Need to win this series to gain a little ground on KC. I am now officially concerned (bigtime) with Duran. He is starting to connect too many dots that indicate he can't get the job done when called upon. Is it his velocity? Location? Confidence? He just can't come in late in close games and give up runs every time.

What was wrong with the last two games? Last game, he had exactly one bad pitch, the one that hit the batter on the foot with two strikes.

He saw that Duran gave up multiple  hits on the box score but didn’t know that they each went 40 feet because he didn’t watch the game and “a hit is a hit”

These all righty lineups continue to make me laugh. 

Something missing from this game thread... How do you know it is an all righty lineup!?

Too lazy to look it up on my own....

Also, while thread title is right, something is off about the opening picture...

PS... Is Brock really in the eastern time zone?

Ragans is pretty filthy.  Not looking forward to watch the flailing at his changeup with 2 strikes tonight.   SWR needs to be on his game tonight.

Thats not real.  Cant be.  Margot starting makes me ill.  Margot leadoff?

With Royce coming back soon, the Twins have a bit of a roster crunch.  Margot is the most deserving to be DFA'd, so collecting as much information on him to legitimize the move, makes sense to me.

How's MAT fairing this season?

Is Margot playing for his roster spot?

He better be!

PA AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI SB CS BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS OPS+ TB GDP HBP SH SF
107 98 9 19 2 0 1 9 3 0 8 21 .194 .252 .245 .497 45 24 3 0 0 1

Add in -2 DRS, -2.5 UZR and -0.7 bWAR

He's closing in on Rusty Kuntz territory for terrible trade acquisitions. (Granted the Doncon part appears to be working out so far.)

Surprising stat--the Twins have the 9th best OPS vs. left handed pitching while their OPS vs. right handed pitching is 20th. 

The Twins have a .684 OPS vs. right handers and .745 OPS vs lefties. 

 

How dare you harsh my narrative!

Margot leading-off really grinds me the wrong way. That's not the way we want to start the game or batter we want the most AB. Especially when we're playing a team ahead of us.

You're questioning a manager of the year award winner?

That game was a perfect example of NYM "baseball".  Clowncar peddle to the metal straight into a tire fire.

Megill pitched his butt off. So did Glasnow. But the ending was what I expected.
