If 8 or 9 times this past weekend in Toronto counts as "recently," then yes.

Yes...

Pretty recent.

 

Did the Twins score any of them?

 

Sounds about right.

Hey Santiago pitches a good game, Nolasco has to pitch a good game. Nothing wrong with that!

 

For me it's between Fullmer and Naquin.

 

I would vote Naquin just to spite him at this point.

Dick predicting a pitcher's duel tomorrow. That is rich.

It really could happen, though.  At least he didn't say that when we had Gibson scheduled. :-)

But doesn't one of the pitchers have to be from the Twins?

If Dozier gets on, Mauer's up as the tieing run.  A grand sl...

 

 

who am I kidding?

Dozier's up with the bases loaded. We have a chance...

Walking the 9 hitter, that has no business in the majors, with a 5 run lead, on 4 pitches.

 

 

Fine his ass.

Dozier got a run home.

 

Wasn't enough.

...........night after night and day after day it went on and on............

Lah-who,

zah-her.

 

Baker's dozen edition.

*sigh*

 

 

 

But there's always tomorrow!

 

Whether or not that's a good thing is open for interpretation.

I thought you were kidding me.

 

For a moment.

 

So...

 

We didn't win?

The Twins now have the all-time record for being swept in 3-game series at 11. With Atlanta likely to win today, the Twins will have the worst record in the MLB. They are also one more loss away from the Twins longest losing streak ever.

To be fair, before tonight he was 0-4 with an ERA+ of 71.

 

Alex Meyer dominated in 3 short stints with the Angels' rookie league team, then moved up to A+ and got shelled.

 

So far I rate this trade a shrug.

Sort of agree. But did you know that, by game score, Santiago's five games with the Twins, four of which were putrid, are not his worst five-game stretch this year? This isn't an advanced analytics stat, which has been alleged to undervalue him.

 

So...

We didn't win?

 

No, I don't think we did. I would double check the boxscore, but even my masochism has its limits.

Molitor is heading into Cal Ripken, Sr. territory. Sad way to end a career.

Logan Schafer drawing that 9th inning walk to load the bases! We have to move him up in the order now!

Hey, Chattanooga Guy! Time to do a game recap with all those crazy observations about us posters who are now your new friends!

3-18 in our last 21 games.

And, on a final note, wouldn't it be nice to leave Suzuki behind in Cleveland for a player-to-be-named later so we can get Mr. Murphy going up here in Minnesota, especially since they did add a third catcher to the Red Wings roster!

 

(Are we going to get a PTBN now from Tampa Bay, or just a gift card).

3-18 in our last 21 games.

 

Better than 0-13 in our last 13.

 

 

Silver linings, anyone?

well. on a positive note, with Atlanta's most likely win today, we have a game on them for 1 overall. 

What's our magic number?

When I see 13, I see Olivia (Cockburn) Wilde--not this Twins' "stuff".

OK, looks like today was the day Mauer passed Sano in season-long OPS in the pool.

 

Who saw that coming?

Twins with a Rider dozen losses in a row.
