Agreed. This isn't what Correa signed up for. -
Where the hell was he lined up? You're that far back for a left-handed batter with 9 HR's? Brutal. He's lucky it didn't turn into runs.
-
lol. Great read by Margot.
-
Twins 'prospects' are talked up at an alarming rate - reminds me a lot of the Yankees' farm system a few years back. All these can't miss young guys except they did - Judge the exception.
-
And now for the daily episode of let the runner steal 2B without even a throw...
-
Something to build on, boys. Didn't hit into a double play.
-
Solid at-bat there, Farm Dog.
-
Nice job, Jeffers.
-
And you need them within the first 5 innings. We've seen the Twins handy work against the bullpen.
-
Don't understand the appeal of Manzardo acting like he's a team mascot when he hits a homerun. Act like you're doing your job instead of the clown show.
-
Santana's glove is platinum caliber this season but he desperately needs a day or two off. Instead of that though, it's Correa, Buck, and Lewis that are getting the orange slice and juice box days. Managerial malpractice.
-
The Cleveland bullpen has been lights out. This one won't be won by getting to their 'pen early. They need some runs against a very hittable starting pitcher.
-
Morneau already talking up Cantillo.
-
The difference between the Twins and Tigers is in the dugout. No one is going to convince that Detroit has a better roster than the Twins do.
-
I'd say the game-in 'managing' was the biggest detriment to the team this summer. Starting with the Sunday Massacre in Texas, there's 4-5 games that the Twins gave away. Imagine shifting those games into the W column? Twins would have the first wildcard spot close to wrapped up.
-
Feels like a formality that Detroit is going to overtake the Twins - and stay there.
-
How many legitimate 'power' hitters do the Twins have? I wouldn't consider Royce to be in that category. Santana used to be and while he's over 20 HR's, he's not what immediately comes to mind. So you have a team that lacks power hitters and has horrible plate discipline swinging at stuff outside of the zone all in the name of hitting the 3-run homer.
-
The Twins' line-up is homerun or bust - but the personnel doesn't match that strategy. The #1 priority this offseason should be finding a hitting coach that can help the young guys with fundamentals and situational hitting.
-
Not playing Buxton and Lewis last night is managerial malpractice.
-
Twins have been losing games at the margins all season long and last night might be the kill shot. Have to pick themselves back up and hope SWR can somehow patch together 5-6 innings, and then get on a plane to Boston. Should never have come to this. Under the radar moves like the Royals made at the deadline and the Twins would have the wildcard spot locked up by now. The entire organization needs to own this collapse. Ownership. Front office. Manager. Players. Lots of folks need to look in the mirror.
-
Oofda!
-
You throw Duran out there. 11 pitches. Every game is a must win.
-
Just got wrenching. By far, the worst loss of the season. Three teams from the Central going to the playoffs, and the Twins not among them. Thanks, Pohlads and Rocco.
-
Correa is the Twins best hope and even he may not be good enough. It's going to be a long off season.
-
Ober needs to go 8....maybe 9 and they have to get the bats going.
