Twins Trade Jorge Lopez to Marlins for Dylan Floro
Dave Borton replied to Ted Schwerzler 's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Gladden is the happiest of all. Just one Lopez to remember. -
Ah Joe....
-
Have other teams got his number now? Just got home and didn't hear/see HRs.
-
K-city once again. Good grief.
-
He deserves a Greyhound ticket (strictly as baggage) but given the circumstances, I will pick up the tab for 1st class air.
-
Appreciate everyone here. Everyone has something to say, lots is very instructive, and there is very little rudeness. Thanks. Let's play 2! db
-
Gallo 1 for 18 last bats; 10Ks. Pathetic.
-
Radio announcers: Provus Hughes Kasper/Jackson, WSox (good play by play and Jackson educates) Korach, A's Wagner, Jays Dickerson, Tigers Hamilton, Cleve (quirky but enjoyable) Brantley, Reds/color (gives ball insights) Some of my favorites
-
Provus has grown into his role. He has toned down the overwhelming stats he used about 3 yrs ago. Balanced, even, mildly critical even though Pohlad signs his check, paints the visual, gives inning and score frequently. I have come to enjoy him.
-
Gladden is terrible. Play occurs and he waits until conclusion to describe what happened. "Dear Dan, we have no eyes on the game. Might you share?"
-
wasn't the 1st time this year. He is elsewhere.
-
Couldn't agree more. Farmer = grit, what I love in a ballplayer.

I respectfully disagree. Maybe Baldelli is playing chess. I will play checkers and have the manager say, "Let's see -- I have a young developing player, Wallner. He is 2-2 today. It's important to show the young man that I have confidence in him. Not going to have a .215 catcher hit for him." This kind of demonstration of belief in a person is part of the game. It's a long view in developing a ballclub. Pulling Wallner was a resounding, "I don't trust you." Very wrong message, IMHO.

Josh Donaldson has a torn right calf and could miss the rest of the season. He would finish his Yankees career having hit just .207/.293/.385 while missing 159 of a possible 324 games and getting paid $51.5 million. Donaldson will be a 38-year-old free agent this offseason. Thank you Cash($)man.

$5.5MM on the Farm and $1.8MM on Castro. Money well spent.
-
Had to have been. I am sure no one is talking to him by this time.
-
Niagara Falls at the time, watching Bobo Brazil give Killer Kowalski the coco-butt.
-
Watkins is just shuffling to 3B. Correa brought him a glove.
-
Thank you. 2-2 today.
-
If Gallo steals home, all is forgiven.
-
Sox radio booth was hoping for Anderson's 1st homer in over a year. Had to settle for a double.
-
But she is ready, on time, for the first time ever.
-
Shoot, I took off the headphones, in disgust as well as helping prep for company at 5p. Will have to look at box score and catch up.

The OP is one step ahead of Sports Illustrated, posing the same questions. Spot reliever, bumping Maeda, trade an arm for a <s>leg</s> bat. https://www.si.com/fannation/bringmethesports/twins/how-does-dallas-keuchel-impact-the-twins-plans-at-the-trade-deadline

Radio fans, Pat Hughes, Cub announcer for 27 years, given Ford Frick award at Cooperstown yesterday. https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/cubs/ct-pat-hughes-chicago-cubs-frick-award-20230723-fo2dwqoltzcz3fhdt2gndbgydu-story.html
