The Twins are responsible for 17 of the 32 earned runs against Chris Sale this season.

Twins owning Sale.

But hey, they finally got Ozzie to agree to officially return July 17th-19th for the 2005 Reunion weekend.

 

One thing to look forward to over the remainder of the season.

Abreu is a B. He's not getting as many pitches to drive and he's being forced to be more aggressive trying to carry the team on his back. But he's almost at .300, at least coming into today. B-, at worst.

 

LaRoche C+ or B-.

Cmon. LaRoche is a D like everybody not named Abreu and maybe Beckham C or C-.

Haha! Check out Sale's reaction to the question about the team's offense....

 

Hilarious. It's a historically bad offense. So boring it is beyond belief.

He was asked the exact same thing after his last start and he called it a stupid question. It's basically the reporter openly trolling him.

He has one of the top walk rates in baseball and has a .750 OPS, and he's really not that far off his career stats for the first half of the season. He's struck out too much and hasn't been great by any means, but overall he's been an above average hitter. It's not really fair to lump him in with the rest of the bums on our team.

LaRoche is a C. He's about where he should be, but certainly no better.

 

Personally, Abreu is a C- for me. He's contributing better than anyone else but he's absolutely incredibly disappointing on the year so far.

i wish someone would ask, if able JR the question on how he thought management has done with the sox in the past,,,,, 10 yrs?

Will he hear boos during the 05 reunion ceremonies?

I can't believe it's already time for an 05 reunion. It actually makes me sad. I'd never have thought this team would turn to complete s*** with so few highlights since the glorious WS crown.

Hopefully we get things moving ahead. Every mistake at this point is just magnified and we have made plenty

Man, I thought replacing Noesi with Carroll fixed everything...

 

 

 

Wake up, Rick.

 

 

Did Carroll pitch today? NO! Let's be realistic in our insanity

Definitely not completely defending Abreu because I feel the same way. But it'd be nice for him to have the 2014 1 and 2 hitters in front of him compared to this year's version. The offense would be so much better obviously.

Just pathetic. Another 3 errors. Awful. And errors don't even say the least. We also have crappy range across the field. Just disgusting.

Chris Sale is 1-3 with a 6.46 ERA in 4 starts vs Twins this season. He's 5-1 with a 1.88 ERA in 10 starts against everyone else.

Rumor is so he can also be named interim manager.

 

Saw that Eaton run down the line. Originally I thought it was just him not running through the bag, but wow, that was so much more suck.

 

Shuck should start tomorrow.

He's still a B to me, but the lack of power over the last 600 AB's is incredibly concerning. I'd move him in a second.

He got paid

It's appropriate that suck, Shuck and the White Sox all go together this season.

 

At least last year was entertaining with Sale and Abreu...this year, it's hard to find anything positive other than Rodon getting experience and overcoming his growing pains (hopefully).

 

 

But it's still a lot more fun for fans when it's a rookie hitter like Beckham playing well like the first 4 months of 2009 after he was recalled.

That play with Eaton was so egregious it merited its own article and response from Ventura.

Alright, I hate the team now. You guys win.

"Lack" and "incredibly concerning" are overstatements. .201 ISO over the last calendar year (636 PA's) is 24th of 130 qualifiers. Not elite, but the overall offensive package has been.
