OT - Twins Talk
The Twins are so frustrating this year. Cant score, can't win extra inning games, and the bullpen has been brutal. I was pumped for the season to start and now I cant wait for it to be over. What a bummer
they went from the bright spot to the sore spot in a damn hurry didnt they. Its crazy to talk like this, but how long before Badelli is talked about as being on the hot seat?
to bad you cant put owners on the hot seat....
honestly though, rocco has made some head scratching decisions regarding when to pull or leave pitchers, but the way this bull pen and starting rotation has been this year its got to be mind numbing trying to figure out who to throw when.
have they won a extra innings game yet? because i know they lost at least 6 of them
injured and cold to start the season. They will be there in the summer

No. They have lost every single extra inning game. Rocco has been a bad manager this year....why cant our starters throw 110 pitches? I'd rather have Jose, Happ, or Pineda going an extra inning so that we dont have to rely on inconsistent relievers. I'm really starting to question his capability as a manager as he got cute in the playoffs too.

Nope, and their runs scored after the 7th is pathetic, they are ok out of the gate, but they fade pretty damn fast and the pitching is pathetic with the exception of Berrios. Buxton has been about the lone consistent bright spot at the plate.
Just heard..... 0-11 this year when tied or behind after the 7th.
no production from their stars. Buck and Cruz are it and no one expected buck to hit. Polanco fell off the cliff, it looks like he is dancing the cha cha from the lefty side when he swings. Kepler swinging for the fences every at bat. Pen isnt worth the time
The relief pitching is brutal, and should Sano even be in the majors? Their new closer is still a White Sox fan it would appear by the number of games he's lost for us. Yeah, they suck right now.

Like the other night when he was forced to pull Berrios after he made a trip to the mound, forgetting he had already sent the pitching coach out to the mound a couple of batters earlier. Rocco has a habit of pulling pitchers after 5 innings no matter how they are doing.
They never should have let Trevor May go as a free agent and try to fill his spot with reclamation projects.
