My issue is it's not like Pinto is 21, he's 25 the future is now, but Gardy is an idiot so it's not surprising...

This is true. Can't really say there was any expectations of the Twins competing for a playoff spot, so a guy like Pinto should have been getting more at bats than he was.

Apparently the Twins disagree with the signing of Morales. And, of course, then immediately plug Morales into the lineup.

They are fooling themselves if they think this rotation is getting them anywhere close to a playoff spot.

Ya he's a fucking moron.

I know Suzuki is playing well but you gotta get pinto ABs.

Pretty soon Meyer will be "old" too.

It's ridiculous how we do things.

great job Ausmus..
Verlander gives up 1 run in 5 innings. then.... after 5 singles and a couple walks...he pulls Verlander. WTF, this guy hasn't clue how to manage. he should have pulled Velrander earlier. his pitch count was high. I blame Ausmus!!!!


can anybody think of even 1 play that Ausmus made that impressed you??? can you think of any move he made BEFORE any thing happened??? he sucks!

so. Tigers still in first in the Central. came into Chicago ahead of the south siders by 4 1/2 games. after tonights game. sox will be 3 1/2 game behind. so. why the drama? finny yankee homer fan is talking chit...while the Yankees are 4 1/2 behind the blue jays.


does Verlander suffer from Ausmus not smart enough to take him out? does this leave the former Cy Young winner and MVP off the ALL STAR team??? I think not

No one has heart like the UCLA Bruins. Last team to win 7 consecutive titles!

Ausmus should have taken him out sooner, but Verlander also suffers from shitty command. And perhaps an injury.

Ausmus seriously screwed the pooch last night. JV was spent, had been all inning. Should have brought in the lefty to face the lefty. But it didn't matter, as they don't score any fucking runs either. Chris Sale owners should be happy later tonight.

tell me again..how many cups the shark have won?

Canadiens were the last hockey team to win five consecutive titles. If only the Red Wings had as much heart! Who cares if that was over 50 years ago?

Im still glad Old Smokey is sitting back enjoying his golden years. Ausmus has a lot of running us out of innings, not bunting guys over, leaving starters in too long, using Coke and the like before I get too worried about him. Im still not really worried about anything really. Just didn't expect the club to be in coast mode so early. Cruise control woulda been a good idea for a couple months first. But what can you do?
