That was that guy's 3rd grand slam this year.

Because they stank there.

Were they any different than last season, no they weren't.  This is on the front office and Shelton, they could have made the same moves in spring training, this was a knee jerk reaction because the coaching staff couldn't work with them.

Thanks Royce. Thanks Caratini. Great job. This should have been inning over and 3-0 lead !!!!!!!!!

It is not all Lewis as Ryan is sputtering, but Lewis screw up was a Major problem.

Lewis screw-up was an ENORMOUS failure.

[Tlaker]

Joe Ryan as trade bait is completely silly…

he is a throw in 

[tarheeltwinsfan]

This was the worst inning I have ever seen Joe Ryan pitch. UGLY.

None of this is on Ryan… should have been out of the inning 15 pitches ago without a run…. 

Joe is allowed to tap his head also

[Bracky]

How on earth does Caratini not challenge a close pitch that could end an inning?

[Twindy]

Joe brought most of this on himself. I think his theatrics rallied Houston. Some of his experience stuff comes off as trying to show them up.

At least Altuve knows when to challenge. Teammates letting Ryan down big time!

Joe could have challenged also.. he's not Ohtani but .

[hitterscount]

This inning is classic Twins baseball, just a joke on defense and Carantini not challenging a strike to end the inning…. Who pays, the SP. Trade Ryan to a team that can play the right way.

The boxscore and Ryan's ERA disagree.

He does not seem to handle pressure very well.

I feel comfortable putting a pitch that lands on the wrong side of the outfield fence on the pitcher

You’re kidding i hope. Lewis botches a inning ending DP and Carantini sits on the 3rd strike to end the inning.

Because he knew it was not a strike.

4 more innings.

Feel bad for the poor team that trades for Ryan to get lit up in the postseason against a good lineup like he always does

ABS calling accurate balls and strikes all the time fixes all these outcomes that change every game in difference to the players actual performance. The players should be the human element only.

Did it sound like I was kidding? Mistakes happen in games Joe made several that inning also.

1 or more teams in the AL West is gonna figure it out and go on a run. Could be Houston once again

Except it would have been a strike….

They showed the ABS and it was!!

[amjgt]

Should Caratini have challenged it? Yes.

But the pitch went inside and he was set up outside, so he wasn’t in a great spot to know if it was a strike.

But with your pitcher scuffling and a chance to get out of the inning, you HAVE to challenge, even if you think it’s kind of a low probability of success

No one likes talking about it… But this is the time where 2nd half Joe shows up. No where close to the excitement 1st half Joe provides.
