    Maldy has been letting a lot of balls pass him for runs this season so far…

    I get why catchers do it, but I hate it with a guy on 3B and a pitcher like Abreu: Maldy's down on 1 knee to receive the pitch so he can't shift his body and get his chest over the pitch, has to just throw his glove out there and pray

    Ok, I think I get it now. Putting your foot in your mouth is your entire schtick. Classic IBTL!

    Astros hitters making Sonny Gray look like Sonny Black.

    Drives me crazy. I feel like it really cost us in the playoffs one year, maybe the 2018 ALCS?

    I was only half watching but why did Dubon not attempt the throw to first for the double play? Did he really not have a chance there? The one before the passed ball that led to the Twins run.

    They never showed a replay, which I thought was odd. Would like to have seen it...

    Pena giving into his worse tendencies the entire game. Freely swinging at sliders 3 inches off the plate. Not even close.
