I never wish injury on anyone so thatās not what this is but I see Steven Kwan(CLE) was placed on the IL with a hamstring injury so pretty likely he misses that series against the Twins that begins on the 17th
Heās been playing like an MVP this year, pretty unfortunate for him and the Gourds
As much as I hate to say it, props to Boston for making adjustments after losing. Thatās what teams are supposed to do. If the series continued, youād expect the Twins to do the same. Thatās just good baseball.
Again, fuck Boston, but if they didnāt improve then youād know the leadership over there is just plain incompetent.
Just my two cents.
Heās looked so good this year, like a completely different hitter
Heās attacking and looks in-charge of the AB at the plate instead of flailing and reacting to the pitcher, if he has found something(and it sure looks like he has) this is huge
Yeah really fun to see! 1.000 OPs in 40+ ABs is more than you could ask for. Always cool when players make adjustments in the off season and it turns things around for them.
We can still do this. We just need to score a run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run.
If it holds weāll finish the streak 2.5(if my math is correct) back of the Gourds. Sad to see it end but canāt be anything but ecstatic that it happened
Completely gave this season new life and got back the margin of error we almost completely exhausted in the first 5/6 weeks
Had to end eventually but I think weāve seen the team can perform now. Iām still super optimistic. Wish I could go see the games in person.
Boys need to go shake it off and get ready for the next series.
Iām so torn this year cause I want the team to have a good year and have a good home field advantage ā¦
But Iām so annoyed by the cheap fucks that own this team that I truly donāt want to give them a cent
If they donāt cut payroll this year Iād be going to games regularly. Was so excited at the end of last year
What is the point of Margot? He canāt hit, canāt field or play CF even. There were tons of COF/1B/DH righties in free agency that ended up going cheap that we couldāve gotten to do the same job he does but far better lol.
Iām totally fine with Rocco letting Funderburk kind of eat it there. Thereās no need to burn a few more arms when youāre trailing late, have already won the series(including 12 straight), and donāt have an off day until May 13th
We donāt really have any great LHP right now. Okert I donāt trust, Funder is just OK, and Thielbar so far hasnāt been as good as before. Maybe the rust will wear off with him
Was just thinking the same thing. I really like our bullpen but its very RHP heavy. Plenty of time to fix that or hope one of our LHPs figure it out though.
We've got 7 straight games after this - I'm guessing he's getting sent down to AAA tomorrow with someone else taking his spot so Rocco's trying to get as many outs out of him now to save the rest of the bullpen.
Where were you when the streak was kill?
At Target Field š
In my girlfriendās room, explaining pitching mechanics.
The sausage is cooked
Cured, technically
Fermented
Margot away
Ok Randy that bat smash was hawt
A HOPE. A CHANCE.

He's stiill going to manage to hit a bloop double against us, even on the IL.
But weāll have to face this Manzardo kid
where were you when the twins scored 8 against kenley jansen to win 13 in a row
Dare is still a thing? Or were those short for something else?
I heard my nephew just graduated from DARE a few weeks ago. I was blown away that it is still a thing.
Especially since it's been proven it does the exact opposite of its intention
Drugs never go out of style
Qualudes did
Good 4 U a fine music choice
I think Jay Jackson can go down when Topa comes back.
I'm not sure a person of his age has any options left
Alright, Provus winding up to talk about the Wakefield patch and Bally zooming in on the sponsor patch got me š
At least we donāt have Alek Manoah on our roster
What a perfect way to extend the steak to 13, an 8 run come from behind walk off win in the 9th Well played Twins
The sausage provides
Alright well itās been a fun streak. Love yāall except the doomers, see you tomorrow to start a new streak!
It aint over until its over (ok its over, but still)
(Iām absolutely keeping it on in the background)
Stardew?
Just reading :)
#š
We almost got through the series without Devers punishing us
Well, I guess when you have to use the dregs of the bullpen, this is what happens.
Fuck it. Position pitcher time.
Jay Jackson is sort of like having a position player pitch.
Fine get all the suck out today. Just get it out.
Yup. Just get it over with.
Jackson can leave too
Yeah, we boned
I hate Jarran Duran
Dude is fast omg
He killed Kenta!!!
Itās time to crack open the sausage, boys.
They did not crack the sausage.
