Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Anyone know what the head-to-head homer totals are between the Sox and Twins this year?

Nice job Eloy
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Everyone in the organization should be fired if they lose 90 or more next year.

Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Probably same people who are pissed Robert hasn’t been called up yet livid that the Sox lost a year on Kopech.

Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
He pitched fine against the Astros and Mets...but by all means, keep using the word “tank” like it’s a four letter word.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
I guarantee they will be in on every starting pitcher the Sox are this offseason. They’ve tried throwing big money at starters in recent years.

Yoan pulling off the ball again of late and chasing some garbage pitches.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
I don’t care about how they match up in the postseason. I care more about how are the Sox supposed to significantly close the gap between them next year. Just like the Sox, the Twins have a ton of money to spend.

Kepler, Rosario, Buxton, Polanco, Garver, Sano, Arraz is a pretty damn good core considering how good they seem to do at developing hitters. I bet they’re active going after pitching in the offseason as well.

Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Cease threw far too many sliders today. Not a good idea when it’s his 3rd best pitch.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Sox are so far behind the Twins in terms of talent and coaching, it’s not even funny.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Good god, this is pathetic
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
High fastball and Eloy pounds it into the ground. I’m thrilled the organization is considering fixing his stance/swing, as he reminds me so much of Avi his first few years.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
It’s been apparent since May that Cease would struggle with his command in the majors.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Robert has many of the same holes Eloy does at the plate. Struggles with velocity up and in and chases any and all sliders. Madrigal shouldn’t have a big adjustment.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
He has no chance in the majors with his current fastball command. I’ve never seen someone miss high on his fastball so often.
-
Twins @ Sox 8/29 Berrios vs Cease
Wouldn’t mind him having a lefty opener to try and limit how many lefties he faces in the lineup.

8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
Tim is great hitting the slider.
-
8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
Bullshit call by the umpire, but it must be nice to have catchers try to frame. Castillo wasn’t even trying last inning.
-
8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
It’s beyond awful, but I’m confident he won’t be back.
-
8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
Or the coaches are too stubborn to preach launch angle. You can’t tell me the Twins or Astros wouldn’t excel at getting Eloy to elevate instead of pounding the ball into the ground.
-
8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
Eloy strikes out without seeing a strike. This whole team strikes out too much and refuses to walk.
-
8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
Especially with the juiced ball. Everyone and their mother hits double digits, and the Sox can’t find a DH that can hit above .200 with minimal power.
-

Amazing that Castillo is going to stay on the roster all season.
