Ridiculous to pull him after 2.2 innings with 3 runs in.

Like I said, Molitor and Logic do not mix. Amazing people still support this bozo, glad to have you back Plouffe...sheesh

    Molitor's managing like it's game 163?   Leave him in, what's the harm?

  • Good thing they got Meyer out of there to keep the game within reach.   Tommy Milone, ladies and gentleman,   your 2016 Twins bullpen's bridge to the late innings.   http://c5.nrostatic.com/sites/defa

 

Young Master Meyer is going to pitch a great game (everyone knock on wood)...Go Twins!  Good Lord I love baseball!

Why the Eff are they pulling him? What a load of $#it. If this team ever wants to be a contender it is going to be because the young guys succeed. What better time to give them a chance to work towards success than when you start the year 8-18? I'm so sick of this ****. I have ****ing had it. I'll start watching games again once they've given up on this godforsaken season and start playing the young guys. No more ****ign Tommy Milone. Jesus.

I think if Meyer is one of the young guys we're counting on to succeed, we're in trouble at this point.  Anything we can salvage from him at this point would be a bit of a bonus.

He hit 98 once, and 97 twice.

 

He game up three hits and three walks. He definitely had some bad misses, but pulling him in the third inning after he'd gotten two outs with a man in third is just...pathetic.

 

BREAKING: Hrbowski just saw his first ever Orange-crowned Warbler!

 

That's Cool

 

I admit that one of those things could hit me in the head and I wouldn't know what hit me in the head.

I can't stand the guy myself. He chews gum like a crackhead and he constantly spits like a little kid. He annoys the living !@!@@ out of me. Most importantly though, the guy can't manage to save his life.

It looked like this:

Wow, that's pulling the plug on him almost as quickly as Molitor.

He is awful, but who made the decision to make him the manager? You guessed it, Terry Ryan.

I didn't think Meyer had any pitch limitation, any other pitcher would've been left in at that point.  He's barely pitched in what 10 days?  But bring in Milone to let him pitch for 5 innings giving up meatballs. 

Man, I was hoping to see one of those things where you win more than one game in a row. What's it called again?

You're just mad that Plouffe missed that double play grounder :)

Pull him!

Any one else think Santana could have caught the Gomez hit?

Why, he had one bad year, that was actually not quite as bad if you account for BABIP. He's the only pitcher in the system with Ace potential and his stuff is amazing when its on (see that 2nd inning). He's been pitching great this year. He obviously lost his cool after giving up that quasi HR, but he's not going to improve his mental game if you don't make him work through it. To pull him after 2.2 innings is absurd and ridiculous, and makes me doubt Molitor as a coach, who I've always defended before. What does this teach Meyer? If you make a mistake, the coach will pull you, so you can't make a mistake. That's a recipe for nerves, anxiety, and self-doubt. Say what you will about Gardy's strategic acumen, but at least he understood how player development works, and that it isn't through tearing down your players' confidence.

Does Altuve come up every 4th batter?

This post finishes it for me tonight on Twins Daily. Real classy.

Streaking? ... wait ... that's dashing through a public place stark naked. Can't be.

 

Refresh my memory.

Well, if you insist.

 

We just balked in a run. Sheesh

 

For all his managerial sins, would you accept pennants?

 

If you're hoping for a pennant this year,   they're gonna need a papal pardon for what they did in April.

wow, just wow

Nice catch Sano! I'll admit my expectations are low.

This game needs more marney.

 

Boohoo, a guy said the manager annoys him on a message board. Time to toughen up

He didn't have to act like an immature thirteen year old.