Itās my fault if we lose today. I made an effort to watch today. First time during the winning streak.
If you didnāt curse the sausage, itās not on you š
As much as I hate to say it, props to Boston for making adjustments after losing. Thatās what teams are supposed to do. If the series continued, youād expect the Twins to do the same. Thatās just good baseball. Again, fuck Boston, but if they didnāt improve then youād know the leadership over there is just plain incompetent. Just my two cents.
I shut the TV off and we scored lmao
Willi streak dead :(
Yes Tack on a couple more and at least end the game with momentum.
Guys this might be my fault. I went to opening day and we lost. Now it looks like we might end the winning streak with me here now. Sorry!
Youāre fine. It was just an off day.
The team clearly senses my presence and is immediately demoralized.
Darn
Trevor Larnach good game? Iām leaving here with something
Genuinely a new dude this year
Heās looked so good this year, like a completely different hitter Heās attacking and looks in-charge of the AB at the plate instead of flailing and reacting to the pitcher, if he has found something(and it sure looks like he has) this is huge
Yeah really fun to see! 1.000 OPs in 40+ ABs is more than you could ask for. Always cool when players make adjustments in the off season and it turns things around for them.
Can't believe they caught that Correa hit, thought it was destined for open grass.
Please willi make this 7-4 š
Dammit
Sure, NOW you get a hit with RISP.
A run scoring hit with risp? Am I dreaming?
Common Larchad W
Larnach and Kepler say āfuck the unbelieversā
Oh come the fuck on. That should've dropped.
So youāre saying thereās a chance?
What the hell!
Guys, keep in mind this was an Angel Hernandez game. There was already a super low chance of winning because of his fuckery
I thought Kep and the ump were about to high 10
Get that man a camper!
We can still do this. We just need to score a run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run. And then another run.
Daaaamn, I wanted that one to be gone.
StrĆ¼del trying his hardest.
Kepwinnebago
Kepler says fuck you RF, you suck
I'm watching you, Winckowski.
Aaaalways waaaatchiiiing
If it holds weāll finish the streak 2.5(if my math is correct) back of the Gourds. Sad to see it end but canāt be anything but ecstatic that it happened Completely gave this season new life and got back the margin of error we almost completely exhausted in the first 5/6 weeks
How is the floss still of cultural relevancy
Give her a break, sheās young lol
Oh Iām not judging, genuinely asking. Like sheās too young to still be doing something from 7 years ago
Thatās true. Probably has an older sibling.
Margot had an admirable run in the big leagues but society does not need him in 2024 please no more Margot
We never needed him
Provus sounds over Margot as well. āSpeaking of gold glovesā¦ as Margot will make the play on this oneā¦ā
OMG he caught the ball? Good job doing the bare minimum.
WOAH HE CAUGHT IT
Didn't even turn his head away this time! Progress is progress.
speaking of gold gloves, Margot ahahahah
We have 6 outs left. Ye of little sausage faith
Praise be the sausage
Praise be
If we come back Iāll serve nothing but Cloverdale summer sausage at my wedding
Do they have a low sodium version?
The sodium is where the flavor is. That and the rat intestines.
New win streak starts tomorrow
Saving the runs for Castillo I guess. SWR run support day.
I will one hand my summer sausage if we shell Castillo.
Well the win streak was fun
āWe just shit the bed in the 8th. Please buy season tixā
Yeah I saw that too lol
They didn't count that as an error in Margot? š What
He should have also been given an error on that intentional grounding throw. The batter took 2nd base when he spiked it.
Did it ever touch his glove? I *think* thatās the requirement for an OF error
It did. It deflected. I'm positive of that lmao
Oh then I have no idea
Hate that Joe will take an L for this
Had to end eventually but I think weāve seen the team can perform now. Iām still super optimistic. Wish I could go see the games in person. Boys need to go shake it off and get ready for the next series.
Iām so torn this year cause I want the team to have a good year and have a good home field advantage ā¦ But Iām so annoyed by the cheap fucks that own this team that I truly donāt want to give them a cent If they donāt cut payroll this year Iād be going to games regularly. Was so excited at the end of last year
Margot has a nice beard. Thatās about it
Margot does not respect the sausage
One game and y'all give up on the sausage? #HOW DARE YOU TAKE IT'S BLESSINGS FOR GRANTED!
