The dreaded 8th inning again

I'm all for blaming TLR, but Cease should've been able to get Call.

Much rather see strikeouts if they extend at-bats and make solid contact instead of so much early weak contact to the opposite field

He can't get the slider over anymore.

Dylan definitely losing it a bit.

More strikeouts, lots of pull side homers. More effective overall for certain.

Scanned through it. How is his stance not open in the video you posted?

Yes? His stance in every at bat here is wide open.

Eloy's always done that.

Could use some bullpen help - maybe Kimbrel would benefit from a change of scenery?

Pilkington is absolutely junkballing this lineup now

Pretty good at bat by Eloy so far EDIT: Never mind

Steven Kwan would fit right in with the 2000s Twins

LOL that was either a double play or Eloy destroying his hamstrings again, but luckily Ramirez isn't playing third

Eloy having trouble catching up to 92

Luis just hit that about 110 I'd bet

Dunno if you guys remember The Dugout/Word Up Thome but WordUpThome: HEY TEAM, JI WordUpThome: JIM THOME HERE, NEW MANAGER OF YOUR CHICAGO WHITE STOXS WordUpThome: FIRST ITEM ON THE OL' AGENDER - HAVE YOU ALL, PERCHANCE, CONSIDERED SOCKING A FEW MORE DINGERS HERE & ANON? WordUpThome: I THINK IT WOULD GREATLY IMPROVE OUR CHANCE OF VICTORY AGAINST THOSE PESKY IND GUARDIANS AND TWIN CITY TRASH BAGS WordUpThome: THANKS I'LL HANG UP AND LISTEN

Good burn Clase out tonight. Make him work White Sox (they won’t).

Lynn has also had trouble after 80 pitches in every start this year. You keep an eye on that and have backup ready in case he struggles. This isn't hard.

I'm fine with Lynn starting the inning but after the first hitter reached he should be out. DEFINITELY after the second.

He needs to be out now.

Yoan KILLED that ball, unfortunately it was right at the RF. Tim and Robert had awful at-bats.

He swung at a pitch in the dirt

Lynn in trouble again

Seby had a pitch there but couldn't keep it fair
