Another leadoff man reaches. And probably their worst hitter

That was a lazy ****ing inning from the middle of the lineup.

Bad pitching will do that. Crooked numbers most innings lately

 

Bet the guy who was hanging around here is loving life

 

He should be. Lead likely down to 2 games. 

 

We can't even get Austin Romine out...yikes.

 

That pitch was way outside, too.

Maybe they should trade Buxton for him.

Except the Twins lost a heartbreaker to Oakland just a few days ago, then turned around and won the next game.

On the deflation scale, Saturday’s loss was a blip compared to last night considering size of the lead, regaining the lead and losing it and the opponent. And the way it ended. Last night s*cked

At least I can take it when someone refutes my point.

Doubtful anyone has ever refuted one of your posts until now

Are double plays a thing anymore?

Guess not.

We’re challenging THAT?

I disagree. The Twins were on more of a skid after that Oakland game. They had lost five of six and were facing a very good and very hot Oakland team. They could have easily laid down and died, yet they rebounded and won the next game.

 

Your defeatism is not reality.

Yuck. I wouldn't challenge that.

 

Nah, those pitches Odorizzi threw that were drilled earlier were dead red over the plate. Crap pitches, frankly.

 

That last homer was a legit good hit on a pitch that was hard to turn on (inside pitch quite high in the zone).

 

Great video summary of Odorizzi's horrible pitches on ESPN just now.....

Wish Bremer was in the booth in NY. The calls always happen to be in the Twins favor from his camera angle.

Meanwhile, Cleveland gets 4 more games at KC after tonight.

It’s not defeatism, it’s an opinion. Every blown loss is bad. Last night was magnificently bad.

At least I remembered to forget to click Like on Brock's post so that he could wonder a little just how serious my snark was. But now I forgot to remember to forget, and clicked Like after all.

Literally the first post of yours I've ever liked.

They gonna reach double digits by the end of the inning?

You know, I never really had a like or dislike for Jake Cave.

 

Until about an hour ago.

Yeah where was he on that last play? In the bullpen?

Two ‘likes’ equal an ‘unlike’ from my experience, so be careful with that.

How is nobody warming? I get everyone is spent but are we just conceding? It’s the 4th!

4th inning and Hicks is up for the third time.

 

I saw it, it did indeed happen

I saw that trade happen, and I think I posted just the same sentiment here.

 

We traded Hicks for a guy who hit that one home run that one time?

 

Heh... funny that Perk would 'take responsibility' for it! 

Odorizzi totally missed the memo that he needed to step up tonight. Now the ESPN guys are just adoring and admiring the Yankees. Sickening.

Missing the playoffs is a very real scenario

I think Baldelli is just crossing his fingers in hopes he can get Smeltzer up in the fifth. Getting a guy up and down a lot isn't awesome.

Are the Yankees using ghost runners?!

I’m close to turning this one off.
