How would one color you “perplexed”? 

Pinch hitting for Julien and Wallner at the drop of a hat, but not Christian Vasquez in a one run game will do it. 

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Super-frustrated!

Pulled up my dupont automotive paint chart. And you nailed it

Magic Number falls to Kirby Puckett. 

[USAFChief]

Nothing against him, but it's time for Dick to retire and fish walleye all summer.

Angel Hernandez could be paying to work for all we know.

.... and Gallo too? I have neither seen either cash a check. Wait, what are checks?

I think there might be a minimum wage law somewhere though.

On a more serious note - where is Cole Sands?

“Built for October”, but struggle against the dregs of the league

Their problem appears to that while they may be built for October, they apparently aren't built for April to September. 

And that's a huge problem.

Sounds like you may have something against him 😂

Hatch is literally a nobody. Bullpen filler. Not even AAAA.

Infuriating to see these scrap heap pitchers just own the Twins this year. 

[Aggies7]

Gotta burn another arm now. 

[tony&rodney]

Sands is real.

[USAFChief]

Say good night Gracie.

Cole Sands is unavailable to pitch as he is cashing his ML check.

Found him!

Balazovic’s outing explained in gif form

[OvertheHill]

Mccutchen signed a 1 year deal with Pittsburgh this year for $5.0M. Joey Gallo signed a 1-year deal with the Twins for … never mind

I disagree! I love Dick!.... cough cough, I love Dick... Bremer, yeah Dick Bremer. 

[Woof Bronzer]

OMG Cole Sands!!!!

[OvertheHill]

I so wanted the Twins to sign Mccutchen this past offseason.

Cutch wasn't available outside of Pittsburgh. 

[Aggies7]

Good grief can someone get this last out or what 

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Another very good Gray start wasted by crap hitting and a worse bullpen

[USAFChief]

We've discovered Cole Sands role on this team: relieving the other mop up guy when they can't stumble through one inning.

[TWTwinsFan]

One veteran hit a 2run single on bases loaded two outs,the other strikeout on a no doubt fastball in the zone the same situation, thats the game.

[Aggies7]

That dude has walked in the 7, 8 and 9 innings. Have to be careful pitching to Jack Suwinski

[tony&rodney]

We found our new set up guy.
