    I hate to sound like Im jumping the gun, but a lot of you guys said pitching would be our downfall. There's nothing wrong with rollin em out there and seeing how they do, but at what point do we say we've seen enough? Keuchel and Kimbrell are still out there.... If this FO lets this season slip away it's on THEM. Not Molitor. Not Terry Ryan. Not us. Not St.Peter. Not the Pohlads. If this season goes to crap its on Falvey, and Levine.

    I hope we do everything to keep all our guys in the Majors. I am rooting for Sano to become what he is supposed to be- a competent major league third baseman and a very Very Dangerous hitter. Marwin Gonzalez does not care where he plays. He is playing for ANOTHER Ring. With the core group we have it will all come together. Adrianza is still around and I am guessing his attitude and professionalism is why he's here through 2 managers now. Dont hate me but Astudillo or Cave are the most likely to be in Rochester once Sano is deemed ready to return. If not, they will drop the rehab assignment tag on him and leave him there. GO TWINS!!

    90 would win the division but if we win the games we should win(unlike 2018) we go 95-67. I have said all along last year was so maddening. Nobody could see Lynn was 30 days behind everyone else? The day they traded Escobar he pitched a Gem in Fenway for the win. Rodney is someone i bet they wish they still had. Some of the trades made sense but come on? Pressley to the Astros??? We all knew how good he is getting. It's a shame Mauer had to retire on that dismal note.

    I think we have a lot of time to sort things out. Of course we want the Sano from the first half of 2017! There's no doubt in my mind he can do it. But will he? If the current administration manages him the correct way we could easily work him into the current playing rotation. Its not written in stone he has to be handed any starting job immediately. I feel like the FO's plan is to integrate him slowly and barring injuries, work him back in at dh, 3b, 1b, and dont forget he can play corner outfield in a pinch. (before you laugh has anyone EVER SEEN Tyler Austin play outfield?)

    I have always been upset that even when we have a good team nobody else in the country ever gives us props...maybe that's changing.... from mlb.com..3. Twins (8-6) You can look at the Twins a certain way and make an easy case that they’re now the AL Central favorite. And it’s not just because the Indians appear to be more vulnerable than they’ve been at any time in this string of three straight division titles. The Twins are off to a good start despite an offense that is in the bottom half in almost every category except one: OPS. Minnesota is ninth with an .814 OPS, which could be an indication that there’s more there after adding Nelson Cruz, Marwin Gonzalez, Jonathan Schoop and Willians Astudillo to an everyday lineup that already had Eddie Rosario, Jorge Polanco and Max Kepler. Jose Berrios and Michael Pineda have been excellent at the front of the rotation, and once Jake Odorizzi gets on track, he will add quality depth. Addison Reed ’s return from the injured list should make the bullpen as good as any in the division. Also interesting is how the AL Central will play out. The Tigers and White Sox could both get better as their youngsters settle in, and the Tribe will start to get its core guys back at some point. But if Twins center fielder Byron Buxton -- who has an .868 OPS with three steals and seven doubles -- finally is the player he has been long projected to be, Minnesota will be in excellent shape. I have been saying we SHOULD be taken seriously for awhile now. What do You think?

    I think we have considered all of these options before we learned about the mysterious heel injury. My answer was the same as it is now. Sano, Cave, and Astudillo all have options(as does Garver I believe). Whoever is swinging a hot bat and helping the team in other ways (i.e. defensively, chemistry wise, clutch performance) stays and whoever is the odd guy(s) out goes to Rochester. This is not a bad situation to have. Depth is a good thing.

    last night and tonight remind me eerily of 2018 UGHHHHH
  11. Channing1964

  13. Channing1964
    jeeze where's our offense? I didnt know the Jays had a rotation like the 71 Orioles!
  14. Channing1964
    sooo ..... are we winning?
  15. Channing1964
    wow i dont even know what to say except WAY TO GO!! if we get a sweep my Met's fan roommate has to wear a different style of my Twins hats for seven straight days! And now my chances of having to wear the Met's hat are ZERO!!
  16. Channing1964
    and if we know Sano like we do, its easy to predict another six weeks off due to a stubbed toe or some legal problem he incurred in South Florida. I'm so glad we aren't saying "just wait till Sano comes back!" anymore.
  17. Channing1964
    id love to hear the catcher and or pitching coach miked up during a game to really see how they work out pitch sequence etc.
  18. Channing1964
    i would really like to know who calls all the pitches. Some teams let the battery do it, and some call them from the dugout via hand signals to the catcher. Nobody has ever said how the Twins are doing it this year. I would suppose it depends on who the catcher and pitcher is.
  19. Channing1964
    Deeeeeeeetroit????
  20. Channing1964
    Rogers is responsible to let Rocco to know when he's needing a break. I can see Moya getting healthy and becoming a valuable second left handed option.
  21. Channing1964
  22. Channing1964
    If he has options (and im sorry i dont know) then for sure he goes to Rochester for 20. By all accounts he's in shape but then he will have to get 20 days worth of ABs against AAA pitching and decisions will come. Or not.
  23. Channing1964
    yeahhahaahaaa 77 days and 60 of them on the I.L. for a hangnail and blurred breaking ball vision.
  24. Channing1964
    Man I am already on every one of their band wagons...I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!
  25. Channing1964
    there is no reason not to keep both. at some point they will be considered in comparison with Cave and Sano. When Miggy 2 comes back somebody is gonna see what it's like in Rochester.
