Ok.......Codi did his job. It has to be Foster or Ruiz for 8th.

Save Bummer and Crotchet for tomorrow

Not as much as it used to be

He still throws 97-99 and his change and slider haven't gone anywhere. 

The 2003 Twins would have scored there.

 

Also fuck the twins

They should go with 14, and actually use the 27th man in DHs until Engel returns, when you have a fourth hitter who actually can contribute.

Its asinine to blow throw your bullpen to keep a completely worthless player on the roster.

Pretty sure 13 is the max you can carry.

 

EDIT: Guess that's not the case anymore

That would have been through Abreus legs for a 2 run triple if this was 2003

They had a max in 2020, it was rescinded in 2021. Teams have gone with 14 this year.

Garcia and Mendick also cover third, Lamb is worthless. At least Hamilton has attributes that can serve the team well.

For a second, I was having flashbacks to a particular game the Sox went up huge, only to barely win the game. Meanwhile it ignited the Twins who rode that through a dominant season against the White Sox.

Imagine being 12-21 in a tailspin and not benching Donaldson there.

Our old buddy Colome is in.

Lol it's our old closer in a 6 run game.  Get rekt Twinkies.

Donaldson needs to be benched or better yet thrown out of the game.

You ever just sit back and think how crazy it was that it took 100 years for someone to be like.... maybe getting on base is more important than not getting on base?

And it was so crazy, they made a movie and a book about that very idea for the most part.

 

Except it didnt in actuality. For example: https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/stanked01.shtml

Consensus on this board is just a fine lol. It won’t be anything. Just a lecture.

Ha remember when he got kicked out for kicking dirt all over the plate after hitting a homer? And then his defensive replacement failed to make a play on Abreu that led to them losing the game? Good times.

lol, tim just missed that

Nice inning from Codi Tag Heuer.

If Tyler Duffey is good and will have better numbers in a month, the same is true for Heuer. His peripherals are much, much better.

Sure, but Duffey isn’t dependable right now either.  It’s easy to see why Heuer is struggling. High sinkers and hanging sliders is a far cry from his dominance last year.
