Also, aside from the cameo “playoff” appearance a couple seasons ago, it’s been a rather atrocious string of years since 2010.

The most maddening part is that we have an owner who is so much like his father that it is a detriment to the franchise and a big reason why the team can’t progress to win a WS.

I try to be positive jackazz. I remember you’ve had health issues and I understand that negativity doesn’t help in that case.

It’s just super hard to be a more positive Twins fan like you when you know how this ownership likes to run the franchise.

Like taking the wind out of the sails.

Magill is another POS that shouldn't ever wear a Twins uniform again.

New to baseball?

Frickin Sandy Koufax had some games that weren't solid.

There are zero pitchers available in the MLB that will have a great game every time out.
I never thought I would ever read or hear anyone compare Kyle Gibson to Sandy Koufax.

Gibson also has been an at best mediocre pitcher in his career. I won’t be giving him the benefit of the doubt because he doesn’t deserve it.

Obviously you spent your life riding the "short bus"...
Stop acting like a troll just because no one agrees with you.
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

They've have a rough go. Toronto beat them senseless, and now Cleveland is picking at them.

If they win today, they will finish their 10 game road trip 6-4. If that's the June swoon, I'll take it.

Pretty cool! The lineup has been as fun as I can remember to watch. It would be amazing if we had 7 players with 20 HRs!!

Yeah, you're right, and considering how this team has played for most of the last 7 or 8 years even a 5-5 trip ain't bad! Would love to see one of those 5 dinger games by our local 9!

I think everyone is real excited about this team but overreacts with every loss now.

Man this is a fun team to watch. Our "swoon" is normally a good 10 game stretch most seasons.

So fun.

Even with the first game in that Tampa series a couple weeks ago....they got absolutely destroyed then come back the next day and say "Alright, fuck you." and kick their ass early.

Just waiting for Odorizzi to turn back into Odorizzi. We need him to have a career season to the end.
