Keeping the same thread for game 2?

Nice W. Fuck the Yankees, Donaldson and the Twins. 

Go get the doubleheader. 

4-3 road trip, possibly 5-3 after tonight.  But the sky is falling..

Honestly a 4-4 road trip wouldn't even be that bad considering they had to play 2 double headers in a week. The problem is that Minnesota keeps playing shitty teams and winning. 

Boston is also red hot and coming into town. This isn't the same Boston team we swept a few weeks back.

I'm ok with Reese being the catcher EVERYTIME Liam pitches the 9th with a lead. At least then, we'll see offspeed pitches.

Good observation.  When Liam can throw a breaking pitch it’s normally lights out.

Minny gets Detroit and KC next week too. They have hit an easy part of their schedule.

WINNER!!!!!

Thanks to Cueto, AJ, Vaughn, Engel and Liam that came through in the clutch.  One run was not have been enough.

I said a few days ago if we could either come out of this weekend over .500 with this Yankees series I would take it. I stand by that sentiment

Detroit KC Detroit when both teams are scuffling mightily...then they get to test themselves against the hated Yankees.

They’re 4.5 GB and have played like shit all season. The sky isn’t falling but you shouldn’t have to play close to must win game in May when you were the clear division favorite, but here we are…

Theres nothing wrong with being a positive fan. I certainly am. But being a blind homer is quite another. This team has plenty to be concerned about, not the least of which is your boy LaRussa constantly putting this team at a legitimate competitive disadvantage.

Ive been very critical all season.  I just think the negativity today was unwarranted.  This is now 3 games in a row they’ve fought hard.  Lets see what they do tonight.

I have no say in these things, but I'll allow it.

Hahaha I watched Beckham try to hit for years.  He’s about the last dude whose hitting input I’ll take seriously. ?

Being able to see it, isn't the same as being able to do it.  I always feel like most managers and coaches weren't superstar players, and that is part of why.

Ozzie was a pretty awful hitter 

Anderson sat out first game. Donaldson sitting out second game. Nobody can convince me that TLR and Boone didn't coordinate that.

So Pollock has a good game at the plate and hits the go ahead home run and we sit him in game 2? 

that lineup for game 2 is about as good as we could have hoped for

Not the worst lineup he could have created #progress

Shocked Moncada is playing game 2
