    Love McCullers stuff but if his wildness continues, he shouldn't be considered for possible playoff rotation. Other pitchers on the staff are pitching much better at this point.

    Incredibly lucky to not give up more. Could have been Arlington all over again.

    In other news, the Angels have completely unraveled.

    How the heck did that Twins HR ever get out? Balls do not seem to carry all that well.

    Carter would be better off just sticking his bat out there hoping for a hit rather than actually swinging

    Carter strikes out looking on the only pitch in the strikezone. :eek:

    Overall I like Hinch

    And Luhnow is obviously trending towards greatness

    But in the case of continuing to play Carter, they both show a bit of ignorance

    The guys hurts this team, badly

    At some point you stop looking at/blaming Carter and look towards the manager and/or GM. They're the ones keeping him on the roster/in the lineup.

    Pitiful. There is literally zero point to getting that big of a lead off of 2nd with two outs.

    AND......another bone headed base running mistake

    There has to be advanced stats that say being ultra aggressive is beneficial in the long run

    Not really a big fan of Gomez up to this point but hope he's okay after that play. And Karter is continuing to make the organization look stupid in an otherwise turnaround year.
