OFFICIAL '20 AL CENTRAL THREAD N' STUFF

[mr.hockey4242]

Thats a damn good series win

 

[osubuckeye89]

I guess they scored a run today. Progress lol

 

[PnkPanther]

not going to complain about 3/4.

No shame losing to Bieber.

 

[PnkPanther]

Ball game.

Berrios is fucking terrible. And the AB's against Bieber through 2 innings are uninterested in making him try.

that's a bit of an overreaction.

Berrios isn't turning into the ace we hoped he would be, he's pretty solid #2. The problem is we need him to be our ace and he's just not

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Latest on Donaldson’s trailer trash ass??

Enjoy that dirtbag...He was underwhelming while with the Indians

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Man.

You guys have scored like five runs in the last five games

Sucks because our pitching has been lights out. IMO I think we have the best rotation going

Yep maybe the best rotation in baseball, the worst lineup in baseball LOL

I don't get it.

I would have been happy with a split, said it before, but after watching them hit in this series. I might be happy with a split all season. I wouldn't say Minny's pitching is great either, that's how bad this lineup is right now. They need to make some changes and some changes quick...this might be the worst hitting through about a 10 game stretch I've seen in over 20 years.

On pitching twins are missing a true ace, bullpen should be pretty good and our starters are ok, just don't have that killer

Yeah 5 runs in 4 games is pitiful vs any team but they made Twins pitching staff looked like the best staff in the league

 

[osubuckeye89]

2 runs. Offensive explosion!

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Twins offense has been pretty fucking shitty here as well.

Tough to get our patented hits with RISP if we don't even get guys on base tonight

 

[osubuckeye89]

Worst offense in baseball. These guys would be lucky to finish 30-30 at this rate.

 

[osubuckeye89]

Franmil Reyes and Daniel Johnson have been especially brutal. They seem to swing at anything out of the zone while always watching hittable pitches go by

Well, we got a few guys on thanks in large part to walks....and the RISP production continued.

ABsolutely no fucking clue why the Pirates pitched to Cruz with game on the line 2nd and 3rd 1 out. Walk him and let your flame thrower face Sano.

Man the way he stared that shot down I thought it was gone. Didn't matter because where it went the game was over.

Yeah I think thats more so why he stared it down there. Regardless he knew it was a winner.

Reyes has some serious contact issues. He had the lowest contact rate in 2019 and a very high swinging strike percentage. If only he could make more and really display that power.

The Twins dont even come close to the Indians in the race for worst offense though

Indians 11 games 28 runs .190 BA .282 OBP .277 SLG .558 OPS
Twins 10 games 51 runs .232 BA .306 OBP .417 SLG .723 OPS

our competition

Pirates (2-8) 10 games 34 runs .187 BA .252 OBP .309 SLG .561 OPS
Diamondbacks (3-7) 10 games 27 runs .192 BA .268 OBP .265 SLG .533 OPS

some high company to be in..............
