Perkins need to be pulled!!! back to back to almost back homers by the Mariners. 8-4 Twins top of the 6th. I don't understand why Gardy is leaving Perkins in when he is struggling! Twins were up 8-0 at the start of the inning. Perkins just got out of the inning. The pen has been overworked and thus might be Gardy reason for sticking with Perkins.. What is down at AAA Rochester that can help the pen? Another rp is needed..

Score now 9-4 Twins. Morneau just homered. Its the 4th homerun of the inning. Gardy must pull Perkins, because Seattle all of the sudden is hitting him harder than a Livan Hernandez fastball!

This is a joke, the pen blows Bonser gives up two runs, then Guerrier enters the game to face 3 batters in which he allows a hit and TWO walks! This pen needs an overhaul right away or this alone will take us out of the playoff race and division title.
Harris throwing error makes it 10-8! Hell we were up 8-0 at one point. Bases full of Mariners and there two outs. PEN alone with the poor fielding could cost us the game..

The pen needs like a week off to do nothing. There a mess, cant get anyone out right now. Bonser needs to be released and call up someone else who can get the job done.
