    He mis-played it... but seeing the flags out there, the wind could have had something to do with the trajectory/angle it took. Rosario certainly thought it was gone.

    More rest needed... Correa and Springer slated to get nights off too. And Gurriel will play only on days that have the letter T in them.

    A lot of players on this team are not performing up to what this team needs this year....including Correa and Springer. Those two have to be better moving forward.

    Its garbage. If this was a home game, people would be entitled to refunds.

    Trash ass lineup with or without Altuve.

    Averaging 2 runs/game in August.

    Gomez, Gattis, Castro, Reed, White, Rasmus, Tucker . . . Just go. Leave.

    This roster is so flawed. Need consistent hitters so badly.

    Can we go ahead and call this season over yet? They have no fight whatsoever in them.

    Because this rest was pre-planned... weeks ago... and they stuck with it in their inflexible, our process is the only process way.

    Totally agree with you. No excuse at this point & Hinch just sounded stupid before the game.

    Tuve is everything to this lineup & you give him the night off (which no way he asked for) cause everyone needs a blow or some crap ( forgot his exact words) in the middle of fighting to make the playoffs & the rest of your team hitting like pee wee league players.

    And you play Gomez who can hit for **** & his D basically gifted the Twins runs...

    just ugh

    I need a drink lol Next season will be better, I have to believe.
