  1. Maybe that is Sano's weight loss strategy - walks to the mound builds his steps up
  2. Sorry, a hit is a hit but I can't get too excited over anything Logan Shafer does
  3. Good to see Berrios work his way out of that jam. Hopefully a confidence builder.
  4. Speaking of positivity we can't lose any more games after today! Going to enjoy this last game - Buxton homering is a nice way to start it off!
  5. And so endeth another game and loss 102.
  6. Very team oriented - all the relievers like taking a turn to give up runs at key times.
  7. The usual 2016 meltdown we have come to expect!
  8. This is a Groundhog Day of a season - every game seems to play out the same in a loss. What is the positive lesson in removing a young pitcher 1 out away from a 5 inning start and a possible win - how does that build his confidence? Playing and batting Logan Shafer 5th - How can the new regime look at this manager and possibly keep him?
  9. We really have seen too much of Logan Shafer for my liking lately. Can't believe he is batting 5th.
  10. I like the hire - hope he does get named this week so we can start on the reconstruction as soon as possible. I love baseball but I have never been so ready for a season to be over.
  11. Seems to be a rule that we have to leave 2 runners on each inning.
  12. Trying to make up my mind if I want Grossman on the team next year. Pretty good OBP - horrible defense. Would make a good part-time DH and PH but we seem to have plenty of those.
  13. Looks like no one wants to talk about the Twins losing their 100th game. lol!
  14. Agree! My low point may be a tie between the 13 game losing streak and this series with Detroit at home. The 13 game streak because before that we had moved the young guys in and we were playing respectable maybe on pace to hit 70 wins and then the bottom fell out with that losing streak removing any optimism for the future. This Detroit series was just embarrassing from their effort or lack thereof - not being competitive. Certain players have quit on the season and I get it they were eliminated in April but it is still a matter of pride in your performance. This would not happen if there was strong leadership either from a veteran player or stronger manager. If this does not change I don't expect any different results next year.
  15. If the embarrassment of this team's performance this year does not motivate him and the rest of the guys who return then I am not sure anything will.
  16. Ending the season like we began it - losing and striking out a lot
  17. At 2-2 I was wondering how we would choose to lose. Bullpen blowup, Keystone cops defense or failed bunt attempt. Maybe all of the above.
  18. Instead of "let's play two" for us it's "let's lose two" - any chance of rain tonight?
  19. OK, it was 3-2 going to the top of the 9th and I had to get on a conference call for work - I come back and it is 9-2 ballgame. This team is unbelievably horrid and unwatchable. Can't execute basic plays - don't they have some pride?
  20. Polanco delivers - with Kepler and Sano coming up - battling for who can have the higher batting average by the end of the year.
