At some point, given injuries, the Twins HAVE to hit a wall. It’s not a matter of it, but when. Fuentes, Rauch and Capps are all bad at baseball. All of them.

Everyone in that lineup (except Young) is hurt in some regard. Their starters are all twitchey. It HAS to catch up to them soon. That’s all the positivity I can muster, at the moment.

But failing to take advantage of the August schedule and failure to beat the Twins head to head is just too much to overcome. I hope they finish strong and get to about 25 over .500 but the Twins are winning this division.

And then they will make a quick exit. Twins will one game tops in the playoffs.

That's the most aggrevating thing for me.

I feel like, given our starters and bullpen, this White Sox team could do series damage if it were to make the playoffs, whereas the Twins are going to get their usual ass-whooping.

Where they won one. They have not won multiple playoff games since 2002.

Twins starting pitching is built for the regular season

They have no shutdown ace or even a few guys who you think could shutdown a good lineup for 5 innings. Playoff at bats are a lot more intense than the other 162 games. Guys don’t give them away like “cough-cough” AJ does in the middle of the year.

Because perhaps you forget a fellow by the name of Johan. You remember him right? If not, picture him anally raping your favorite team over and over and over again. Yeah, THAT guy.

If pitching matters more in the postseason

it is not because playoff at-bats are “intense.”

The whole thing is overblown and is generally just some trite nonsense spewed by TV fools. Pitching matters a lot in baseball. Great.

If we were so much more of a playoff built team blah blah whatever that means, we’d be leading the Twins in the standings.

Tonight’s result was totally unexpected. Freddy was due for a correction, Verlander’s good. Torres and Harrell are not (averts looking in larry’s direction).

The whole you dug yourself in April/May/August just amplifies everything to the nth degree.

Guy gave me his autograph when I was twelve

had just moved to Detroit (shudders) and waited near the team bus after the game with all the players’ baseball cards. Frank Thomas gave me the cold shoulder, Hawk Harrelson seemed like the biggest prick in the world.

Got rid of the card a few years ago, stupid shit like autographs and jerseys are for kids. Still have much love for Lance though.
