Valdez started the year 4/5 in QS. Since then, 3/9.

The hit batters killed him tonight. Beaned 2 straight before the homer. Can’t give them freebies like that

Bats need to bail us out

Valdez probably has trouble sleeping if he doesn’t hit at least 1 batter. You can tell he really enjoys it.

He has a very bad attitude. It reminds me of someone.

I haven’t read the thread, so maybe this may have already been mentioned.

Is his new name…“Freebie Valdez”??

And the “blowpen” strikes again.

Drew Should have been taken out and an Uber should have been ready to take him back to Toledo.

Need to edit….

because AJ threw Finnegan for 5 outs last night in a game that wasn’t close… and then we get Sommers in a high leverage situation tonight???

.

And… AJ took Carp out of the game… to pinch hit Vierling???

Seriously? Eff the “matchups” for a hot minute!…

because Carp would now be batting against a right hander as the potential tying run in the 9th inning!!!

That’s bat shitt crazy managing right there!!!

In fairness Vierling hit that ball 407 feet. tough break there he crushed that

I would like to see Carp get some chances vs lefties. He’s never gonna learn to hit them when he never gets a chance.

The ironic thing is that Vierling entering the game made it easy for the Twins to the lefty (Adams) out of the game with Dingler up next.

Adams’ ERA is over 7.00 for each of the last 2 seasons.

AJ confirmed that Skubal will go Sat and Mize on Sunday assuming they have no problems during their sessions.

His last start was April 29th. So only missed about 6 weeks after surgery. Pretty incredible.
