Ryan looks very below average. 

Gallo and Bellinger, two of the easiest outs in all of baseball

That’s depressing as hell.

Bellinger would be hitting 4th for the Twins 

What is up with Joe Ryan? I thought this guy would be good.

Hate to think it, especially so early in the game, but that Gallo double may just be the game.  The subsequent double just icing on the cake for the Dodgers. 

Outclassed. Best to tune back in Friday when we have an actual chance of winning 

Gallo vs Twins- 5-10

rest of league .150 BA

8 and 9 hitters have the highest OPS against the Twins. Amazing

He’s been the worst hitter in baseball over the past 2 years and it’s not close. 
 

well, Gallo is the closest lol

He is great against teams like Detroit and KC. His numbers are brutal against playoff quality bats

Pretty hard to disagree with that comment.

I think that was the joke

Thanks!

Buxton & Correa need to earn their $$$

How many 2 out hits can we string together?

Sub-300 OBP, lots of K’s, but huge power??

That’s leadoff for Rocco.

However, we need to keep in mind that he's a young pitcher still very early in his career.  He may well get better as his career progresses.

The sad part is that he's about the best starter we have right now, with an incomplete for Tyler Mahle at this point.

A.A.A..A.. + PITCHER

Gonna step out momentarily to put some mail in the mail, relieve myself, and unload (or restart as needed) the drier.

 

Take good care of the game while i am out.

I don't know... Something still seems wrong with it.

A comeback is technically possible for the Twins tonight. Will I be up to watch it? Almost certainly not.

TMI

The book on Joe Ryan appears to be firmly out 

Ryan is a decent pitcher, a good #4 and capable of fitting in as a #3 pitcher. Joe has trouble with teams that lay off the high stuff and he gets whacked on pitches down in the zone. However, if he harnesses his stuff and controls where the ball goes he can be very effective.

Not necessarily.
