Agreed.  It's gonna be ugly from time to time.  Especially with the pitchers.

 

Example:  Berrios is getting pulled for Bubba Boshers.   Ugly / Ugly.

I wish "time to time" didn't happen so frequently and last so long

 

I'm a bachelor tonight, the wife took the kids to her parents for the weekend. I will be checking this thread while I sit at various bars in my town. All by myself.

My wife says it's sad and creepy. I say it's long past due.

DOZIERZEE!  With a mini-jolt!

1 out, 2 in scoring position.  I like it.

 

nothing flashy. 1 run in, Dozier to 3rd

I want everyone to know that as a big Sano fan, I currently dread these situations.

disappointed groan.

Low inside dirt ball with two strikes. That's the book on Miguel. Sano's got to learn to lay off that pitch.

All sarcastic complaining aside, it really is incredibly alarming that max Kepler (in limited time) and Rosario (inconsistently) are the only big time prospects not completely stinking up the joint. Very very alarming.

Archer toyed with Sano every pitch that at bat.

 

Oh, but my bro (spinowner) may be joining you in about an hour.

Hour and 37 minutes

Don't worry, someone will find Kepler's weakness. Probably about the time Sano figures out how to lay off those off breaking pitches.

It's both, of course.

Wrong decision by Escobar. Gotta make that read.

The Rays should be imprisoned for the robberies they just did to the twins

Can't argue.  Each of these guys don't really have anything to prove in the MiLB anymore.   Boston was patient with Bradley Jr. and Bogaerts.  Worked out pretty well.

 

Twins will need to be patient with Berrios, Sano, Buxton, Duffey....

Yeah, that's enough  

Man, a steal of second, a steal of third and an rbi ground out....on three pitches. That's embarrassing.

Buh-bye Bubba...

This shows how incredibly conservative most mlb teams are. If I were managing against the Twins, my guys would steal on every pitch with Suzuki behind the plate. We would have guys on third base all day long. 

And you get a free base and you get a free base

This is brutal

"Crazy Train"  by Ozzie.   Classic!!

 

but not in a good way....

And it somehow gets worse

Did Vargas teach that guy that slide?

 

Hour and 37 minutes

There's a reason we don't allow math in the game threads.

Strap in.  Pick you color.  1 each ONLY!!

Does may have more wild pitches or holds this year?

why didn't May just lunge at him???

They really need a catcher that can actually be a catcher, instead of some guy that just crouches back there. Anyone with moderate speed takes a walk in the late innings, and it's a free run.

 

You can literally find guys off the street that can control the running game better than Suzuki.
