Can we just win this game...I'm getting sick of losing.

[casimir]

Might as well stop losing.

This team sucks.     They really do.       They need some sort of change.    They are picking up right where they left off last September. 

 

Last year's red hot start was led by a couple guys (McKinstry and Baez - and Torkelson  a bit too) who were playing way above their normal.   They all kind of faded by September and that is the version we're getting now.    This team is lethargic.  They must be taking their cues from the Red Wings.   They look disengaged and disinterested.   There needs to be a change somewhere on this roster.   A shakeup.   Something that makes them say "Oh, ****....:,    Torkelson to Toledo or traded?   I don't know.   

 

Can't play the no-name Cardinals every night.  

 

To think this team - the way they are playing now - could be anywhere near .500 is laughable. 

Without Keith and the rookie where would they be?

I really wanted Harris to sign a bat but for the 3rd year in a row, Harris didn't think it was important.  He has neglected the offense and thought it better to throw $13 million at a washed up Charlie Morton/Chris Paddack caliber pitcher for nostalgia reasons.

I can’t believe they’re playing another night game. The Twins don’t do afternoon getaway games? The people of the Twin Cities certainly can’t all be taciturn Norwegian bachelor farmers who love the cold.

It’s not getaway day.  This is a seemingly rare Monday- Thursday 4 game set.    Tomorrow is a 1:40 start.

Well, I’m a Moran. I thought this was a three game series not a four game series. This is what you get when you have dispassionate robots creating schedules.

You aren’t wrong to make the assumption.  

A quick glance at the schedule and it looks like this one of only two Mon-Thu series all season long.  The other is next month against Cleveland.

This team's slogan so far this season should be

 

"Oh, wait, you mean we have to play today?   Oh, okay, sure".

I think Harris will instead use a promotion or two to shake things up.  Perez?  Clark?  Both?

[HeyAbbott]

I am ordinarily not a believer in using a promotion to shake things up. Right now, it needs to be on the table.
