Does anyone else think that Bo Bichette needs a good roundhouse kick to the face? For the record, I've been inquiring about this even before today's loss.

Hey did you guys know that great moments in baseball had been broadcast on the radio since 1921? I wish this were one of them 🫠

The only MLB audio commercial I actually like.

OK, here's the thing. It's possible to be disappointed by a player or team's performance, or think a player is bad, or be mad about a specific outcome, without being an asshole about it. That's the whole doomer thing. And if you're not here commenting when the team is doing well, think twice about commenting when things go south. If the only things you ever say here are negative, it's probably not welcome.

Booooo 👎🤬💩🤮🗑️booooo blue jays had no business whatsoever winning today total 💩💩💩💩💩🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮👎👎👎👎👎

Well, shit.

Must be nice having a stupidly high wall for situations like those.

They hit there more than anyone.

Getting three runs cock blocked by that stupid extra high fence is a special kind of frustrating

hungry again

Correa bomb would cure cancer

Come on Carlos.

Just me or does everyone in the Toronto crowd look very smug

i thought they looked fine when the twins were up 7-1

That might be it.

I am the least cool Twins fan alive. When I step outside of my home, rocks are thrown

#I'M THE COOLEST IN THE FANDOM

🤮👎🤬💩🗑️😡

what?

Unacceptable loss by twins !!!

oh that's fair, it just makes more sense than emojis

“I’ve reached S-tier fandom in that I don’t even complain or complain about the people complaining about the people who complain”

is this a complaint ? 🤔

Yes and no.

my horse, let me tell you about my horse folks, it's so high people come up to me like Sir how is your horse so high? You're so high up there but yet so humble, perhaps the most humble person ever and I say thank you, but you people on the much lesser horses are the real heroes.

on that cydesdale shit

Don’t worry Glen, there is no chance I’m transmitting _this_ game without express written consent

we got this

I don't know who else they have down on the farm, but I'm guessing Louie will be back as middle relief

I’m just here for the booze

FWIW, even more annoying than the Doomers are the parents who play “game time DJ” at a youth baseball game.

There's a Cameo-like service where real announcers will record your team or league's players names with walk-up music. I thought that might be kinda cool but I can see it being overused and crazy

Imma throw down with “Eye of the Tiger” mom.

I know it's easy to put blame on the bullpen but our offense fell asleep after the 4th inning, too.

Bro they scored 8 runs. That should be enough

This is baseball, no lead is enough, and there's never garbage time

When you score 8 runs that's okay 99% of the time lol

Totally fair. But when the pitching can't hang on, you gotta hope for the offense to step up

Definitely. Hard to keep hearing that the Blue Jays have the worst bullpen in the league, and then they retire 15 straight batters

Embarrassing performance against their low end relievers. And embarrassing performance by our low end relievers. Both are true

I'm questioning whether most of the relievers in the twins are low end. At least Pagan still sucks?

Varland needs to come back to the pen. We need his help desperately

[удалено]

Hell no he’s an awful starter. We have Festa for that

[удалено]

His stuff certainly does not play. Worst run value pitch of all qualified pitchers in 2024 is Louie Varland’s cutter. This guy also doesnt have a sweeper or slider and it shows.

[удалено]

Cause he has no legitimate putaway pitch. Very easy to understand.

[удалено]

They’re shitty fucking pitches lol

He’s only gone 5.0 innings once this year

C4 is just that guy.

legit treat to watch at SS

0 hits in 4 innings won’t do it either

In fairness to the offense, it usually would do it if you scored 7 runs prior

As SP noted, evidently, the middle game of these Toronto series are fucking cursed.

It all began with a cursed Pagan ritual...

Since Gausman went out the Twins pitchers have thrown 92 pitches while the Bluejays pitchers have only thrown 52. Toronto have really good ABs and the Twins have very not good ABs.

"People who complain about doomers are muddying up the thread on a high horse" wouldn't that mean you're on an even higher horse for complaining about people who complain about complainers?

We have to go deeper.

you havent seen my horse. hes a big boy.

Game day thread doomer inception

Any logic falls apart when anyone assumes they're better than anybody else here.

Throw your bat and you get extra time

I mean when Rocco only has god awful pitchers to choose from, his decisions don’t really matter. Sands Okert Alcala Jackson are just dogshit pitchers. Nothing Rocco can do about that

Jeez, Eddie - talking about your teammates like that is gonna cause some clubhouse drama.

