Glad we got that 9 run lead....

 

Well 8 now

And there is activity in the bullpen. Can’t see who’s up from here.

Give the Sox credit, they're not mailing in their AB's.

Berrios and the dreaded 5th inning with a big a$$ lead.

Berrios looks to be back to pre-all star Berrios; tons of movement on his pitches, but not nearly enough consistency in putting them where he wants.

Cron just needs that triple.

Maybe, the next time he comes up, if there is a guy on base, Cron can hit what should be a HR. BUT, the guy on base waits (for like 20 minutes) for Cron to catch him and has Cron touch home before him. That would credit Cron with a triple I believe as long as Cron doesn’t touch any other base before the runner already on.

 

Of course, that probably violates unwritten rules.

And I just heard some good insight from Bert regarding pitch selection.

 

 

Too much movement there for Jose

Scurry on down there and check it out, ya squirrel

They aren’t as friendly to squirrels here and there is too much security between me and the bp

Challenging a play up 7? Rocco trying to get Rosario plunked?

Yup. From what I read he is the only modern-day starting pitcher to have a 15 run lead in a game and not get the win (May 18 vs Seattle). He got yanked in that game in the dreaded 5th.

 

The Twins would not even hurt a Fry.

Don't mean to toot my own horn but I did mention something about getting rid of Cron yesterday and ever since he's been on a tear.

And he’s back for another.

You think that’s something? Well, I dropped Cron and Schoop from my fantasy team. . . . Though that was a month ago. . . . So probably no connection there.

If he doesn’t get this out time to pull him.

Probably one of Berrios' better August starts, but he's still not sharp

So, home field advantage(?) to the opposition in the playoffs seems like a recipe for success for the Twins this year

Berrios has three wild pitches. But Castro could have done better on those pitches.

Get out of the way jose!

He's got great stuff today, but is having trouble locating it.

At least we have some reason to have a slightly lower level of angst over the BP than before.

Yeah Pineda is the ace of this staff now. He's the only one I trust at the moment in a big game.

Oh...Berrios!!! That's all I'm going to say...Oh Berrios.

Good lord jose

Berrios has three wild pitches. But Castro could have done better on those pitches.

From my vantage point, I’m not sure about that

Two runs have been scored on Wild Pitches, for what it's worth.

 

Dude's also thrown 4 WPs (another just now). Seems OK for the most part, but he's a bit off still.

Make that 4 wild pitches. That last one was terrible.

Wow, Berrios.
