  1. Partially fair and I get the all-out hustle thing. I'll meet you half way, but someone (besides an irascible fan with an itch like me) could kind of point out to him that diving for balls in the outfield usually results in a bad outcome if you're not one of those elite fielders....besides, with the way the Twins have been dropping like flies lately, wouldn't it be dandy if he broke his wrist diving for a ball?
  2. That hurt more than him because it was Vasquez with the game on the line.....
  3. That's like the fourth time I've seen Wallner dive for a ball this year where he had no chance and where he or another outfielder had to go and pick up the ball at the warning track. The angle he took was terrible. That should have been a single. I'd rather see him stop the balls from going all the way to the wall than watch a steady stream of runners round the bases....
  4. It's clear that the Twins have too much starting pitching and we should trade some away for getting a middle of the order hitter....................................
  5. Nice wrap up! TQ! I guess when Springer is up in clutch situations, we shouldn't throw anything near the strike zone. Buxton taking walks...amazing! Wallner is a terrible outfielder it seems, but his bat strikes fear...
  6. Random unorganized thoughts. Every once in awhile, Vasquez does that. It's very hard to explain, but we'll certainly take it. George Springer is Ty Cobb when he plays against the Twins. He'd be the triple crown winner if he faced the Twins every day. I'm never very worried when Ryan is on the hill. He had an off day but still perservered. When Buxton takes walks, he becomes a far more dangerous player. The only worry I have about Correa is that he might get injured...Buxton as well... Wallner is a bad fielder...
  7. Sure, but you can't a break at the water tent and chat with the gals about mile 25 when you're only at mile 11... 😉
  8. Well, we'll never know if he keeps getting yanked it key spots like today. To me, that was a bush league move by Baldelli. You don't think Little feared Wallner? In a sense, we wasted both Jeffers and Wallner. Granted that Jeffers got screwed by Baker for strike 3 which absolutely affected the outcome. (I suppose he wanted to get to his favorite Minneapolis bar before it got too late, and by the way, I would expect Baldelli to get tossed there defending his player.) Nevertheless, it had to be disheartening for Wallner to get pulled, especially with Vasquez's bat on the horizon.... PS-Jordan Baker is an argument by himself for the robot umps.
  9. Can I ask an outta the blue question? Is Gasper so poor defensively behind the plate that it's better to ride with Vasquez? I'm big on defense, but Gasper with some time must be an upgrade as a hitter...
  10. I agree. Even if one concedes he was late, he did not roll his hands over like in days of yore, which would have resulted in foul balls or simply swinging misses...
  11. I really hope DeBarge's bat plays well enough to hit .250 in bigs. He is one of those players who can create havoc for the other team simply by coaxing a walk.
  12. I noticed on MLB.com that he couldn't throw his curve ball anywhere even close to the strike zone, and when his fastball was +96 it wasn't near the strike zone either, but when he dialed it back, he could throw strikes with the fastball. I suppose the hitters are completely ignoring the off speed stuff and sitting fastball when it's in the zone.
  13. Patience is a two-way street...last year, we saw in which direction are patience led...
  14. BTW, can DeBarge bunt? If he can, and he makes the jump to light speed, he'll be an absolute nightmare to mlb pitchers, ala Mickey Rivers or Ichiro...
  15. They didn't buy their sunglasses at Walmart....they could've saved some money.
  16. Ryan because of his ability to win important games, and Duran because he is nasty. No one else. Maybe neither of these even deserve it, but they have to take someone, and no offensive player is in the running IMHO.
  17. We could say that despite an early offensive, France 🇫🇷 defeated India 🇮🇳....
