Buxton and Marwin are both 0/4 today. But we immediately have 8 runs in their return.

No, thats not a coincidence.

Our lineup is just that much deeper and more spread out with actual MLB talent back.

Kepler up to 21 bombs now.

Sano at least keeps hitting dingers in between his Ks.

Pineda pitched real well.

Please go get some pitching. Half way through the season we lead baseball in TB, HR, AVG & OPS

What the fuck happened to the Indians? They are making the O's look like the best team in the league.

Nelson Cruz has been one of my favorite twilight pick ups in years of late or pick up of any sort. A true baseball player. That double he smashed with the bases loaded the other day to take the lead was a fist pump moment the Twins don't get very often in years past.

You guys remember the players our former front office used to tell us would take care of our DH power problems? Craig Monroe, Brett Boone, Rondell White, Tony Batistia and his ridiculous clown show open batting stance?

This year has been fun to watch.

Lmao totally forgot about Monroe.

A couple of those were kinda bad luck they didn’t work.

None were as sure of a bet as Cruz but a few I thought would be solid

Let's hope we end up loving him as much as we did Chili Davis!

Fucking Gonzalez lost us that one.

Move the runner over jackass!

Lunging at a outside pitch for a soft line out is bad baseball

Cruz has lost some off his bat speed. Its clear he isnt seeing the ball like he use to. Against weak pitchers, he can still do damage, but against good pitchers he is getting owned. Nice to see him crack a few homers, but i have sat through far too many situations already this season where he has had a chance to really make the difference, and he cant even put wood on the ball. All those strike outs, all those runs left on the bases. I would not be counting on him to succeed regularly.

But this series against the A's will be big. We need to start beating the good teams. It seems every time we run into a decent pitcher, we get shut down.

Game wasn’t on the line with Duffey.

You’ve got 1 job in that situation and a veteran hitter couldn’t even try and do his job.