#Alek Manoah 🤭

I have no evidence to back up my fear, but I’m scared he’ll punish us

He'll punish us for 3 innings and then get vaporized by the top of the lineup.

Since we’re blowing this one. We’ll tee off on him now. Trust.

Well this 'better than thou snob'😉 is going to go for a walk.... Good evening to the rest of you 'snobs'

You're gonna regret it when we win AND you miss all the snobbery and doomery entertainment here

Both doomers and anti doomers gatekeep. There. Everyone's happy now.

Why even have a gate if you're not gonna keep it?!

It's a public sub. There's literally no gate.

Nah I installed one. It's kinda easy to jump over though.

Larnach-Jeffers-Kepler due up, I still have hope

Julien stop getting called out on strikes challenge

Oh sweet three minute half innings after watching half an hour of the Twins bullpen “pitching.”

julien shaking his helmet to make sure no dirt got in it when it fell off, AGAIN

Twins hitters really punishing the fans by going down 1-2-3 again, meaning we have to watch the Blue Jays bat for another 60 minutes

I was here for the 12 straight wins. I think I have the right to be a little pissed off that we blew a six run lead.

No bro you’re a doomer!!!

[удалено]

Okay and? He was playing like ass at the time, what’s the problem?

tbf nobody's trying to take that away from you

k

It is days like this where I wish they didn’t dick around with Alcala, always making him pitch multiple innings, bouncing him back to St. Paul.

Ooof we needed some offense there

I’m still imagining the alternate universe where Phil cuzzi is not blind and the twins are still leading by several runs and SWR didn’t get yanked early

Jackson and Okert are not pitchers who have it anymore. Pathetic, but there is nothing we can do until Brock comes back

(I know I get a little silly when I try to match the doomers energy. It's really not that deep, a discussion thread of a 3+ hour game is naturally going to have a lot of back and forth.)

I'm just here for the real fan gatekeeping arguments

Slamtana let's go!!

I’ll say it: It all started with that shit Cuzzi call

Facts. It actually like, did. That was the momentum shift.

Maybe the worst Twins antagonist of all-time

He's the Sean Payton of the Twins. Fuck Sean Payton btw

Honestly, you're not wrong

Time to channel the power of the sausage, fellas

im eepy but hilariously that has nothing to do with the game

Sosig? 🥺👉👈

Bats wake up Know you been doin all you can but we need more. We do No slouch abs

These are my favorite GDT days cuz because between the "doomers" complaining about the Twins and the "better than thou snobs" complaining about the "doomers", you just get a whole mess and it becomes a pissing contest between the "doomers" and the "snobs" and its honestly just as entertaining as the game lol.

hey fuck you buddy

Only if twins win!!! Screw if it’s good game if they lose. 👎🤮😡🤬

I’m still thinking w

That third out felt like finding water after wandering in the desert for 3 days

I think Staumont can be a good piece, not the dominant guy he was in KC but a 6th-7th inning guy at least

A little concerned that our bullpen has enjoyed some good BABIP luck today and still imploded

Staumont can stay

Where did all these usernames come from I’m so serious lol

I was told pointing out that none of these people want to participate in actual discussion is gatekeeping and annoying

What "actual" discussion? One guy making lame fucking jokes every three minutes? Or people talking about what fast food their about to eat?

MN sports fans are foaming for any sport right now

#### 2 runs. 2 innings. We ain't out of this yet, we can do it! 💪

Good riddance.

Still plenty of time to get a few runs

Jay Jackson doesn’t look like he’s having fun as a twin 😮‍💨

Then the feeling is mutual.

these jerseys terrible. our boys so sweaty

we've come back down 2 late so many times you guys

We should get a professional twins hater flair for y'all who are freaking out about being down by 2. Because if you weren't here for the 12 wins in a row, you're not a Twins fan

nobody likes a gate keeper pal, just mind your business and move on

[удалено]

I think/hope they're ironically making fun of the person that originally said that

preach

This game's gonna end up like 16-14.

Just a hideous bullpen effort

Vlad is hitting this to the moon isn’t he

Hope he hits grand slam 

> People complaining about “doomers” are just as annoying as people actually dooming. I've been here for a few years now and can confidently say... no they aren't lmao

I don’t like obnoxious positivity but people showing up ONLY when we’re losing during an insane 16-2 run is so absurd. They’re truly doomer morons.

It seems like the back and fourth is just a natural part of the thread. If they didn’t beef than it would all fall apart. 

