sprig Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Game will start shortly. Wonder if we'll see anything on tv. Guess not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattC Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 There were quite a few UND fans in attendance. They announced each player one-by-one and played a video of a few goals and the end of the championship game then Berry went up to the plate to throw the first pitch. The Twins should have signed him right then and there to pitch because Hughes went on to give up three runs in the first inning and that's all it took to lose the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux rube Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Stat of the day: Mauer has 2 HRs since his last double. (5/1) He only has 3 extra base hits in the month of May so far. How is that even possible? That's 22 games with 3 extra base hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxforcefans Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I'm so confused - the Twins won yesterday! The series against KC, they scored 4, 4, and 7 runs. That should be enough scoring to win at least 2 out of 3 if your pitching and defense are even remotely competent (by MLB standards). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the pitching coach can't take it anymore- I see he got arrested for suspicion of DWI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxforcefans Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Watching them makes me consider drinking (and sometimes I am ) - I can only imagine what it must be like to have a level of responsibility tied to their performance. That said; Don't drink and drive. I don't care if you are associated with the Twins pitching! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Mauer is to the Twins what Derek Jeter was to the Yankees, Ozzie Smith was to the Cardinals, and Mike Schmidt was to the Phillies. Minus the championships those collective folks won, of course.

sioux rube Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 After their ass kicking by the Red Sox today 15-4 the Twins are now 25 games under .500 at 18-43. This team will easily surpass 100 losses for the year. Twins need to go 45-56 the rest of the way to avoid the century mark. I don't see that happening.

He couldn't pull the ball if you threatened him. Are you serious, 3 extra base hits in the month of May up to 25 May (he did recently go on a hr "tear" to get that total up to 7 or so)? Wow. He has absolutely no upper cut in his swing and yet strikes out a good bit for a guy hitting in the .280s (yah, hitting has improved a bit from last season at least) with little power.
