    Escobar: Sano's out? No problemo, I can hit HRs too!
  2. Danchat
    They're already done with Kennedy, huh? Time to wear down their bullpen.
  3. Danchat
    I wonder if anyone had predicted Rosario to hit 20+ HRs this season.
  4. Danchat
    Somewhere, Royals fans are furious for that 0-2 hit.
  5. Danchat
    Yup, just another terrible decision to bunt. Polanco is hot, let him hit!

    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.

    The Rays sure do like to respond with the exact amount of runs we scored, don't they?

    Colon isn't going anywhere. He's a lock in that rotation whether we like it or not.
  10. Danchat
    Whoa, I need to whip up a new Infielders in the Outfield cover! And no joe in the lineup!

    Would you look at that, Tonkin's back. It is well deserved after he's absolutely torched AAA (1.73 ERA, 13.2 K/9, 1.056 WHIP), and I think it's fair to give him one final chance to stick before they move on from him. Maybe if he pitches better, he can improve the back end of the bullpen. Grossman is back already? Doesn't it usually take 3-4 weeks to get healthy from a fractured finger? He only spent 18 days on the DL, so I'm not sure if he'll be fully healthy yet. Hopefully they will ease him back in or he might struggle at the plate. Does Chargois to the 60 day DL technically promote him to the majors and give him MLB pay for the rest of September? Either way, it's been a lost year for him, and he'll probably need more AAA time in 2018 before he can sniff the majors again.

    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.
  14. Danchat
    Urk. Dickerson is good.
  15. 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.
  16. Danchat
    Wow, Buxton did a great job creating a run there!
  17. Danchat
    Probably wouldn't want a strikeout here where you at least need to advance the runner.
  18. Danchat
    Big PA for Garver here. Edit: Ninja'd by glunn.
  19. Danchat
    I think the Twins are due for another 2 runs in the bottom of the 7th seeing how the box score is going.
  20. Danchat
    Yes! Buxton!!!
  21. Danchat
    Escobar must have heard that chatter from that thread saying he was a poor batter. Give some respect to this guy who's got more than a little pop in that bat!
  22. Danchat
    The Twins are better at scoring TDs with their drive of the game compared to the Vikings.
  23. 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.
  24. Danchat
    They're tied, doing shoot offs now.
  25. 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.