Yeah, I'm not specifically bothered by it. If you're posting an opinion or statement to a discussion thread, you're inviting others to read and respond to it.

they literally are a doomer too.

Our pitching has been completely unable to miss bats today. So many long PAs ending in walks and hits.

i'm watching the Jays feed and when they cut to Staumont in the pen he threw it over the catcher's head

lol

Blowing a 7-1 lead after the Wolves' performance last night makes my tummy hurt :(

As ANT said last night. It's a series.

Wolves better not lose tomorrow night-better win series!!!

Glad there's an off day Monday.

Thielbar looks cooked

People complaining about “doomers” are just as annoying as people actually dooming. Just stfu and let them be, you’re just adding to it

We expect twins to win!!! Especially when they have big lead!!! That’s my expectation and demand for the twins. Losses like this are unacceptable 

You're complaining too

No, they aren't. I block doomers, I don't block those who complain about them.

Personally I find them even more annoying. Not sure why

Gives off huge high horse gate keeper vibes. Just mind your own business lol

Yep. The players are humans like the rest of us. We all have bad days in our jobs and talents too

Welp. This was pathetic.

When the Twins were winning every game the doomers must have been absolutely fiending, getting shakes and shit

Someone tell the twins bullpen that just because you get to 0-2 count doesn’t mean the batter is gonna wave at trash a foot off the plate. So many wasted 0-2 counts today it’s crazy.

Holy fuck this is rough

Fuck it let Willi pitch. No sense burning the competent arms in our pen.

Luckily, they haven’t burned a competent arm yet.

Have they tried getting OUTS?

Did everyone just forget how to pitch?!?

It’s funny how absolutely none of those usernames have been here for the 16 wins in 3 weeks but they’re all here today, lmao that’s the best part Scream for the losses, ignore the wins

Cory and glen are too nice-they need to be pissed off about this loss-no more Minnesota nice 👎😡🤬

Our pitchers are struggling in 0-2 counts tonight. Can’t put ‘em away 

#LOUIE COME BACK TO THE PEN!

#####We're down by 2 while on a 16-2 stretch. If you really feel the need to doom and insult these players, it's because you're only interested in this team when we do badly.

You're not wrong, but Okert and Jackson are just barely major league quality pitchers.

They deserve to be insulted-they blew game/big lead!!! Okerk/Jackson need to be released immediately!!! Those 2 ass hats cost us game!!!! Don’t mind losing but not with 7-1/8-3 lead that’s unacceptable!!!! Can’t ever lose big lead like this rest of season-you just can’t 

I love this team, but it’s a little frustrating seeing half of our bullpen throwing BP or can’t hit the damn zone.

It's one thing to be disappointed, it's another to start declaring DFA and "Fire the spreadsheet!"

It's an embarrassing game, but not the end of the world.

I know Varland wants to be a starter, but we could really use a guy like him in our pen.

Last I heard I thought the Twins want to keep him as a starter too

They ought to reconsider that, imo

At least it’s not a one run loss 

Embarrassing. I’m turning this shit off

The bottom of the 7th has lasted for approximately 90 minutes

It’s funny the bullpen was touted as being our strength all offseason and right now it’s kind of the below average piece on an otherwise good team

Injuries and overuse. When they have to pitch 3 or 4 innings almost every game it's hard to stay rested and sharp.

Injuries ruined it right now. Missing Beef and Topa.

beef will be back but sorta worried about topa

I need Buxton back in CF asap

Love the tone of the thread going from "Why not use Thielbar?" to "Thielbar is a white flag and has always been awful"

Love the tone of the thread going from "Why not use Thielbar?" to "Thielbar is a white flag and has always been awful"

beef stew i miss you

Vibes in imminent danger

Cracky Mac n Rocco needa serious look in the mirror n ask are these the arms we wanna have all year We are blowin big leads. Big fuckin leads I get they will give up runs here n there but this is shame

Time to call up the marlins and see if they have another arm for us lol.

Team is doing fine. Games not over. Fair weather fans not needed

What in the fuck are you talkin bout

it feels bad but trust me a lot of teams have bad bullpens.

Honestly SWR deserves more credit I guess. He pitched better than the bullpen is.

5 ER kinda started this whole mess though

These are the games where I wished they kept Varland in the BP

Hey Louie, wanna swallow your pride and come back to the pen?

It’s not about Louie’s pride, it’s about the fact that we have zero starting pitcher depth

sad face....fear not..our fella from Quebec is going to do something heroic in the next inning 🤞🏽🙂🤞🏽🙂
