I don't know either, hasn't shown much this year.

 now we have no LH for higher leverage opportunities later in the game.  Quit trying to match up every AB, it is not winning baseball.--  Funderbrook

Who threw 40 ptiches yesterday, do you really think he is available.

Adams might work as a one inning reliever with his stuff ramped up for short outings, but he's yet another "pipeline" member who isn't cut out to be a major league starter. And yet they continue to try to get these guys to work as starters when it is apparent that it won't.

We have seen why Brooks Lee is a third baseman the last couple of games (really all season). His athleticism just doesn't work at second base. Poor guy even hits better when he plays on the other side of the field.

Fortunately the Twins are going to score 10 runs today.

I wish him the best but I was at Target Field when he made his debut. I saw nothing to get excited about. Pitches sounded soft, contact hits sounded loud. As Terry Ryan said, somebody has to pitch the innings.

Game over ....

Lead off homer by nationals...

Adam's won't get the lose now ...

Sands gave up a leadoff homerun to start the game , I made an ass out of myself by saying Adam's wouldn't get the loss today ...

Boy was I wrong  ...

Doesn't matter when these pitchers come into the game ( starting or relief ),  it's the 5th inning jinx that seems to be the death of pitchers  ...

The "pipeline" is starting to look more like a garden hose with holes in it.

I wish I knew the answer for why I keep bothering with this so-called team year in and year out.  Stumbling, bumbling, and just general incompetence being exhibited through most games while seemingly just going through the motions does not make for anything close to an enjoyable viewing experience. 

Makes me glad that I decided beforehand to not even turn on this game.

Somebody should get fired today - Rockies and nationals going 4-2 against you is inexcusable - like span said on the broadcast this team looks like they have no fire 

Agreed, but it probably won't happen.

I turned it on for half an inning and that was all I could take.

Congrats!  You apparently have far more tolerance than I have.
