Series #30 Twins @ Indians July 12-14

That's better. But we have to play from behind again. Would like to see Frankie get hot.

Supposedly your best hitters should be in the 1, 2, and 4 slots. Indians have Mercado and Kipnis in 2 and 4. The strength of the top 4 is a glaring hole worth trading for. Then again I don't know if they should be buyers if they get swept here. At this point I'd probably just bat Lindor and Santana 1st and 2nd and hope someone connects and drives them home. But I guess Santana may feel comfortable in that 3 hole. 2 out walks aren't really helping however.

 

[Real Deal]

Frankie leadoff hit, Mercado follows up with a double play.

Bunting people be like -- that's why you bunt the man over!!

Bauer has really been up and down and the expectations of him having a Cy Young Ace like season died fast.

 

[Real Deal]

Ok I'm done with Trevor. He's some kind of a fucking bum. Max Kepler has 6 ABs, 5 HRs and a walk.

Twins have 3 HRs in 1.1 Innings.

 

[godfather]

Kepler really has Bauer's number. Damn, two bombs already. Bauer doesn't have it. Blowing last night's game really hurts.

 

[daddywags]

This is going to ruin our bullpen.

 

[Real Deal]

Back to the wild card scoreboard watching

 

[Joe Charboneau]

I know we dont have a lot of options, but opposing pitchers have to laugh at seeing Jason Kipnis as our cleanup hitter. If he isnt the worst cleanup hitter in baseball he has to be close. Damn.

 

[Real Deal]

Team obviously needs Lindor to drive in some runs

 

[Real Deal]

Kipnis hitting cleanup vs good pitching is a big LOL

 

[Amherstcavsfan]

Holy shit, Bradley nuked that ball.

 

[Real Deal]

That was beautiful Bobby Bradley!! 457ft

 

[EdMonix11]

That was a rocket

 

[daddywags]

Yep. That's one strong young man. That, to me, is why once you bring him up you have to give him a fair chance.

 

[Real Deal]

Oof.

On the verge of getting swept now, hopefully the AS MVP tosses a gem.
