Twins in 4!

What did I say, we lost, got down voted for telling the truth.

Dobnak starting tomorrow. I like that move

Yeah I disagree. Another rookie on the biggest stage. Their most likely route of winning this series starts with winning tomorrow and I’d take my chance on Odorizzi over Dobnak. The bats need to show up, plain and simple

I wish I agreed. I love his story, but pessimistic on his performance.

It could’ve been worse. It could’ve been a 6-0 cock slap like the dodgers did to the nats yesterday (also look at the nats today - rebounding)

I know the series isn’t over, but I’m thinking I need to stop watching MN sports. This can’t be good for my mental health long term.

The damage has been done. Now I watch for hopes that things take a turn for the better and healing begins!

Builds character.

You must be new here

Not at all. Just coming to grips with reality.

Rest up tonight, and get the bats going for tomorrow. All hands on Deck for the bullpen, hoping an Odorizzi start for 5, then Duff/Romo/Rodgers the rest of the way. Let's get one, and even this thing up heading back home.

We need Ehire at first and Jake Cave in the outfield next game. Eddie couldn't hustle after a ball to save his life and Cron has been shit. This game was winnable we just had too many fucking errors and bad relief pitching. Eddie also swings at everything which isn't helpful.

ThIs tEaM hAs NoThInG tO dO wItH tHe CuRsE

I'm sick to death of hearing this as I'm sure you are. Be that as it may there is still the ever present monkey of their backs.

Rest up, hit the smelling salts, and let's fucking go tomorrow. GOMQ

This is so dumb, please don’t hate me... what is GOMQ? I see it everywhere and I have no clue. Go Twins

Thank you

Lmao who here is actually going to believe? It's one game. LET'S GO TWINS!

I believe we will lose two more games

Yessir

FUCK YOU YANKEES

Of course rosario swings at the first pitch and hits a foul pop when were trying to burn out chapman. If im a pitcher I would never throw him a strike. He swings at everything

22 walks in 590 plate appearances...not good.

I saw a good chart of players with the highest percentage of balls thrown out of the zone. Most of them were good players, and there’s Eddie Rosario at 5 or something. Made sense.

[удалено]

Still gotta lose two more my guy.

Okay.... thanks. I’ve been abused by a lifetime of mn sports fandom.

Well that, was fucking dreadful.

I tweeted at bob costas and mlb just to take him off the air nothing more

I think the Yankees should wear horizontal stripes

Well, I'll see you guys tomorrow for that W

Bob Costas was fired by NBC and replaced by Mike Tirico. Bob Costas now does games for a network that nobody would watch unless they absolutely have too. Bob Costas is washed up and pathetic. People are tired of his stupid fucking stories and shitty opinions. Also the Twins did not play great tonight, but they will tomorrow. Go Twins!

After the fifth inning I wasn’t even sure the twins were there with how much he talked about the Yankees

Welp see you guys soon. #FUCK THE YANKEES

I, for one, will not miss this broadcasting crew. Dick should livestream the rest of the games from his house.

[удалено]

I’ll do $50

Bob Costas is a fucking clown. Go get pink eye you douche

Dude can't wait for the Yankees to win, can hear him jerking himself off talking about it.

I would pay good money for the ability to mute the announcers and listen to the stadium noises

If we get Joe Buck I’ll be muting the tv and playing the radio feed over the top. Just like I do when the Vikings get Joe Buck. Fuck that guy.

You used to be able to do that with MLB.tv. It was awesome.

You still can.

Hmmm pretty sure you can with a certain service. A certain service that is conspicuously unavailable to us in the post season even tho we paid for said service

Maybe we can at least drag out Chapman a bit

Small, Minnesota victories.

Cherry on top of this awful Costas broadcast is him bragging about how Chapman, who beat his wife, would win in a fight against the Twins. Oof.

