Twins (Ryan) vs Rockies (Marquez): 7/20/25, 2:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

How much nothing do you predict the front office does at the deadline?

[Parfigliano]

Any body notice  how Brent Rooker  hitting but he wasn't a call up for T C

[Vanimal46]

It’s a shame we have to use Joe Ryan today to salvage a series sweep instead of saving him for the Dodgers. 

[thelanges5]

Buck getting a day off today. If I were Joe, I think I’d rather pitch against the Dodgers than take on Coors Field. 

[karcherd]

Nothing says 1927 Yankees Murderer's Row like having Clemens and France batting 4th and 5th, then having Vasqy anchoring the lineup at number 9.   If this is the best lineup they can put out there, someone needs to be fired.

They put out the best lineup yesterday. Actually things started off well..

Rocco and his usual getaway day giveaway.  Sigh.

If I were Joe, I'd rather pitch for an organization that cares, as opposed one that doesn't, like us.

Mickey Gasper's St. Paul Saints roster spot now says "taxi squad". Must be for the Twins. Injury or is a trade happening?

You're digging deep into research! Intrigued as well. Keaschall with a hit and a SB today.

I am not sure if his getaway day lineup is any different than any other day.  None of his lineups ever make sense.

Gasper should never see Target Field again unless it is with a visiting team.  He brings nothing to help the team.

Ryan should have started Friday and gotten a start in both series.

That has not been legal in Minnesota since Jack Morris was here in '91.

Clemens has been getting hits.   Let's add Wallner...who is pitiful..Lewis also..it is not just those 3..

But they need him fresh for October when he goes fishing.

He stated that he is open to being moved...

We are going to be a winning team, not just for a game or two if Wallner and Lewis get going.  Clemens at his best is a bench player who will have his moments and contribute to a few wins over the course of a season.  He was awful in June and if he is in the lineup it should be in the bottom third of the lineup.

[Mike Sixel]

France still on the roster. Sigh.

And batting fifth.

He has no options regarding being "open"...so reading between the lines,.he means:

 

I’m open to whatever. I'm just here to grow my mustache, give up the occasional bomb, and try not to get yanked before the 6th inning.

Depends on if he likes W’s on his stats line. I’d gladly take Coors Field. But I would rather have both Bader and Buxton in the OF when I do.

[Patzky]

Guess it's time to shut up or shut up

[Patzky]

Speedy Trevor .. bases loaded bugaboo and it's Ty time

[Sjoski]

I call this an 80 for 60 line up.

Thats when:

80% of this line up would bat ninth for 60%  of the other team in MLB.

*EDIT: 80-for-60-for-40 

40% belong in AAA.

**EDIT#2

First two innings prove my point.

 

[Patzky]

Trevor has one speed

[mrtwinsfan]

GREAT TO SEE CASTRO TAKING Roccos advice about swinging early and -AGAIN- after a walk 

[Patzky]

Wallner  :( 

 

You gotta go bro

[Mike Sixel]

I just don't understand how France is on this roster.
