One thing I like about this year compared to last year. ..The manager seems to trust the starters more and permits them to remain in the game..up to and over 100 pitches

That's the balance of analytics I believe we all wanted to see.  We all know what the numbers say.  They should be a tool, not a manual.

I want this team to be the best version they can be for the season not just for one series.

Also, please don't tell me how to react to a game, you don't know me well enough for that.

I don't want to know you well enough for that. Have a good rest of the day/evening/life/etc. Best of luck. Hope you start to feel better real soon.

I'm out of here , all this crap on freedom of speech and were missing the message here ...

THE TWINS ARE WINNING IN NEW YORK AND THE BOOBIRDS ARE OUT ...

YOU HAVE TO BE HALF CRAZY TO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING OTHER THAN THIS GAME ...

a series win is possible and the boobirds will be very load at the end of the game if twins win ...

there not fans -   ANIMALS

With the probable Twins win, taking the series in the Bronx, this will be a wonderful Independence Day Weekend.

55 years ago today, my friends and I went out for a drive in the country and I woke up two weeks later with impaired Left eye, and scars.

This will give me a July 5th to remember well!😃

I've been reading The Magical Game by Addy Baird, and she makes an excellent point that I think applies a lot to our Twins:

"The front office has kind of said, 'We're pretty happy when the team contends but doesn't win, because winning means everybody's salaries go up. As long as we're contending, the fans won't go away. We'll pack the stadium. But if we win, it's just an extra expense."

Perhaps the "pack the stadium" bit is a stretch, but I wouldn't argue about cheapness being a factor...

could also be some lack of faith in this BP, but it's for sure a BIG change from Rocco.

Maybe...but it also provides confidence to the starter

Buxton to injured list, Fedko down, Roden and Jeffers up? That's what I'd do. 

Just wondering...has Roden played this year or has it all been rehab

He's been playing with the Saints since the middle of June, I believe. He's been raking like he did at the beginning of the season.

Maybe get something out of the trade for the all-star Varland

Hopefully they also get of the thought that they need a pinch runner and defensive replacement role and utilize every player on the roster.

I'd consider myself as much a fan as anyone here...anyone...including you. Relax...have another beer...and enjoy the game...there's ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with doing it. 

Apologies. Not judging degrees of fandom. I don’t think I did any ratings. Just trying to express my cringe trigger when I see Twinkies and Twinks. I get it mostly from Yankee fan friends in a bullying manner. That’s on them. Great song provided by The Baseball Project…… who have about 5 LPs of original baseball songs since the early aughts.

As slow of runners some Twins are, and nail biting holes in the defense at times, hell has not frozen over yet.
