I think a combined perfect game might be somewhat worse to have thrown against you

Also not like it's some young top prospect and they need to protect his arm. We're talking about a first ballot HOF'er at the end of his career. You let him make the decision-so he's not coming out. 

Just my two cents, but he doesn't look like he's at the end of his career.

Dodgers look like they are LAUGHING ,  Gonna be a tough  loss to take

[Danchat]

Booooo put Kershaw back in you cowards!!

[Rosterman]

You get three innings out of Rodriguez? You need more?

 

But you can't keep starters in for five innings?

 

Like, Griffin Jax is just in the pen holding down the cooler? You got a day off tomorrow. If you can't at least make an effort to play against the good (great) teams, tell the front office to saying we are "set to contend in 2022."

 

Man, what will the Twins be like when they have a couple fewer arms on the roster. Wait, the light-rail will run daily between St. Paul and Minneapolis until all 22 pitchers on the St. Paul roster get a game in Target Field!

Well it certainly would if Brusdar Graterol gets to be included in that perfect game.

Imagine explaining this to a baseball fan in 1970

The fact that the Twins are already DFA'ing pitchers and bringing guys up just to DFA the next day is really scary. This is game number 6.

Queue mikelink or tarheel

[Puckett34]

hey look! a baserunner!

[Aggies7]

Good, now it’s just a normal everyday embarrassing loss instead of an historic one

[dex8425]

So, what would have happened if they let Kershaw pitch? We'll never know, now. Stupid. 

[Mill1634]

Serves Dave Roberts right. Absolutely stupid decision to take out Kershaw, and I am all for protecting guys health.

Time for a well timed Rally Squirrel (TM)

Sitting a guy with a perfect game through 7 on 80 pitches would've been almost universally panned all the way up through the early 2000's, I think.

Close, but it was 1971.

[dex8425]

Watch the Twins come back now.

[LastOnePicked]

I now believe I am good luck, and this will end 7-6 Twins.

[wavedog]

Let's put a 7 spot up on the board against this Twins-like reliever

Usually you gotta pay double for that

Ellen has officially removed Vesia from the Xmas card list.

Sano is absolutely terrible right now.

[Aggies7]

Sano finally makes contact. With the ground
