That’s why having a guy that you’ve predetermined will only throw 5 innings every start is usually a terrible idea. Must not have learned from the archer and bundy debacles
I agree but it would be unfathomable for the twins to approach things like they’ve got the division sewn up. Plenty of games left directly against Cleveland. Haven’t even played Texas yet. 5 game lead, we’ve had plenty of longish losing streaks this season. This thing ain’t nearly close to over
I assume that ober was getting 5 inning regardless tonight? The way it all unfolded, I had terrible flashbacks to last season, needing 12 outs from our bullpen. Giving away far too many winnable games lately.
Seems as if there’s a feeling the division is wrapped up (because Cleveland is so bad) and we can just mess around with 6 man rotations and accepting 5 inning starts. In other words we can give some games away. That’s my take anyway
