Game Thread: Twins v Rockies, 6/25/22 @ 6:10 CDT

AJ has no idea what he's talking about. He throws his changeup 11 percent of the time and opponents are hitting .529 off of it.

Joe Ryan ...

I don't think they ever planned to stretch out Archer that much ... we need Winder back to 'piggy back' with Archer

Not with "only" 13 pitchers.....

Struesel on top, sounds like the Dutch plagarized the Getmans. ?

[wabene]

I'm a fan of AJ in the booth!

I'm not sure I get what you are saying? My point was that I don't think the plan for Archer was to ever pitch more than 4-5 innings, hence that's as stretched out as he is every going to get, and then they would use Winder to piggy back with Archer ... because of all the injuries, I don't think they have another person that can piggy back with another 4 innings and we are left with what we are left with ... which is another discussion

[wsnydes]

Another clean inning.  I like that.

[Squirrel]

ooo ... that was closer than is comfortable but Sanchez made it!

[wsnydes]

Unhook the plow Sanchez!?

[BH67]

Gary Sanchez is halfway toward hitting for the cycle.

OK, a triple ain't gonna happen.  But the above stat in itself is stunning.

[wsnydes]

That sucked!

Nice positioning by Cron.

[wsnydes]

?

[wabene]

So nice when Arraez is up there is no shift and he can get that single up the middle we all know so well. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Watching Gordons a.b.,  My 1st thought as a batter should be . get sanchez to 3rd at the very least, anything more Great, .Anyone think a bench coach or ?? actually says anything, ??  or are the Players today to Selfish ??  Drives me Crazy

Heard it. I guess that doesn't even raise an eyebrow anymore.

[LVTwinsfan]

Wow, great play

[wsnydes]

Can nobody stay upright on the infield?

[Halsey Hall]

Archer retires 12 straight, so what’s the book say, Rocco?

[Doctor Gast]

Got watch to watch Archer live for the 1st time this year. It was awesome. Go Twins!

[David HK]

Archer LOL.  But he got the job done!

[wsnydes]

Archer is done for the day, it appears.

Not a surprise at all.  Nice outing for him.

Everyone involved with that play was stumbling around.  Kinda amusing.

[mrtwinsfan]

Hope Polanco dont fall into Roccos injury platoon plan,  Team really needs his Bat,

My book says let him go another, but that's my book.

[BH67]

Max Kepler has a .562 OPS so far in June.  Perhaps clean-up is not the appropriate spot in the order right now?

[wsnydes]

In play, run(s)!

[Squirrel]

Woohoo … more pie!

[mrtwinsfan]

As im complaining about Garlick batting 5th, to myself,  I got Garlicked !!!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Did we win yet?
