Braves 6, Twins 2: The Braves Go Bomba Squad on Joe Ryan

[Blyleven2011]

Nothing like suffering  through  game after game  ...

Total system failure  , if FO  can't make the changes then it's time ownership stops believing they are the wiz kids ...

Maybe after the draft ownership will confess that this is a total system failure  and  demand some better baseball for the fans ....

Began watching the game and flipped to the FBI trilogy after the fourth home run in the second.  Game over.  Remember thinking as Ryan went out for the ninth inning of his shutout that he was going to be in trouble next time out.  Doesn't mean I think it was a mistake to let him go 9, just that the next start would be a loss for the Twins.

Kept checking during commercials and was pleasantly surprised the Braves score stayed at 6.  Was really expecting a 15+ to 2 blowout.  Seems every time I checked the Twins had a couple guys on base and zero or one out, yet no one scored.  That my friends, is the problem with this team and a problem that won't go away until much of the coaching staff leaves.

Too many problems to even think about what changes are needed to get this club headed in the right direction.  Best place to start is to keep playing the kids, Lewis, Kirilloff, Julien, Wallner and Larnach.  Also try to figure out how to get Miranda back on track and into the lineup.  I guess that process begins by not worrying about this season and jettisoning several pieces of the current team between now and July 31.  And as bad as the Central Division is, who knows what the result will be.

Kept thinking about how good that Atlanta lineup is.  And Eddie Rosario is a key piece of it.  Still believe it was a huge mistake to let him go because he was a big part of the heart and soul of this team.

Rosario was let go so that Kirilloff and Larnach could get into the line-up.

I know.  Still believe it was a mistake, especially considering there are other positions both could play.

Organizational reset please. The sooner the better. This ain’t it

The Braves series is over and in the 3 ugly losses here are the offensive results:

3 runs

13 hits

31 strike outs

It is past time for changes: New hitting coach; new manager; major roster changes.
