Twins (Ober/Lopez) vs White Sox (Fedde/Thorpe): 7/10/24, 1:10pm/TBD

[Peter]

Hate to say this but don’t think twins can bounce back from this. Worse time possible to go into losing streak right before all star break 

[thelanges5]

2 quick outs and then…

[USAFChief]

Lopez really struggling to put hitters away.

 

[Peter]

This is why I hate the big city national media-every time twins do great this what happens. Rocco needs to tell them to F off and stay away from team!

[Mortimerkenny21]

Thank goodness for Mendick.

Sure be nice to show any sign of life at the plate or all the complaints about Lopez are moot. But you're right. Not only poor control but not fooling anyone with his pitch choices. Seriously wonder if tipping happens.

73 pitches through 4. Maldonado leads off the next inning.

Yeah I hate this musical chairs stuff with all the broadcasters. Whatever you want to say about Dick and Bert, fine. Same with gladden and Cory. But at least you knew who would be on when you tuned in

I'm ok with rotating analysts, mostly because I'm not really that happy with any of them. 

And Provus deserves a few days off. No gripe from me on that. I just don't think Marny has done well as a stand in.

[Mike Sixel]

Farmer starting at 2B.....after Margot starts against a righty. People need to stop defending these two being on the roster for "platoon" reasons.....

Relax. We have a one game losing streak with a half game to play.

Cory and Glen are fine IMO. Isn’t the all star break like 5 days now? Odd time for time off

[Patzky]

Jeffers.. looks lost

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Thorpe has struggled with his command prior to today. Twins need to make him throw strikes. Be patient.

They seemed to be pressing in game 1 as well. 

[USAFChief]

Y'know, Ryan, it'd be easier for us fanboys to argue for more time behind the plate if you'd ******* DO SOMETHING once in a while.

[Aggies7]

That first inning of game 1 was the omen of all omens

It's baseball. It happens but sometimes there's also just really bad losses and being swept here would be that and then some. 

[Peter]

I hope that won’t screw us rest of road trip. This is bad!!! Only 1 hit!!!   Seriously!!!!
