Why are we swinging at garbage? Everything has been a foot or more out of the zone.

Do we just wanna get out of Cleveland orrrrrrrrr?

What’s up with Jorge today? Keeps swinging at balls 2 feet outside.

It’s like he was over being in Cleveland

It's what the team does.
Still a successful weekend.

This was a sign that we don't quite have the Killer instinct it takes to be Champions quite yet. I know it's nice to win 2 of 3 on the road but this sucked.

Frustrating fucking loss. Could've easily had it.

All in sll, a good way to come out of the break. The defending division champions aren't going to just roll over.

They were VERY lucky to get Friday nights game Twins fans should be happy. Nothing was lost and a game was gained

Still a very "Murky" picture that should clear in the next few weeks

Should have taken this game. Can't leave the bases juiced after tying the game with 1 out and then come out and throw a meatball for a HR but 2/3 on the road coming off the break against a very hot team isn't bad at all.

It just seems the team is always content taking 2 of 3 and always let them off the sweep in game 3.

It spills onto other boards because of it. Too much hatred and pettiness is/was built through poli-chat.
That's a fair point.
For example, I have seen you claim that liberals cheer for rape in poli-chat, which is obviously untrue, but poli-chat gave you the stage to make that claim.

I believe I said they were excited about it with their exclamation points and laughy faces. (I think, only about 70% sure on this.) In the context that if getting Trump was the end result, they'd be OK with it. (I didn't vote Trump)

Either way, you're point still stands.
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.
