I was giving him another chance after he created a new account (I had muted his previous one), but I just can't. It's better to mute him than continually engage. 

I now have two muted accounts and they are both the same person.

Remember when the twins would have like a 3 run lead in the fifth or sixth inning and we had no hope of the bullpen protecting it? Now that hope reigns supreme!

Pepperidge Farms never forgets

[Patzky]

I was just saying to my dad this game 2 months ago would have been a bullpen meltdown 

[Peter]

Huge important series win!!!

[S Bart]

They may be a 500 team...but they have such a better attitude this year...more smiles and hustle...still has a chance at the wild card

"Walking" being the operative word here.

I think he has 2 losses though and 1 of those in the last series.   He has 1.8 ERA with the Twins,  not much different than Varland with Toronto.   16 saves is pretty huge for the Twins.

They still have a chance for the division. That’s what I would be playing for. The wild cards are definitely more of a crap shoot.

Wow. It was like watching a replay but it was the next batter. Good win. With this pitching staff, the recipe for victory is scoring 8-10 runs a game. 7 will do today.  9-5, 2-5, 7-5. Needs lots of runs.

Bell 72 RBIs..on way to 100,,,ranks 7th in AL

Eh . . . they gave up Rojas and Roden for him.   We gave up cash considerations for ours LOL.

Bell is starting his end of season hot streak as well.   Under the hood though I think his swing velocity has started to decline some this year.  He may get a decent contract next year.

Phading Phillies. 6-4in last 10 games 7-4 in last 11 with today’s loss. 
 

Tanking? Twins 4-6 last 10. 4-7 last 11 with today’s win. 
 

Braves and Padres 7-3 in last 10. Going to need 6+ runs a game. Best just make it 8-10.
