Game Thread Twins vs BoSox 6:10 Pre Mortem Can't Do Trigonomtry

[h2oface]

Oh man..... we can't let Robles beat us!!!

[Aggies7]

am I really going to have to watch Robles blow pitches by us right now?

[Irishman]

Bad swing by Sano!

[Aggies7]

I simply refuse to believe that Robles is going to come in with 2 inherited runners and neither even move up a base 

[h2oface]

All the times Robles would come in the game in extras with a runner on second and let them(at least) score......

[Aggies7]

Hahahahaha what was that

"Last hope for the Twins Jake Cave" What are 7 words I never want to hear again!!!!!!!

Another Twins Choke in 9th inning again!!!!!   

[Aggies7]

Robles, the door shutter. All year.

Cave had a pretty darn good AB there ending with a line drive, much better than Gordon's and Sano's ABs. If only the pitching could have been a bit less horrendous tonight...

Also, 250 minute long games that don't even go to the bottom of the 9th are ridiculous. Classic Fenway Park baseball right there.

[Irishman]

Ex-relievers shining elsewhere.

Damn. Robles held us for 3 outs with inherited runners on first and second. Could have used a little of that here. Better plate discipline and Gordon walks and Cave walks and it is 11-10 with one out and the bases loaded. As wild as Robles was and we helped him out. Damn. And it was ROBLES!

Manage to win, and you have a better shot at it.

I have been involved in this thread since around 2013.  It can be a lot of fun when the game is good.  

And when the Twins are losing badly, the negative comments seem more appropriate.

Actually the game threads years ago were a hoot, especially when the team sucked. Discussion ranged from music, to old movies, to where to get the best burrito in Chicago. Gallows humor reigned supreme. It sort of changed when the Twins started winning in ‘19 and posters started treating this like a baseball discussion.  We got too serious, expected too much, and got to critical.
