  1. Umps clearly rigging this against the Twins here, the fix is in boys!
  2. Honestly I think this team could win a 1-game wild card series. They can compete with Houston, Tampa, and Cleveland. They can't win a series against the Yankees - but...can anyone in baseball compete with the NYY? That lineup is ridiculous. Embarrassed for the bullpen guys, getting pantsed every night. Exasperated witht the starting pitching. At the beginning of the year, we all thought Berrios might be the only guy worth anything. The smoke has cleared and sadly that is the case. Feel sorry for the offense: Rosario, Cruz, Polanco, Kepler - guys putting up monster numbers and scoring 7, 8, 10 runs per game and coming up with losses. Ashamed of the front office. PS - Kluber's coming back in a couple weeks, the Indians are only getting better and they don't need to make a trade to do it. If the Twins don't win the division or don't make the playoffs, the 14-12 loss to the Yankees will go down as the season's flagship moment.
  3. Yankees have bullpen guys that can just come in and strike guys out on 3 pitches in pressure situations.
  4. Whoops double play by Schoop, that's 2 rough dp's in the last 2 innings.
  5. Arraez is to the 2nd half what Polanco was to the first! Such a great addition to the offense. Nice to see Polanco heating up again as well. Smeltzer doing a nice job keeping it close. Let's get another one back this inning!
  6. Leadoff man on for the Yanks, doesn't bode well. Gregorious lurking in the hole!
  7. How about the Twins score 4 more and Smeltzer pitches 4 more scoreless innings?
  8. Odorizzi's season ERA for the season is now closing in on 4. Nice to see the Twins chip away a bit.
  9. Unforgivable effort by the Twins pitching staff this series. Today is the worst of the bunch, but they were all terrible. The Twins look like they need to trade for 4 starters and 4 relievers right now if they want to have any chance at winning a playoff series. Extremely disappointed!
  10. Anyone left in the pen? We gonna ride May for 2+ again? I see now way the Twins hold the Yankees under 10 if we go to the pen before the 6th.
  11. Throw by Cave allows 2 to eventually come around and then....not a great effort on that dive. Bad route. And poof the lead is gone. Kepler riding the bench. Buxton meanwhile is in the dentist's chair.
  12. This ain't on the Pohlads. This is on Falvine. What we all predicted would be a problem is now a full-blown disaster. Who's ready today? Is Trevor May going to come in and try and pitch 2 innings again? We know how that goes. Rogers is showing signs of overuse and he's the only decent arm there. Stashek looked good but he'll likely head down soon again. The cupboard is bare, the Twins got their hearts ripped out last night, the final game of the series is looming, and the Indians are playing Toronto. Pardon us Twins fans for feeling frustrated. Still can't believe last night. The bullpen basically told the offense: "no matter how hard you work, we're gonna lose this game". Unacceptable.
  13. Pretty embarrassing night for Gibby and another disaster for the Twins pitching staff. C'mon offense! Get us over the hump here. Falvine...WHEN, ALREADY!
  14. Sano! I love it! Amazing AB and a great call by Smalley there.
  15. I think the magic dust Perez was using ran out a month ago. He's only really had one OK start in his last 7-8 appearances. If we can match him up against KC or Detroit he might get it done, and I think at this point the Twins are kinda stuck with Perez. I'm not thrilled about it but what can we do? Great work from the pen to hang on to this lead. I predict Gibby brings his A-game tonight and gives the Twins a quality start. Would be ecstatic if the Twins could take this series.
  16. I noticed that this morning when I checked the box score. I nodded silently in approval.
  17. Yeah he does work this slowly, regularly. Takes forever.
  18. Perez makes Gibson look like Mark Buehrle on the hill.
  19. Luckily for this lifelong Twins fan, I've got some things to do that will take me away from the game/Internet for the rest of the day. Hope the Twins somehow pull this one off, can't say I feel too good about it. Hang in there everyone.
