LOL NO SAVE FOR NATHAN!!!!

 

Can we send Neal down and get Boone back please

Who said Cintron was on deck in the 1st place?

If he wasnt then that was a real boneheaded move taking Uribe out. HE KILLS LH..............Forget it now, Cotts just blew any chance we had on coming back now......We suck

Game over.

Cotts is a pile of s**T

Cotts is unbelievably horrible.

Jesus Christ, what the Hell happened to Neal? My God, this is almost as bad as the dropoff we saw in Koch. Does neal have a skin disease?

WTF happened to Cotts?!? Sheesh. Don Cooper my ass. How many pitchers from last year's staff have looked like crap this year?

I don't know what has happened to him...kinda the story of our pitching this year.

why does he make those bad pitches

Don Cooper has done an amazing job with our returning pitchers this year. I especially like the work he's done with Neal's offspeed pitches. HOW IN THE HELL DID NEAL COTTS ONLY ALLOW 1 HOMER LAST SEASON? Talk about a miracle year.

I see Cotts remembered to take his "I suck" pill today

Well, i guess the good news is we don't have to worry about facing Nathan in a save situation to start the 9th. They may still put him in just to kill us.

How hard is it to figure out why someone who throws a straight 92 mph high fastball on every pitch will get hit hard?

Pablo fighting the sun makes the catch.

I dont even know what to say anymore...................................................................

 

He's got to use Cotts sometimes. I can't really fault Ozzie this time.

 

I'm all for trading Neal this offseason, though. If someone will pay like he's still a top of the line set-up man.

i never forget mine

I love it now when Coop goes on the North show and he acts like a complete ass whenever he's asked about the pitchers sucking. Coop has done some great things, but this staff has been bad.

How in the world can the same pitchers be so good last year and so bad this year? It just blows my mind. One or two I understand, but only 1 or 2 putting up the same numbers? Yeesh

He's not surprising anybody anymore. He needs to locate his fastball better, and he also needs better command of his breaking ball, or he isnt going to get any better

I just thank God for all of our relievers having fluke years at the same time.

I think any game that features Javy Vazquez and Neal Cotts is a 100% guranteed loss.

It seems like I say this once a week now, but the more things change, the more I appreciate how everything fell into place last year.

Every single one of them is worse this year. Every single returning pitcher is noticeably worse this year, as I've said.

 

Just had everything fall into place last year.

Well at least our good bullpen pitchers will be rested for tomorrow.

And now the Twins have something similar going with Reyes, Rincon, Neshek, and Nathan. I particularly liked Hermanson's 89 mph fastball down the plate last year that would routinely be caught at the warning track.
