Weird, given how Thielbar has a very low home run rate. You should consider playing the lottery. 

Expand  

Maybe I should buy a ticket or two for the next Powerball drawing!

[wabene]

Thielbar has been great, I forgive him

Gray out of the game after 59 pitches?

Hate to use you own comment but - It's the game today.

Regardless of how you draw it up, Duran is light years better and was at 11 pitches. No other manager yanks him for Thielbar there 

Expand  

Actually, loads of managers yank him after one inning because this isn’t the postseason. You should watch how other teams manage more before making that statement.

You Rocco apologists are unbelievable. Do you enjoy living in a state where all the pro teams are miserably horrible and are run by people that care more about making money than winning championships?

[h2oface]

Looks like Correa may get another chance to be a hero.......

Thielbar is way better than average. And he’s given up fewer homers than Duran.

Expand  

Don't disagree with being better than average, but of the 10 pitchers that have pitched today his ERA is 8th.

Every damn time the twins have had the opportunity this year to grow the lead in the division or get back into first place (today), Rocco does something extremely stupid to lose. If they don’t make the playoffs there are a dozen games we can look back on as factors decided by their idiot manager.

Expand  

Wow just wow . I think you should be in charge

I’m not even a Rocco apologist. I’m only saying you should watch more baseball before claiming he just did something no other manager would do. I see managers do what Rocco just did all the time. 

[wabene]

Sonny looked like a surgeon, 39 pitches through 3, tweaked his hammy, then was all over the place after that.

Miserably horrible would be the Nats not Twins.  Jets not Vikes

Reliever ERA is borderline useless. Thielbar’s FIP is around 2.6. He has been *very* good this season.

Correa is so underwhelming in a big spot...

There’s a lot of teams that would like to be in the horrible Twins position.
