Twins (Matthews) vs Cubs (Imanaga): 7/19/26, 1:20pm

[Patzky]

It seems the recipe for winning is starting Roden and Gray and the recipe for losing is not to.

Matthews doesn't seemto have an out pitch, to reliant on his fast ball.  

Zebby really needs to have a long chat with Ober on how to pitch for weak contact.  He does not seem to have an out pitch.  If I remember correctly, he never really has had an out pitch.

[Hunter4848]

Allegedly in the middle of a playoff race and of course Buxton can't be bothered to play

[Patzky]

Imanaga has to be puzzled that ball four was the same pitch as strike two

He can ask Ober how to pitch when you're cooked

Saying he sucks ass isn't funny though. The ridiculous optimism is.

He's honorary, I think. 

[wesnewy]

these last two games are not what we needed going into a series against Cleveland. Hopefully the boys can finish with some momentum here

Hopefully he's not in Center much longer. It was a nice catch Friday though.

Shelton will  have him Catching  soon!

He can only play the guys he's given.

Really? Compared to all the starters in baseball? Nah. 

[Vanimal46]

I guess it’s hang Zebby out to dry day. 

[Church of Kreidler]

I remain a helpless optimist!!! Maybe we won’t win today, but I think we’re going to start giving them a run for their money soon!!!

[Mike Sixel]

My second half prediction about game threads is true though....

[Blyleven2011]

I stated a few days ago in another article before games resumed that the twins would win 1 game against cubbies  , if we don't win 3 in Cleveland we are sunk ...

Today is a bad game , see you during a Cleveland series , I'm out of here , can't give these opponents extra outs , runs and bases  ...

[Peter]

Getting rid of SWR was a mistake-time to part ways with zebby-either put him in bullpen or cut ties with him-losing able Pablo and festa was huge blow. Zebby isn’t the answer he’s 🤮💩👎🗑️

[Western SD Fan]

Going into this series.  I was expecting one win.  If we split against Cleveland, that would put us two games off of .500 with the A's and KC coming up.  That still seems doable to be sniffing around at the deadline.

SWR was DFAed by the Jays after the Twins DFAed him I'd say right now Zebby is the better player

[thelanges5]

Another 0-2 hit

Ironic coming from Kreidler's only stan

[wesnewy]

Twins D really showing out now, but still really bad two strike pitch again

[Recognize]

[TMarty]

This is a clinic in taking professional at-bats. Great display of patience by the Cubs.

But there is truth to the statement, sadly.
