Agreed.  It's gonna be ugly from time to time.  Especially with the pitchers.

 

Example:  Berrios is getting pulled for Bubba Boshers.   Ugly / Ugly.

I wish "time to time" didn't happen so frequently and last so long

I'm a bachelor tonight, the wife took the kids to her parents for the weekend. I will be checking this thread while I sit at various bars in my town. All by myself.

My wife says it's sad and creepy. I say it's long past due.

All sarcastic complaining aside, it really is incredibly alarming that max Kepler (in limited time) and Rosario (inconsistently) are the only big time prospects not completely stinking up the joint. Very very alarming.

Don't worry, someone will find Kepler's weakness. Probably about the time Sano figures out how to lay off those off breaking pitches.

It's both, of course.

Can't argue.  Each of these guys don't really have anything to prove in the MiLB anymore.   Boston was patient with Bradley Jr. and Bogaerts.  Worked out pretty well.

 

Twins will need to be patient with Berrios, Sano, Buxton, Duffey....

Yeah, that's enough   :blink:

Man, a steal of second, a steal of third and an rbi ground out....on three pitches. That's embarrassing.

This shows how incredibly conservative most mlb teams are. If I were managing against the Twins, my guys would steal on every pitch with Suzuki behind the plate. We would have guys on third base all day long.

They really need a catcher that can actually be a catcher, instead of some guy that just crouches back there. Anyone with moderate speed takes a walk in the late innings, and it's a free run.

 

You can literally find guys off the street that can control the running game better than Suzuki.
