  1. Ryan LaMarre better not sniff the field unless the Twins have a double-digit lead. If he is in there when it's close, Baldelli is punting. If he is in there when they are down big, the team didn't show up and doesn't care.
  2. Sorry, the bag of rose-colored glasses being passed around ran out when it got to me. I smell 3-0 or 3-1 exit in the divisional series.
  3. There aren't enough games - let alone likely situations - to decide if Hildenberger is going to be a good option in a playoff game. Rogers, Romo, Dyson, Duffey, May and Littell all have to be ahead of him. I'd also argue that Thorpe and Smeltzer's leftiness puts them well ahead of him as well. I agree with both posters above. He shouldn't be in consideration for a 2019 postseason bullpen spot. We should let it play out .... in 2020. Hopefully, he has at least one option left. I hope he proves me wrong, but I'm betting against him until I lose a few times.
  4. He isn't a puppy learning where to pee. He's a 30 yo man who should feel some accountability to his profession, especially at the rate he is compensated. Any opinion suggesting that accountability - even harshly suggesting it - is welcome. A lot of fans have invested extra time and money into this exciting season, so there should be complete understanding when someone doesn't take the "aww, he's just a man like you or me, nobody's perfect, give him another chance" path. I would honestly like to see owner collusion at some point with one of these guys and have them all agree that a sacrificial player just won't be signed. I know it would be a MLBPA grievance nightmare, but another message needs to be sent.
  5. To be (Sano) or not to be (Lamarre), that is the question
  6. I don't think Balazovic or Ober or anyone who wasn't on the team at the beginning of the month is eligible for the post season. They'll have to stay in their cells.
  7. Feels like Eddie's throw to nail Devers is probably the 2019 pinnacle now. As much as I'd like to stay positive like the poster above mentioning opportunity presenting itself, this is just a big black cloud rolling in. Goddamnit.
  8. Eddie, La Tortuga and Perez all delivering. It's a blast back to May. Reignite! Go Twins!
  9. Are they human skulls? Are they specific human skulls? Just trying to keep the lid on this can of worms.
  10. Good day for Lopez for sure. He definitely flashes talent several times a year. It's a rollercoaster though. If Cease and Kopech end up being what the Sox hope they are, then Lopez slides to #4 and our archenemies look pretty scary. That's a lot of 'if's' though.
  11. At least Plesac got rammed today and the Indians will be dropping another game to the Sox.
  12. Hildenberger shouldn't be anywhere near a 2019 playoff roster. Give him some very low leverage outings to see if he has adjusted his frisbees to a league that has him figured out, but that's about it.
  13. I think it's possible, but Max would have to take another leap in a few areas. Yelich hitting 'em where they ain't is a great point. Kepler has done this in flashes. See his go ahead two-run single on Labor Day and his walk-off single against Liam Hendriks on July 21. The base-stealing is going to be a tough area, because the team approach may not lend itself to that development. Kepler should continue to improve, but some of Yelich's numbers may be a tall order. However, his defensive superiority could get him somewhat close.
  14. Maybe he will be of use in the Nats series. They haven't seen him live. They also need a pitcher to serve up a "we still love you" pitch to Dozier at some point in the series
  15. What's the over/under on quality starts from Twins starters the rest of the season? 2.5?
  16. Just started listening ... Looks like I'll have to keep drinking
  17. Stu was already stretching reality with the zombie uprisings. That would have been too fantastic.
  18. Not to mention winning 9 in a row.
  19. Walking Matt Skole With An Eight Run Lead by Sean Lennon
  20. Oh**** came in and did his business.
  21. Twins dugout looking at scoreboard and saying, "Yeah, pretty much what we thought."
  22. OK, Jose, nothing but strikes!
  23. Remember when the Twins had Jim Hoey?
