Game Thread "Odysseus" Twins vs Royals 1:10pm cdt 9/22/2019ad

Keuchel?

 

Bumgarner? Why not both? What a haul that would be. Keuchel, Bumgarner, and throw in Cole! 

[FlauerPauer]

 

As part of the negotiations, I’d offer to keep Cruz around as long as Cruz wants to keep playing.

I really believe Cruz is a factor in Miggy’s maturation.

 

Coach?

[LVTwinsfan]

Sorry folks, watching two games here

[Don Walcott]

Coach?

Player, coach, whatever.

[IndyTwinsFan]

Keuchel?

Although I'm not familiar with his stats this year, or if he is even available this off-season, I'm not convinced he would be that much of an improvement. However, I could be wrong.

[IndianaTwin]

Player, coach, whatever.

Whatever it takes...

 

[wsnydes]

I'm watching on mute, who is hitting better than .394 in September?

[IndyTwinsFan]

Bumgarner? Why not both? What a haul that would be. Keuchel, Bumgarner, and throw in Cole!

 

That would almost be too good to believe.

As am I.

I like Sano’s sunglasses

still shopping I see

[FlauerPauer]

 

That would almost be too good to believe.

 

Of course that will never happen. But maybe one of those three with Wheeler. Wouldn't mind seeing Odorizzi resigned

 

Berrios

Bumgarner/Keuchel/Cole

Odorizzi

Wheeler

Dobnak/Smeltzer 

 

Not a terrible start.

Seriously, Rocco, you have such a quick hook when guys are pitching well but, by God, if someone is struggling, you let them throw the same amount of pitches.

 

WIN THE GAME.

That’s a great point that I’ve been struggling with for months; how Rocco can pull guys after 75 pitches when they are blowing people away, like the recent start by The Dobber , but allows Perez to get tying run on base before pulling him. Perez should have been pulled after giving up his 3rd run. It wasn’t like he was pitching well and was just unlucky; he had nothing on his pitches...

[wabene]

Can't believe Littel is only 23. Then Arraez 22 and Brusdar 21. This is a fun team and could be for a while.

[wsnydes]

Neat.

[LVTwinsfan]

I have no doubt the Twins will win the division, even if they lose today, but you cannot sit back and kick it , even if you have a six run lead. Play to win always, that’s what the fans expect, that’s what players should expect from themselves, play to win or don’t play at all

[LVTwinsfan]

It’s ok to come off the bag

[IndyTwinsFan]

That scenario would be more than acceptable to me.

Truth. A lot of fans paid good money to see today's game. 

[FlauerPauer]

Excellent relay, Arraez.

[wsnydes]

Which game will be higher scoring? Vikings or Twins?

[etwink]

Is it time to consider an extension for Sano in the offseason or wait until next offseason? He has tamed his plate discipline. He looks a lot healthier. Noticeable lack of gut. And he has mashed this season.

Totally agree. Sign up Sano, Berrios, Rosario, Garver, Rogers, etc....lock up all the guys who are producing.

[LVTwinsfan]

Pitiful way for a division winner to play their last home game

[IndyTwinsFan]

Vikes game, easily.

I have a feeling that Rosario will be traded this offseason. Not that I agree with that, but he might be the player that could headline a package and bring back a legit starter that wouldn't hurt the team in the long run. Especially with Kirilloff and Larnach most likely at AAA next year. 

 

Garver and Rogers still have plenty of serf time left. I don't know if it's the time to extend them just yet.
