    Lewis is looking straight up and can't yet see the Mendoza line.

    I won't be watching because I refuse to pay for yet another streaming service. Very frustrating.
  3. LewFordLives
    Apart from being a questionable trade, the Varland trade was just awful PR. You don't trade a good, controllable, hometown pitcher.
  4. LewFordLives
    Infield in with no outs? Looks like it didn't matter.
  5. LewFordLives
    A couple more appearances and Garcia will disappear back into the void from which he came.
  6. LewFordLives
    That made my day.
  7. LewFordLives
    It's probably best that you didn't.
  8. LewFordLives
    "Garcia" warming up. Who the hell is that? Are they having tryouts in the middle of the game?
  9. LewFordLives
    Not that Sands has been great, but his loss is definitely a blow to a bullpen that really doesn't have any reliable arms.

    I lived it. I feel your pain. Here's the thing with R.D. He was used A LOT. The Twins bullpen as a whole was terrible. There were no established 7th or 8th inning guys. They just pieced it together until they got to R.D. and he was frequently called upon to pitch more than one inning, From 1982-1984 he threw at least 80 innings for the Twins, including 1982 when he threw 106 innings. You would never see that today. By 1984 and 1985 I think the dude was just flat out spent.

    I wonder if it's more to do with the type of pitchers they target. They seem to prefer hard throwers that throw lots of sliders.
  12. LewFordLives
    I wasn't blaming anyone for anything. Call it just really bad luck if you want, but this organization just can't seem to catch a break. This certainly has the potential to change the outlook from that trade. It seems like every move they make turns to ash.

    You can't pretend that there's no difference between an oblique strain (Duran) and elbow inflammation (Abel). One is a stint on the DL and the other has potentially career altering implications.
  14. LewFordLives
    Of course he's hurt. It's the Twins. Yet another trade that blows up in their faces. Unbelievable.
  15. LewFordLives
    100 percent agree. He was unable to locate his breaking pitches and the Reds were just sitting on his fastball, which he inevitably had to throw because he was always behind in the count.

    " In Sunday's series finale, manager Derek Shelton tried to get a two-inning save from rookie Andrew Morris, who went to pieces in the second of those frames, giving up three runs to flip the score in the top of the ninth." No. Morris went to pieces in both of those two innings. He was not fooling anybody and labored to get through the eighth. The big question is why did Shelton send him out there to pitch the ninth with the game on the line? It took him 47 pitches, of which only 27 were strikes, to record a grand total of four outs.
  17. LewFordLives
    Two unearned runs today. That may be the difference.
  18. LewFordLives
    Embarrassing.
  19. LewFordLives
    Another Another wasted start.
  20. LewFordLives
    C'mon Buck. Salvage something from this weekend.
  21. LewFordLives
    This series has highlighted every one of their weaknesses. Inability to capitalize on offense, poor defense, and a questionable bullpen.
  22. LewFordLives
    A pithing change? Why now? Morris threw almost 30 pitches in the 8th. Why was he even out there to start the 9th?
  23. LewFordLives
    Another one pissed away. Unbelievable.
  24. LewFordLives
    This has to be one of the saddest headlines in the history of Twins Daily.
  25. LewFordLives
    Kreidler!
