GCTF Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Sounds like this was planned to keep Perez extended, and limit Pineda after injury. Sounds like this was planned to keep Perez extended, and limit Pineda after injury.Bold strategy, Cotton.
Hosken Bombo Disco Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Sounds like this was planned to keep Perez extended, and limit Pineda after injury.On some level its the right call, but as a fan you hate to see a guy dominating like that get pulled.
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Even when failing to score end the first two games, this team seems much more enjoyable to watch.
Joe A. Preusser Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Come on Perez, you were my pick for our darkhorse pitching MVP.
ashbury Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Pineda's and Perez's stuff are so different that they seem on paper to be a good pairing. I'm just bothered by Perez's command so far, after being spoiled by Pineda painting the corners repeatedly.
twinssporto Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Interesting to see Perez attack the inside corner of the plate on the righties.

ScooterDance Provisional Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Chip on the Shoulder Buxton is Good Buxton. I'm cautiously optimistic.
RedBull34 Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 On some level its the right call, but as a fan you hate to see a guy dominating like that get pulled.I was a little surprised they didn't let him go the 5th inning.
Jax Provisional Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Nice two-strike hit by Buxton. He looks so much better than last year. *knocks on wood*With Sano coming back in a few weeks those two guys are going to be huge
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 On some level its the right call, but as a fan you hate to see a guy dominating like that get pulled.If it helps him make it to September, I’m game.
Joe A. Preusser Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 On some level its the right call, but as a fan you hate to see a guy dominating like that get pulled.Agreed, but I also like the idea of him strong enough to keep dominating right through October.
ScooterDance Provisional Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Chip on the Shoulder Buxton is Good Buxton. I'm cautiously optimistic.Andrew Wiggins needs to drink some of that koolaid
Danchat Old-Timey Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Huh, I would have guessed Pineda would at least have been able to go 60 pitches or so... good luck, Perez.
ashbury Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Bold strategy, Cotton.Let's see if it pays off.
twinssporto Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Come on Perez, you were my pick for our darkhorse pitching MVP.I think he is going to be awesome this year. throwing 97 and a lefty to boot is a good thing.
ScrapTheNickname Provisional Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 How do you feel about seeing the electronic strike zone before and during every pitch?I hate it.It should be visible for the replay, certainly, but not in real time.Thoughts?
LaBombo Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Even when failing to score end the first two games, this team seems much more enjoyable to watch. Thinking that myself. And to go with that thought, I'd rather hope for hitting to come around than pitching.
twinssporto Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Throwing 98mph heat for the strike out. Impressive.
Twodogs Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Not sure why they took Pineda out. He was cruising.
PseudoSABR Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Remember when the Twins had a pitch-to-contact starting staff? Pepperidge farm remembers.
twinssporto Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Thinking that myself. And to go with that thought, I'd rather hope for hitting to come around than pitching.I think this team is going to mash a lot of baseballs this summer barring injuries, etc.
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Huh, I would have guessed Pineda would at least have been able to go 60 pitches or so... good luck, Perez.Yeah, keeping Perez stretched out was probabky just as big of a factor as keeping Pineda healthy. Control didn’t really seem to be Perez’s issue in the past, he was just extremely hittable. His first inning here was shaky, but not from a making contact standpoint. I was more encouraged than discouraged.
glunn Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 This would be a good inning for insurance runs..
PseudoSABR Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 This Cruz guy might be a good pick up for the Twins.
GCTF Verified Member Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 This would be a good inning for insurance runs..Prophetic.
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Not a bad pitch. I like having a hitter who can jack one low and away.
