Depends on how one defines excited

At this stage, my bar is quite low

The good news is..... we still have 24 outs left.

Just turned the game on then immediately turned it off. Last night's implosion may have been the final nail in the coffin of playoff hopes. 

If Mahle can put up a few 0's, surely we can score 5+ runs

I just can’t sit through this again tonight

Gray had a hamstring issue last night.

Thought he had hamstring issue so pulled

I don’t see what was wrong about going after Mahle, do you?

He improved (we thought, or perhaps think) the starting rotation. But he was just off the IL, in Cincy, damaged, and I see him as a 4-5 ERA mediocre pitcher. Some loved to say ballpark and visiting splits, but I never liked him since his wildness broke Buxton's hand. We had to get something, and we probably paid too much. But the guys have to make more "right" choices. Everybody guesses the future, but our guys are not doing so well. The tragedy was the FO had us in the position that we had to settle for the best of the rest since last off season, and had to overpay for it. I was ambivalent as far as the acquisition being Mahle. I wanted better than Mahle, for sure, all year, and at the deadline.

Make that 21, and Cease with a perfect game through 2.

Mahle still around 88-90mph

Not good. I'm just hoping he's healthy for next year at this point.

No Twins coach or advisor looked at Mahle’s bullpens and said, “he’s not ready”?

Anybody else not have the game on FOX? I have college football still.

Same, unfortunately 

I can’t watch tonight but checking on Gameday, Mahle looks like he has lost his velocity again.  Is this true?  

There went Cease's perfect game. No-hitter in tact. Minimum batters faced.

i finally got it about 5 minutes after Tulsa/Wyoming ended, which for whatever reason was a simulcast qwith FS1. I missed all the crap that happened. However I am thrilled to hear Provus on my TV.

Yes it is according to beat writers.

He started the game around 93mph, though quickly dropped down to about 89, I've seen a few at 87 but that could of been the splitter

We've gotten A.J. and Adam Amin on some games here. 

It's actually Cory Provus doing the game on Fox with A.J. tonight. Provus is pretty damn good. I can see him taking over for Bremer, when Dickie decides to retire. Don't know how long I'll be able to stomach a Sox beat down, so if they keep piling on, I may bug out early to watch Svengoolie.

He's out...velo was down again. Not good. 

Are Winder, Ober and Dobnak returning this month?

The Rays shutting out the Yankees again tonight, however that game is still in progress. 

last thing we need is a Yankees team steaming hot mad and waiting to take some frustrations out on the next team they play (which is the Twins, next week)
 

 

Another SP going down....what to say?

Well, some truly amazing news, TBR leading NYY 2-0 bottom of the 6th. When was the last time NYY scored a run against TBR? Could it be down to a 4 game lead in East. And Toronto, and Baltimore for that matter, are not out of it either......amazing.

Great minds think alike!

Mahle another bust?  Serves us right for getting excited.  Zero faith left with front office.  Who did we lose for him?

First game back.  Really not good.

Steaming hot or not, NYY will get well when Twins roll into town. They always do. It's Tradition.

Its more like instinct....salmon returning to stream to spawn type behavior.
