Cueto is a tough match-up for May but he's holding his own so far. Got pretty scary for a bit with bases loaded with no outs in the second though. Awesome to see May bear down and fan a pair and then get a pop out to get out of it.

If May hadn't airmailed that throw to 2nd in the 1st his last start... he gets out of that. Such a shame. He'd probably have a sub 4.00 ERA now...

He had a couple wild pitches today as well that didn't help his case. And then Herman made a bad throw to 2nd... :L

The losing might be getting to Molitor. Pinch hitting Suzuki in the 8th vs cueto was one of the dumber moves I've seen in a while. There was no logic.

And today was another day you see our GM hand cuffing us. Our lineup is already very slump prone. So when we have to give guys like torii and Mauer a rest we are legit screwed.

Another game with 2/3 of our outfield being goddamn shortstops. Like that's just incredible ineptness really. And as bad as Suzuki is as a starter we can't afford to rest him because Hermann is the worst catcher I've ever seen

Sano gets a hit! Beats the throw for an infield single!

Great game from Gibson. A little nerve wracking in the 8th. Nice to see him make it outta there.

Perkins stays perfect.

Be nice to at least take three from KC.

Had a chance to get a huge 3/4 games in KC

And Molitor pulls Santana inexplicably for fucking Boyer and Thompson to lose us another game.

Well Santana is looking good added into that rotation. Looking forward to more of that. Dude always racks up the innings year after year. Proved he still can yesterday by cruising through 8 innings with only 93 pitches and striking out 8 bats. Yes, I'll take more of that please!

Great start. Gibson showed some fortitude in the first, getting out of the jam. Might be a different story.

This Sano kid might be good.


Hope Buxton is watching how to approach at bats.

Milone ERA below 3!

Great series by Sano.

Mauer and Dozier continue to do their thing.

Hopefully we can get this next series with Detroit and head into the AS break on a really big note.

Big sweep. But same issues.

Arcia is hitting 450 foot homers nightly now. Get him up here and swallow your pride Terry. He's good, deal with it. Sano needs protection as you saw again today.

He's not going to offer Sano any protection, due to his strikeout rate, especially against lefthanders.
