    Springer has been stuggling since early June... batting~.210/.317/.385

    He's due to get hot again, but that's 1/3 of a season.

    Most fielders would've dove for nothing anyway, but yes, Tucker would've airballed his dive.. triple.

    I know Altuve had no desire to take the day off today...does that really make any sense to remove the best hitter in baseball from a lineup that struggles to put 2 runs up on the board?

    And Gattis is a disaster.

    It makes no sense at all that he couldn't even DH. Nothing makes sense with him sitting "now" of all times. That's just my opinion.

    Can't score on the f***ing Twins. That's kind of depressing.

    Altuve has played the field every game this season except one. He probably needed a day off.

    Hinch probably figured we'd muster a few runs off 6+ ERA Duffey. Maybe next inning.

    Honestly, go **** yourself Gomez. TERRIBLE decision to keep him in CF over Marisnick.
