Voth overachieved tonight. He was working on a 9.00 ERA coming into the game. He has now upped his game.
-
Get the ladies up in the north country working on sewing little gift pouches together for them.
-
At least it wasn't his first home run. Twins pitching have been experts at giving those up this year.
-
Like Gameday suggests. If the Scots were here, they would be singing "I would walk 500 miles!"
-
Mound visit by Caratini: Caratini: Can you see the little white thing in front of you on the ground? Rojas: Yes. Caratini: Try aiming for it next time.
-
I'm not sure I would believe that. Of course, that's just watching the game and not with any sort of metrics at all.
-
I'm going to defend Luke here. That was a pretty hot smash that, if he could have been able to make the out, would have been considered a good play. I've seen a lot of those balls go through and Luke at least got a glove on it. Maybe it would have turned out differently had he reacted a little quicker, but it wasn't an egregious play.
-
I made that point last night after it was announced that Ryan would be pushed back a start. Seems strange push the start back due to illness the night before. I believe this has more to do with MLB wanting to promote a big game than it is a personal decision by Ryan. I'm not sure Ryan would care who or when he goes on the mound.
-
I wonder if twin telepathy works in baseball. Tyler Rodgers line today for the Blue Jays: 1 IP, 3H, 2R, 1 ER, in 18 pitches coughing up the lead to the Astros. Didn't help with the catcher's interference for the second run though. Maybe we shouldn't find out and not have Rogers go out today. 😉
-
Do the Twins have a boxer? Maybe we can send him on based on the Marquess of Queensberry Rules? I think we could stand a better chance of winning the game.
-
This should help Prielipp's load management as well to push him back a couple of days. Hopefully a more favorable matchup for the young man against the Rockies.
-
Ryan is the second-hottest trade discussion for pitchers behind Skubal. That's what he is to the rest of the country. EDIT: I would also add that, for those trade suitors, a Joe Ryan game against the Dodgers could be very important to his potential trade value. It's still essentially the Dodgers vs the field on who wins the WS. If you are trading to try to beat the best, you want this start to see how he measures up.
-
Shelton also announced that Abel has swelling in his elbow joint again. No ligament damage. Seems we get to start over on his recovery. Too bad. I was hoping there would be reinforcements coming soon.
-
I wonder if that means a Rojas start tomorrow? I could see MLB wanting to set up Ryan vs Ohtani for game 3 as a must-see game.
-
Nice call by the ump. Live I did not think Pages went around.
-
That looked like a shaky catch by Call in the OF. Would have been nice if that ball would have got passed him.
-
I think that is the toughest part of the zone to call since you just can't lean over the catcher enough to see that pitch all the way. I know @mrtwinsfan hates it when catchers sit to receive the ball, but that's why, in order to give the ump a better look at that low strike.
-
Sorry Gray fans, he doesn't make that transfer fast enough to get Ohtani.
-
Nice contact from Lewis. Two strikes. All you're asking for is a chance.
-
The walk concerns me more than the home run. The HR was just a poorly placed pitch. The walk means his day should be about done.
-
Keashall is living dangerous with those ABS challenges. They're working, but I'm not sure I would have used them there.
-
You take that name out of your mouth! 😛 We don't want him anywhere near a Twins minor league park. That gives Zoll too many ideas of thinking he can bring him back if someone gets hurt.
-
I hope Perkins goes in the booth during the commercial break and gives him some grief. Tell him that his pitcher depends on him making that play.
-
Zebby at 74 pitches. Not sure he will get past the 5th inning. Then it's time to spin the Bullpen Wheel of Regrets.
