Guys, make a thread once in a while, will ya?

I know the Twins are down, but they battle us tough. I am looking forward to seeing Rodon and Latos pitch again.

Everything I read about the Twins said they were going to struggle this year but they are a special brand of terrible. Holy shit.

The Twins look like they are going to take their lumps but I like what they are doing. They have a nice group of young guys that could be something. Could year for on the job training for guys like Buxton.

Decent outing by Rodon. He still need to get the walks down to the 2-3 per start range.

Didn't see the game and five walks is a lot. Was he missing by a lot or getting squeezed? I love his slider and I also love his presence on the mound.

Missing by quite a bit.

Hawk,
What's up with Nate Jones' delivery? He's advertising the pitch each time to the hitter. Seems very odd to me.

Latos is nearly at a 1.0 WAR already. For what, $3 million? Steal of the offseason so far.

Curious to see what happens when we play some more talented teams.

Robertson 5\5 with saves already. Great start to the season.

I agree with you. Someone could easily make the case that we played the two worst teams in the AL thru our first three series. I'd be hard pressed to argue against that.

Yeah. I really don't know why he does this. He's had this delivery ever since he came up and it is really odd. Certainly not how you teach it. My guess that it is a balance thing with him.