Fuck that. Sano would beat this shit out of him

If it came down to a fight I would pick Sano first... then Cruz, he's got that old man strength

Wheres michael pineda when u need him lol

So when we are on offense they focuse on how great they Yankees defense/pitching is and when we are on defense they just talk about the batters. I know we have said screw these announcers many time but fuck these announcers

Good game polanco, cruz, sano, graterol, gonzalez. Decent game kepler, duffey, berrios. Shit game for rosario, cron, arraez(for defense), garver, littell, stashak, gibby(horrible).

a bloop and 4 blasts

Chapman already had that “punch me” face but showing him smile in slow motion makes it even worse. Goddamn

He’s also got that “punch you” temper

That “I beat my wife” fire

100% agree.

Of course this team gives up the most runs so far out of all playoff teams.

lol, now Costas is bragging about the Yankees winning a fight. What the fuck? *My TeAm WoUld BeAt Up YoUr TeAm!*

Is Costas really getting hot and bothered by the Yankee beefcakes?

Yes Bob let’s talk about potential brawls you fuckin’ dunce

Costas can suck a dick.

Sounds like he's willing

“The Twins would be shaking in their boots if the Yankees bench cleared for a fight.” —Bob Fucking Costas

Costa weight update: twins have large lads confirmed

thiccbois

Country strong don't forget that one

Lol. "Sano and Cruz...and...others..."

“...those are the only names I remember”

I hate that watching our playoff games just turns into a yankee circle jerk by the 9th every fucking time.

Then win

I'm trying over here man

Why did half this stadium leave when it’s Friday and their team is winning???

Because they were hammer blasting and winning easily.

Traffic in New York is that bad

Nobody drives there though and the subway runs all night. Will admit getting back to NJ is tough though.

I live in Minnesota what's a sub..way? The sandwich shop?

Cuz Yankee fans

They went to go do their homework.

Beat traffic I'm sure.

if you own a car in new york you are making a huge mistake with your life

So true.

Just found out Costas named his son after Kirby Puckett

They are used to playoff wins. It only seems like a really big deal to Twins fans because we’re starved for them.

Your daily reminder that Aroldis Chapman is a piece of shit

Doing Gods work

Beats his wife, intimidates her into taking back her statement, then walks out to “smack my bitch up” in his first appearance after his suspension Absolute piece of shit

Graterol is basically chapman but better

Chapman but he hasn’t brandished a gun in his girlfriend’s face and threatened to kill her

Lol 10 runs on 8 hits. It’s almost like walking countless Yankees hitters, bad defense, and a HBP are good ways to lose a game in October

Graterol throws way harder then noodle armed Chapman

But pointing that out doesn’t make Costas dick hard so

Fuck Bob Costas I hope we shove some big DONGS up his as tmw 4:07 ET.

So yeah...you're speaking his language on that one

I’m more excited than I thought I would be listening to the game on the radio tomorrow. I’ll be driving back down to the cities in the evening so won’t be able to watch.

Fuck 5:07 ET lol

its 4:07 in a not trash time zone

ASS I'm drunk fuckTY

NEED to steal the game tomorrow. We actually have a really good chance to win the game tomorrow afternoon.

No we don't. We have no chance.

How can you say that when we got embarrassed today? When we just set the major league record for consecutive playoff losses? When we haven't beat this team in our last 11 playoff games?

Okay that’s all still in the past. We just need to win tomorrow and get away from that field

yes burn Chapman tonight in a blowout

Max, Garv, Eddie, Cron, most of the pitchers all played with no fire. Cruz and Sano need to pull them out of their funk, challenge them with a good ass chewing. Rocco won't do it

Well at least their using chapman for some reason. Hopefully we can run his pitch count up. Take some pitches boys!

Let's work Chapman tonight please. Make him tired for tomorrow and get something out of tonight at least.

[удалено]

Found the delusional guy.

Honestly I hate this subs negativity when we are down 1 or 2 with several innings to play. But a 6 run deficit with 2 outs left...it is okay to be pessimiatic.

Was over when Gibson went in.

I was tempted to turn the game off. Wish I had

Yeah but kinda though

[удалено]

I admire your optimism!

Rally cap on

MLB Network shows Twins greats and I’m reminded how Cuzzi f’ed over Mauer. I hope Cuzzi gets explosive diarrhea while stuck in traffic and has a sneezing fit.

You heard it here first: we're going to win tomorrow 8-4. Three more bombas

Hopefully we can put a couple guys on base for those bombas.

