recent Twins games; its just a few guys getting all the hits.

[RickOShea]

How ironic, our offense's weakness at key times,  is striking out.  Our bullpen's weakness is not being able to put hitters away at key times with a strikeout.

[ashbury]

Just popping in, but it looks like the Twins batters are working on wasting a very fine outing by Jose.

[AceWrigley]

Also, someone needs to tell Refsnyder what the warning track is for.

[SanoMustGo]

Cruz looks old

 

[RickOShea]

Is Donaldson a Canadian?  He sure likes to get down on his knees.

I thought the Twins should have signed Galvis. Decent bat, capable at second and short.

I think he believes the track is for absorbing spit from the stands and beers that get spilled over the wall.

Let Berrios go 9! Plus the good news about this game is that it makes Berrios’ stats better, and ups his trade value.

[howeda7]

I really like Mullins.

If you like it then you should put a ring on it!

Can we trade Sano for him? ?

[SanoMustGo]

Sano 2-29

[howeda7]

3 Ks and a pop out for Sano. 

[stringer bell]

Can we call it the Miguel Sanó sombrero?

[RickOShea]

I wonder when Sano misses a putt, is by a foot or by a yard?

[stringer bell]

Refsnyder regressing, shouldn’t be surprising. 

[RickOShea]

The Twins' hitter in the ninth look like little leaguers who try and hit against that one kid who is abnormally big.   Like Lurch pitching against a smurf.

[Aggies7]

13 strike outs and 25 swings and misses in 9 innings. Appalling 

[SanoMustGo]

here comes the end of the losing streak

 

[RickOShea]

For once, I'd like to see Rocco just leave the dugout during a game and say , 'fu-k it".

[stringer bell]

Bottom of the ninth and it’s 2:29. I do like quick games, but I hope this one goes 10.

Swing and a miss.

Running into the wall like butch Huskey didn’t help
