So every failing player it is the managers fault, player should file suit.

Lordy what we will here when Culpepper gets whammied by Bigs.

I never said it was all on Shelton.  Below is my original comment.  This comment was more of an indictment on Shelton, you can't play a player every 12 days and then expect them to have a high chance of success when needed.  Just keep giving your thumbs down, that works better for you.

Part of this is on Shelton for not giving him some more opportunities especially when Buxton was hurt.

From Wikipedia: It was during the 1982 season that the Twins' nickname of "Twinkies" truly solidified, a nickname that would haunt them through their World Series years and sneak back into the conversation during the 1990s and 2010s slumps.

Try something new called Google.

The television announcers for the Twins vs. Yankees game today on NBCSN and Peacock are Cory Provus on play-by-play, alongside color analysts Adam Ottavino and Anthony Recke

Google?...WTF is that? Barney Google? Did you know that google was originally called BackRub? I discovered that on Google! 🤣

Did you get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning? Chill out bro and enjoy the game. We're on the verge of taking a series in NY against the evil empire! Ain't that enough for you?

Twinkies okay..in 1982 and today just be careful...twinks ...used previously...today..has a different definition in 2026.. That term has a slang definition..which is inappropriate to call them in my view....anyway...enjoy the game as someone noted

There’s not a reason on earth for Joe not to have the 8th

The butler! No searches since at least May, eh?  😇

The website itself officially retired on May 1, 2026. Parent company IAC shut down the search business completely, ending nearly 30 years of web operation that began in 1996.

Ideally, Ryan for the 8th, Gomez for the 9th

He's approaching 100 pitches.  If he was at 94-95, I'd have him come out for one batter in the 8th before turning it over to Morris.  I'm not so sure now.

I want this team to be the best version they can be for the season not just for one series.

Also, please don't tell me how to react to a game, you don't know me well enough for that.

Now THAT was how a challenge should be used. Good job, Volpe! Significant change in at bat. Saved a poorly called K!

he shouldnt of even went for it -Kreidler had a ezzier play

[UpstateNewYorker]

Awesome start from Joe.  Hopefully the bullpen can cover six outs. 

[mnfireman]

106 pitches, he's probably done...

[Mortimerkenny21]

Way to go Joe Ryan, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience!

One thing I like about this year compared to last year. ..The manager seems to trust the starters more and permits them to remain in the game..up to and over 100 pitches

[Blyleven2011]

I'm out of here , all this crap on freedom of speech and were missing the message here ...

THE TWINS ARE WINNING IN NEW YORK AND THE BOOBIRDS ARE OUT ...

YOU HAVE TO BE HALF CRAZY TO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING OTHER THAN THIS GAME ...

a series win is possible and the boobirds will be very load at the end of the game if twins win ...

could also be some lack of faith in this BP, but it's for sure a BIG change from Rocco.

Glad to hear crickets today from the “head cases” that want to get rid of the now 2 time All-Star, Joe Ryan. And his selection isn’t a mandatory Castro pick.
