Soto looked surprised to cut off that sharp single by Castro.

[David HK]

I dunno.

Which one of these would you rather have back? 🤔

Playoffs this team isn't makong the playoffs with holes in line-up and lack of rotation depth. Too streaky of a team prone to long losing streaks that snowball. Kepler with his pants around ankles throwing home and overthrowing catcher. Just gross baseball all three  games. Walks walks and more walks. No consistency in rotation. 

Gettin' major Jim Mora vibes right now... 🤣

[Aggies7]

This game has the pace of cold peanut butter

Can I choose Neither of the Above and get Luis Gil back?

Stroman is pitching poorly.

Twins are consistent in this statistic runners in scoring position anyways.  Yankees are good, but Twins crawl up in fetal position playing these guys. It's a lame movie on repeat. 

[Aggies7]

The schedule is going to lighten up after tonight and we’re all going to be tricked again 

[ashbury]

Thanks Vazquez.

[Aggies7]

Embarrassing

[SotaSports in NM]

Just tuning in now, what's been up with Pablo and the walks??

[Dave The Dastardly]

I'm going to find a paper bag... not sure if I should cut eye holes in it or barf in it.

[Aggies7]

They can’t still be doing the Pablo Day shirts and stuff are they

[Patzky]

Now the defense is falling apart..

Don't do both.

Voice of experience? I'm not saying.

jamiedude says we're lame

[SotaSports in NM]

On a positive note, I'm getting pretty psyched about our city connect jerseys...

Sure they are. They are still doing selfies and tossing the ridiculous meat around, aren't they? Oh course they will. It is that kind of self indulgence that brings the arrogance to, as a team, including Lopez, to keep throwing meat down the middle on 0-2 counts.

Lame movie on repeat Twins play in Yankee stadium. They are really good but Twins turn into minor league gaffe artist and mistakes galore against these dudes. Some of this is self inflicted, especially throwing to wrong base, or overthrown throws. 

[ashbury]

Well, going to have to depart now, and attend to some more pleasant activities.  There's this root canal I've been putting off....

[jaimedude]

Not like Stroman is pitching that great.

As much as I hate that, every team does the silly stuff anymore. “Back in my day” you at least had to have some clout before you acted like that. But then the worst team in the league couldn’t have a home run celebration.

but really what do you do with the Pablo day stuff? Just stop mentioning it and hope it withers away on its own?

[David HK]

Just checked in on my 2nd team, the Cubbies.

Got to listen to the Cubs announcers gushing all over that young hitter Spencer Steer.

So, there's that.

[Aggies7]

First boneheaded mistake the Yankees have made all series

Do both, but flip a coin for the order.

I hate it more, and can hardly stand the thought of it when they’re playing well and firing on all cylinders. They’re miles from that and with this roster and coach I don’t see it coming around in a meaningful way this year. I’m allowing the reality of a 3rd place finish to sink in.

Let's go Santanna. Tie this up please!
