He'll test your math. 

I was half right.  He gave up 4 runs.  My timing was off in thinking he could get through 3 innings.

Shouldn't worry about pitch count with him.

 

But Orze is up so it's a moot point.

Frying pan, meet fire.

Okay. I’m trying to think of a Twins pitcher with worse control. Samuel Deduno comes to mind but I think he had considerably better control than this guy. 

sam was bad  but this guy ,  alot worse

[Permanent Twins Fan]

Justin Lawrence is the three true outcomes pitcher. Walks, Strikeouts, and Home Runs.

Probably will release him....

Can there be a recording of Gordon Ramsey chasing people of the kitchen that is given to Lawrence.  Just get out! Out!

[jaimedude]

Lawrence has to be one of the bottom five all time pitchers to ever wear a Twins uniform. He is awful. No free jerseys or gloves either, send him home on a commercial flight. Nothing redeeming about any of his appearances. Kick him out of the team hotel. 

[S Bart]

Now it is starting to feel like a football score

[Aggies7]

Gonna have to use the closer in a game we were up 16-2 aren’t we

[S Bart]

Shelton should take the ball and throw it at him

Nah.  Shelton likely has better control.  He may actually hit him.

"Closer" should be in ironic quotes.

We better recover this onside kick

Yep. Hidden cost of having guys like him in the pen. Should have been a laugher and now we are going through our pen to finish the game. 

[Tlaker]

Lawrence….. 40 pitches and only 17 strikes!

[Church of Kreidler]

Now wait, guys, let’s give Lawrence some credit!

He has managed to make me look back fondly on Garcia…

[Tlaker]

Bullpen still has 6 outs to go!!

His first 10 pitches he only threw 2 strikes, so 17/40 was progress.  

[thelanges5]

I hope Zoll and Tom are either there or watching this debacle and make the right decision tomorrow morning.

He knows he is gone pitching in this situation. I don't want him in St Paul, he needs to be outrighted out of organization. 

[Church of Kreidler]

Dang, we’ve sent a team to position pitchers twice in a week!

So, you do not think he could do well against the Dodgers on Monday?

Twins signed him ,   cant blame Lawrence ,  -- ?  who wouldnt take a few weeks of the  Show with all the Perks ,   nah fellas   this is what dumpster diving gets us ,   needs to change 

[S Bart]

37,5...I can hit that speed at 70 years old

[Permanent Twins Fan]

I doubt it was intentional, but I do appreciate the D-Backs leaving off the position player until after Fedko batted letting him get a chance for his first hit off a real pitcher. 

[mrtwinsfan]

this is insane for Baseball,        

[thelanges5]

Wow, good effort against the position player there boys

Agree...wonder if they have set a team record on the number of relievers used

[Linus]

I hate the position player pitching thing. It’s a joke especially when every team has 13 pitchers.

I’m sorry, but I don’t think he would do well against Buck’s Little League team.
