Last three games have been great baseball. Need to capitalize a bit more on their chances though.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Having the tie breaker vs Houston is huge! Last year seemed like they had no tie breakers against anyone lol

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Nice win. Pitching (outside of Manoah, of course) has been money lately

That Astros lineup is kinda blah without Yordan.

 

[Discoverer]

Oh Springer. Why are you still leading off? He’s been brutal this year

What a nightmare. 2nd and 3rd none out. Zero runs with all good bats up. This team is very frustrating

124 wRC+ since May 1. He was brutal in April and has been very good since.

 

[EpochLink]

Back on track, the only blemish was the Manoah outing.
Either than that, pitching has been great the past few games.

 

[Cleetus]

taking 3 of 4 from the Astros, I will take that, good job Jays!

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

124 wRC+ since May 1. He was brutal in April and has been very good since.

And he's due for even more positive regression. Maybe he can steal some of Belt's luck (.461 BABIP lmao)

He's right there with Belt, Varsho, and Kirk as part of the Trash Bros.

Was not expecting a win out of that series after how ugly it started.

Let's go. Push Minnesota even more under 500 and do the Guardians a solid

 

[TMLeafer]

Nice series, hope they go on a heater

 

[horner]

Vlady he has turned out to be a great first baseman but his HR and clutch hitting have left him .
BO is that player Mr. Realiable.

 

[Eyedea]

Vladdy's line drive in the 7th inning that went straight to Tucker is a prime example of the lack of luck he's had so far this year. 111mph off the bat, 14 LA, .760 xBA, caught.

 

[phillipmike]

Every AL team except for Oakland would be first in the Central. All teams in the AL Central are under .500.

Thought this was a typo. What a joke!

I know they're dealing with some injuries, but that Twins lineup is awful.

 

[The Nemesis]

bringing over the warning from the discussion thread:

There will be no off topic/social/political discussion surrounding the Bass situation and fallout. If you want to talk about him in a baseball context that's fine but we won't be going down the rabbit hole of discussing the socio-political context of it. Anyone that chooses to do so after this post, regardless of which side of the argument you fall on, will have their posts deleted and may be subject to warnings or threadbans depending on the severity and impugnity of the post.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Buxton injured again? I'm absolutely shocked

 

[EpochLink]

Carlos Correa really signed that long term deal with the Twins.

 

[canucksfan]

Varsho made that catch look a lot easier than it was. Great jump and route.

 

[The Nemesis]

Lol Gray. Have a nice trip?

 

[shaner8989]

Time to sit Vladdy. He’s garbage. If he’s gonna be a lazy pos he’s not even gonna hustle down the line…. Sit the f*** on the bench.

[The Nemesis]

Not a fan of that "M" logo on the Twins' batting helmets. It looks too much like the old multi-color M from the Marlins unis the last few years before their most recent redesign.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Molitor looked absolutely thrilled to be in the booth lmao.
