If Ober is hurt why is he pitching??

[Patzky]

To his credit and our detriment Bailey's off the mat for more

Two outs nobody on, they manage to get 4 runs. Bases loaded no one out with our 1, 2,3 hitters.... nothing. We are playing some really putrid baseball. Houston might just take back to .500

This is who the Twins are. The winning streak was nice and kept them afloat but this isn't a very good baseball team.

Still think it's mental as anything with him. Pablo lite.

Can we not get our manager to manufacture something, anything, out of bases-loaded-less-than-2-outs situations?  Absolutely demoralizing.

Now did you really want Buck to bunt..

Ober just not good! Thought he was better than this. Twins never recovered from A’s/seattle losses

Can we not get our hitters to have an at-bat without both hands wrapped around their necks?

[Patzky]

Is it really only the third inning...

Just killer that our 1,2 and 3 batters in that situation can’t get anything of substance done.

The gag reflex. First them then us.

[Western SD Fan]

Does anyone here notice that it seems the Twins pitchers collectively relax after two outs and then can't ramp back up when they get into trouble?

he not hurt, but Twins will make up a ????  for a 2 week vacation  to get his HEAD Right

Dan Hayes article about Ober and other things today for the Athletic. He mentioned mechanics being off as well as knee/hip discomfort.

Similarly our bats relax when there are zero outs and can't ramp back up when needed..

I hope you're not surprised by this.  I know that I'm not.

So when will the Twins decide if they are sellers at the trade deadline?

I'm just frustrated with our hitters.  I know the other pitcher is a paid professional, but we are absolutely terrible in these situations.  Force some things to be different with a squeeze play every now and then.  And no, I would want Buxton to hit away in that situation with us trailing by 5.  Jeffers strikeout makes me angry; just put the ball in play!

Jeffers is another head case sometimes. Fans wanting to dump Vazquez really need to stop with that. We'd be a much worse team

Buck and c.c. did but the wind kept the ball in the park

Oh I’m not surprised in the slightest. It unfortunately does not change my sadness and disgust

Agreed. I think Vasquez was a large component of Festa having a pretty good outing yesterday.
