I mean when he puts the ball in play it's always a hit. When he gets the ball elevated it's gone. Just way too many strikeouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Well today's lineup is something. Solano back and leading off. Jeffers and Vazquez hitting 4th and 5th, with Vazquez playing 1B. Julien dropped all the way to 9th and Gallo's reward for finally hitting is a spot on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Get pretty much dominated by the Tigers, win a series in Philly. Definitely makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux rube Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Now it’s the Tigers at home starting tomorrow. Tigers have their number so far this season. Need to change that trend starting tomorrow. Then it’s the Pirates at home before they head to Milwaukee and then at home against a very good Rangers team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Thanks to Matt Wallners grand slam the Twins finally get past the Tigers 5-3. Duran tried to make it interesting in the 9th but held on https://twitter.com/BallySportsNOR/status/1691624029910622393?s=20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 The Twins next 20 or so games will be a test. 5 games up. I wish they had traded for some late inning bullpen help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Fun game to watch last night. Wonder why they are hesitant to bring up Funderbunk or whatever his name is? Ortega down, Balazovac back up. Josh Winder fantastic last night. Three very big innings. Maybe he is a guy that could be in the bridge to Duran. 6th: Floro/Winder 7th: Pagan/Thielbar 8th: Jax/Thielbar 9th Duran Be nice to get Stewart back.

SWSiouxMN Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Here we go, Cleveland comes to town for 3 starting on Monday. The Twins can finish them off with a sweep. A Cleveland sweep gets them back into the race. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
