2019 Minnesota Twins

Good work Perez. You rock.

 

[Hauvea]

I'll take anyone in the 5th spot in the rotation. Just get Perez gone. I mean for good.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

8 straight batters in a minor league lineup have reached.

That is incredibly bad

 

[Hauvea]

Boyd is good enough that we wont come back on him like this.

 

[Hauvea]

77 pitches in 2.1 innings . Wtf man?

 

[Hauvea]

I'm serious. After the game, I would cut ties with Perez and take my chances with one of the young guys.

We don’t hit Boyd well at all.

Luckily we hit a lot of timely homers off him.

Last Sunday we had 7 runs on 4 hits and a bunch of Ks.

So gonna have to hope for a couple walks and homers to get back close

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Another hit and another Adrianza error lmao

 

[Hauvea]

Seriously? I know people get pissed because I keep pointing it out, but if we didn't have tremendous power, this team would be the Tigers. We have mediocrity to down right shitty in our starters. Our bull pen is low end mediocre. Our RISP sucks majorly, and our defense is a joke. Without the insane homers, we win nothing.

 

[Hauvea]

Yep. They aren't into this game. They've already phoned it in.

 

[Hauvea]

Wont waste my time then. Got better things to do today. Try again tomorrow.

 

[Hauvea]

6 dingers and they still lost. It was that 8th inning when we had 4 strike outs. Its whats wrong with this team. We just cant make productive outs when the game is on the line. We choke. As shitty as Perez was, that game was still winnable. Where were those "bombas" when men were on base? This is how I envision it going in the play offs.

Back to playing small ball today. Scored 5 in the 2nd without a homer. Hopefully they keep pouring it on and euthanize the Tigers' hopes for today, especially with Cleveland trailing at the moment.

 

[Gopherfan84]

A couple of encouraging signs today as the lead grows to 5.5. Graterol looked decent in his debut and Buxton made his return, though as a defensive replacement.

The irony there is Buxton gets hurt when he plays D

 

[Nosferatu]

I call any Twins fan a friend but do you guys feel a little silly tearing on a team that has a chance to win 100 games?

No.

You’ve got us penciled in to be swept in October as well.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Rosario’s plate discipline against Jordan Zimmerman should play really well in October against Zach Britton

 

[Nosferatu]

No.

That doesn't mean i'm not enjoying the ride, I just know when it's time to get off...

Honestly,

I might like our chances vs the Yanks better than the Tigers

Our pitching loves serving up gopher balls to easily the worst lineup I’ve ever seen
