Stay healthy, Jake

Might as well put Urias on no-hitter watch. 15 up. 15 down.

Kyle Hendricks Liam Hendriks That is all.

They did yesterday

Well, fuck this series.

Morton Salt

Twins 0-8 in 10 inning games. Colome serves up the walk off homer in Cleveland.

Ridiculous season so far. On pace for 100 wins with an outdated manager that will fuck up again and again. We’ll see what happens next.

4-inning game. Let’s do this.

Trey Mancini

Twins may finally win a game that isn’t 9 innings. They are 0-12. Up big early in game 2 in Anaheim.

I like Chris Russo. He’s fun. I don’t agree with him on the La Russa stuff, but he’s a good fan and he calls out a lot of bullshit, which I appreciate.

Manfred literally should send a memo to everyone- when it comes to 3-0 pitches during what you perceive to be a blowout, you are not to give a take sign to the player. The pitcher and his team should not expect a take in any situation, and nobody is allowed to be offended publicly at swinging at a pitch. Retaliation will be met with severe punishment. There. One unwritten rule solved.

The thing with the schedule is that the Sox are probably getting things that they wanted with the 2021 schedule. They took some inconveniences during the rebuild because they knew it didn't matter. This year they have road trips that make sense. They started on the West Coast to get it over with. They have Monday and Thursday off the last week of the season, and are home the final weekend. These are good things and not just random coincidences. They were bargained years ago.

31 games in 31 days starting Friday. Would love to be 44-29 or better a month from now.

This has always been a 12:10 game. Both originally had Thursday off.

He was given a free pass to be offended because of our idiot manager. If Tony did nothing, I really think the Twins would have ignored it. It was a position player!!!

The entire team needs to tell him his opinion about 3-0 taking in today’s baseball is wrong, and he needs to change his opinion because the next time it happens, we’re hitting whether you give the sign or not. And if you don’t like it, retire again.

I wonder how much Joe McEwing can be the bridge between the players and La Russa. He’s been around these guys and the day-to-day game for years now. This team badly needs a meeting in New York and Tony needs to start understanding the game has changed whether he likes it or not. The 3-0 take in a blowout vs a position player should have been universally panned. Even against a regular pitcher, why is that respect? The pitcher should be trying to execute a pitch, and the hitter is trying to get on base...I’d say that’s respecting the game more than taking a pitch.

Two nights in NYC before they play a game there, after all this self inflicted bullshit. What could go wrong? Need Giolito to step up and be a leader, and then they need to have an intervention with Grandpa before they play the Yankees.

Definitely give Vaughn a day off tomorrow. Then he can dominate Yankee Stadium on Friday.

Lol

Don’t they know Nick is going for 3000?

Breaking: Grandal walks

It was really stupid for Tony to call for a take 3-0. How about this memo to everyone in baseball...as a matter of respect, taking 3-0 is out the window for everyone. Yes, there will still be takes as a matter of strategy, but as long as everyone is on the same page, no more grooving 3-0 fastballs and expecting a take.
