  1. That’s two AB in a row where Buxton’s been healthy!! My prediction: Buxton stays healthy as long as Lynn is pitching. Maybe longer.
  2. It seems unfathomable that it could ever get to the point where it would make sense for the Twins to trade pitching for hitting. But we might be there…or headed in that direction. My how the tables have turned. Still, you’re not trading Ryan anytime soon.
  3. Fwiw…I actually think they played better in the split against Seattle, than they did in the sweep against Oakland. Oakland so bad, it didn’t matter.
  4. But, when you’re positioned for an epic run for an historic ALC title…
  5. Cano, Povich, plus two additional lottery ticket arms. Sigh
  6. I think the best solution is to play him at DH. If you’re going to take him out up 2 in the top of the seventh, why not up 3-4 in the top of the 6th inning?? Too many opportunities for the opponent to score legitimate runs.
  7. The score was just 3-3. What if the game had remained 3-3 through 9…do we wish we had not removed Julien yet? Or are we still loving Farmer at 2nd and MAT in the two hole?
  8. And if the game remains 3-3…what then?
  9. Umm…three innings for the opponents to make you wish he was still in the game.
  10. Maybe…that would be the rational reason.
  11. You don’t take him out because the opponent still has 3 innings of offensive opportunity. Dumb. Totally different with one inning to play.
  12. It was another one of Jax’s unhittable sweepers. Center cut.
  13. How ‘bout where you gotta score to win?
  14. Apparently Rocco thinks Julien is really a DH. As is Buxton, as is Wallner, etc
  15. I would like these, but I don’t…want to.
  16. Julio with a pretty significant sophomore slump. Not quite Miranda-like…but bad.
  17. The training staff mixed up Wallner’s and Kirilloff’s contact lenses.
  18. Thomas…call me crazy, but the ridiculous splits are NOT good. In 75% of situations he has very little value (negative considering defense?) Tough to justify over 162 games with the way 26-man rosters work these days. In certain playoff series, certainly would be nice to have, though…platooning/replacing Gallo probably, or Kepler…not Kirilloff. I’d rather he be a cheap rental, actually. Hernandez makes the most sense to me. But, I’m not liking the idea of any buy deals that cost anything more than lottery tickets this year. On the other hand, there are some sell candidates where I would happily take a lottery ticket or two in return.

  20. Officially best start since the break…who wouldda thunk it after the first.
  21. Are the Saints home next week? I’ve got some business in St. Paul next week, and I’d love to see Julien hit in person.
