The last thing we need is for Grossman to back as a member of the Rays next year, killing all the butterflies with his lefty hacks.

 

Or for Schafer to mess up the dirt when he digs in to strike out or falls face down between first and second.

 

Or when Beresford comes to town killing all the infield worms with those hot grounders, Moneyballing it up all over Target Field.

 

MLB needs to give the Twins another AAA affiliate to avoid these situations. 80-man roster cover all of these guys or do we need/deserve 90+?

Bringin' the lumber...

 

This could be a good strategic move-  kind of an inverse-parabolic-pseudo-counter-intuitive kinda thing.  Instead of giving up a run as soon as your team scores, giving up a run as soon as your team squanders a leadoff double, and doesn't score-- so as to show your own hitters how they should be doing it?

 

Make sense to anyone but me?

Yup, makes sense to me.  Tough love.

Lancaster Barnstormers lamenting the one that got away with that swing.

 

Do the Twins need to send them a PTBNL for this kind of production?

I'm sick of watching ineptitude and feel-good moments don't even come close to making up for it.

Yeah, but I used to play D&D and watch Star Trek a lot, so that's prob'ly not the kind of rock solid external validation you were looking for...

He's best known as Second Jawa from the Right, but I think that undersells his credentials by a good bit.

Why play for a tie in the 7th at home again?  Stupid bunt.  Stupid steal.  We need at least 2 runs to win no matter what.  Stupid.

Dozier easily scores from first on that (if everything else happened the same) and he easily could have been thrown out...  smh.
