Shark getting blown up by one of the worst offenses in baseball in a pitchers park. Wtf.

[Guest]

Think it might be time to give Shark an extra day's rest or skip him entirely.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

And just like that, the best thing about this season so far has a worse than average ERA.

The Twins only had one of the worst offenses in baseball when it was highlighted by Josh Willingham. Now that M&M are back, it's far better. That doesn't change the fact that it sucked to see Shark going all Volstad in that inning though.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I can't believe this team is going to go from 15-20 to 19-40. I guess I was just being a fan, but I really thought there was a few specks of talent here and there to keep this from happening.

[davell]

At least I got @Kapman to block me today.

[treebird]

yeah, I was just coming to say that we need to just get volstad or whoever up here for his next start and give jeff a turn off.

[treebird]

At least I got @Kapman to block me today.

 

details plz

[davell]

He said something else negative about Castro, so I told him I hope he realizes he only criticizes Latin American players. He called me an idiot, I responded by saying a hateful, immediate response kind of proves he's a racist and the blockage happened.

[Schwarber Fan]

How are Revere, Span, and Casilla not all the same person?

This effing team

 

 

What's the franchise record for losses in a season? Would have to guess somewhere between 110-120.

I don't know, but my prediction of 100 losses before the season is looking more and more like a reality.

 

EDIT: On pace for a 52-win season. Need to go 44-59 (.427) the rest of the way to avoid 100 losses.

Soriano stays hot.

 

But this team is brutally bad. The Twins are working to try to reduce that run differential at the expense of the Cobs.

[Schwarber Fan]

well, Jeff Gray still sucks

103 in 1962 and 1966.

Currently on pace to shatter that record.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Not that it matters at this point, but holy [expletive] Soriano.

Yeah, that record is going to be rewritten this year.

We all know we were gonna be bad..
