LaTroy has zero chemistry working with Dick. I don't think he's the next analyst

 

He'd be good if they teamed him with Morris or Blyleven and they just talked about pitching and old war stories, to the near exclusion of what's happening on the field.

I like how you're thinking...could be far more entertaining than the game

 

Bremer just credited Grossman's big night in the cleanup spot to Molitor's audiophile ear picking up the more solid contact Robbie's bat has been making lately.

 

And with that revelation, Dick takes the early lead in MLB broadcasting's prestigious weekly 'Aquatic Flight Over Deadly Sea Creatures' Award...

 

I need to slip on a new Depends after wetting my pants from that one...

 

 

Am definitely not watching the Twins any more if my new favorite player explodes on the field.

The Twins are only carrying 9 relievers.

Better not give up many hits...the 9th will be a test of the new plan

 

Does Hildy keep going or is it time for the FRE

Man, I would seriously hate to face Hildy.

 

When he's even remotely on, that stuff is vicious...

It's the 9th inning with a one run lead and we know how Molly operates. You don't go with the hot arm, you go with Rodney because he's the closer, decision over.

Hit and run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So many deadly bullpen weapons, so little opportunity to fire them...

Dang it...Wilson hits another right on the screws and another Brewer robs him of hitting it out of the park!

Gladden making a late run at this award:

 

 

Prior to Wilson's at bat: you're gonna sacrifice here

 

After Wilson's at bat: I like him swinging away there

Ummm... Garver couldn't have PH for Wilson there?

This is the new bullpen plan...pitch until you give up a hit (or maybe baserunner) 

That was some Twinkie-ball by Miller there...

 

Thanks, guy.

Are you kidding me?

Wuuut, Dick? Halfway point of the season already, you say? Are you sure? The pitching woes have only reached mid-May levels of desperation.

FRE-dom!!!

Time for some FRE baseball!

Tell you what- I really did not think that 5 runs would win this game, by either team.

 

Hold on to your hats for the FRE...

Molitor is really special. He actually thinks Wilson can hit and doesn't need a pinch hitter. How many managers would let someone who's hitting .125 hit for himself in the last inning when the game is so close?

 

Ummm... Garver couldn't have PH for Wilson there?

 

Hey, if there's a better way than making critical late-inning plate appearances to get your 35 year-old journeyman catcher to suddenly morph into a productive hitter who rewards his 11th MLB franchise for their patience, we'd all like to hear it, bub.

Never a dull moment,

Oh, crap, thanks Dick.

 

"Tell you what, Twins bullpen has been good here..."

 

Base hit.

How bad is this one gonna hurt

 

Are you kidding me?

 

I'm not sure which part of the game (or the season) you're asking about. I can only tell that with the 2018 Twins, the answer is almost certainly 'No'.

 

How bad is this one gonna hurt

None of them hurt anymore, I'm numb to this team. 

WP/PB gonna tie this one up

**** this team, honestly
