Game Thread: Twins (Lopez) v Guardians (Bibee), 6/1/23 @ 6:40 CT

[Montdak]

I don’t know why they so consistently walk the opponents weaker hitters.  Then immediately in trouble of course.

Sometimes I miss Eddie Rosario

[mrtwinsfan]

Pablo,  game right here

He was a really fun player to watch but it's hard to deny the Twins got out of the Eddie Rosario business at the exact right time.

[Montdak]

What else is new?

[CoastiePilot08]

Damn. Come on Pablo. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Buxton out with rib soreness, I see.

That's a new one, isn't it?

Hopefully we'll get those Eddie chants for Julien

[CoastiePilot08]

Way to give it right back Lopez. SMH. 

[OvertheHill]

Bell NOT swinging for a HR on a pitch away

[Brock Beauchamp]

Pablo is in the midst of a not-awesome run of pitching. Thankfully he hasn't been atrocious and the rest of the rotation has still been good.

[CoastiePilot08]

Well this sucks 

[rwilfong86]

Not impressed with post contract Lopez. 

[IndyTwinsFan]

Gonna be a multiple run deficit shortly, I sense.

This aged about as well as their music, lol

[RickOShea]

I've seen this rinky dink cleveland play before. It's so frustrating.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Good lord. This is a combination of dumb luck, lackluster pitching, and not great defense.

[Danchat]

Too bad Rocco didn't opt for the quick hook this time around...

[mrtwinsfan]

Pablo to Pagan,  what could go wrong ??

I hope not.  Three more runs to tie is asking a lot for this team.

Time to get Lopez out of there, NOW.  Thankfully, Rocco heard.

This comment is just... bad.

The Twins are near the top of baseball in starter innings pitched.

Let dumb inaccurate narratives die, please.

[jimbo92107]

Well, at least that doesn't happen very often...

Sure hope the Twins starters aren't all about to "regress to the mean."

[OvertheHill]

Started with walk to someone named Straw.

They've legitimately been as good as their stats last I checked.

It's just Lopez that has been going through an off-and-on rough patch for six-ish weeks.

[CoastiePilot08]

Bummer

October, hopefully.

If normal Correa doesnt show soon come Oct he shows up on a golf course

[Tlaker]

So tired of this mediocrity!

I'm not arguing for it in hindsight, it's simply too bad it didn't happen today. Especially after we had two full pages of bickering about keeping Varland in for the 8th in yesterday's game recap thread.
