you go ahead and  believe that,   so Rocco told Buck to sit today ,   this is Byrons decision to not start and Byrons only ,   actual writing - yes thats Rocco ,  Buck playing or not if healthy is Byrons call !!!!

Do you have any verifiable proof that he's specifically choosing not to play?  I rather doubt it.  Sounds more like you're just looking for something to rant and rave about and this just fell into your lap.

I happen to agree fully with mnfireman.

I really don’t think 30-25 is a thing. 

He’d be the first Twin to get to 30 hr and 25 steals.

He's already the first Twin to get to 30 hr and 24 steals.  If our numbering system were base-12 like the ancient Sumerians and Babylonians, maybe these achievements would be more satisfying.   😄

I'm hoping Rocco Baldelli choose to pursue other managerial opportunity's, at least that is my hope.

Maybe he’ll pinch run so he can get that 25th steal?

Thought the same. LH pitcher, not so easy to run on.

He has a couple of remarkable 2025 stats.  0 GIDP.  0 CS. 

I wouldn't sit him out of a game to protect freakshow stats, but given that he's sitting, I'd hate for a brief appearance to mar either of them.

Seems like Buxton should be in the lineup or at least makes an appearance in the game. One can say - nothing to play for/last game, but the Phillies have nothing to play for/last game of season as well and they have their starters in the lineup. I expect four of them to be taken out during the game.

Walk off home run would be great.

I  am going to miss these debates. They take my mind off other debates going on in our country today.

[tony&rodney]

Cory Provus asked Jeremy Zoll why the Twins did not run prior to mid August. Zoll rambled, but did not answer the question.

Makes sense

I hope he gets fired.

Rortvedt is catching for the Dodgers, using finger signals. Not sure; maybe it's Kershaw's preference, possibly pitch com is shot. But 2nd inning?

I am curious...is Rocco's salary published...if so, what is it?

HBP with bases loaded bottom of 9th.

I love how Ryan asked Abel for an autograph during the interview....as well as the tossed seeds by Lopez and Festa

[Irishman]

Hopefully, FO will be replaced and entire coaching staff will be fired when the season ends.   Pohlad needs to sell his team.     That’s my wish for 2026.     Pohlad doesn’t care about winning and losing.   He care about money.    Why should I care?

[Dave Borton]

Kershaw's last regular season game. He can't get the FB up beyond 88-89mph. Lots of revolutions on that shoulder.

[Doctor Gast]

SWR is pitching another quality game. If only we can drive in a run or 2.

My goodness the pitching! And a lead!

[mrtwinsfan]

Go Twins

[RpR]

Jeffers and Martin my , oh, my.

[ziggy]

How long does Lewis think his bat is?

[S Bart]

Some people have slammed Jeffers...Vasquez may be better defensively, but Jeffers is batting 261 (31 points above his career average). I wonder how jeffers would be at 1st base.

[Aggies7]

Lol the Phillies broadcasters are laughing at rocco making a fuss about the automatic strike call

[Aggies7]

Right now, the Mets would be eliminated
