And a Kepler K to finish it off! 

[Game7-91]

Sad, are we in 3rd place now?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Guess not...

So the law of averages says ?

The law of averages would suggest that he will get injured.

History also does repeat itself in many cases. If history repeats itself, he won’t miss more than one game

Did Kepler just go 0-for the entire road trip?

Yes, and would still prefer9-toed Max to Jake Cave

[RickOShea]

Well it's a tough time.  I feel bad for those Twins who will not be earning as much as they could have.  Tough to play a kids game and then be penalized pay, because you can't perform.

Wait a minute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  No matter how they play they make their full pay.  In fact I've heard guys get raises after medicore or worse seasons.  No wonder, the effort sucks.

I'd take Cave's fielding over Gordon any day.

O fer LA! O fer California. O fer August.  O fer return. 0 fer 26 in a row and counting. Brutal.

But on the bright side, only 5 Ks.

[Aggies7]

3 winning months the last 2 seasons

Another embarrassing loss. Cleveland is up 2.5 games now.

Anybody going to the game tomorrow?  Curious if there will be any Kepler jerseys with an electrical tape 0 -

No real improvement, in my book.

It's ******, but we should have been sellers at the deadline.

And the string of embarrassing losses continues to grow with each passing pathetic performance.

Looks like Baltimore knew what they were doing. They knew something we didn't. 

Why do so many of our trades or accusitions of these pitchers seem to bring out the worst in them? why do they seem to wait until they get on the Twins to really suck.

[mnfireman]

I think I have watched this train wreck enough for awhile, no longer going prioritize watching/listening to this team work their way down the standings. Will still check in here periodically and check the box scores, but it's time for a break....

[CRF]

Wow! That was absolutely putrid. Like a trip on the Titanic bad. How did they even win the one game? 3rd place here we come. WTF happened to Kep? He's brutal!  

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Back on the Mavericks/Malo thread. I think this fits.
