You guys member when the bullpen was so rested that Berrios got pulled after 84 pitches?

 

4-0.

 

We got what is known as an uphill battle.

Who wants to bet Torres puts one out at some point this series?

Why do we waste our time playing these games?  Once the schedule comes out, the Twins should just petition the league to allow them to forfeit however many games are to be played at Yankee Stadium and save on travel costs.

Anyway, I got home just in time to watch Aaron Hicks get an rbi and Grossman flail.

 

Yay me.

 

Morrison just doesn't seem like a good fit on this team for some reason. I've said it a dozen times already, but it reminds me of the Kendrys Morales experiment. The guy was great before he got to the Twins, and went on to succeed after he left the Twins. But in a Twins uniform, Morales was awful and it feels like Morrison is cut from the same jib.

ehhhhh, I don't know... he seems like a pretty good fit
 

since he strikes out every other at-bat like a few other guys

 

Jeez... We need the Yanks to slow down a little so we can catch up.

 

If they stop scoring for the next 28 Innings... We might do it. 

Only 28 innings? You are an optimist!

I don't fault the Twins for trading Hicks.  He was dreadful for us

That trade was quite possibly the second worst thing done by Terry Ryan in his tenure as GM. Awful. Predictably awful.

 

Giving up that kind of talent? For Murphy?

Gentlemen and Ladies, we have blamecast winner, right here!

I just left to check on them and another run scored too. I guess I can't leave my couch.

I'm currently watching this game to pass time before the T-Wolves game. Because this game is obviously over. 

 

And with the Wolves luck, I'll probably be done watching both sports by 8 o'clock.

Important to see how we handle 'em the second and third time through the line up...

Whatcha got in first place?

We are out of our league here.  Just watch the at bats.  The Yankees don't swing at balls and we free swing all the time.  Walks will kill, as 2 have scored already.

If the trade had come back to haunt the Twins only once, no big deal. However, I believe the trade also cost on the defensive side of the ball in a couple of games, too.

The Good News: I have a lot of Yankees on my Fantasy Team. 

 

The Bad News: I have a lot of Twins on my other Fantasy Team.

Hey, I left so I could post a smart-alek remark at you and, well, another long ball.

 

I officially join you in the blamecast.

But you know what’s going to happen, we’ll catch fire mid summer and eek out way into the playoffs, make us believe again, only to be humiliated by these same yanks again. Happens all the time

You mean Torre? As unlikely as it seems, not even I will bet against that

Misery loves company.

 

Plus, I have nachos!

How many more losses until these game threads become pure toxicity?

 

I know I'm doing my part

Well LeCroy over Ortiz is in a Hall Of Shame, whole other level of bad.

 

But I honestly think shipping out Hicks is number 2.

Odorizzi got away with one on that 3-0 pitch. Should have been put into orbit.

I currently have zero warning posts, so I'm ready to rock whenever.

Don’t worry, like clockwork a few of the regulars will be by to scold us and assure us things aren’t so bad after all

I think you've only said it 11 times.

What would it take for someone on this roster to go nuclear in the dugout after this half inning? Or at any point in this series? How can professionals take so much humiliation?

Yeah... I wasn't going to go there but it should be listed as thee most prime example of how not to handle a 1st round draft pick. 

 

Hand him a CF job before he is ready with no back up plan whatsoever. Do this 3 years in a row and then when he finally shows signs of improvement. They trade a 5 tool player for a back up catcher. 

 

And then he succeeds with the Yankees and we have people saying that he was terrible for the Twins. 

 

I'll never be convinced that the trade was understandable... not even slightly understandable. 

This game is Oh-vah!
