That deserves an expletive.

[Aggies7]

Ouch.

[Irishman]

8Ks in 4 innings.    They are awful tonight.   
They are not very good team, period!  
I’m very glad I didn’t renew the subscription for MLBTv. Good grief!

I don’t think ol’ Louie is gonna cut the mustard as a starting pitcher 

The stuff is there, just catches too much of the plate.

Will we ever be contenders?

I used to go all the time.  Haven’t gone for 3 years now.

 

i save a lot of money that Pohlad doesn’t get.

I used to go to multiple games a year also. Last year I didn't go at all, and it looks like I won't be going this year either.

For some reason, in 30+ years of watching Minnesota sports, it takes ALOT more for the fans to boo the twins than it does the Vikings. A lot more. For some reason 

Twins are 2 for 3 in big games; Vikings are 0 for 4 and none were close.

[h2oface]

Middle, middle. Announcers love to say a pitcher only threw 2 mistakes, otherwise, pitched a great game. Right. Of course there are the walks and the other hits that put runners on. Varland has not pitched a good game. ERA sitting a run per inning now. 9.00. Free Varland!!!

 Michael Tonkin acquired in trade with Mets for cash considerations;   well we do have a xtra 30+ million   ,  Can only chuckle

Not sure about that.

He DEFINITELY catches too much barrel.

[RpR]

Time to platoon players; spread the misery among more players.

They caught KC at the right time. And 1 big inning vs Milwaukee 

[RickOShea]

very disheartening.  when you consider a rare win as a major fluke, and you have to wait games for that to  happen, you wonder where your ownership and FO heads are at.

[Tlaker]

Why the hell we didn’t fire Rocco and the FO a year and a half ago is beyond me……. 
this organization is a bad AA club at best.🤮

[CRF]

Wow...this is getting pretty bad.

Chopping block hopefully

Sure, but the twins won so long ago, you’ve got people like me (almost 40) who didn’t stay up late enough to see their last World Series.

Both have been equal failures in my watching lifetime

Acceptable response.

But I was looking for…”It’s a miracle!”

[MABB1959]

The RISP won’t be so dreadful tonight.  5 innings and 1 hit?  I was a negative Nellie during Spring Training but kept hearing that ST doesn’t mean anything.  I don’t think many ST games were played with the full team.

you wonder where your ownership and FO heads are at.   ??? any guesses

[RpR]

Wallner watches one down the middle of the plate go on by, my, my, my.

[Aggies7]

You know it’s bad when you want to see a guy benched because you feel bad for him. It’s like when a field goal kicker struggles. Poor wallner 

[LewFordLives]

Castro put a ball in play!

[Aggies7]

Would anyone have traded those couple postseason wins for a wholesale change this past offseason?

[MABB1959]

Since it is over, they should leave Varland in.
