    The Twins aren't catching Cleveland. To have a chance, they'll need to sweep those four games in September. Good luck with that. I first mentioned losing games at the margins a while back and I was labeled a Rocco hater and called out for being a bot - saying the same thing after every game. Welp, if Sunday and last night aren't proof of his being a bad in-game manager, I'm not sure what is. The man has ZERO feel for the game. Bringing Okert into the game when you had Sands available and Jax could have reasonably thrown another inning - it is managerial malpractice. If the White Sox had a pulse this year, the Twins would likely be hovering around .500 and be out of the playoff hunt - that's for the folks clinging to the faulty narrative of 'but they're so many games over .500 so Rocco can't possibly suck'...

    Mistakes in the field and bats going to sleep. Won't beat a team like the Padres.
  3. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Yup which is why sweeping the Rangers would have been nice. Bank wins against bad teams instead of giving games away.
  4. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Bats better be ready tomorrow. King is legit.
  5. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    He doesn't have to cost them 15 games to be a problem. This division will come down to a handful of games. Has Rocco cost them that many this year? Yes.
  6. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    I don't care about the contact play. It should have never come down to that. This game was over and the manager served it up on a silver platter because his spreadsheet said Alcala was pitching a full inning.
  7. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Serious teams don't lose games like this one. Texas is all but eliminated. You're up 4-0 in the 7th. Jax and Duran both available. You pull Alcala after it's 4-2, you likely win.
  8. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    This team will wind up losing the division by one or two games. Thanks, Rocco.
  9. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Can't tell. Could be but not sure.
  10. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    People complained about Santana. Heh.
  11. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Bringing Alcala in is one thing. Leaving him in to lose the game is quite another. When a manager has zero feel for the game and instead sticks to predetermined scripts, this is exactly what happens. There wasn't even a mound visit. Jax was throwing. There was a delay. Ample opportunities to pull Alcala and get your best reliever into the game. We're not talking about the end of April or something. It's late August. Every game counts at this point and this is a game they had won. It's an awful loss and Rocco needs to own it. It's on him.
  12. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Should have pulled him...
  13. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    This is a bad loss and its on the manager.
  14. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Alcala wears the shame but the offense not being able to add on is a problem.
  15. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    FFS...
  16. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    If the Twins take care of business, and with some help, they could be a game behind Cleveland and 1/2 game behind Baltimore for the top WC spot. Pablo, be an ace today. Please!
  17. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    This is a fantastic post!
  18. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    I like Henriquez. I think there's something there for Maki to work with.
  19. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Heck of a win, boys.
  20. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Come on, Farm Dog...
  21. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Sands?!?
  22. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    But he HAD to pitch!
  23. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    If the rooks are going to have this much of a role down the stretch, take the training wheels off.
  24. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Carson Kelly having a day.
  25. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Need some length out of Festa tomorrow. Not sure on Jax and probably a no go on Duran. So you have Alcala, Henriquez and Richards.
