May 25, 20223 yr Twins have the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th. Nobody out, down by 2. It feels like they've won this exact game ~10 times already this season.
May 25, 20223 yr Arraez is such a remarkable hitter. I wish the Sox had someone like that in their lineup. Or ~7 of them. Edited May 25, 20223 yr by maxjusttyped
May 25, 20223 yr Great catch by Torkelson to end the game! Twins finally drop a game vs a bad team. They had won 6 in a row vs the A's/Royals/Tigers combined.

May 25, 20223 yr 2 minutes ago, fathom said: He’s what Madrigal was supposed to be with the bat. This has been said about every slap hitter that does well against the Sox, but with Arraez it's actually true.
May 25, 20223 yr Still have to weather nine more against KC (4) and Detroit (5). Not going to get K's like that against Correa and Kepler with bases loaded on a consistent basis too often in Minny. But the Twins with Buxton struggling mightily and not adjusting to a DH role were definitely due for a loss even facing a bullpen starter. He's back in CF tmrw, supposedly.

May 27, 20223 yr 3 hours ago, fathom said: Twins blew their lead but have bases loaded no outs now. Barlow has been unbelievable this year. Fortunate to get the bottom of the order, but Gordon and Kepler aren't easy outs…and their rookie 1B was 2/3 in the game before he was the first out via K. Ball didn’t leave the infield after dicing up Gordon with a curve.
May 28, 20223 yr Twins already up 4-0 over KC after 1. Looks like they'll be making up another half game on the Sox tonight.
May 28, 20223 yr Witt grounded into a DP with bases loaded and one out. That ended the KC momentum. 6-4. Pretty fortunate to have Buxton out/struggling, but still can’t consistently rely on the Royals and Tigers to bring them back to the pack.
May 28, 20223 yr Witt Jr. really tearing the cover off the ball recently but still might not be enough.
May 30, 20223 yr Zack Greinke (his looks the most serious), Sonny Gray (pec tightness, might only miss a start or two) and Royce Lewis (collision with CF wall) all injured in action on Sunday...
June 1, 20223 yr Twins’ upcoming June schedule (26 games) After last two (2) against DET @ Toronto Yankees Rays @Mariners @DBacks Guardians Rockies @Guardians (5 game series)
June 3, 20223 yr Twins fans are concerned about their team only playing to a ~93 win pace against all of these bad teams. They could have built a large cushion over the last few weeks but fortunately did not.

June 3, 20223 yr https://nypost.com/2022/06/02/jim-kaat-uses-offensive-nickname-for-yankees-nestor-cortes/ Apparently the Moncada “Forty Acres and a Mule” comment wasn’t enough… 3) José Ramírez, 3B, Guardians (not ranked) J-Ram ranked in the Top 3 of the first two Hitter Power Rankings of the season, and he's right back there again after falling out of the Top 10 last time. The Guardians slugger was just named American League Player of the Week after batting .348 with three homers, seven extra-base hits, 11 RBIs and three stolen bases last week. Ramírez leads the Majors with 52 RBIs. www.mlb.com Edited June 3, 20223 yr by caulfield12
June 8, 20223 yr I didn't realize that Steven Kwan thing fell off a cliff. He's hitting .250. Dude must've gone 0 fer a month.
June 8, 20223 yr 3 hours ago, flavum said: Royals on pace for 111 losses. 4-4 vs Sox What's new? Have to wipe out the Tigers and Royals from here on out...and consistently take 2/3 against Twins or Indians head to head. Can't afford to be swept so often either.
