Wonder how the Twins will fair with 2 on and no one out. Better than the Sox?

Contreras meltdown at hand?

 

Your kidding right? See, these are the posts that piss me off from you. He hasn't given up a run in like 11 or 12 or 13 innings. He hasn't had a meltdown in forever.

Contreras pitching at a snails pace now.

No doubt.

Get a grounder from Lecroy here, and you have a great shot at the double play.

BUT WHERE WILL GRIFFEY PLAY!!!!

He WAS one of the best but he just can't compete with Aaron and Scotty!!

 

I also like how they never address him playing DH. Just seems like they avoid that completely.

it would seem to me now is the time for a double play...

 

oh. just a force out

Yeah, he hasn't had a meltdown in what, 2 starts? When I talk about Contreras having a meltdown, I refer to him losing his mechanics when he's forced to pitch out of the stretch. He gives up a lot of big innings when he loses his release point out of the stretch.

Not scoring last inning was a letdown, and JC has lost his concentration

Might as well just pitch from the wind-up here.

BUT WHERE WILL GRIFFEY PLAY!!!!

 

Yeah...he sux. (As Griffey connects for #27 of the year)

bases loaded

 

the Twins are terrible with the bases loaded

 

you Sox fans should not worry

Why do we pitch to Lecroy like he is Barry Bonds sometimes?

I love how we play in front of sellout home crowds. Can't wait for the playoffs.

this is when i just laugh at Contreras. Is there any doubt that his ability to pitch lies between his ears? No wonder Torre got so frustrated.

He was awesome against Toronto, awesome against NYY, and has been good against Minny so far. He gave up some runs to a good hitting team in Baltimore and has one of our 2 wins against Boston. He's been great this year. A couple "meltdowns".

If it was any other manager Rowand would be hitting 1 or 2. But because its Ozzie he hits way down in the lineup while guys who hit below 240 are hitting 1 and 2.

 

This lineup may score a run. On a solo homer. But Lohse will look like Cy Young tonight.

 

Anderson may be a defensive replacment but he wont play. Timo will be our leadoff guy until Pods gets back.

C'Mon, need a K here.

Where was that slider?

No...Ozzie will give Andersen 1 start. He'll go 0-4 and not play again....kinda like Gload.

Go figure.

Game.Over.

I've been very happy with Contreras this year. However, he's given up 6 or more runs in 4 of his last 11 games. Thus, he's very capable of having disasterous innings. And just like that, there's 2 runs. He sucks out of the stretch, it's that simple.
