Did colome blow a single save last year?  Dude was living on borrowed time.  Hard hit right at 'em was his saving grace quite often last year.

Closer or not, they need that dude to be a high leverage guy

He actually had a really good season last year in terms of hard hit % and exit velo. His stuff just isn't that good and over the course of a full season, it'll show itself.

Rogers was pretty bad last year. I remember we hit him pretty well.

Donaldson limbs into second base and is taken out after the inning ends. Baseball season is officially a go. 

My buddy is a Twins fan, I bet him $100 that Donaldson doesn't play 400 games for Minnesota in 4 seasons. Obviously had a nice benefit of a 60 game schedule after the fact but I'm not sure he even plays 300 for Minnesota.

he had a 4.44 SIERRA, 32% hard hit and didn't give up a single HR, somehow. Luck be a closer.

The game against KC where he didn't backup Grandal behind the plate and the ball went under Grandal's legs cause he was busy checking out for the dugout for some reason. Made up for it with that walk off though

I think he only sucked against the Sox. 

Damn Hader is so good when he's anywhere near the zone.

Hader throwing 100 MPH now with that rise on his fastball. LIterally unfair. He was untouchable at 95-96. He's never thrown anywhere near this hard consistently. He's had peaks. See if it holds.

He also blew a couple of games against the Pirates and Brewers. All I know is that he lost his job to Romo late in the season.

First and third no one out for Brewers

Twins lose!

Game over!!!  Brewers win!

The pitching match up of Keller/Gibson in KC/Texas was atrocious.  I mean, no surprise, I guess but Gibson was .1 5 earnies.  Gonna be a long year in Texas.  People who think Sox should have signed Dahl will enjoy this one.

Pad's Dbacks is a wild one

Twins Lose

Cleveland loses

Cubs lose

Good day for White Sox Fans.

Because his flyball rate was 9%. Luck had nothing to do with it. His cutter forced hitters into driving the ball straight into the ground.

Colome has been a ticking time bomb, hope he blows up this year

I wish he signed in the NL or literally anyone but the Twins, so I wouldn’t have to root for his demise

Scoreboard watching on game 1, got to love it lol
