2019 Game 101: New York Yankees at Minnesota Twins

J.A. Happ
vs
Jake Odorizzi

One more against the Yankees this year, at least until the postseason. Odorizzi won the only game in New York with six scoreless innings. The bullpen tried to blow it that time too but Parker and Rogers managed to hold on to win.

  1. These ESPN announcers are awful. They all think viewers like or care about them. Just terrible. All of Howard Cossell's worst fears have come true and are embodied by these 3 jack asses.

  2. Im out. Ill check back in 3 hours to see if its a game in the 8th inning. Sure has the ear marks of not being competitive tonight. This is not an October ready team right now.

    1. Neither are the Yankees, then. Their rotation looks wretched, and their super awesome bullpen (the type of guys you'd trade for) sure didn't look very solid last night.

      1. There is a big difference between the NYY bullpen struggling vs one of the best offenses in the league and the Twins DFA'ing half of their bullpen and making AAA callups. This Twins team is going to be a retread of the early 2000 teams - AL Central winner - swept out of the playoffs by a superior team.

  3. At least their pitcher is bad too. Nice of the Yankees to give the Twins some false hope.

      1. I didn't mean to imply that, but it's hard to come back from 9-3 plus comebacks are less likely this year. I think the Syndrome would be about believing the Twins will lose even if they're winning 9-3.

  4. When I went to plug the players from last night into my games attended spreadsheet I learned that apparently David Hale was once a Twin and that I happened to see him pitch as a Twin. Has there ever been a less memorable Twin?

    1. The roster churn of the final Gardy years has some "I don't remember that dude" dudes

  5. The seltzer water boy is killing it. Too bad he wasn’t with the big league club yesterday

  6. Haven't been watching too closely, but this looks like the kind of "no quit" team I was hoping to see. I don't think the Yankees scare them.

    1. Dude has absolutely no legs and still punishes the twins. Why the sweet god do you throw him anything he can hit.

  7. Padding didi’s numbers pisses me off more than anything. Between his face and Aaron Judge’s face I can’t pick which is more punchable.
