Astros (Dublin) v Twins (López); 7/5/24 @ 7:10pm CT

[Aggies7]

Can’t waste so many chances. Lead gone in a blink

[Parfigliano]

Another bad Pablo game

[Shaitan]

I feel like Alcala starts with a clean inning break more often than inheriting runners. 

Test time.

[IndyTwinsFan]

Looks like the bad Pablo appeared for the 6th inning. 

At least 4 earned runs in 5+ innings.  Yet another poor stat line.  AARGH.

Those two playoff performances will always give him a high bar to pitch to for a lot of people

Been seeing a lot of those lately.  Definitely not good.

[Aggies7]

Just one miscue after another tonight

[Tlaker]

Offs

By Post Season it will have been worked out.

Now really poor stats Pablo

[Shaitan]

Sorry everyone. I tuned back it after the Miranda double after tuning out during the HOU second inning rally. 

For your sake, I'll sign out again.

I accept full responsibility.

Houston is playing really good ball. They don't beat themselves right now or lose at the margins.

This is almost always the story when they lose. Losing at the margins. It's why they're good but won't be great.

[thelanges5]

Bottom of the order, getting it done for them tonight too💩

[Aggies7]

Alcala just refuses to take grasp of the higher leverage roles. No matter how many chances he’s given 

[RpR]

Maybe it is because the Twins are wearing their thrift store uniforms again.

For all of you who have trashed the Front Office, those uniforms mean you are 100 percent correct.

And, for the most part, he's not even coming close to matching it in most of his starts.  With an ERA well north of 5, that's almost 5th starter territory.  Not good at all!

2-0 in these uniforms.

Alcala is brutal when he’s not on

Alvarez can end this game here.

[TwinsCD]

Rocco going into his brain-dead with managing the pitching situation tonight.  As much as I dislike Okert, how is he not in here vs Alvarez?

That is no excuse for looking like some thing from the X-files.

[Aggies7]

Need that call

Because Alvarez kills lefties

We need to take it when we can get it

[Parfigliano]

Have to come back again.  Its hard to do when one of your hitters is really a pitcher with the bat.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Rally time. 

[USAFChief]

Chalk up another wasted AB from Vazquez to Rocco.

Worse yet, we can't use a DH for him.
