What did you expect? Alex Faedo may be the best 5.80 ERA pitcher in baseball history!

Detroit radio booth said they have never seen him look so good -- best game of the year. Is that Faedo or is that the Twins?

[USAFChief]

I'm pretty not impressed with Ober lately.

[Dave Borton]

 I think Chief sneezed in his pants. Notable absence.

[LanceJS]

Forgive me if Dick or Justin mentioned it earlier, but I just turned on the game a few minutes ago and saw the Detroit pitcher is Faedo. Is he related to the former Twin Lenny Faedo?

Twins.

The Twins look like they all donated blood, yesterday.

Kuechel will be around for a while longer than we may want, but it will allow everyone a little rest one way or the other.

Blew off the cup of juice after it too.

The ump's strike zone has been very consistent. He's been better than most veteran umps.

This ump's no Angel.

I wish that Team Schizophrenia would make up its mind what sort of team it wants to be -- as good as when they played against Philly and Arizona or as bad as when they've played against KC and Detroit.  This flip-flopping is driving me nuts.

Might as well get it started: Gallo playing and Julien not?! 

I am legitimately annoyed by that. Solano still feeling it enough that he can't play 1B? Polanco can't shift over to 1B? How is there no way for this team to get the worst hitter in baseball out of the lineup?

Just turned on the game and was wondering if Julien is hurt.

I couldn’t agree more with your comment: now Gallo is taking Julien’s ABs? WTH!

The powerful Faedo with his 5.55 era throwing, like pretty much like every Tiger pitcher against us, a Cy Young performance. Gotta love the AL central..  where .500 makes you a division champion 

[MMMordabito]

Faedo must have been going for like $12K on FanDuel.

[ChermesZ]

How many shutout innings in a row vs the tigers?

[Aggies7]

Absolutely deflating to struggle against a mediocre at best team after last weekend

[RickOShea]

Is Floro the only pitcher's name rocco can spell?  

[Aggies7]

It was you, Faedo!

Especially at home.

[Irishman]

Faedo pitches better than Ober.    Oh bummer!   

[Dave Borton]

Cleve up 3-0 against Reds. Bottom 9.

We don't know that yet, either.

Time to score yet?
