I read about the group led by Morneau and Mauer buying the team but I don’t think either one made that much in their playing days to do it. Reminds me of Major League 2 where Roger Dorn couldn’t afford payroll by July 

I'd imagine M&M would be figureheads in such a deal, with nearly all the money coming from one or more real investors.

This bullpen is trash. I mean, I didn't expect anything from them as they are all AAA guys but it's hard to think this team realistically has a chance close games. 

Can the Twins send down or DFA this Kriske guy? I think we've seen enough of his little "audition". 

[Vanimal46]

This reliever stinks 

[Patzky]

Got close but you just knew..

[thelanges5]

Waiver wire bullpen. Shoot. 

[Aggies7]

Surprised the guy that played a couple years in Japan isn’t great 

[Patzky]

Mound visits came five minutes too late.

No, that was John Grisham

Seriously why are the Twins playing a 31 year-old journeyman who has a lifetime 8.13 ERA in 28 games pitched? 

Is it all about not wasting service time on a young guy or what? 

[Aggies7]

Should put Roden in to pitch.

These aren't the Royals. Someone should have told him

[Aggies7]

Baldelli, please take this pitcher now.   Please stop checking on excel spreadsheet.   

[AceWrigley]

Infield in, really?

[CRF]

As usual...thanks Rocco. 

[Vanimal46]

Sounds about right for Judge to get a hit off our random waiver wire guy 

[mnfireman]

Who takes Kriske's spot after he is DFA'd tomorrow??

[Twindy]

Kriske Kreamed

[Aggies7]

Cripes I would have rather seen blunderburk instead of that bum

[Doc Lenz]

Don’t think the great one could have managed this any better. Kudos to him.

Should have stopped at one out from Kriske

They took the top 5 relievers out of the pen. 

No team in baseball has 5 MLB ready relievers sitting around AAA waiting for bullpen Armageddon. 

[David HK]

Heh...  consistency rears its ugly head again.

Somebody said the other day that the Twinkies BP now seems just like a bunch of guys you went to high school with.  Yep, pretty much.

 

[RpR]

Lee is not a SS, his range numbers at Baseball Ref. confirm that .

[tony&rodney]

We all knew to expect this outcome late in games. This isn't the last time.

[Blyleven2011]

Infield in , judge smokes one past fielders another run scores ...

With no outs , wouldn't you think you'd play for a double play and give up the run , now no outs

But I’ve read that it’s really easy to build a bullpen
