00:00We're gonna pick it up wins.
00:04What's going on for the Minnesota twins Donnie didn't see this one on Tuesday night the Marlins
00:08pull off the upset but do we see a regression to the mean this afternoon is it all about
00:13the twins maybe on the run line to clear house eight and a half's the total both starting
00:18pitches with a raise closer to my Starbucks order than what you'd expect from strong stuff.
00:25Here's the problem right you're supposed to beat the Marlins you got beat last night four
00:29to one you have an easy stretch of games to end the season but it's only easy if you're
00:32pitching well and hitting well which the twins certainly aren't doing that at this time.
00:36You look at Simeon Woods Richardson is going to take the mound he's okay what's he done
00:39over the last 30 days a 346 weighted on base percentage combined against lefties and righties
00:44but that really elevates against left handed batters to a 323 ISO and a weighted on base
00:49percentage of 543 that's just too high and also through those 26 pitchers I've rated
00:54on my card today Simeon Woods Richardson he's 25th Dubsy a 5.44 ERA over the past 60
01:01days and an x-fifth number of 5.07 you've got to be kidding me I can't lay minus 188
01:07I understand they have to win and it's do or die but the pitching number doesn't equate
01:12to what that tax is at a minus 188 I'm not saying we're taking the Miami Marlins in this
01:17game they're not supposed to win this game they're dead and buried already on the season
01:20but in no way shape or form Dubsy am I paying that price of minus 188 on a struggling pitcher
01:26on the mound for the Minnesota Twins they need the win I can't back them here though.
