He looked good until the 5th in his second ever ML start. He threw a few bad pitches with a catcher behind the dish that even you said is calling bad pitches.

 

What is Buehrle's excuse for last night?

 

They both sucked...this series is just so reminiscint of every important game we've played at Minnesota in the last 5 years or so.

I was gone and now back only to see the twinkies put up a five spot and take the lead. Not a good sign for the outcome of this game

my beacon of hope is how the Twins fared the last time they came to the Cell.

Oh great, a moral victory of an out for Konerko.

I predict use getting 0 more hits this game.

On the nose.

I thought things were bad when I walked into my house to the voice of Michael Bolton and then I see this.

 

I loved that guy.

Rub some dirt on it ya puss......

I predict use getting 0 more hits this game.

 

Shut up

They hit our pitcher, they score, we hit theirs, get thrown out. Go figure.

He doesnt have enough secondary stuff. Second and thirs time through the order, his fastball starts to look BP-like. He has a future in the pen, nothing more IMO.

 

Sounds a lot like Poreda

I hate when Hawk starts going down that path. Mauer's was an absolute rocket that hit Richard in the ankle. Ramirez's was solidly hit, but got Perkins higher up on the body. Richard's lucky he didn't break his ankle.

We're down one run and it feels like we're down 10. If we feel this way, I can only imagine the players feel similarly. All we need is a runner and someone to run into a ball, and even that seems unlikely. That is a problem.

Fields needs to hit a homerun.

Is Harrelson in love with the Twins or is it me

Sounds a lot like Poreda

 

Poreda is a stud. You kidding me? Guy is awesome. Until we trade him that is, then he's another De La Santos who everyone will say, "I always thought he was a bullpen guy anyway".

Trust in the Golden God that is BA.

Everything about Poreda screams "Thornton clone"

Ozzie also!

Can we take out Toby Hall, no faith in him.

 

sorry Toby

UM has anyone noticed that last 5 games or so CQ has turned into the least patient hitter in baseball. Id say he has swung at the first pitch, mostly for an out 90% of the time in the last 5 games. WTF is he doin all of a sudden.

c'mon tubby

I know Josh struggled in the minors this year but is it me or does it seem like he just has more of a chance up there than Crede did?

Well the only .500 teams they play on the road are the Angels, A's (slumping), Blue Jays (I know they're around .500), and Rays (who I predict will fall off by the end of the year.) They play the Mariners twice, Royals, Orioles, and Indians on the road as well.
