  1. I'd only put him into spots similar to where he failed for now. However, don't wait until the 11th hour to warm up a replacement and create an unnecessary situation. IL is also fine with me. Moran or Cotton need longer looks. I'd rather see failure from younger, controlled arms than an older, declining vet in a contract year.
  2. Gray is the guy. Smeltzer would be 1b, if Baldelli and Duffey wouldn't have bent him over against the Royals.
  3. That 20-win May is starting to look like a pipe dream. A 12-win June is probably more likely.
  4. This is true. However, if you plan to ride the LRT from MOA to Target Field, you will be exposed to "urban culture". Some people aren't comfortable with it, and they often mistakenly associate this with crime.
  5. Does anyone who watched any of the game yesterday (5/25 vs Detroit) think there were really 20,375 people there?
  6. That's an incomplete and wishful thinking list. Karbo's response is more in line with what the real reasons are. Even if you aren't older and handicapped trying to navigate downtown, you still may have to deal with the complete clusterf*** that is the LRT after night games. The crowds on the trains aren't the problem either. It's the complete mismanagement of the lines and the out-of-service cars that happens when the games let out.
  7. Balazovic is starting look like he may go the way of the Adam Johnsons and JD Durbins of the world.
  8. Luis Arraez is currently in the top 10 in OPS in the AL with 1 HR. That's how good he is at getting on base.
  9. It looks like Brandon Birdsell may have done well for himself not signing with the Twins as an 11th rounder last year. He's currently #93 in MLB top 100. I wonder if he will be on the radar for the Twins in the supplemental round 2 or round 3. He's had a really good 2022 college season.
  10. The Twins need to inject more catching depth. Susac at 8 wouldn't be a reach.
  11. This. The FO sometimes just seems paralyzed by risk adversity. Things like signing Correa and letting Ryan have Opening Day made me think that was going away. They drafted this guy #1 overall with their first pick as an FO. Character and Athleticism were the key attributes used to sell him as "the guy". They were obviously right on the character so far, as Lewis showed by handling the dead season and devastating injury in back to back years. He basically picked up right where he left off in the 2019 AFL. So now on to athleticism, Lewis isn't at shortstop because that's the only position he can play. He's there because he's better at it than everyone else. He's probably better at all the other positions (save pitcher and catcher) than everyone else too. He doesn't need to dumb it down.
  12. Was he John Coffey? That's who Alex needs right now.
  13. Wow, lots of good pitching performances. I feel like Chi Chi is going to get his day again, but I have zero expectations. CES has been impressive, but 74 hits is his career MiLB total. He has 40 in 2022 (still impressive in early/mid-May).
  14. I saw four guys in the picture and only three pitchers in the box score .... Oh, the guy who caught all those pitches, dumbass
  15. I suppose Bundy doesn't matter for a day considering he pitched yesterday, but will the Twins be able to bring up a guy to fill in for Arraez? Is this how Royce Lewis makes his debut? I like how they updated the protocol for returning: two negative PCR tests, at least 24 hours without a fever, and approval from a team doctor and a MLB/MLBPA joint committee of two other physicians. That's better than a blanket number of days for everyone.
  16. Yeah, I'd also go with the kindergartener kicking the crap out of the 2nd graders, instead of the 2nd grader kicking the crap out of the kindergarteners.
  17. How did the bullpen go five scoreless innings and hold Tampa to one run?
