SWSiouxMN Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 They need to skip Berrios' turn in the rotation. Something isn't quite right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Welp, now its 9-7 because Berrios is all over the place. Not sure why Rosario is playing so deep with a strong wind blowing in and a lefty up, but Berrios didn't help matters by walking people and leaving the ball up.

SWSiouxMN Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Texas STILL doesn't know how to run the bases. The Twins need to get out of Texas, too many odd things are happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Harper may be the next in line to be off the bullpen staff. Rosario needs to catch the ball in left, but Texas really crapped the running the bases bed again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 May and Duffey each have another great outing. Hope they can keep it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Imagine a bullpen with a confident and sharp Trevor May. Rodgers, Dyson, Duffey, Romo, May, Graterol, Thorpe/Smeltz/Harper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Four of five on the road trip. Now go give Lance Lynn what he deserves tomorrow and sweep your way out of Texas. Yankee fan for one more day and then I become a Mets fan. Hopefully the Tribe stumbles a bit more in NYC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Dare I say Perez makes it through 5??? Plenty of bullpen options....Cleveland won today......makes winning this one pretty important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Polanco may not be the best defensive ss but he can rake. Huge 3 run triple to break a 3-3 tie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Big four game sweep. Five of six on the road. Now keep the foot on the pedal as Chicago and Detroit come calling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent Now feast on Chicago and Detroit for the rest of the month. Getting Cruz back likely on Monday. Need to get Berrios right for the stretch run.

If our starters can get it to the 6th with a lead the arms should be able to ride it home most nights. Gibby tomorrow...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Gibby owes the club at least 7. Buckle down, throw 110 plus pitches, and give some arms a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Twins should have challenged that play at the plate. I think they had a case of the catcher blocking the sliding lane before getting the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
