Fun fact: Caleb Thielbar is the highest paid reliever on the team...

Fun fact....Alex Verdugo makes the same $$$$ as Manny Margot....who would we rather have hitting and playing the outfield??  SMH

[Parfigliano]

They suck.    Boy.  Girl. Hrd.

that's how many wins the Twins have had against the Yankee$$$$ since '02. Actually, we are 44-118 vs. the Brinks Bombers. Thanks, Manfred, for not implementing a salary cap and a level playing field for all 30 teams. Manfred, why don't you quit being Commisioner of MLB, and have someone who can give the Twins a fighting chance vs. the Yank$$$$.

I was being facetious.

But on a serious note, no one else has been as bad against them as the twins. And there are much smaller payrolls than ours.

It's 6-0 Yankees. Why don't we just quit the rest of the game, then watch the Wolves quit against Denver, and have the ladies over at the Lynx laugh at us? Now there is one team that knows how to win championships in Minnesota. Because of the Yankees, I'm being pessimistic now. The Twins better sweep the Guardians, or this season is over.

McDreamy. Verdugo ugly. Wow. Getting pretty superficial on the board today. Good thing we can't see the posters, eh?

Oh come on look at that guy and tell me he’s not weird looking. Maybe weird is a better adjective. 

[Fitzpatrick54]

I wonder how Tom at TFTwins over on YouTube will recap this series...let's at least score a few runs, and look ahead to the Guardians series.

How many times a year can a season be over? I heard it was over at 7-13, and many times before that. This could be a record year for the season being over.

 Doubles don't score runs except in extra innings. Has to be other people getting hits or walks before or after to make it happen. It's a double-standard.

Heh.

You mean like the 6th inning? Where Ryan gave up a double, but somebody else had to let in the run?

double standard indeed.

And for the record, that first inning "double" wasn't a double. Except in some idiot official scorer's opinion.

[Aggies7]

I don’t follow the minor leagues like some people here do. Do we really not have any better position players  to give a look at than some of the guys we play every day?

They don't have to sweep the Guardians. Win the series. Start winning series again and you'll wind up where you want to be.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I just took a casual picture after my shower this morning.

I have a good idea for the Twins: Let's sweep those Yankee$ next month! And let's bounce back this weekend in Cleveland.

Are they really going to score 1 run in 3 games?

Who is making you root for all these bad teams? You don't have to you know

If you're going to be disappointed with Thielbar, you should be disappointed with Ryan. I'm annoyed with both. Being mad at players is the right of any true fan, you know this. :p

Also yeah, that was brutal. Just like the playoffs last year. I suppose Kirilloff will make excuses about how the sun was in his eyes or something in the post game. But, he's the son of a coach so he's great with fundamentals!

[Aggies7]

Man, Schmidt just dominated us completely, wonder if he’ll go for the CG? 94 pitches. Absolutely no threat of the twins coming back.

So that is your type, eh? Learning a lot about people, today..........

[cheeseheadgophfan]

I don't know if i've ever seen a game with such soft contact from our hitters.....Correa's double and a bunch of weak grounders and pop-ups.

Twins booting balls like they were playing soccer and swinging out of their shoes on a regular basis.

I was less impressed with the contact during David Well's perfect game.

They’ll be 30-15 in a few minutes. Without their stud pitcher. Easy favorites to win the pennant. Well, if they can win the East over the O’s
