Great baseball being played and big moments taking place.  Jorge Polanco has always been tough when it mattered. Two home runs against the best pitcher in the American League is an amazing day. M

What a game. Entire postseason has been largely great

It is really hard to win playoff games against big time pitching when you rely primarily on stringing together multiple hits in multiple innings to score multiple runs. It's why homers win in the play

Seattle gets first blood , Crawford let two of those high pitches go by , mize comes back with same pitch in a pitchers count and gets him to  chase  , good call by someone ...

A.J. Hinch just played right into Seattle ,  Mize was fine 3 innings 1 run ---- cant count on every Relief pitcher being perfect ----  Tigers are the Twins =  ZERO HITTING

Number #1 overall pick, finally having his best season…. Nope! Let’s turn it over to our struggling bullpen LOL

Y'all think Rocco is the worst manager, now we've got every manager in the playoffs doing things that seem stupid to us. There's no way we hire a manager who's going to make us happy. This is baseball now, like it or not.

There's been some bad managers yes , but Rocco being the twins manager just kept frustrating the diehard fans when he wouldn't deviate from the daily plan , it's just so hard to get used to this kind of baseball that just doesn't seem to work with this organization  ....

Pinch hitting Margot everytime he needed a right handed hitter is proof he and Falvey's plan wasn't working , platooning hitters in the past , he gave lefthanders alittle more leeway this season  , but not against real good lefthanders  ...

Not stealing bases because Rocco said we weren't a team with speed  , and the runners started to prove him wrong after the deadline stealing bases and making the games more exciting  ...

That beautiful bunt that Clemens did to score the runner from third was Clemens idea , he confessed he did not call it , ut was a perfectly placed bunt ... 

Bunting alitte bit more after the deadline  when we had a speedy player on third and less than 2 outs ....

What took so long to finally change thing up just a bit to make the game more interesting , even if we lose , it was more of an effort from the players to try and win  ....

I'm on board with firing him, he had it coming, I'm commenting on how some are questioning the moves of managers currently in the playoffs and how from my perspective it seems to be more of a disdain of the state of modern baseball. Managers are pulling their starters in the 4th inning and guys like Varland are starting games... and these are the playoff teams.

A year ago AJ Hinch was everyone's managerial darling, now he's a dumdum cuz he looked at a computer, or something
