So they are showcasing Sano for a trade this weekend?  

Sano for Ohtani.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Arraez vs a lefty, huh

Seattle gave up their top prospect and three more, the top bring one of the top twenty overall. So, the twins would have to give up Lewis, and three more of their top fifteen to match that. You'd be good with that?

Perhaps Falvey may have backed off their demands.....

[cHawk]

Can we not strike out here? Can we also not GIDP?

All Twins starting pitchers are not very  impressive.   

 

Based on recent starts, it almost looks like we need 5 starters, which probably means we won't get anyone of significance,  if we even get anyone. 

[cHawk]

Win the 3-2, Sanchino!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I agree about the uniforms — don’t they have any tailors in San Diego?

(ok read carefully, I set that on a tee—who’s the first who will take a whack at that)

That's a good one! ?

I haven't commented on San Diego's uniforms yet and I'll just say this - Ew

They have lots of sailors

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

And the radio guys were just talking about Hosmer’s defense suffering 

[cHawk]

Sanchez wins that battle!

[darwin22]

Unless some major moves are coming-------which I find extremely doubtful-------this team, which has overachieved this season, will hopefully find a way to finish the season above .500.  

When I looked at the 2nd half schedule........68 games.........I predicted a record of 33-35, which would put the Twins at 83-79 at seasons end.  That will result in a 3rd place finish, which though disappointing, would be a 10-game improvement over last years train wreck.

Agree.  Stranger things have definitely happened.

You can see it coming.  He goes to new team.  New team tweaks his swing.  New Sano turns into what Sano was heralded to be when coming up with Twins.

Maybe?

[Parfigliano]

Ump roulette.  He has called that ball 4 strike 3 several times tonight

[cHawk]

Sano isn't having a good night

[jimbo92107]

What the heck are those Padres uniforms, Psychedelic Lucky Charms?

[Irishman]

Please bench Kano!

[Azviking101]

Hopelessly lost. Never want to see him swing a bat again. 

[tony&rodney]

I'm sad for Miguel Sano.
