So will the Twins Cleveland series be a complete series rained out?
Knowing the Twins and past practices at Target Field, they’ll wait until after gates are open and around 7:45 call tonight’s game. I can’t count how many times since Target Field opened, it was very clear the game wasn’t happening cause of rain. And the Twins would wait well after the gates opened and what was supposed to be first pitch to call the game.
Keep your stick on the ice...
We had tickets a couple years ago to a Cubs game at Wrigley and Chicago set a record for most rain in a day and somehow the rain stopped and the game was played in full.So will the Twins Cleveland series be a complete series rained out?

The game was delayed quite a while and I was pissed they dragged out what seemed to be the inevitable cancellation. But I’ll be damned, they played.
Can they play a triple header tomorrow? End of yesterdays game then today’s and tomorrow’s game?
Aloha!

the guardians have to be in Detroit fior their next series so the most they would play on Wednesday would be the one game plus the partial. They’d make up the scratched game tonight in a doubleheader in September when they come back here. That’s what I understand anyway.

Not looking good. April no showers bring May showers
Even with winning one of the games today, the stupid late inning struggles against Cleveland continue.
I’m sure they’d never come out and say it, but the Twins have to be privately concerned about Royce Lewis. Batting.141 this year, not to mention his horrible 2nd half last season.
Twins were down 6-3 in the ninth with 2 outs, get 3 to tie it and then 6 in the 10th and win 12-6! Of course I fell asleep at 6-3. A more normal game time tonight not the 9:00.
Game stopped for a fire alarm? That’s a new one.
Funny the announcer says probably some teenage kid playing a joke. They do cook food at ballparks so there’s that so I didn’t know at first what to think of his comment other than ok possibly a kid but come on it could be anything dude.😁
Maybe some old lady got served some bad sushi and rapped 3 alarms with her cane wheeling by in her chair that ran into an innocent teenager when she wasn’t looking.😂
Twins have runners on first and third no outs and can’t score in the 11th

Easily the best food at an MLB ballpark and I’ve been to a few but seemed more like a software glitch

And immediately pay for it
I knew they’d lose this one because I could watch it.
First game I’ve really sat down and watched this season. Could have been me too. 😂
Wallner gets doubled up at 2nd, then later thrown out by 3 feet at home in extra innings. They could’ve had bases loaded and no outs. He hit the two run homer earlier so he washed his own hands there. His base running was costly to the team but if he was waved home on the throw out that’s not all on him and the plow he dragged either. Tough loss.
Aloha!
Does anyone have the mytwins membership? Just saw a commercial about it so I looked it up and read about it. I don’t quite understand it.
IALTO
The Twins have the 3rd best record in the AL. Unfortunately, they now have to move forward without Lopez for a while.

A "strained" muscle and he's out half the season?
Anything with a pitchers shoulder isn’t good, this isn’t what the starting rotation needed. My guess is if they’re in the post season hunt he’ll come back for the push otherwise it’s possible he gets shut down if games are meaningless because it’s not worth the possible set back. Just my thought anyway.
If you’re in Afton, head up. This Buck Bomb was last seen heading in that direction. 🤯

479: also about how many HR's Bonds hit while on PEDs.
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
they are getting hammered right now 6-1
Aloha!
10-3 L tonight.
Oh and Lewis is hurt again. Death spiral starting early this summer.
The Twins have given up 40 runs in the last 4 games
Aloha!
Looks like another season I can stop paying attention to by July.
I can’t believe I just watched ALL of that.
How can the Twins pitching that a month ago people were saying they had the best relief pitching in the league now they give up so many runs per game it looks like a football game score board
Aloha!
Could be a dumb question… but is there an advantage having your dugout on the 1st base side or 3rd base side?
The Twins were on the 3rd at the Dome and switched to the 1st base side at Target Field.
Keep your stick on the ice...
Is this the beginning of the end for Rocco?

they just picked up his option a couple days ago for 2026 so he’s probably not getting fired this year.
Not his fault everyone is getting hurt and the team isn't spending money this year (insert Pohlad joke on the latter part).

there is a couple reasons that I think I know. One there’s more outs than hits in a game especially on the first base side of the field. It’s less energy spent to be on that side. Another thing is something about target fields layout being safer on that side, something to do with the netting or whatever. I don’t know for sure what is exactly different. Another thought that comes to mind is where the sun is and if the figured that into the time of year for hot afternoon games and if they are better shaded then maybe?

I blame Rocco for this and that but not the overall collapse or for the hand he was dealt before the season even started plus like you mentioned injuries to stud players. I throw an occasional f bomb his way with his pitching staff in game management more than anything with him but he’s managing a team that’s had him walking on egg shells since the opener so I think he does the best he can with what he has to this point.
I think we all know you can’t fire the team so you fire the coach. I could see a new owner wanting to chart their own path

If/when the Twins are sold, then yes, Rocco is probably gone. And I am not saying Rocco doesn't make mistakes, but he has been handcuffed a bit.

Talking about the shaded side, @handyman might know this. Why is Gopher Football on the shaded side compared to the visitors on the sunny. Especially in late October and November it’s definitely warmer on the visitors sideline and stands. I know the visitors tunnel is on that side. Though it’s far enough down the side to interfere with with the Gophers being on that side.

3 in a row and a huge 4-1 win at Detroit to open that series tonight! Just when it looks hopeless they still keep battling. I think with a bad manager that just doesn’t happen, I give him credit where credit is due.
Not sure how many will remember this player, but RIP Hosken Powell

An outfield rotation of Disco Dan Ford, Hosken Powell, Willie Norwood and Bombo Rivera. Makes me feel really old.

Twins lose today 7-5 in 10
Aloha!
It was a beautiful day at the ballpark, too bad we let that one get away!
