    Oh yes, bringing in Graham (the rule 5 rookie) to face A-Rod with the bases loaded and a small lead. That was a great idea. How could you not see a grand slam coming?! That one was the epitome of Molitor's terrible bullpen decisions.
  2. Danchat
    Duffey in a one run game? That's a gutsy move by Molly, I have a feeling it will work. But we'll see...
  3. Danchat
    Hildy is coming out a few betters too late. Yanks made the right move getting Robertson in to finish the 6th, Molly yet again hangs with a pitcher too long and gets burned.

    Oh boy, here we go. If we give away the lead here, I'm not sure we'll be able to beat that bullpen of theirs.

    My speculation yesterday was correct, Gee's the next man up in extra innings. Let's hope he can hold 'em...
  6. Danchat
    Well, there goes the lead.
  7. Danchat
    The Twins are paying the Angels something around $4M to help carry Nolasco's contract, right? Well, I guess we're paying him to stink elsewhere! What a shrewd move by Antony!
  8. Danchat
    We traded him to the Mariners for a pitcher named Stephen Pryor, but he never made it to the majors and quickly DFA'd. Yeah, I had to look that one up. Don't remember that at all.
  9. Danchat
    Will it be Hidly to the rescue again?

    Don't forget that Cleveland will likely still be competing with the Astros for the #1 seed, so they when they face us they'll still have their reasons to win. Unless they just win out the rest of the schedule... don't have to worry about Houston then.

    Somewhere, Royals fans are furious for that 0-2 hit.
  12. Danchat
    Yup, just another terrible decision to bunt. Polanco is hot, let him hit!
  13. Danchat
    Alright, Gibson, you've given up a run, now time to recover and get back to notching outs. Old Gibby would implode at this point in the game, so let's see what happens this time.

    I'm glad to see all that clamoring I did for Busenitz and Hildenberger back in May-June is paying off. Both are pitching spectacularly and they've been a huge boon to this bullpen. They're two names you can jot down on 2018's bullpen and hopefully not have to worry about those spots. I do wish Duffey and Pressly could get things figured out, as they've both had stretches of dominance followed by stretches of ineptitude.

    My thoughts: It stinks for Berrios to have another rough outing, but they just gotta keep throwing him out there. He'll get better and better as he goes on, but it's not going to be smooth sailing the whole time. The back end of the bullpen has been pretty brutal. I thought Perkins' problems would end up being his lack of velocity and inability to get Ks but apparently his problem is the inability to throw a strike - 3 walks and 3 HBPs in 5 innings. Maybe he has the stuff to hang on in the MLB but he needed a lot more than 7.1 innings in the minors before he was ready. He didn't pitch for 18 months and all he gets is 7.1 warmup innings before he's fed to the sharks?! Duffey has been downright terrible in his last 4 outings, giving up 8 earned runs plus more inherited runs. He needs to figure things out quick because his pitching isn't cutting it.

    Ugh. Molly finally used the LOOGY right and Boshers failed.
  17. Danchat
    Urk. Dickerson is good.
  18. Danchat
    Even when the Twins offense isn't putting across runs, they seem to consistently run the pitch count up. It's impressive to see the opposing pitcher pulled in the middle of the 6th inning after giving up just 1 run and 3 hits/2 walks.
  19. Danchat
    Wow, Buxton did a great job creating a run there!
  20. Danchat
    Y'know, I was thinking to myself after that 3rd inning, if this was a rookie starter pitching there (shades of Enns/Meyer), Molly pulls him once it's 2-2. But since Gee is a vet he got more time to get himself out of that mess and the game got blown open. I'm not blaming Molitor or anything... just a thought.
  21. Danchat
    They're tied, doing shoot offs now.
  22. Danchat
    Just finished watching a 90 minute soccer game, and the Twins are only in the 5th inning. Baseball can be slow... Irioncally the team we were against are the Royals.
  23. Danchat
    7 scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts and just 5 baserunners. Berrios may have had some clunkers, but it's clear he's improving and he's going to keep getting better. Gibson is OK and it's not quite time to boot him out of the rotation, but he simply doesn't have the upside Berrios does.
  24. Danchat
    I think Hildy should get the next couple days off. We need his arm fresh for September.
  25. Danchat
    POLANCO!!!!!! Is that 60% of his HRs against the White Sox?
