    You’re kidding, right? The national baseball media barely knows where the Twins play. If they made a consensus list of the top 100 disappointments of the past decade the Twins wouldn’t make it. At the top of the list would be items like…Yankees fail to win a World Series, followed immediately by the Dodgers only win 2 World Series, and Boston only wins 1.

    The pitch Keaschall hit for the game-winning homer to RIGHT FIELD was absolutely identical in location and velocity to the pitch Lewis K’d on yesterday in the bottom of the 7th with RiSP….fastball at 96, up, and on the outside corner… …to RIGHT FIELD. I’m talking to you, Royce.

    Not ALL of we are so bad.

    If we go on to win the pennant, we’re going to look back at this performance by Tonkin as the turning point.
  5. jkcarew
    It would never be Watkins call.

    I’ve heard there are many ways to score from 3rd with less than two out, without the benefit of a hit. Though, I’ve never actually seen it.

    Rocco must be having a blast! Always loved managing a bullpen like tomorrow’s game doesn’t matter.
  8. jkcarew
    I’m old enough to remember when Lewis would take pitches off the outside corner and hit then hard to right field.

    He’s proving that his arm won’t fall off if he’s asked to throw 90+ pitches. He’s also doing a pretty good job of proving 90+ pitches gets about 10 outs.

    Longer term, I don’t know if it will turn out to be the correct move or not. Depends on what, if anything, is done with the money saved. I’m pretty sure Correa is NOT done being a good player. Simply getting rid of him doesn’t make the club better over the next few years.

    It’s called tanking. Don’t expect Buxton to be running around in center field much for the remainder of the year, regardless of current health status.

    Just good news today… Raya is throwing more pitches in recent starts with the Saints.
  13. jkcarew
    At least the future hope is real. Just hope, but honest. The selling of a ‘contender’ over recent years has been 100% fraudulent.
  14. jkcarew
    And yet, it’s has a VERY strong correlation to teams that do well in the postseason. And that’s the point.

    We’ll look back at this game during the parade, Peter!
  16. jkcarew
    Nice! Is it too late to buy?

    You only play good teams in the playoffs…you have to at least show that you can hold your own. At 27-29, Detroit actually has a MUCH better record than the Twins had in their recent postseasons. Yes, 27-29 actually gives you some hope…as does their top-of-rotation pitching.

    This makes Detroit a classic ALC champion/postseason club. Every. Single. Year.
  19. jkcarew
    1000%

    Just catching up on the game now…greeted by this on the MLB app summary… Brooks Lee singles on a line drive to catcher Dillon Dingler Didn’t have that on my BINGO card.
  21. jkcarew
    Sure you can. You can get one that DOES move the team. You can always do worse, just like you can always do better. Given the Pohlads track history, better seemed assured early in the process, now I’m not so sure.
  22. jkcarew
    It’s 1000% called an error by the hometown scorer if it’s hit by a Twin. One of the subtle “ruining of the game” things that have been going on for the past 20 years or so. Official scoring has been backsliding into a partisan joke for years now.
  23. jkcarew
    Nice visit by Vasquez…”you’re ahead 0-2…let’s nibble and then throw a fastball down the middle of the plate on 3-2”.
  24. jkcarew
    I think there’s probably no such thing as a bullpen proof lead currently.
  25. jkcarew
    It’s amazing what power does for the old OPS. Doesn’t take long at all for a guy like Wallner to right the ship when he finds his stroke.
