Positivity: Winder and Thielbar are good. Wallner hit a home run
Ryan is not having a great back half of the year…
Man am I ready for hockey season.
You know if you ignore the first 5 innings, we did pretty well!
Dear Josh, I feel like I can call you Josh because you and me are so alike. I’d like to meet you one day, it would be great to have a catch. I know I can’t throw as fast as you but I think you’d be impressed with my speed. I love your hair, you run fast. Did you have a good relationship with your father? Me neither. These are all things we can talk about and more. I know you have no been getting my letters because I know you would write back if you did. I hope you write back this time, and we can become good friends. I am sure our relationship would be a real home run
Welp, facing a shitty lefty tomorrow I’m not expecting any better.
Again not the greatest offensive performance but there were chances. So many double plays even without Correa hitting into another.
Wallner can never see St. Paul again. DFA Gallo
Suboptimal. Perhaps less double plays might’ve helped.
4 hits…
Twins should have made some trades before the deadline
# I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING TO FIRE RESIDENT SHITTER DAVID POPKINS
As a newer baseball fan, I have a question for the long-time fans: do you see a starting pitcher just fall off a cliff like this much? What is there to be done about it?
Football season can’t come soon enough…
Joe Ryan was never going to be that good forever. He’s slightly above average. That’s all he is
Think I’m going to take a break for a while. Even when we win, it’s not fun to watch this team.
Spencer Steer would be leading this team in BA, RBIs and would be 2nd in HRs. Just saying.
If we had scored more runs or allowed fewer runs, the result might have been different
Meh… 8 days ago the Twins had a 2 game lead.
Then lost 6 of 7.
Today the Twins have a 2 game lead.
Best of the lousist….
Joe Ryan with a cool 25 HR allowed on the year. League may have figured him out.
Joe Ryan is a #4 starter. Prove me wrong.
