***Official Twins vs Indians Thread***

[Dude]

Following on gamecast. Did we fuck up on a dumb send again? Couldn’t just stay at third and hope for a sac fly?

Also, Cave is was faster than Adrianza if you want a PR.

Sick of getting thrown out on the paths.

It was a horrible send. The ss had the ball as Adrianza rounded third.

[weimy froob]

a couple of big at-bats by cron and gonzalez. schoop not so much. third base coach? i don't know.

[weimy froob]

come on rogers.

There was a 3rd base coach way back who fans would get mad at for sending runners home and getting out by a mile. He was at the Met and maybe Metrdome
Carl....? Or Karl....? I forgot his last name.

[Hummdrum]

Oh drat. Bases loaded and no outs. Crap.

[EmeraldAxe]

Overused?

[weimy froob]

rogers wasn't the pitcher to bring in after two innings the night before. that's been proven right now.

[sh1mmyya]

Just came here to say, I think our 3rd base coach is far sighted. Maybe he should get a new prescription.

[SKOLMN]

Well that’s frustrating

[Hummdrum]

That reminded me of the Eric Foxx homerun when Oakland beat us in 1992 and we were never the same.

[D_H]

Lolololololol

We didn't need any pitching did we

Very well may have cost them the game. Brutal.

No reason to take Romo out last night. Bad managing.

[Jack Hoff]

Here come the arm chair managers

[boxter432]

Two games this series they should have won in the bottom of the 9th and they total fuck it up.

Rocco not the brightest bulb on the tree

Rocco not the brightest bulb on the tree

not the sharpest knife in the tree and not the brightest bulb in the drawer.

[D_H]

No one with an ounce of intelligence thought this team could hold on to this division with this shit pitching staff. It was just a matter of time. Typical ownership... sign a bunch of s*** in the offseason hoping to catch lightning in a bottle.

Do we have an explanation for why Rocco did it?

Isn't it painfully obvious he's an idiot

[EmeraldAxe]

Even though Rogers messed up, hard to put the loss on him. He had heavy pitches last night (when Romo really only had one guy to get out and could have stayed in to set up the 9th, not just saying that now said it last night as well), the hitting was weak most of the game today and they deserved to lose just for that, and the 3rd base snafoo doesn't help but those kind of small mistakes have been made all season with this team.

[A Kickass Offense]

Only the Twins can inflict a blown save and still figure out a way to lose nearly 100% of the time.

Fucked up Hand both times they saw him in this series and still lost both times.

[A Kickass Offense]

Don’t worry guy!

Perez will start a winning steak on Tuesday against the Brewers!

[NonprovincialMNFan]

an 11 game lead in the division and they are now tied with Cleveland before mid-august.

Lets be real about this, did we really expect that the twins wouldn't choke this away....

welcome to trying to get a wild card spot.

[jffl_commish]

So, has the 3rd base coach been relieved of his duties yet?

i have no idea-but i said last night that i wasn't so sure about using rogers for a six out save with a three run lead because you just might need him again today. he was so panicked about getting that victory last night that he wasn't really thinking sunday.

less than 16 hours later he goes to rogers and after that hit on his first pitch i'd say that rogers didn't trust his stuff. a four pitch walk to lindor, the bunt hit and then falling behind santana before the grand slam.

i've seen enough of that to not put rogers in that situation. it seems rocco's yet to learn.

[RubeTube]

Well, one positive is the Indians plays 3 against Boston and 4 in NY this week.

That's a brutal road.

Twins can't take care of their own business so let's see if someone else can help them.

[JPM]

They are 71-47

Sheesh people. Awesome job Twins. Lots of season left.

Rocco has a lot to learn. He's done a lot of stupid s*** this year.
