Is that okay with you?

It worked!  For once, it worked! 😂🤣😂

Hmm... maybe I'll shift over to the vikes game, and see if the mojo holds...

So a trivia question....without Googling....can you name the HOF players who were on both the Twins and Angels teams during their careers....

Easier than you think...

Gasper is the reason teams run on the Twins. He just simply is not a MLB catcher. 

Gasper hasn't caught enough games for that to be the reason teams run on the Twins. But I agree with the last part

Sitting here in person watching the Angels knowing that they can steal bases on him and then he drops the poo up...uufffdah

Ok, not sure who is watching Twins, but has anyone else noticed that Brooks Lee does not know where to go on cutoffs? Twice tonight but many times already in the last month plus.

I am not suggesting there was a play, just basic positioning. We took all of that for granted with Correa.

I agree. And yet we constantly hear about how he's a heads up player because his dad is a coach.

My take on the pitchers is one of empathy. Pitching in front of a very poor defense is extremely challenging. It just isn't possible to have every batter strike out or hit pop ups. Players need to make plays and they generally do not, which makes the pitcher look poor. In turn, the pitchers are then stressed to make perfect pitches. 

I can make some judgments on the pitchers when the Twins play some major league defenders.
