Who is going to the games in Anaheim next week?

Just saw Arraez. He made an out. I don’t think he’s gonna stick in the bigs.

SCHOOP PAPA DOOP!!!!!!!!

And they haven't hit a HR in like a half hour now, either.

 

Things are pretty bad.

You were saying?

 

A lot of negative posts for a 15-4 game.

 

You have to admit the middle innings have been a bitter disappointment when you consider that they were on pace to win 30-0 after three.

That should have been a 3 run homer for Schoop, but that idiot Baldelli removed Polanco.

Schoop’s shoulder seems okay today.

Phew! The game was getting WAY too close for my taste...

Plus winning 30-0 would have evened up the run differential between the first place Astros and second place Twins.

pfft. Can't pull the ball like a real man does.

Let’s nobody get hurt here, K?

Or ffs ... that was funny

That would have also pushed our 3rd order wins up by almost 1.3, and Fangraphs would have loved us.

 

It's 65 degrees but I believe the roof is closed. Hasn't seemed to matter if it's open or closed this series though. I think as long as it's above 60 degrees this team can mash.

I hope they can do even better...come October/November.

 

(I can't believe that's my biggest concern these days.)

Carew tied the stole-home record in the first half of the season, then stopped stealing home after the All Star game. 

Or maybe he just hasn't had his good stuff for a couple games.

See previous statement about hitters smoking it.

 

Perhaps there is a limited supply of good stuff?

They stopped pitching from the windup. 

 

 

Almost every Twins fly ball feels like it could be a homer. Just think... by getting all worked up about every warning track fly ball going back to when he started announcing, Bremer has been training for this season his whole career.

Must have been the wind there...

Mariner fans used to see CJ Cron all the time when he was an Angel. They're probably wondering what special hell they've fallen into where CJ Cron is 8 for 12 in this series with multiple dingers.

Pitchers stopped pitching from the windup...which was often the case with runners on (only) 3rd...and 3rd basemen actually started holding him like 1st basemen

I wonder if the posters at Rays Daily are cursing their FO for letting Cron go for nothing.

ftfy.

That’s nothing. Our announcers just tied the record for saying “hard hittin’ Mark Whitten” in one broadcast. And Whitten isn’t even playing any more!

Have to take Tony O on every road trip now, I’d think.

ftfy.

Oh ffs ... that was even funnier.

OK, but he ain't sittin' shotgun.

That wasn’t pretty.

As much fun as this has been, maybe the next time the Twins score 20 runs in a game they could do it in Central or Eastern time so that the last 3 runs cross the plate on the same day that the first 17 did.

Prolly just get the out at first, even though the throw beat him.

 

Prolly Arraez should catch that, too.
