  1. Is it too cheap for me to blame ownership directly for this loss?

    I don’t even know what we do differently, to be honest. If the guys we’re playing aren’t going to hit, and the guys we’re paying aren’t going to pitch, we’re in for a *long* season.

  2. Me at the beginning of the month: enough NFL draft talk, it’s baseball season

    Me now: I hope they don’t trade up for Drake Maye.

  3. I still believe in this team. Idk if y’all have been watching cleveland but they might be the luckiest baseball team of all time. Clase sucks now and he’s been bailed out by his defense so hard

  4. Ah yes, as we all expected, of the Twins 3 best hitters, Buxton is the only one left healthy

  5. Look, I get that people want so desperately for the “it’s still early” excuse to be true. But you’re all going to need to accept sooner than later that this is going to be a 70 win season at absolute best. Year number 4 of absolutely dog shit batting. It’s game 9 and you have more than double the men left on base than the next closest team. This is not a winning formula. Who could’ve guessed cutting the payroll would lead to a worse team.
