That's the worst part. Much of it has nothing to do with talent. It's just exceptionally stupid baseball.

This is why I blame coach Molitor for part of the Twins' terribleness. I don't get how this team has been so bad at the basics of baseball.

[Aggies7]

We should try giving up another home run tonight

[HitInAPinch]

Is Nolasco still pitching?

[twinssporto]

 

Many here would argue it's better when I'm elsewhere

No!  I appreciate the dry humor.  Makes me laugh out loud!

[USAFChief]

I've been having some foot problems, finally last week I thought I'd visit a podiatrist.  He examined me, and said I'd developed some "Malalignment" of my feet...whatever the heck that is.  He prescribed some orthopedic shoes.

 

I was skeptical, and even argued with the doc about it, but it seems to have helped.  At the follow up appointment today, I marched right into his office, stood in front of his desk, and told him "I stand corrected."

Time to bring in Jepsen!

[Willihammer]

Rosario woulda caught that.

[Aggies7]

Kepler took a route more like klink on that one.

 

Ok we get it, he's German.

Is Nolasco still pitching?

Well, he's definitely still throwing the ball. Not sure it's pitching.

Molitor has said a few times "you expect most of the developing to happen in the minor leagues... before they get here." And he has a pt I think.

 

Total. System...

yeah,  looked like all Kepler needed to do was put his glove up.

He absolutely has a point.

[Mike Sixel]

I predict a comeback win. Though Shields is well rested.....

[Aggies7]

Ricky has had about 4 easy outs tonight

[LaBombo]

 

Mauer. Yuckaroo

Sooo...he just ignores it then?  Not his problem?

[Danchat]

So, can the Twins pull Nolasco for May when he's healthy?

[Linus]

I think an unwritten rule of baseball is that you have to hit any player wearing a vampire mouthguard.

Avisail sounds like something found in the feminine products section of your grocer

[Winston Smith]

Rosario woulda caught that.

Doubt that but Sano would have he's very athletic you know.

Agreed. It plays into the total system failure bit too. They are terrible fundamentally, which is an indictment of the farm system too. A lot of this stuff is mind bogglingly stupid baseball that the skipper doesn't appear to hold anyone accountable for. There's a theme with that.

You seem to know a lot about this.  

[Aggies7]

Steely Dan warming up the pipes for Rikki...

Lmao

I used to work at a supermarket, big deal wanna fight about it?

[operation mindcrime]

Some trip to the mound!

[Aggies7]

Whatever paulitor said didn't work

[HitInAPinch]

If I'm a MLB manager, the last thing I would expect to teach a guy who's just been called up is how to play the game.

[LaBombo]

 

Who works more games, Bert or marney?

Bert's contract is for 100 games each season, and he picks most of them.

 

Marney's season ends with the 20th pouty post-loss interview or the 10th collateral damage gatorade bath, whichever comes first...
