    Of course the rangers would stop their losing streak when we win

    Twins should have pulled that reliever sooner

    he went single, single, K, hbp, walk, walk before they pulled him

    The double that Brantley hit tonight was off the bat at 107 mph. Bring Dr. Smooth home.

    Rangers still haven't slept this season without leading the division

    we had a chance to put them away and we floundered. Shame. Hopefully we can start playing like a team that wants it.

    Stupid MF sits Tucker so Julks plays vs Seattle.

    Astros would be leading the division, with Mariners one game behind even after the 3 terrible losses.

    Asking the Twins to win 3 in a row was always going to be tough.

    Wasn't Tucker sick and couldn't play?

    Speaking of 2020, Justin Turner testing positive for COVID and coming back out to celebrate with teammates. I can't believe he got away with that. No one gave a ****.

    The Bonda dude had an interesting tweet, interesting as in I would love to believe it. Brantley meeting up in Boston to play.

    Saw that on Reddit. I'd love for it to be true but unless we praise the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I don't know.

    Glad to see offense actually come through for once. Shame Brown couldn't go deeper into the game, but oh well.

    Dusty is that you? (on pulling pitchers entirely too late).

    Happens when you suck ass. Time will tell in the next month whether that remains true. So close right now in both WC and AL West.

    Death Lineup (anyone and Altuve, Bregman, Alvarez, Tucker, Chas, Diaz, Meyers, and Pena)
    6-0 (pytha. wins 5.3-0.7)
    9.8 runs scores/G (No longer double digits after last night's below average offensive performance)
    3.5 runs allowed/game

    I don't expect this lineup to continue to be quite this dominant, but it should not be a shock that this is a very good offensive and defensive lineup. Unless you are Dusty.
