Baez has way more range. He is a guy who would make Rocco lose the rest of his hair. He does take days off. Correas best days are behind him

I'd argue the other way around and say Baez's best days are behind him.

Solano can do all the celebrating he wants as long as he keeps hitting. We can start complaining about his excessive celebration when everyone starts hitting like him.

My issue isn’t the celebration, and it’s not even excessive in my opinion. It’s that we have been reduced to celebrating things that we should expect to be routine.

This stuff is the best when we have chances to discuss, not argue, face to face. Say over an IPA?

I'm tired of the Twins scoring and then immediately the other teams responds....

 

Thankfully, it doesn’t happen very often.

I didn't see the praise in the article. Nor was any needed.

Reusse from the article, "I've liked the new, feisty Rocco of 2023 getting tossed from a game once in a while and making more bold moves, even when mysterious. Baldelli is a better manager now than when he was the Manager of the Year."

Julien's rep was good hitter, shaky fielder. He looks shaky at both.

He has 2 hits today and a .770 OPS on the season as a rookie. He does strike out a lot, but I don't see how he isn't a good hitter.

Granted, he probably shouldn't be batting leadoff this early in his career, but that's on the Twins, not Julien.

Why do Twins strikeout a lot against most any pitcher?  Hitting coach should wake up and fix it.

At least he didn’t GIDP, but still needed to K . 
 

This team’s dead in the water I’m afraid…

Can’t GIDP if no one is on base

Especially like the last two sentences!

2-4 today with a double. Going to K and walk,, because he likes going deep in counts looking for something he can drive.

I put the radio on in the background and break out the Kindle.

Don't have cable so there isn't that temptation.

When the Twins take a s*, I listen to see how my favorites are doing (Farmer/Lewis) and listen to opposing radio booth (when they are decent) to learn the other team.

Same here and I finished the book, so back and sadly not much has changed.
