Letting Vazquez hit is unreal. Truly mind boggling.

I gave up tryin to figure Rocco long ago

Damn, strike 2 was the pitch to clobber 

[mrtwinsfan]

Up the ladder at 98. Even Jeffers won't get that one.

In that situation it might have been worth considering.

[Patzky]

I gotta say I think Farmer punched his ticket out of here today. Maybe that HBP will hurt a lot more tomorrow..

Bat Vasquez or PH and lose DH in the 8th inning with guys on 1st and 2nd 0 outs down 4 runs?

I PH.

I think this is now my favorite four word phrase. At least until another good one comes along.

 

(and not sure i can shed light on any managing decision either)

[Patzky]

I will say the BP use was correct and effective today, assuming Staumont finishes the last batters here..

[Parfigliano]

Staumont solid inning again

[sampleSizeOfOne]

9th inning... All or nothing time.

Or bunt. 

[Patzky]

Hader has been shaky, and the Twins hit him well last year at Target.

He's who we wanted Topa to be.

Every time. You don't need the DH if you don't score more runs...

[Patzky]

Buxton picked the wrong direction..

[Parfigliano]

Astro's scored 6 runs in these 2 games all via HR

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh well. Maybe next time....

I wish I could be so relaxed about my Twins….. I am older than the franchise is, so have seen it all.. I hope so too
