Back in it, knew it all along

 

Was grossman walking the bases, or?

 Grossman is sooooo slow.... and got thrown out at the plate yesterday trying to score from second. Not even close. At least this time it doesn't hurt us.
 

He just loves to walk.

Sano has 4 strikeouts today. That's amazing.

 

Golden sombrero!!!!!

Great. Kintzler lock down.... has the benefit of the shadow, too...

But this knocks Kintzler out for tomorrow, I presume. And we are behind...

 

Of course, if Colon starts tomorrow we'll likely be so far behind we won't need him.

Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of Kintzler--'s pitches...

Way too many pitches. Guess we won't see him at Dodger Stadium on Monday. Good job Kintzler. Smart, Molitor......

But then.... look at this pen! Maybe they get another mediocre arm and go with only 2 bench..... Kintzler.... our stud.

Pretty disappointing to have 8 arms in the pen and a guy on the mound who is out of gas. 

Sigh.

 

**** blargh.

 Hell.... why not go with 9.... or 10? Who needs a bench when you have guys like Breslow! You only need Gimenez on the bench! He can even pitch!

Left the game 20 minutes ago, not regretting it,

If this series is any indication the Twins are going to get annihilated in LA.

3 pitchers from the bullpen should be here next year. That's it. And maybe not even 3

Rally in the bottom of the ninth! If you are going to set the record for your longest 9 inning came, may as well win it.

We can only hope that a good thing that might come from this is that it could finally be the end of the line for Craig Breslow.

Breslow and Duffey definitely tried their best to make sure all their inherited runners to score.

I would guess that the Twins won't get to their hotel until late tonight, and will be tired tomorrow. And not much bullpen will be available. Maybe they should fly someone in from Rochester?

Kershaw pulled after 2 scoreless innings as back stiffened...... damn. I hope he is OK. I hate to see the best in the game get hurt, and have to sit out. 

Falvey is a joke so far, this bullpen is awful.

 

Molitor is a terrible manager as well, this game was typical Molly.

 

Can't wait for the Dodgers to sweep us so they can trade dozier and Santana for poor returns.

 

Sometimes hiring the cheapest GM isn't the best idea.....

That's a start. Dozier loves to hit solo home runs. Hey... they always count.

They should cut half of these bums:

 

Breslow, Boshers, Presly.

 

Unreal

What's 5 in a row in a game called?

We watched a record. That is ........ something.

Duffey should be sent down and Breslow should be released. Busenitz should be called up.

I'm normally not this guy but I think Breslow should be released so you can call Vargas back up because the Dodgers will probably throw two left-handers at us.

 

I'd also like to see Buxton back. 

 

Calling up a bullpen arm is like replacing the fodder in the cannon. The bullpen should not have been gassed. We had an off day on Thursday and a decent start by Gibson. 

Hey if the bullpen comes in and does their job and provides, relief, they are never gassed. When they suck, they throw too many pitches, and are always gassed. When your starters are not that great at best, the bullpen can still get you into the World Series. Smart GMs have been paying attention and collecting 7-8-9th inning forces. KC changed the game.

 

Surely the new FO team is paying attention, right?

BTW... If I had bought a ticket to that game. 

 

I'd be demanding a refund. 

 

The Twins were sub par across the board and the Tigers were par at best. It was a horrible game to watch. 

 

I'm gonna take a shower. I feel dirty after watching that game.

I agree 100%

 

 

Bullpen is the new currency.

 

 

Since the break, the pattern is Lose/Win/Lose/Win/Lose/Win/Lose/Win/Lose.....  no streaks, no two loses in a row...... sooooooo....... we take Monday and Wednesday at Dodger Staduim! Too bad for Berrios. And that means Colon wins a game? Ha. I would bet on the win coming Tuesday. Patterns don't last forever.
