welp ... suppose the starters have been so good they were due for a stinker.

 

You wouldn't have expected it from Gio though...Anderson...yes, Hauser...definitely... Lyles...would be the most likely, Gio?? No...he never loses his command like this and walks this many guys. Incredibly disappointing...you sweep Pittsburgh, take 2 of 3 against Texas, now give those two games right back..that shouldn't happen...at home.

The Twins are way better than the Rangers and Pirates... and the Brewers for that matter.

I'm sorry, I find Hook's trips to the mound to be kind of amusing at this point. Sure, you haven't been able to help these guys much all season, but maybe something you say in the next 30 seconds will be useful.

Sitting behind home plate today. Black throwing hard (98mph) with very little effort. Had a good breakinball too.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

For those that complain that we hit too many homeruns, the philosophy seems to be working out okay for the Twins.

 

The problem is that we stopped and we don’t do anything else well.

Yeah, there is that.

Not saying that was an easy play but why did Yelich win a GG? Never see it really with his defense.

I think he’s still hurting. He hasn’t looked good at the plate either.

 

He doesn’t have a strong arm but he usually does a good job tracking down fly balls.

Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.
