  1. And let's hope the defensive miscues stay with Danny Gladden in the booth and not leak out onto the field tonight.
  2. Kreidler makes a play I'm not sure that Gray could make just now getting Carrol out.
  3. Watching the Saints game. Wallner just hit a home run and is batting 2nd in the lineup. His hitting has been getting better lately. Having him hit higher in the lineup may be a sign that they are looking at seeing what he can do for the big league club in the near future.
  4. There has to be a beat writer somewhere to keep asking Buxton how he feels about being in all the trade rumors. That response Buxton gave was gold.
  5. I'm only waiting for this postgame interview with Shelton to see if anyone has the intestinal fortitude to ask him why he left Preilipp out in the 6th and Adams out to die.
  6. Make sure and get some Icy Hot too. Can't have too much burn in their jock shorts when they come home!
  7. Yep. Preilipp was charged with 3 runs, but it really should just be 2. Three runs on the defense. Four runs on Shelton.
  8. He was already hot and ready to come in the game. Idk what his work has been the last few days. It's possible he needed the work anyway.
  9. Close enough. I've been supportive of most of Shelton's moves this season. Tonight is not one of them. He single-handedly cost the Twins this game. Yes, the defense was bad, but we could have overcome that. We couldn't overcome Shelton's bad decisions to leave pitchers out there to die.
  10. Please put Laweryson in. I just want to see the grand slam so I don't have to stress about the Twins trying to make a rally.
  11. Gameday is wrong as well. They still have Gray in the game at SS.
  12. Thank you. Now I can say what I wanted to say when I heard it. What in the ACTUAL F was Gray allowed to hit in the 8th inning and kill the rally with his terrible plate appearances!!!
  13. The radio boys do not match Gameday. Is Gray out of the game? The radio boys claimed that Lee is now at SS with all of the defensive shuffling.
  14. Great job by Bell and Lewis! Sadly, that HR by Marte is looming very large right now.
  15. No. They were pretty accurate on stating that it was the defense that let down Preilipp. That's why I have not be very critical of him tonight. He pitched well enough to get out of the inning. His defense did not allow him to do so. I would still say that even with all of that, Preilipp should not have come out for the 6th inning.
  16. Martin was daydreaming about the Kreidler-copter that @krink is currently trying to acquire.
  17. I am following the game on radio and Gameday so there may be details I do not have since I can't see it.
  18. I didn't mind Shelton leaving Preilipp out there to complete the 5th. The 5th inning was not his fault. Even if you had a plan to get Groover in the 6th before replacing him could be understandable to let Preilipp finish on a high note. There was no reason to go beyond that and let him face the lineup for the 4th time. They don't even have Joe Ryan do that normally, much less Prielipp.
  19. It will be interesting to listen to the postgame interview with Shelton on why he left Preilipp out there to die on the crabgrass in the 6th inning. I'm scared of the Twins bullpen as well, but you have to still make moves to try to win the game. You were only down 2 with AZ in a bullpen game.
  20. Again. Please keep politics out of the thread. Thank you.
  21. I'm a bit surprised by Shelton's willingness to keep Preilipp into the 6th inning though. The 5th inning wasn't Preilipp's fault, but that should have been it for him.
  22. @krink Is it safe to bring this back yet for the updated Twins game?
  23. Bad luck for Preilipp. Can't expect him to continue to fight when you give the other team 6 outs in one inning.
  24. We have baby steps with Lewis. He is making contact tonight. No strikeouts yet.
