My preseason optimism, is already waning.  Not even a month into the season.  Maybe too little patience.  But, I'm already feeling it's going to be a long, frustating season.

I'm guessing no Twins pitcher throws 100 pitches until May at the earliest.

I'm guessing that'll be the case for most teams, not just the Twins.  But I would agree with the timeline.

Dick lets us know the Twins haven't had an XBH since the 5th inning.

 

Of Tuesday's game.

Watched the game last night but not able to today. Yesterday it felt like we needed to put him on suicide watch. I can't imagine what today is like with the anemic hitting continuing

Why is Bally Sports putting the opponents’ offensive hitting stats on screen, but consistently leaving off the Twins’ batting stats? Other than this series 1-9 or whatever.

Maybe the FCC deemed the Twins offensive numbers too offensive for broadcast TV?

Maybe you answered your own question: Opponents have hitting stats, the Twins just have batting stats.

Probably due to FCC regulations against obscene materials.

This game has all the earmarks of our pen coming in to somehow blow a nice start by Ryan. I sure hope I'm wrong.

I just had a flasback, down memory lane.  It's the seventh inning in a close game, and I'm expecting Jim Perry to pitch into the ninth inning, in a game against the Orioles. ( Al Worthington, tossed aside a bag of peanuts to begin some soft toss)

No reason for Joe Ryan to come out of this game, so naturally he’s pulled. 85 pitches. Cruising. Nonsense

If you had been paying attention, you’d know the answer is the Twins bullpen 

That's where I went wrong!

I see the humor part of the thread is over.....

We had TWO FCC wisecracks!  

Though, for every joke there is some level of seriousness so you may be right.
