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

Not minimizing your concern. I am 75 and run on 3 cylinders some days. If you are aware of concern, not Alzheimers. That is what doc told me. Second, in reading re: forgetfulness, "where are my glasses," etc -- As we age, our electrical signals don't take the direct route anymore. They bounce all over the place before getting to thought formation. My biggest frustration is forgetting a specific word I am after...now what is the word for_________, or the most descriptive word I am after. Lord, have mercy.

Beautiful tilth in that soil. I have worked like a bugger for past 10 years to improve mine. Prior owner had 70 years of chemicals; every year, rinse, repeat. I sow winter rye for green manure every year, sickle, and turn over in the Spring. Straw mulching around plants. Turned over. Aged horse manure. Still working on it. -
This short period of time is not dissimilar to a spring training for him. Needs time.

Still too early to slide Maeda. Keuchel working 5 inn per start, 3.6BB/9, 1.40wHip.

While I agree for your sentiment for the man, he has no business on the mound. When you can't control a 98mph, someone could be injured for life. 3 hitters beaned in a row clearly indicates he has no idea where the ball is going. He needs to shut himself down.

"Pohlad expressed a sense of urgency that has opened eyes amongst those who follow the Twins closely..." I believe the line was for public consumption only. Your byline includes "If Baldelli is fired..." 'If' is the operative word in the clause. Not going to happen. Loved Cruz as a player. Personality strikes me as a nice man but not sure there is leadership as an attribute. Teammate yes; manager doubtful. Hitting coach, possibly. Mere opinions from the recliner. Heck, my grandson works me over in ball now. Missed throws seem further away than they used to be.

It is clear that something very heavy is weighing on him and he should address it for his family and his sake.
-
Put him in the lineup at DH, bat him 3rd, and pray the wheels on the base recover.
-
I have told you privately but will add it publicly. Superb work on the draft selections, Ted. db

JRyan?

Garlic has an aroma, not a smell (winks).
