Cool

a rough stretch

Hard to feel good about the data. Going 2-5 lately. That drags everything down. Also weighing on the score: a 6.1 RA/G from the pitching staff weighs on everything.

Twins News

The Minnesota Twins continue to tread water, sitting at 51-53 after a frustrating week that saw them drop three of four. Yesterday's 3-1 victory over the Guardians offered a fleeting glimpse of hope, but the reality is stark: their pitching staff has been a liability, allowing an alarming 6.1 runs per game over the past week. Zebby Matthews' disastrous outing earlier this week, where he surrendered 10 runs, is a prime example of their struggles. As they look to right the ship against the Athletics, the release of veteran Orlando Arcia adds a layer of uncertainty to the roster. Meanwhile, excitement brews for new talent as the third overall draft pick, Vahn Lackey, signed his contract, bringing a fresh spark to a team desperately needing one.

The A’s came into the game with the worst pitching staff (statistically) in baseball. The Twins sure couldn’t take advantage of it this time.
