Why do they keep thinking Buxton is some vocal Leader, ,  Byron is a Follow me Fellas , but not vocal

bad as Politicians---  all Liars 

You know the old saying...the only time a politician is telling the truth, is when he calls another politician a liar. 

[William K Johnson]

I see Julian's defense did not get much better at St. Paul

[mrtwinsfan]

I really thought either Wallner or Larnach  would of maybe went to Houston also

[S Bart]

Remember the old saying that you can't put lipstick on a pig...bring the Saints mascot pig over and try to put lipstick on him.. or her...Falvey can hold the 🐖 down and Rocco can apply the 💄

He'll get his 3 chances to show it tonight. 

[S Bart]

One item that people have not noted...Veterans such as Bader, Paddack. France did give some experience...even Correa a bit...

I thought players needed time to adjust to new teams? That's what I was told a few pages back....

Not all adjustments are equal.

[Randy Griffith]

4 Ks in two innings projects to 18 strikeouts tonight.  What is the team record for strikeouts in a nine-inning game?

[Mike Sixel]

Could be a really fast game! 

[terrydactyls]

I remember years ago laughing when the vendors would shout out "Can't tell the players without a program!" because I knew all the players and their numbers.  Tonight (or this entire weekend), that may be a very accurate thing to say,

[strumdatjag]

No Pre-game on Directv tonight.   Are the Twins squelching a half hour of discussion in their moves this week?

oops. I was wrong.  No pregame for road games.   I never watch the pregame anyways - But was eager to see one tonight.

Minnesota Twins recalled RHP Pierson Ohl from St. Paul Saints.

Had he been down long enough? Or does the list of exceptions include trades as well as injuries?

[CRF]

Ok...fair warning...get ready. This is a Defcon level 1  B.S. alert. Everyone go get their hip waders on. It's gonna get pretty damn deep next inning.

Includes trades, which I was totally wrong about earlier.

I was not a fan of the Outman acquisition.  But if he has any value, it’s as short-term Buxton insurance in center.  I read that he’s reporting to AAA.  If they’re not going to use him now, then what was the point of picking him up? 

Well its Austin Martin in CF.  Buck hurt, Bader traded, 11 guys traded, and they still won't give Keirsey a start.  If there is one Twin who deserved a fresh start its that kid.  He has been criminally mishandled.

[Dave Borton]

Baldelli's interview was on 'CCO. "Exciting ...time." Whole interview was company line. Having heard Falvey, could hear the rehearsal.

In his defense, he spent the day at the hotel saying goodbye and thanking traded players; reassuring remaining staff.

If I was the manager ( whats his name today ) , I would sit down with Ryan and explain that this is a lost season for the team ...

But it's not a lost season for you Joe Ryan if you continue to focus and pitch your game and work towards a Cy young award  ...

You need to find ways to motivate the players that remain after the deadline  ...

The new players are just happy to be here and playing ...

B.S. shoveler alerrt. Falvey to spread manure in 3rd inning.

They don't have a show for road games.

[SS MagicMark]

That would've been a hit in the Dome. 

[S Bart]

I wasn't kidding when I said I'd not pitch if I was Ryan. He's risking over one hundred million for these owners.....

Expected team to be un-focused and struggling and it already started. Juliene is ab absolute butcher in the field.  Eddie is so poopy at 2nd. 

This team is going to finish with 90 losses. 

[Bracky]

It’s a bold move to bring Falvey on the first broadcast after this week. Spreading some BS.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Falvey is a walking word salad. And he's a corporate yes man. I don't believe anything he says.
