The offense is fine? Have you seen the batting averages of the lineups these days. Low .200s or less except for a couple players..... It certainly isn't "fine", and could be a ton better, especially if they are to compete for the playoffs. -
I like Colume a lot better than I like Colome.
-
Anytime you win a game with only 4 hits...... you have to be thankful.
-
Why not? What else does a Twins fan have to get excited about? May as well revel in what is there when it is there without bringing the vibe down.
-
Might be going to the Colome well to often now.......
-
Calls Rooker Brett instead of Brent. You would think he would know a Twins player's name.
-
What would have happened if Polanco actually ran hard the whole time instead of jogged past first base?
-
Not unless they change the rule again. July 30 is it. https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/cubs/2021-mlb-trade-deadline-dates-key-info-and-top-targets

If Colome pitched like that at the beginning of the season, we would still have Berrios and Cruz on the team. Saved one for Jax. ATTABOY! He deserves it..... tonight.
-
Pinch me!
-
At least there are no inherited runners.......
-
Well, too bad that Astudillo didn't just do that and Polanco could pinch hit for Kepler.
-
Arraez is due for a dinger, right? Both called strikes missed the plate. Wrong on both sides of the plate.
-
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
We need at least one more run!
-
WOW! Who needs rain, eh?
-
They did. He started 14 games this year for St. Louis. Pitched in 25. 2019 and 2020 was in the pen , no starts.
-
Can the DH be moved to 3rd for defensive play and the team just lose the DH?
-
Baldelli finally moved Kepler down in the order tonight, but I guess .165 isn't low enough to move Rooker out of the 2 hole.
-
.297 2020 Simmons showed up at the game tonight!
-
SWEET!!
-
Twins Mascot is at the plate.
-
Green light Sano!!!
-
The only kind of hit Rooker can get these days.

Ahhhh, stats. My point basically was, without wasting the time to look it up and going from memory, was that for much of the season they were barely a .500 team. So I did waste the time to see how much I misremembered. On August 5, after a quick start, and they were 10-2. 8 games over .500 On August 2`1 they were 17-10, 7 games over. On August 29th, they were 20-14, 6 games over, and passed by both Chicago and Cleveland. On August 31 they were 20-16, 4 games over. On September 10 they were 27-18, 9 games over. On September 18 they were 31-22, 9 games over, and still 3 games behind Chicago. On September 23, they were 35-22, and a season high 13 games over .500, and back in the division lead by .5 game. On September 27, and the short season end, they were 36-24, 12 games over .500, and barely won the division by 1 game over Cleveland and Chicago. Soooooooooooo, the point was, without looking up the exact dates and records, that they were barely a .500 team after a fast start. From August 5 to September 27, they were barely a .500 team, with much of it a below .500 team. They gained a total of 4 games on .500 from August 5 to September 27. Sorry I misrembered the dates a little bit. I think we both have found stats to back up our points. Gotta love statistics eh? And that was some fine snark - "but I don't recall September occurring before August." Well played.
