Game Thread: Twins v Tigers, 4/19/24 @ 7:10 CT

[SockNet]

I see a Tiger team that’s taken every advantage given to them in 5 games cashing in on Twins mistakes. The twins do not.

You forgot Vasquez and Margot

Yes. But we know they won't cut Vazquez.

Hell of an AB, Buck.

And I forgot Buxton.

C;mon baseball phrase: Lead off strike outs will haunt. 

[jaimedude]

12 strikeouts and counting. Sigh! Hitting approach so flawed.

Evidently it's a requirement for the Tigers bullpen. 3rd reliever in a row with the long mullet and facial hair.

Written into the contract like no beards on the Yankees.

[Vanimal46]

Those remaining years on Buxton's contract could be very, very ugly

This was the home stand to flip the switch. If they don't do it now, they're not going to.

That’s not true, they gave us game 1 on Saturday. Basically gave us 6 runs in that last inning. To be fair, we TRIED not to take advantage

Once again... you haven't really narrowed it down for easy identification in a crowd.

This season is 2021 all over again.

Exactly and Rocco should have been fired then! But here we are….

Ugly started a couple years ago.  Buxton is a media creation.

At least it’s Vazquez 

[AussieG]

Vazquez?

[howeda7]

Of course we have no one left to PH for Vazquez...

[Vanimal46]

Lol just waiving the white flag letting Vazquez hit here. 

[IndyTwinsFan]

Yet another in a long line of disgusting losses this season, already.

[Aggies7]

We’re so bad haha

[$tryf4Life]

yikes. 

 Twins are a tough watch.

That wouldn't change the incredibly questionable quality of lineups we are seeing...

[Vanimal46]

Entirely predictable. Where's the pinch hitter?

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Yeah, it's not happening. Twins will be 10+ out by May 1st.

[OvertheHill]

They should refund the tickets to those who sat through it. That wasn’t my idea of Major League Baseball. 

[Winston Smith]

Some teams might fire the manager in this situation, the Twins will just add more excuses to the script.

Yep….. and not hearing nearly enough boos over the radio!!!!

[Parfigliano]

When they are 12-24 can they start playing the kids and fire the manager and staff.
