Alright

 

He's got some stuff... but his nerves got the best of him. His command was quite a bit off. I was watching his mechanics and he wasn't repeating very well. He can fix that. 

 

Let's see how his next start goes. 

I would like to see Meyer in this game, but Molitor isn't going to trust him in a close game...

Oof, Abad in the 5th? What a clown car our bullpen is.

Are we going to get to see Meyer and Berrios in the SAME GAME?

It makes sense to me. He's pitching well, so you send him out to try and preserve the tie game with 2 guys in scoring position.

 

 

In play, run(s). Dang it.

Love how Dick laughed at bringing in a lefty.

I suspect it has more to do with not wanting to let Meyer get his feet wet in a close game with runners on base. If he comes in, it'll be a clean inning.

 

Oop, did I see a bullpen call???

 

Yep.    Abad is the lucky duck.

Lindor is a stud.  I have SS envy.

I think we should.  I mean, what the h is the point of having Meyer on the team?

I get that, but I'd rather see him later. Heck, maybe even the 9th since jepsen is stinky.

How many fouls is that tonight? 67?

I think the original poster had it right. Meyer has been with the team two games, immediately after a 16 inning game and we haven't found a spot for him.

 

He last pitched last Wednesday

What was that

Good lord. Looking like an early night for me and after such a promising start too.

Berrios looked like he burned enough energy for two starts. He was nervous as a cat the whole time. I'm surprised he lasted into the 5th. You could see why the team is excited about this kid. Great stuff. Good mix of heaters. a tight, low curve, and a change that bends half a foot to the right, just the right amount. 

 

Within two or three starts, we're going to see a very good pitcher.

Just in case anybody was missing Sano in the OF

 

Rosario lends a hand

 

Classic, or....

Ripple?

Dill pickle.

Well, good thing our best reliever was used to face two batters and our left fielder couldn't catch a can of corn. Questionable bullpen management.

If a game of pickup hoops breaks out during a rain delay,   how many bullpens can field a 6' 9''   center?

 

 

 

Rosario looked like Jacque Jones out there in Jacque's early years in the Metrodome LF

Whoops, now the wheels have fallen off, and motley troop of clowns is piling out of the car to fix it...

What's weird is that something like that is so rare to see, but that's like the 6th total boner we've seen in the outfield in a week.

It was weird that he didn't pitch two nights ago but Nolasco went 7 1/3 last night. Not a lot of time to get Meyer into that game.

 

And putting Meyer into tonight's situation in the fifth would have been bad management. You don't do that to a guy in his first appearance.

I think I could steal a base off this team.

Just go on ahead and take 3rd base. Tonkin no Bueno.

Nearly every game the Twins have played has been close, so I guess we'll never see Meyer

Yes, I thought I saw some good things and a future.

 

Alright

Let's see how his next start goes. 

He still looks nervous sitting on the bench after being taken out.  He had a ton and a half of emotion, and he'll learn to get that more under control.  He'll also eventually start getting those borderline calls.  I think the kid will be alright.  More than alright.

This team sucks. It shouldn't suck like this, but it does. I'm turning this game off. Good night.
