May 31, 20197 yr LISTEN, THE TWINS LOST BY 11 RUNS. THEY STILL HAVE THE BEST RECORD IN BASEBALL BUT OBVIOUSLY, THINGS ARE FALLING APART. THE BULLPEN IS A MESS, PEREZ IS A FLUKE, AND BUXTON IS HIDING AN INJURY. fill in hot takes below
May 31, 20197 yr ONE STINKING LOSE? TRUST ME THERE GOING TO BE OK! NONE OF TEH OTEHR POSTERS HEAR ARE TRUE FANS ACCEPT ME!
May 31, 20197 yr OMG! For ONE NIGHT we see how the other half has been living playing against us! I feel guilty as a fan! I promise we will lose another game or two here or there and try to have a few more close victories. I am sorry our FO looks so smart and built a great and fun team with power, production, defense, versatility, quality SP and a decent/good bullpen with talent to spare to make a trade or two to get even better. We probably deserved a loss like tonight. May our sacrifice of a worn-edged Homer Hankie on a pure be a suitable sacrifice to the baseball gods. (Anyone actually have one they want to do that with)? Damnit! My sarcasm button is stuck and my tongue is wearing on my cheek! (Wink)

May 31, 20197 yr The Twins are on pace to win 110 games and have the best record in baseball! Will they? Probably not. The team is on pace for 310 home runs! Will they? Probably not. Rosario is on pace to hit 50 home runs! Will he? Probably not. The road has been smooth and we've been cruising! Will be there be bumps in the road? There will be bumps in the road! There most likely will be potholes in the road! There will be road construction! There will be detours onto winding rural roads! There may be ditches! Stalled engines! All while everyone is shouting, "Are we there yet?" Enjoy the ride! Edited May 31, 20197 yr by ScrapTheNickname
May 31, 20197 yr It's not panic but I don't think it's unreasonable to question this pitching staff. I certainly wouldn't have faith in any of them except Berrios long-term.
May 31, 20197 yr I'm not going to parse through the record books but I'm fairly confident every team in history has given up more than ten runs and have lost by at least that same margin. It it were to happen all four games in this series I'd certainly begin to worry and push for bolstering our pitching staff. This game was like most roads in MN right now - a big pothole.
May 31, 20197 yr We did get thumped that part didnt really bother me because it happens, what I didnt like was all the fielding errors and the part were Rosie didnt hustle for the ball. Is that why he was pulled that inning?
May 31, 20197 yr Just another loss to a good team. Twins have a losing record against the good teams. Nothing new here.
May 31, 20197 yr Just be sure you know where your towel is.Well, I threw it in last night so I know exactly where it is! Maybe next year. Edited May 31, 20197 yr by wsnydes
May 31, 20197 yr I knew they were a fluke. Anyone can have the best record in baseball through 2 months. Everybody hits home runs, that doesn't make them special. This is it. They're coming down to earth, and it's going to be messy. Might as well start trading off pieces now to build toward 2020. Maybe next year will be our year guys.
May 31, 20197 yr A lot of you really suck at this.Just sayin’.YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER! YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER! THIS WHOLE THREAD IS OUT OF ORDER!

May 31, 20197 yr FIRST, EVERYBODY CALM DOWN!!! STOP RUNNING AROUND IN YOUR UNDERWEAR, WAVING YOUR ARMS AND SCREAMING, "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE DIE DIE!!" INSTEAD, LEARN TO SCREAM, "IT'S JUST A GAME! BASEBALL'S NOT MY LIFE! I GOTTA STOP DRINKING SO MUCH COFFEE! WINTER IS COMING! TAX DAY IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! DID I LEAVE THE STOVE ON? WHERE ARE MY SOCKS?? WHY ARE ALL YOU PEOPLE STARING AT ME? STOP IT, STOP IT!! WHY DO I SEE BUGS IN THE CORNER OF MY PERIPHERAL VISION? AM I GETTING PARANOID?? OH GOD, I'M GETTING PARANOID! YOU'RE A SPY, AREN'T YOU? YEAH, YOU DRESS LIKE A COP, BUT YOU'RE A SPY! WHY ARE YOU HANDCUFFING ME? I'M BEING KIDNAPPED BY RUSSIAN SPIES!!!

May 31, 20197 yr A lot of you really suck at this.Just sayin’.The emotional letdown is too much to overcome. I'm spent. I can't muster much more energy than what is required to type this post.
May 31, 20197 yr I knew something like last night was going to happen. We should have known it was going to lead to this when we signed Nolasco. It's his fault. And Pelfrey's.
May 31, 20197 yr Just remember, we lost a game 11-0 to the Astros like a month ago, then took the next two....
