We'll see how Javier does in game 3 but I think it's gonna be clear who our 2nd starter is after that. Framber was tonight who he's been since the All Star break

Has Javier pitched to Diaz at all this season?

You'd think with us going back to Minnesota 1-1, the momentum/advantage shifts to the Twins and you'd want to put your best lineup in especially after this pathetic offense tonight.

Yes he has, but we all know who will start that game

Game 3 is going to tell me all I need to know on whether the FO has any say in lineups.

I don't think there's any excuse not to start Diaz.

Just tip your hat to Lopez tonight for the way he pitched us, regroup, and go win the next two.

We can blame Framber, and he sucked tonight.

But it's pretty hard to win a game scoring zero runs. Statistics say if you score zero runs… you are unlikely to win.

Yah, if there's any consolation...

If we are getting Garbage Framber, at least we wasted him against the Twins' best starter with this terrible offense tonight. Wouldn't have mattered if Framber pitched a gem.

I feel better about these other matchups going forward.

Pretty concerned about all the advantages going the Twins way in game 3 but I hope worst case they can get it to 5 and hand the ball to Verlander again.

Especially after how maldy played in Minnesota earlier this year. Remember how many passed balls he had there that he blamed on the "glare"? I really hope diaz gets the start, but I have no confidence it will happen.

That was a good 8th by Montero.

I wonder how much different this all would have gone if Framber had been good. Opposing pitcher never felt pressure with the big lead, our batters probably felt every pitch was high leverage.

Oh well. Relax and see if we can scratch a couple across if for nothing more than a little feel good going home tonight.

You know it's bad when the "game recap" video shown at the stadium is all crowd shots and 2 defensive plays

The problem is that our rotation (especially Framber) gives up a ton if early runs since the ASB and the lineup then starts pressing as a result.

We have got to be one of the worst teams in the mlb the last month or so giving up runs inning 1-2

It puts you in a difficult hole to come out of. Like starting a FB game in the hole 17-0 after 5 minutes and your offense starts changing the pregame plan as a result

Walks continue to kill us too

You can't start getting into ball 3 counts in the first inning and expect a good outcome in the playoffs.

Go after the hitters. If they hit a solo home run, who gives a ****, that's more rare than the predictable walk-> advanced runner to 2nd --> hit = run