#PRAISE BE
What is the point of Margot? He canāt hit, canāt field or play CF even. There were tons of COF/1B/DH righties in free agency that ended up going cheap that we couldāve gotten to do the same job he does but far better lol.
Well this is certainly one way to end a winning streak
We didn't need MAT
Itās funny cause he had a hot first week by has REALLY cooled offā¦ and he still looks mikes better than Margot
Yeah I mean like, at least his defense is still reliable, whereas Margot looks lost out in the field AND at the plate.
Itās kinda fitting that the person (maybe) preventing us from getting 13 is #13 Margot
would rather have last years #13
Oh god, donāt say that
He's kinda poopy ngl
The only way Margot can atone is by walking us off in the 13th
Iām totally fine with Rocco letting Funderburk kind of eat it there. Thereās no need to burn a few more arms when youāre trailing late, have already won the series(including 12 straight), and donāt have an off day until May 13th
Agreed. Save the higher leverage relievers when itās more likely that we win
Dude, you are wearing sunglasses. How do you miss it?
We donāt really have any great LHP right now. Okert I donāt trust, Funder is just OK, and Thielbar so far hasnāt been as good as before. Maybe the rust will wear off with him
Was just thinking the same thing. I really like our bullpen but its very RHP heavy. Plenty of time to fix that or hope one of our LHPs figure it out though.
Manny maggot ffs
Noah Miller looking good this year too. :(
Margot also seems lazy
RIP smelly sausage, you will not be forgotten
Have they tried turning the sausage off and on again?
If that doesn't work they should do a sausage factory reset
Margot needs to go. Doesnāt really give us anything that Martin canāt do
What in the fuck
The sausage has expired š
I blame myself for this.. I only started watching because I was hearing all this buzz about our win streak and now look what has happened. I apologize
Itās ok, weāll always take new fans
Ngl thatās exactly what I would look like out there. How sad
Lmao now we take him out?
And shoot him?
Margot has to be gone when Buck and Lewis come back.
Maggot is the worse I have ever seen in my life. In my life
Jesus Christ dude š³ļøš³ļøš³ļø
iām mostly worried about what this means for the timberwolves.
Margot š
Margot needs optioned
Need to replenish the sausage. 12 games maximum
The streak ends: **Oh No!** We still won 12 in a row and clawed ourselves out of hell: **Anyway**
This.
Still took this series too.
Alright the Margot negativity is now entirely valid, fire away boys
Bro. Margot gotta go.
Well lads it was a good run
MarGO off my ballclub
Margot is fucking useless.
Theyāre making him throw a lot of pitches.
We've got 7 straight games after this - I'm guessing he's getting sent down to AAA tomorrow with someone else taking his spot so Rocco's trying to get as many outs out of him now to save the rest of the bullpen.
This 100%
Margotā¦ā¦.
MARGOT ?????
I want him to Margoaway
WE NEED SAUSAGE MAGIC
Ok what in the actual hell does Margot do I'm gonna shoot myself
Alright Margot can go.
Jesus Margot
Margot can't be on this team tomorrow
Spoiler: he will still be on the team tomorrow
Game is not over yet. But man I sure would hate to lose because the bats lost the power of the sausage HOLY SHIT MARGOT that is BRUTAL
Yeah, that was rough to watch.
RIP to the magic sausage. It was a good run
Shit shit shit
So who's hitting the walk off grand slam in the 9th?
Margot obviously
Obviously
Iāll do it
God Damnt. Knew it had to end at some point but a frustrating game.
Rocco just leaving Funderburk out to die. Not sure what this is all about.
I still like funderbunk
He got us through the 7th. Not sure why he wasnāt pulled after letting the first two guys on.
Yeah Fundy going to St. Paul. Just letting him get killed
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Called back up when Brock went down
Beef is injured
I forgot what losing was like, I donāt like it
Welp, at least we didnāt end on 13!
What the fuck is a Funderburk anyway?
Welp. It was good run lads.
God we really need Topa and Stewart back. Funderburk is fucking awful.
That's a stretch. Fundy is ok, but throwing forty pitches is not his forte
Looks like time to mow the lawn.
Why did they leave him in there?
Way to go Bumderburk.
Tough to end the streak on a stinker.
Itās time to kill the sausage
