Is it true Buxton is still on the bench?

[jaimedude]

Twins have been  pure ass all season with RISP. 1 for 12 last year.  Been a struggle for two years straight.  We should bunt just to anno them

[Vanimal46]

The 2025 Twins won game 136. They could be roaring back to be 2 games behind the 2026 Twins.

He's like a dog that chases cars on that low-and-away slider. Never seems to learn from failure.

That was Torii Hunter's weak spot too. Swinging at pitches he couldn't reach with a canoe paddle.

We were No. 1 in the league until a month or so ago. But I’d bet we’re easily in the bottom 3 over the last six weeks - when it’s mattered the most.

I've heard it previously on here and not really listened.  Does Morneau actually provide one thing other than a voice on a broadcast.  Seems like a great guy but wow...

I believe so. He and Jackson represent the latest version of wasted opportunity in Twinville.

He makes his point, then he makes it again. And then he makes it again. And then he makes it again. Just changes the words a little each time.

It wouldn't have mattered if they weren't that to begin with.....

Many people warned it was not sustainable.....

It's truly unreal at this point. Like they are mocking us.

[Saxophone Joe]

You can feel it now: this team (and the sleepy crowd) wants out. 

[jaimedude]

5 pitches that inning to get three outs.Twins offense is a pumpkin in Twinsville. White Sox have 3 hits and look like they will win.  Twins bats yelling uncle. Feels like we are down 3 runs or more.  Three game losing streak gonna balloon to 5.

Never. Walk him every time. It causes less damage.

Minter is doing his part to get there... 

[Vanimal46]

There goes the challenges 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

With runners on, i retract my desirre to see him thrown out at home.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Wel done, Culpepper!

Phew. When roughly 20 of your 26 man roster is playing like crap,  it’s hard to win ball games. Trying to think about when the last time it was fun to watch this team play. Been a while.

Also doesn't help when 1 of your 26 never plays and another is injured but still counts as 1 of the 26.

Twins ownership ahould be fined bonus pool money or face a penalty for this. Two consecutive years of this crap.

I see Jenkins swiped a bag.

Might have made the difference in turning a couple of losses to wins if they had brought him up earlier

Lee

Clemens

Bell

Lewis

Larnach

These guys do NOT strike fear in pitchers' hearts as our #2-#6 hitters. 

[thelanges5]

Heading towards same or worse record as last year minus the fire sale. That’s nuts.
