When Robert is back, we need TA, Vaugh, and Robert to hit 1-3 every game.

Edited May 25, 20223 yr by Bob Sacamano

I have tickets to tonight's game. What's the best way to stay on top of any rain-out announcements? Twitter? The forecast just seems to keep getting worse. Looks like rain until about 10pm.

Just so we can have bases loaded with no outs and get pissed off because we didn’t score a run.

Twitter is always out in front.

Twitter probably.  @NWSChicago is usually on top of things.

I like this stat so much more than the one from yesterday showing they are the worst hitting LH lineup of all time.....and I still watched the whole damn game.

Twins finally lose.  Lets get back under 5 GB tonight.

Who am I missing who should be playing instead?

Minus Grandal, that’s my point. Injuries and roster construction sucks.

Just for funsies, I wonder what the "everyday" lineup will look like once we get them both back.  I doubt we'll actually see any lineup "everyday" as I believe Old Man River has used 42 different lineups 42 games in.

TA SS, Moncada 3B, Robert CF, Abreu 1B, Eloy DH, Vaughn RF, Grandal C, Pollock LF, Leury/Harrison 2B is probably how I would line em up. So fucking right handed heavy, but yeah.  That's what we got.

I read it as if you're saying they're "tanking" by choice.

Frankly Grandal isn't exactly a positive at the moment.  I'd much rather see Perez than McGuire, but that isn't happening until one of them gets hurt.

Those 9 there have not been available to the roster as whole, not once this year. 

And I think last year was the exact same. 

Just a brutal run.

Yupppp.  Would love to see it happen for a sustained run.  But not counting on it.

100%.   As I mentioned yesterday, Grandal should not be taking away any ABs at DH or 1B ahead of anyone other than Leury or Harrison.   He catches, he hits.  That simple.

At this point I gotta agree, especially once Eloy returns.  DH should be Eloys, period.

I kinda feel like it will be so that’s good.
