    Great pitching again by the Twins. That's all I can muster.

    Twins offense explodes for 3 runs! Criminal effort in the 6th by Odorizzi giving the lead right back. Hard to fault the bullpen, this one's on the offense, again. Buxton gets hurt because he's trying too hard to make impossible plays in order to justify his place in the lineup. This team is a mess.

    I don't think he's going to start hitting until August again, but the the last thing the Twins want to do is start the AAA yo-yo. It's an absolutely terrible situation for the Twins because you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. This team cannot hit. It's embarrassing to watch and very depressing.

    I'd love to see a 7-run outburst tonight. Let's see some spark from the offense.

    I also think he was out - based on watching the play live it seemed the ball beat him there and perhaps he got swiped before his back leg came down. But I also agree with you that the call should not have been overturned. You couldn't see on the replay when exactly his back leg touched the plate. Essentially his leg was over the plate and the replay officials decided to make a guess and just assume his leg wasn't touching the plate at the time. Seems crazy to overturn a call based on an assumption, rather than video proof.

    No, I wouldn't. We Twins fans get pretty down on guys like Sano, Mauer, Buxton and Dozier when they are struggling...articles like these are pretty commonplace. Sano is one of the premier young power hitters in baseball. You don't trade him for a catching prospect. You keep him and only trade him in a contract year if you're rebuilding, and you cash in with a bunch of young arms. He's way better than you're giving him credit for.

    THE MAN!

    I also heard "DO YOUR JOB!" from that guy too, before he walked back and softened his approach and became more encouraging.

    Rosario is THE MAN.

    Thank you Detroit.

    Can anyone here the guy yapping to Morrison? Is that a coach or just a guy in the stands who's been overserved?
  12. bighat
    I feel like I'm about to be let down. C'mon Logan, fly ball.
  13. bighat
    OMG Twins man on 3rd 1 out, please please get a run home here.

    Question: if this goes to the 9th tied, do the Twins PH for Buxton with Cave?
  15. bighat
    I agree. That said, we're all pretty frustrated and venting about how terrible he looks right now doesn't mean we dislike or want to give up on Bux. It's just really, really hard to watch someone play this poorly and say positive things.

    Speaking about that, did anyone see the interview with the TB manager Kevin Cash re: pitching Romo 2 days in a row, etc? The guy might be a bit crazy, but he sounded excited about trying new things. Clearly has a nose for the game and is not afraid to really shake things up. Molitor is just about as old-school as they get, and not in a good way. There are old school guys like Buck Showalter who have some fire, but Molitor is just a robot.

    Maybe the Twins use that as motivation offensively. One can hope. Morrison needs to blast one out of the park in his next AB and stomp on home plate!

    I was starting to write the same thing before our rally there. Even when Buxton does make contact, it's very weak - he had a full swing there on his last out. His "fly balls to left" are really pop-outs to short. His double he hit a few games ago was just a bloop shot between the outfielders. It's like when an NL pitcher is batting and makes what appears to be good contact, but there's just no pop. Buxton's exit velocity is not good. That said, before his injury he was hitting the ball on the nose and lining out. But right now you are right, even when he makes contact it's extremely weak. You don't see those kind of outs from other center fielders in the league very often.

    Are you kidding? Brutal review there.
  20. bighat
    I think he's out. Nice rally though!
  21. bighat
    Kep doing his thing. A shame he's been robbed of these HRs lately! We'll take it!
  22. bighat
    Not much in the patience from Adrianza and Buxton there.
  23. bighat
    Attaboy Grossie (with a nod to Ron Gardenhire).
  24. bighat
    OK. I know 2-0 seems insurmountable with this offense right now, but if the Twins can just have some patience at the plate this can be overcome.
  25. bighat
    LeBlanc, Suter, and now Hardy? No-name soft-tossing lefties giving the Twins tons of trouble recently.
