    Let's bring up some more to St. Paul and then to Target Field. I say goodbye to guys like Andrew Albers who will likely never pitch for the Twins again.

    I like the Cleveland model. Develop good young pitching and then trade the big buck or soon to be big buck guys for more prospects. It seems to be working for them. Bye Bye, Jose. It's been fun, but....

    People keep saying the season is "over". In all likelihood we will not make the playoffs, but I still find myself thinking of the teams that have been this far out in August who came back and won the pennant. I guess that is why they play the games.

    I look at the baseball season as kind of a 6 month soap opera. We expected better and so far have been disappointed. We are now in crisis. So what will happen? How will the front office respond? What will Rocco do? Will any of our stars reestablish themselves? Will Buxton get his health back? What prospects will impress at the big league level this year? Will our relief pitching recover? I guess we will just have to tune in and see. Should be interesting.

    Too soon to get serious about trades. Nevertheless I think with Berrios you are on the right track. I think we may need to send Sano to the minors or try and trade him if he doesn't improve, which given his, once again oversized self, seems unlikely.

    Derek Falvey got a deserved pass this off season regarding the bullpen, considering how they had done in 2020. It looks like they tried to say some money by not bringing back Wisler,,Clippard, and May. Well, sometimes you get what you pay for. Maybe time by midseason, if the team is not doing better, to bring up some of our young guns and give them mlb experience.

    I hope that Larnach gets to start a game when we face a righty.

    Looking forward to seeing The Dobnak pitch tonight.

    It seems odd that Rogers didn't pitch at all last week.

    Just signed up for MILB TV so I can watch our prospects play. Can get the AA games too. I am in heaven, if only the Twins would pick it up.
  11. Richard Swerdlick
    It's time again for The Dobnak to get another shot as a starter in the rotation. I hope Shoemaker likes St. Paul.
  12. Richard Swerdlick
    Coloume' DFA please
  13. Richard Swerdlick
    It sure makes it easier when your starter can go 7 good innings.
  14. Richard Swerdlick
    In 1st game I credit Dan Gladden with his observations that Moreland seems only to be able to hit pitches that are low and inside. Of course where does Shoemaker throw the 2 gopher balls? Low and inside. Some people never learn.
  15. Richard Swerdlick
    Maybe it's time to visit that old saying, " Youth must be served" and look at some of our prospects?
  16. Richard Swerdlick
    Does anyone know if the Saints games will be on radio or tv ?A few years ago I subscribed to MILB TV as all the AA and AAA games were televised with radio simulcast.
  17. Richard Swerdlick
    Meanwhile, Derek Law, who was fantastic this Spring, sits and waits his turn. I agree that we need to move Colome to a less high leverage role for now.
  18. Richard Swerdlick
    I do not see the Twins paying Berrios what it would take to keep him. I expect him to be traded sometime after this season.
  19. Richard Swerdlick
    I am guessing that because of the number of pitches thrown that Dobnak will be sent down for the next few days to a week and that the Twins will bring up Derek Law.
  20. Richard Swerdlick
    For being the " worst team in the division" Detroit got off to a nice start against Cleveland.
  21. Richard Swerdlick
    Nice
  22. Richard Swerdlick
    I like the idea of platooning players. I am old enough to remember when Gene Mauch would do it and I thought it worked well. Left field looks good in this regard.
  23. Richard Swerdlick
    St. Paul should have a heck of a pitching staff.
  24. Richard Swerdlick
    I grew up remembering the Yankees of the 50's who often did horribly in Spring training competition but blow the league away once the season started.
  25. Richard Swerdlick
    Yup, the Twins are now the developmental team for the Tigers.
