Twins (Paddack) vs Reds (Martinez): 6/19/25, 11:40am

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Twins are maximizing efficiency. They didn't even need nine innings to lose last night.

[tony&rodney]

Hey now, the season is long and hope springs eternal. Right?

[tony&rodney]

Almost forgot .... Happy Holiday to all.

Paddack is 2 and 6 in a contract year.

I feel like he has pitched better than that so I expect he dominates today to get the taste of that last start out of his mouth. But I thought that about Ober last night..........

The Twins look like they are a .500 team. 

Just before their 13 game winning streak I said I would be happy if they stopped playing little league ball and were competent, I guess .500 is competent and I have not seen a pitcher throw a ball into right field instead of to the first baseman for a while. Counting outs in an inning not withstanding. (Castro)

I like the lineup. I think it's the best they can do with their roster vs. a RH pitcher. Get some walks and bunch some hits, score seven or more and let Paddack cruise.

[Peter]

Need this win to get back to.500 and go on long winning streak!!!

[Peter]

Buxton 3 in a row home runs!!! Let’s get this win!!!

[Parfigliano]

Oh good Cuzzi behind the plate

[mrtwinsfan]

Buck==Again

[Peter]

These 2 out runs needs to stop ASAP!!!

[Vanimal46]

Can’t have a lead for a single inning. Demoralizing 

[MMMordabito]

Yet another 2-out run given up in June.

[MMMordabito]

Paddack is just picking up where he left off last game.

Yes it does.

Are we sure this isn't just a replay of yesterday's game?  Buck leadoff homer, give up two in the bottom half, defeated looking Twins pitcher with long hair, Reds pitcher named Nick

[CRF]

Paddack had a nice stretch of games, but his last start...and so far this one...are probably more indicative of what he is. We better score some runs somehow, because we're gonna need it.

... and Elly do nothing for your fantasy team ... It's just a lose/lose proposition.

[RpR]

Who do you think will reach the Mendoza line first, Wallner or Vazquez?

[Peter]

[MMMordabito]

Back-to-Back Buck Bomb!!!  

[Peter]

I'm not ready to address the emotional trauma Elly has wrought upon me these past 18 hours

[MMMordabito]

The Sheriff delivered the zero.  Baby steps, I guess.
