I don't think there's ever been a team since CG's stopped being a thing that fans have been happy with the handling of the pitching staff. Baldelli has done better more often than not and has handled them much better than Molitor did in my opinion. Also, that throw by Rosario was amazing. It's like how no one likes the play calling on offense when it doesn't work 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's another reason why I can't watch baseball. There was nothing better in my lifetime than watching Jack Morris pitch a 10-inning shutout or Randy Johnson still throwing 100 MPH in the 9th inning. The reliever carousel thing that's taken the game over diminishes the entertainment level for me. Plus, the games were typically quicker too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcblack34 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Pineda suspended for 60 games. Sure glad we upgraded our rotation at the trade deadline. Wait... Maybe let Graterol have a shot as our #5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he could be one of those openers and pitch an inning or 2 but I don't think they'd want him doing more than that. At least they have plenty of pitchers if they have some short starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDBrocks Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 That was a big win. Makes the series worth only 1 in the standings after a bad loss last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Larry Fitzgerald's still got it. It wasn't that long ago that Larry Fitzgerald's retirement was a possibility. Sunday showed there was no reason for one of the all-time greats to hang them up. While the headlines will belong to Murray, Fitzgerald showed off the experience and skill in the clutch that the Cardinals needed to steer their sinking ship. It was Fitzgerald's four-yard TD catch with 47 seconds left that led to overtime, and it was his huge 45-yard gain in overtime that set up Zane Gonzalez's fourth and final field goal. Ending the afternoon with eight catches for 113 yards, Fitzgerald started his 16th season with a 100-yard game after recording just one in his 15th campaign. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001052213/article/what-we-learned-from-sundays-week-1-games 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Berrios needed a start like this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think probably even more of a confidence builder since the offense wasn't much until late in the game, so he really needed to slow down a solid line-up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshpit23 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Nice win for the Twins in game #1 of the doubleheader. Flipped the channel to watch the Gophers squeak out a nice victory over Georgia Southern. Twins have a 4.5 game lead in Central and the Gophers are 3-0...Ski-u-Mah. Now, let’s go take another one from Cleveland! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) So, basically the Twins just need to go 8-5 over the last 13 games, at worst, and it won’t matter what Cleveland does the rest of the way.
