You honestly don’t see the difference between bundy CRUISING at 58 pitches after 5 innings and What you just saw from gray in that inning? You really don’t? Lol don’t hurt yourself stretching so hard to try and make a point

Yeah, Gray was really struggling before that inning wasn't he? I see your point.

You realize Rocco takes the starters out literally to avoid those innings and you're on here multiple days a week complaining about it, right? You don't get to have it both ways. Either want Rocco to have a quick hook or you don't. And you very clearly don't. So when Rocco leaves a starter in there to get out of it himself like you're constantly saying he should you don't get to complain about it without your hypocrisy being called out. Just embrace that your strategy doesn't work every time just like Rocco's doesn't. It'll be ok.

At some point this team will completely collapse.  If this is the best we have, then I could care less if we make the playoffs.  Where would this team be without Correa, probably on their way to a similar record as last season.

How much are you willing to bet on this?

Took Squirrel’s advice and switched over to the Texas broadcast of innings 4-6, where I heard the tidbit that the Twins are hitting .262 this season with RISP. Sure doesn’t seem like it.

8.3

(that was my next question: how many?)

 

What is a standard unit of suck? A tootsie pop?

Ouch.

to be fair I have no doubt that the rookie lefty doesn't get a hit off Thielbar, which is when I posted it.

Taylor Rogers had a 5.59 ERA last month and has given up 4 runs in 3 innings in July, for those still upset about that trade. 

He has stunk with a stink reminiscent of that wafting out of the Twins pen.

Twins will take a lead (probably by multiple runs) before the 9th inning only to blow it. I've seen this movie many times. The only question is whether Garver delievers the knockout punch. 

Gotta love when the blind squirrel finds one.

OK. Turn off the game. We'll let you know how things turn out

No, how much are you willing to bet that this team will collapse completely at some point?

Lol oh stop, you’re being unreasonable. No one said any strategy works ALL the time. And no one is blaming rocco for what happened tonight. And besides, Gray had already melted down before he reached your magical third time through the order. So should rocco pull starters BEFORE they even get to that point now? Just to be safe? Just to guard against the 6 run inning that happens a time or two a year? Should he have had someone ready to come in to start the 5th? Just in case? So the vaunted bullpen can save us? Just stop. And again, if I were on here complaining that he got pulled maybe you’d have a point.

They are entertaining and unpredictable. I'm still not ready to call them a good team, but they are worth watching.

Nice strike 3 pitch

Any idea what i am missing by not scoreboard watching?

Fun fact. 5 Twins wives are pregnant presently. A mass baby shower was held.  Maybe that's the problem.

He’s asking you how much you’d be willing to bet against them, nice try though

Buxton on first. Scoring position?

Buxton hit by pitch and neither Rocco or the trainer came out. That is .........unusual.

Thank goodness have Monday off, as we will use msot of the bullpen tonight. Maybe Winder can piggy-back with Bunday on Sunday.

It’s cool when Twins wives have twins
