Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted August 25, 2025 Posted August 25, 2025 The inevitable 2nd half decline is happening for Joe Aggies7, IndyTwinsFan and Blyleven2011 3
hitterscount Verified Member Posted August 25, 2025 Posted August 25, 2025 I just can’t take listening to how great these offenses we are facing are, whether it’s the A’s, White Sox, Jays… they are all great…. Should be able to easily get a lineup put together, seems everyone else has. bunsen82 1
IndyTwinsFan Verified Member Posted August 25, 2025 Posted August 25, 2025 I see no way we score at least 4 times this game, which means yet another loss. hitterscount, Parfigliano and Blyleven2011 3
Blyleven2011 Verified Member Posted August 25, 2025 Posted August 25, 2025 I wonder if rocco or front office ever sat down with Ryan after the deadline trades and talked to him about a lost season but he Ryan still had lots to play for , Like a Cy young award .... He definitely hasn't been Joe Ryan since the deadline ..... IndyTwinsFan and bunsen82 1 1

USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted August 25, 2025 Posted August 25, 2025 It'd be easy to be impressed with Scherzer tonight--and honestly he's been pinpoint with location--but then you gotta remember Random Waiver Wire Dude shut down the Twins yesterday in Chicago.

My guess is the hitting is so piecemeal that any pitcher beside Chris Paddack would have an ERA under 3.

Falvey and Rocco have to go…. There needs to be a fresh start next season. Hopefully Toronto feels sorry for us and let’s off by the 5th inning. Cave Bear and bunsen82 1 1
