  1. Don’t worry. That thunder you hear in the distance is just Keirsey getting ready to lead off in the bottom of the inning.
  2. Good for him! Earned it. Plugging away for a while now….seldom spectacular, but slowly getting better. We’ll see how it goes for him.
  3. Hey. We could see Alcala tonight. ERA was 8.88 when we unloaded him. 6.05 now.
  4. Back in January, Rocco had a feeling. Savant-like, he is.
  5. He barely made contact with the padded wall…but, when the Twins e-mailed the MRI results to the Yankees…they said sit him.
  6. Solution… climb down off the high wire, and SELL, SELL, SELL. There’s a simple and accurate phrase for making small sells and small acquisitions…or balancing on the high wire…or straddling the fence. It’s called…”doing nothing”. Again.
  7. That’s 3 consecutive series out of the break where we weren’t swept. SO close, you can taste it. Let’s trade a couple of rookie league prospects for an average left-handed reliever, and make that run!
  8. Ryan’s probably my favorite player on the club. Having said that, you HAVE to start turning this roster over. You have to. And…on a relative basis, the Twins have more near emerging pitching than hitting. If you trade Ryan you need to get a hitting stud that is ready or very close to it as the center piece.
  9. An organization willing to spend would have one installed underneath the batters background at this point you would think. If he develops claustrophobia, he’d have to retire.
  10. “Sore”…and apparently don’t want to play him until MRI results are in.
  11. Question: are we required to be happy for Irvin seeing as though he’s ‘one of us’ and all. I’m sure he spent plenty of time dreaming about a day like this at Target Field.
  12. I don’t want to ‘like’ this. But, it sure seems to be the case.
  13. What high leverage opportunity? Rocco a step ahead of us once again.
  14. Their most dangerous hitter has done nothing the entire series, and they’re still going to take it.
  15. Safe from being traded from the Twins to a good team and a chance to play in the playoffs. What a relief they must be feeling.
  16. You must love this front office, then. Play for those 75-85 win seasons, so that you never have a 60 win season…at the price of never even sniffing great. Look at the Tigers in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021…look at them the last two years. Look at the Astros in the early teens before they won their multiple World Series. You can start over with youth…you can be average(ish) forever…or you can spend yourself into contention.
  17. You find out if they’re going to be good major Leaguers by playing them in AAA? So you can play average veterans that have proven they aren’t and never will be needle movers in the bigs?
