Red Sox announcer thinks that Bradley might have trapped the ball against the wall

My view of the replay showed glove between the ball and the wall.

 

If it annoys the others, they don’t take your allegedly non-annoyed tone. We’re all fans here, fella.

I'm doing it for them, and yes we're all fans, never said otherwise. 

 

please , what does he have 80 AB’s , watch as all numbers those level out to crap

 

He has a career .819 OPS, which this year would put him at 69th in all of baseball.  In other words, the 3rd best hitter on a team.  If that's crap, you have an insanely unrealistic expectation of Sano.

c,MON  Twins, looking rough last few games with alot of Blunders, And  to many k,s

May looking good of late. 

From 2016-2019, with RISP sano is 76-320 (.237 BA), with 125 k’s, 113 RBI and an OPS around .720

Lately I'm starting to feel more confident about May in high leverage late inning situations.

 

Every good team throughout the years has had at least a 3 game losing streak. Might as well get it out of the way now

Y'know, I have been saying that it's most important to get on a hot streak late in the year so a team can use momentum to carry them into the postseason... and the April-May winning flurry was never going to last. Ideally they'd play .500 ball for the next month or two and kick it up a gear in August/September.

As this series plays out, I think at the very least it will give the Twins brass a dose of reality. We won't be playing the Tigers, Royals, and White Sox in October. The Twins have to be a better team than they are now...

 

The crazy thing is that it's the offense that looks exposed. Let's hope that changes here in the next 2 innings.

 

I hope Garver can shake off that awful gut punch of a mistake right about now.

May had a good inning there. Good to see from this beleaguered bullpen.

Yup. Boston's a better team than their record thanks to their slow start, so it's not like we're flailing against a bad team.

 

And if the Twins are going to go through a bad stretch maybe it's better that it happens now, before the ASB, when it might prod the front office into making a couple of moves to shore up some weaknesses.

Not much game left here, boys. Let's get some runs on the board!

Cleveland needs to get closer IMO. Been playing awfully flat, and it’s been going on longer than the past three games

Wait..wut? They're only playing 7.5 tonight?

I hate Pizza Ranch. I hate the Red Sox too.

 

Just had to get that off my chest. Sorry.

Garver must atone

Workman leads the league in arm hair

It was a great catch, darn it.

*groan*

 

Let me know how Sano does in five years. Or ten. Or after he has a career-changing concussion.

 

Or if he ever starts catching.

Except people are saying Sano can't hit, and not as well as Mauer.....I mean, he's no Hall of famer, but to say he can't hit, or isn't clutch, ignores the actual outcomes Sano has produced.

Another Strat-O-Matic update: The Twins are currently losing 8-7 in the bottom of the 7th. Jake Cave is a single short of the cycle, and Mike Morin just blew a one run lead in the top of the 7th. 

 

Wait..wut? They're only playing 7.5 tonight?

Yep, they're heading home for some early evening relaxation.

Think Garver will run here,??    lol

Cruz could salvage the season AND the game thread, with just one swing here!

Sorry, but I love Pizza Ranch...

Does it matter if a player traps the ball on the wall? As long as it doesn't hit the ground?

 

Serious question.

Cruz miss-le

Kruz, Ouch
