    This is reminiscent of ‘65 when Killebrew, in the final game before the all-star break, hit the huge walk-off against the Yankees to pound a huge nail into their coffin and solidify the Twins hold on

    Listening to Cory Provus is a gift I am enormously grateful for. Nobody will ever replace Herb Carneal for me, but Provus is really, really good.

    OMG I was just thinking the same thing!!! Well, actually that yardwork made me wish it were 65 outside and that a Killibrew root beer would taste good, but otherwise...

8 k's for Larnach the last two days. Ouch.

For some reason we can get some pitchers so close to their 90+ percentile but don’t have that last tweak to unlock it. Berrios has shown plenty of flashes that he could be the best pitcher in baseball. Even with these struggles he’s still #28 ranked fWAR for qualified MLB pitchers. 

The best ability is durability but that's part of the reason why he's ranked so high in fWAR not only this year but over the last five plus years. It's an accrual stat so him being a lock for 180+ innings every year helps him climb that list.

Where was this team during the last three months? We are unstoppable.

    Someone washed out the Gatorade cooler and added fresh K00l-Aid.  This is NOT the same team it was during the first 3 months of the season.

    Or it could be the Tigers. 

    Donaldson didn't even look at Diaz to make the decision to take home. That seems like the best plan. Don't let Diaz stop the runs from scoring.

    We can try

    to understand

    the Sticky Rule's effect on man.

    Well now, I pitch low and I pitch high
    And if I do neither, a dinger flies
    Got the wings of Blyleven on my shoes
    I'm a big Twins fan and I just can't lose
    You know it's alright, it's okay
    I'll live to see another day
    We can try to understand
    The sticky rule's effect on man…

    True, very true.  The other blue/orange team (Astros)  in the AL, probably would not have let this happen.

    Anybody know why Kepler pointed toward the tigers dugout after his homer run? Then his next at bat got some chin music? Just a coincidence? Or something happen I missed?

     

    Well before the GS, why is Rogers looking at his thumb or finger?

    You say that like it’s a bad thing. He’s been extremely durable, yes.
