what a quote from Provus "I don't blame Rocco for trying the bunt, Margot hasn't been making great contact so far" Maybe, and hear me out here, DON'T PICH HIT WITH THE GUY THEN

If they're going to pull Julien every time a lefty steps on the mound, why didn't they trade him instead of Polanco? After his great rookie season, Julien almost certainly could have headlined a trade

Julien has been allowed to face one lefty this year, and he got a hit.

Bieber, Allen, Williams, Bibee and McKenzie were all Cleveland draft picks and will be their rotation when healthy.  They are pretty good about trading away their pitchers though.

Not when Derek Falvey was there. The Twins are doing now pretty much what Falvey's crew was doing in Cleveland a decade ago. 

And Bieber was merely drafted by Cleveland when Falvey was there. He came to MN four months later.

Cleveland never produced a pitching pipeline. They traded for just about every one of their pitchers. Like the Twins have done.

These are guys that have started for Cleveland and were drafted just since 2019 - Bieber,Allen,Bibee,McKenzie,Civale,Williams,Plesac,Morgan,Plutko, I would say Bauer is like Ryan, and they got Clevinger from the Angles as a minor league guy.

The play of this team is very similar to the first half last year where the seem to be beatable by every team. Looks like Rocco's guys are behind most other teams right now. Hoping they start getting the offseason rust off soon and can get to some starters. 

P.S I am a long time thread and Twins Daily lurker. Never been much of a poster but figured it was time to be more than a passive scroller on here.

Yeah, Cleveland is developing their own pitchers since Falvey left. When he was there, Cleveland was doing what the Twins are now doing.

Jeffers gets some leeway in my opinion. I know he's a professional. But that still has to weigh heavy on him. 

Fair point and my bad for not remembering it.

It's early, they could turn it around, however the FO did nothing to improve last year's team. The manager keeps making the same head scratching decisions that fail nearly every time and there is zero life. 

I am  half kidding when I post the crap I do... however, this team is currently lost while being led by a moron.

Isn't that is what Spring Training is for?  If I remember right our "core" players didn't really play together (maybe one or two games)

So you are saying Ober is our Danny Salazar?

I'm sure Margot bunted on his own.....still don't think it was enough to be overturned   Does the ball still have to be in the back of the glove to indicate it's caught?  I still think it was a dumb move pitch hitting in the 4th inning.  

We are hitting in some bad luck right now too.  Castro and Jeffers both smoked balls right at the outfielders.  

I didn't think Paddock was bad.  Some bad luck too.  Two squibbers back to him went for hits.  

Watching Hoskins swing the bat and make scoops at first, knowing we could have had him instead of Santana is painful.
