That’s pretty much been the standard the last month or so, they’ll just sandwich a double digit outburst in between them a couple times a week so it doesn’t seem like it.
I have a bad feeling the 2nd half Twins are going to have to be a team that has to score 7+ to win a game.

Perez came back to earth. Odorizzi has struggled in 3 of his last 4. Gibson is wildly inconsistent. Pineda....nobody fucking knows what you're getting each start with him. Berrios is the only arm I trust right now.

But we'll pick up some 4th starter and a serviceable bullpen arm at the deadline and get smoked at Yankee Stadium in October.

He's an average 5th starter at best. It's unreasonable to expect him to go into Cleveland and be effective

You miss the post in Wolves chat last night where Mlhouse posted a pic of Westbrook, Harden and I can't remember the other guy and said "Combined 458 million between the 3. Racism doesnt exsist"

I think he's a good #4....maybe a low-end #3 on an iffy rotation (like ours).

Not someone I want to trot up in the playoffs, though.

Then it'd just spill onto the main boards.

No. It will just spill into other places. It's best to keep that stuff there.
