getting outscored

Tough week to look at. Getting outscored by 15 in a week. That tanks the score. The bright spot: coming off a win by 2. That energy is baked into the score.

Twins News

Joe Ryan's arm fatigue continues to plague the Twins as he is scratched from today's start against the Athletics, a decision that reflects the team's ongoing struggles. With a dismal 2-5 record over the past week and a staggering run differential of -21, the Twins are in desperate need of stability on the mound. The situation worsened when Mike Paredes also fell victim to injury during warmups, forcing Kendry Rojas into action at the last minute. Rojas delivered a solid performance, but the depth issues are becoming alarming as the trade deadline looms. The Twins sit at 51-54, and with their pitching staff yielding an alarming 6.1 runs per game lately, a turnaround seems more urgent than ever. Fans are left wondering what moves the front office will make to inject life into this faltering roster.
