Welp, there went the season
The Twins have made a couple mad dashes to win the division from behind. Still love the Detroit one. Losing 2 games at home to a crappy team this far in the hole? It's done. At least we made it to memorial day (would have preferred Flag Day [June 4th]). Done with Donaldson. Done with Sano. Done with every other player on IL or should be on IL. I can't believe I put so much time into following this and waiting for it to happen and this is what I'm left with. If this was a mediocre team going into the season I would follow it as such, and judge it as such. This is a post season team that I'm going to judge as such. Thank you for your time

Done with Sano. Don't need his 20 HR's a season. I want contact. I want the defense having to make plays on. I don't need Sano's empty AB's He may have had a few days of game changing hits, but he also has months of rally killing at bats. Good day sir, and take your non-contact hitting skills elsewhere

Game Recap: Twins 6, Royals 5
Larnach and Kirillof not a lot of...energy when talking to media. Maybe it's good they save it for the field

I know we have bigger fish to fry, but Simmons bunt attempt was awful. Broadcast crew applauded his effort....not this guy. I knew in HS not to bunt without pushing ball down. I recognize I was not facing 90mph FB, but you get paid millions. End of rant

The Twins Need Josh Donaldson
Ugggh. This is not the article I wanted to read. My quick 2 cents...Love Donaldson's arm. I never hold my breath on a throw that might be tight, but he's made a couple throws that were 'easy' that cost the team. He was meh overall last year for his value and so far has been meh this year. I know he has a negative xBA, but he just doesn't seem to make consistent solid contact (new band name). I hope he comes through and this is the year we're paying him for. The next two may be sunken cost if the current performance continues. Come on Josh, let's not make this a sucky contract

Arraez to the 10-day IL
Is he on the Mets?

What is the biggest problem with this Twins team?
I think the biggest problem (bullpen aside for a second) is the offense in two parts. We score early and seem to go stagnant the last 4 or 5 innings. I know there are instances like the 8th inning on Tuesday, but to my eyes that how it seems to go game after game. Part of the problem is the horrendous RISP. I'd hate to see how many lead-off doubles have returned to the dugout from said base. I'm not going to dive into numbers. This is eye test only, but that's what a fan does.

I assume you've seen this since post, but Buxton had a set back. He can't decelerate. As you said, if it's not one thing it's another

I'm from the future so I know we score. But that's spot on. This pitcher is meh and as another poster noted we have a habit of making scrubs look great
