MIL 3, MIN 2: Pushing Against a Stone

Moya sent back to AAA. At what point are they ever going to use young relievers so they can build towards 2019?

All Moya did was shut down the Brewers for 2 innings yesterday. And Belisle still remains because veteran

Trust me, no other club would let Belisle stay that long without producing anything positive.

Tear it down.... Time to have a 1999 Twins type year...

Tear it down.... Time to have a 1999 Twins type year...

Sure. But save a few players who have hearts though.

Trade Lynn, Rodney and Dozier.

Extend or sign Gibson, Escobar and Duke. If Rodney is willing to be a set up guy, sign him for another year as well. Giving Rodney a clean inning of work in the 7th or the 8th would be ideal.

Seems like reality set in for the players on this team.

"we're creating some of our own problems..."

The bad breaks I could handle just fine. The constant "creation of our own problems" is what drives me up a wall.

I think he nailed it. Signing Belisle, Motter, Wilson & Morrison are examples of creating own problems. Unwisely using or overusing bullpen arms is another example of that.

Is anyone else at the point where they wouldn’t mind seeing a bullpen game every 5 days. Would be a good way to introduce Andrew Vasquez, Nick Anderson, and Jake Reed into the league.

Sigh...I didn't watch the last 3 games.  I'm glad I didn't based on the frustration I'm sensing.  I'm sensing that the team is now lifeless in all aspects.  I don't know if they have had a team meeting, but I think one is needed.  They are professionals and they need to give their best effort every time out there.  Being on a MLB field is a privilege.  Respect the game and work your hardest.  That's all I've got.

Lost in the shuffle and season long disappointment was the catch by Broxton. First of all, given the height he reached, one of the best I have ever saw. Secondly, he made one similar the other day. In neither case did he run into the wall and need to be escorted off the field. Yes, Buxton, I am looking at you. Lastly he was so purely estatic without being obnoxious you had to enjoy it. No Joe Cool here. Sadly I sort of expected to be seeing that regularly in MN, not in Rochester NY.

This team will lose 95+ games... might as well let the kids learn at the big level and get a high pick. Worst case is this team figures it out in August and ends up with 70 wins and a mid teen pick. Blow it up and try to get more top end talent.

I get it, some will argue it’s a perpetual cycle of trying to get prospects but let’s be real, this team is two years away at least. So test the young guys to see what you have, trade non core for lottery tickets and best case you see guys step up and show future.... and end up at 15. Worst case, you see who isn’t ready and end up top 5. Either way, you aren’t ready for a run.

Throw that towel baby

The problem with this is that the generation of Buxton, Sano, Rosario, Berrios was supposed to be "The Team". If this fails the Twins are in really big trouble for years

I don't know if they have had a team meeting, but I think one is needed.

They need a team meeting for the team to meet the new manager.

This 25 man roster come August 1st better look a helluva lot different or I'm right there with you.

Whether it does or doesn't I think I'm already there...

This FO is legitimately part of the problem at this point.
