Win or Lose tonight, this roster needs a good housecleaning. I chuckle at the threads that ask “but who will they demote?” 

How about 6 or 8 of them 
 

We started 3 possibly 4 guys who don’t belong in the bigs tonight

If there is a stat for team base-running WAR, I'm pretty sure the 2022 Twins would be close to the bottom all-time.

I hope that’s the end of C Hamiltons pinchrunning days

[mrtwinsfan]

The only reason twins signed Billy for, And so why would he ever start a game, its insane some of roccos moves,

Rocco is either on drugs or brain dead... or both

He'd probably be fine on another team, but with this team participating or preventing base-running advantage appears to be an afterthought.

I blame Rocco for a lot of things but the boneheaded baserunning is not on him

Hamilton is a good fielder.

[LVTwinsfan]

There’s a gift call

[Aggies7]

[Aggies7]

There’s the bloop

Stop it

[Aggies7]

Fulmer? Lmao 

[William K Johnson]

Making a call.   Judge two-run homer and we all go home.

[Vanimal46]

Robo umps can’t happen soon enough. Thielbar was gifted 2 outside pitches as strikes. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Wouldnt it been better odds Hicks hitting r.h. for a d.p, chance b4 judge ?

[Aggies7]

Duran threw 28 pitches yesterday. I know that’s a fair amount but he should be in this game right now 

[Twins_Fan_For_Life]

Get an out!

I can see this one eventually slipping away.  Not sure why I feel that way.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Radio guys talking about the last Twin to get a save in Yankees stadium was Glen Perkins in 2013. 

I know Tyler Wells got a save there last year for Baltimore. 

come on Fulmer!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Welp, walking Judge lol 

[Aggies7]

Here we blow again!

[Vanimal46]

You gotta walk Judge. 

[Twins_Fan_For_Life]

Well at least first base is open.

[AussieG]

.......

[Aggies7]

Bringing in Michael Fulmer is managerial incompetence. Another loss in yankee stadium. So well deserved like so many others 

[Aggies7]

Anger, denial, acceptance. I’m at acceptance 

[h2oface]

Great trades. Lopez and Fulmer to blow the game. All Lopez does is whine and suck. Fulmer doesn't whine, but still sucks. Maybe he redeems himself tonight.....
