Red Sox vs Twins Series Review

Back To Reality... AND THEN BAM THEY ARE BACK

MLB Insider Matt Rosen’s quote of the series.

“Red Sox learned today that if they score runs, they’ll win ballgames. Maybe we do that more?”

Overall Takeaway

This series was very boring. I think everything is just more depressing in Minnesota. Also, I don’t like any of the players on the Twins if we are being honest. Mainly Carlos Correa who is one of the most overrated players of this generation. Go Sox.

Game 1: Twins 5-2

Game 2: Twins 3-1

Game 3: Red Sox 9-2

What I Loved

• Tyler O’Neill

  • Has same WRC+ as Shohei Ohtani (Alright, he did as of Saturday morning, but this sounds good so go with it.)

• Reese McGuire Stealing A Bag

  • Rafaela has one more stolen bag than Reese this year. Let that sink in.

• Cooper Criswell

  • He has gone from a 5.73 ERA last year to a 1.74 ERA this year. Not dramatic to say that he is a big part of this team staying above .500.

• Vaughn Grissom

  • Yeah, he only got one hit, but it was a big one. Have to be excited for some new blood on the field.

• Rafael Devers

  • I said in my last review that I need a Rafael Devers home run BAD. He delivered

    • Now is batting .292 with a .917 OPS. Puts him in the Top 20 for OPS in the league. He’s back.

• Red Sox Avoid Sweep

  • They have only been swept once this season. That was to the Orioles a few weeks back. It was also the series that ended Jackson Holliday’s confidence (ATM), so the Red Sox got a win there.

    What I Was "Mid" About

• The Offense

  • Four runs from Thursday-Saturday is not sustainable. Learned to play again on Sunday.

• Cora Pushing Houck

  • This could also be Houck/Bailey saying he could go deeper on Friday. However, he didn’t look like he did when he had that complete game gem. Him going six innings consistently is good enough for me. Don’t get cute Cora!

What I Didn't Love

• Garrett Cooper

  • Look, if he is going to be batting .077 then the team might as well bring back Bobby Dalbec for the vibes.