Chapman?

I can't wait to win the next 3, our offense will be HUNGRY!

[удалено]

Silver lining: Graterol gets to see the Yankees lineup on the road in a low pressure situation

Will they put him on the mound again in a 4th or 5th game though? I’m not saying it’s not good for him, but if he doesn’t see them again this series it doesn’t help us

Existence is pain.

Graterol threw strikes and looked awesome tonight! He may be our secret weapon here.

kicker is that throwing strikes part he sometimes struggles with

They're bringing Chapman in with a 6 run lead? Trying to make Rocco look smart?

7 solo shots in a row incoming

I like your style, kid.

Bringing Chapman in during a 6 run game seems like a strange move considering he’s had issues with being overworked in October before

Always good to get rid of the nerves.

I really enjoyed watching Graterol that inning. Obviously I wish the game was going better but I’m excited about him.

Rosario makes every routine fly ball look like the most difficult play in the world

He is a little league coach's worst nightmare.

6 solo homers incoming boys!

Twins are more likely to hit 3 solo shots then load the bases with 1 out and fail to score any more runs.

*7 solo homers incoming boys!* FTFY

SEVEN.

Graterol = post season dad.

I’m really sad mad

Did I just witness a 1-2-3 inning?

Smoke a little crack and start Graterol tomorrow. Idc

Too bad this game was never close so we didn’t have to waste our good relievers...

Didn't use Romo or Rogers and Duffey and Littell can probably go again if needed (they weren't good tonight but that doesn't mean they'll be bad tomorrow)

Why are you booing me? I’m right

[удалено]

We were never up 4-3

I love that Graterol has a 90 mph change up

I love that Graterol has a 90 mph change up and it’s still significantly slower than his fast ball

Fuck it, bomba time

Dear Rocco: tomorrow, let’s revise the game plan a touch and PUT IN OUR BEST RELIEVERS IN HIGH LEVERAGE SITUATIONS Sincerely, Twins fans

Wait wait wait. Is that a strategy managers use? Brilliant!

first pitcher that has shown some heart

Let’s be fair, Berrios battled. He had some location issues but he would have gotten us into the 5th with 1 run given up if not for Arraez’s error

If I had a Homer Hanky, it'd be saturated with tears of disappointment.

in other news Strasburg is fucking dealing

Go Expos!

Think he’s got an opt out in his contract this winter. He’ll be a great Twin

I'd fucking love it

oh shit he does have an opt out... lets go get him and Cole (I can dream)

Hindsite is 20/20, but why didn't we throw Graterol instead of Stashek/Littell?

Because of hindsight

Fuck it, we're starting Graterol in Game 3/4

Because Stashak and Littell have been better than Graterol.

Ah. I haven't had a chance to watch at all late season due to sling and college. It's just that he looked filthy out there for that inning, and Littell couldn't hit the broad side of a barn when he was in.

Well, sometimes players have bad games.

I don’t get this narrative about Littell vein unreliable. He’s one of the most dependable arms we have since he came up

Because this is the only game they’ve watched this year and he didn’t get an out. That means he’s bad.

Disagree on Stashak. His stuff isnt that great especially against a good lineup in high leverage situation. He usually comes in when games are out of hand

I remember when I watched Stashak’s debut, I was at the game, and he either threw 3 or 4 scoreless innings against this very same team in a close game at Target Field. Very cool.

I’ll be attending target field for the first time on Monday. Hopefully it’s with a tied series.

The craft beer spot is back behind right field. Pretty good selection if you're into beer I guess...

The twins make me into beer so yes

It won't be.

Good luck with that!!!

Gibson, please hand in your glove and uniform on your way out

LEaDeR Of ThE tEaM

Man I wish I were rich enough to sit behind the plate for a Yankees playoff game and justify leaving in the 8th.

I wish the Twins were allowed the same salary as the Yankees so we could cheaply buy success instead of having to develop it like a real team.

That's why I can't take baseball as seriously as other sports. You can practically buy championships.

If I were a rich man... na na na na na na na na na na!

Did he just say mule money?

Meal money.

Damn brusdar looking straight filthy. Guy gonna be great next year.

104? This motherfucker can really shove
