Are Winder, Ober and Dobnak returning this month?

Will that really matter?

Dylan Cease is pitching well.

[mnfireman]

After that 5 game stretch where he went 13-22 (.591) to raise his average to .337, Arraez is 15-70 (.214), dropping his average to .318. He, however, is not the only batter struggling.

Who you got? I will say Miranda

[Azviking101]

Steer has contributed more to the reds season in 1 game than Mahle has to the twins

twins only team to add at the deadline within the division and they won’t make the playoffs. 
 

At this point I hope they don’t. Time to move on from Falvey and Rocco.

Either of those will be fine.

I'll take Gordo.

[PDX Twin]

I'm cheering for all sub-.500 teams in the division, but I doubt that will happen because the top three teams play each other too often.

[Kummel]

 A few games back, I thought, maybe - just maybe - the Twins are getting hot.  But the air appeared to go out of the balloon quickly, when Correa hit into the double play in the 9th inning in what became a loss to the Red Sox.  

And now here we are...

All true, but..... do you think the Twins would play Steer instead of Miranda, Arraez, or Urshela? I don't. Would you? And Badoo looked good for a short while, too...... one game does not make Steer a keeper, by any means. I still don't like Mahle, though.

That's the 0.08 WPA for which we are paying $35m. <Sigh>

[h2oface]

Still minimum batters after 5. Only 50 pitches.

[h2oface]

so........ win 4, lose 6, win 5, lose ?..............

[Irishman]

Twins does not deserve to play in the playoff.  They are terrible,   Baldelli and FO need to let go!

[h2oface]

NO FAIR! They pulled Kepler!

The $35 million dollar man needs some rest...... take it easy Carlos. Tell us what to do to get you help........

How many huge mistakes before something is done with the FO.   Many of would have lost our jobs long ago with this many fatal errors.  They knew Mahle’s injuries, right?
