    This was more terrible postseason managing. Not only did he not run, but he took out the only hitter on the team that has done anything in a game that might have ended up tied.
  2. Battle ur tail off
    Surprising, he pulled off that pitch again too. Gotta keep that head down and front side in. Think left center. Come on Polanco!
  3. Battle ur tail off
    OK, should be fine. Rocco, don't you dare pull him. He was cruising until the last little bit here. You don't have the horses out there to go the rest of the way.
  4. Battle ur tail off
    6-3
  5. Battle ur tail off
    See this is the difference. They get runners on, they score. You have to find a way in the playoffs
  6. Battle ur tail off
    Front side is flying open way too soon. This should have been a fairly easy fix for a hitting coach.
  7. Battle ur tail off
    Polanco is just not staying on the ball right now. He's pulling off it bigtime...
  8. Battle ur tail off
    Bulldog on the mound today. He's got it. This is looking like a good day for Jose.
  9. Battle ur tail off
    Hit the ball fairly hard. But that is a tough spot for a rookie to make his first AB. Either way, it's another HUGE missed opportunity that likely lowered their spirits. Need a shutout today from Berrios.
  10. Battle ur tail off
    Flat out have to make the E hurt.
  11. Battle ur tail off
    Jose 'gun bring it today.
  12. Battle ur tail off
    Sure. And he misses a zillion games a year. I will take back my pansy statement and call him made of glass. He gets hurt more than anyone in Twins history and it's not close. This time, maybe it's his head. Fine, I get it. Either way, he's on the bench more than on the field.
  13. Battle ur tail off
    I agree. Definitely not overreactions. On Arraez. That's a tough play. He's coming from one side of 2nd and the ball goes to the other. It was a terrible, inexcusable error for Polanco IMO. Go back and rewatch it. He was trying to look pretty. It was BS and most 6th or 7th grade kids make that play without issue. Over the course of the season, these things happen. But in the playoffs, they flat out CANNOT. You have to focus and make the easy play there.

    Yes, if it is concussion related, then you are right. I also happen to think that Donaldson's injury is a serious one. How many times over the years have the Twins come out and said how such and such an injury wasn't serious and then a month later the player is scheduled for Tommy John? I just don't see Donaldson sitting out over a bruise a strained muscle.
  15. Battle ur tail off
    Buxton has to be hurt though, right? If not, I REALLY, REALLY don't understand this decision. He is supposed to be one of, if not the best player on this team and he isn't starting a playoff game?
  16. Battle ur tail off
    Mid level picks. Cheap signings, never trading for top talent, being safe. This all leads to good regular season teams. But when it's your studs vs their studs, the Twins continually fall short. At some point they need to identify guys that can get it done in the postseason.
  17. Battle ur tail off
    The most infuriating thing to me was letting a bad Greinke yesterday away with only 1 run given up. He was not good yesterday and we couldn't get to him. Also, besides the terrible hitting, when it came down to it, errors and walks lost this game for them. I was extremely frustrated by Polanco's error on that throw. He had all day, could have went to first if he wanted, etc. Instead he trys to make the throw moving backwards to try and look fancy and it results in a loss. Field the ball, step and throw. This is little league level fundamentals.
  18. Battle ur tail off
    Cruz hit the ball hard 2 times. One was a run scoring double. The other one was a hard line drive. He's the only one that looked worth a crap at the plate yesterday IMO.
  19. Battle ur tail off
    Wow, no Buxton. Also starting a rookie that has never even seen a major league pitch. I don't know what to say. I will say though that so far, Rocco has shown to be a terrible postseason manager thus far.
  20. Battle ur tail off
    You should know by now its more than calf pain. He will be having surgery this offseason. You can take that to the bank. This is the classic Twins downplay of an injury to not piss people off or give up their hand. He will not be back this season if they advance. Book it.
  21. Battle ur tail off
    I mean, no, not really. But an even AA performance at the plate today and take that error away and it's a W without question. Even with the terrible hitting, our starter and bullpen basically gave up 1 run in 9 innings. This game is on the pathetic hitting and that humongous lazy style point error by Polanco.
  22. Battle ur tail off
    Especially when the Astros are playing terrible themselves. Grienke was terrible today and the Twins didn't make him pay at all. They also are very weak offensively and we give them runs with Walks and Errors.
  23. Battle ur tail off
    100%, he candy-assed it moving backward all sloppy and cocky-like. Take a step towards the damn base and throw a strike. You don't get style points in the postseason. Step and throw.
  24. Battle ur tail off
    Yep. A E and a walk to seal the loss. No wonder they can never win in the postseason.
  25. Battle ur tail off
    There are only 2 guys that have any chance of saving this game for us. One is up to bat right now and the other is Sano. It will take a solo HR to win this one.
