    Provus said that Rocco told him he is just trying everyone at leadoff to see if someone can run with it.
  2. UpstateNewYorker
    Especially with France on third with no outs.

    Stolen bases in MLB are as high as they have been since 1915. Not controlling the running game is another "in the margins" area the FO is failing at. https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-stolen-bases-highest-in-109-years

    Wow -- can't make this stuff up.
  5. UpstateNewYorker
    Neither

    Grounds crew working on the infield.

    Nothing says shutdown reliever like a four-pitch walk to the first batter, then a wild pitch.

    The Twins might be better Ten Years After this season.

    Why the pinch hitter?

    I'm blacked out here

    The ESPN write-up is this: "The Twins ranked low last year, and I'll repeat what I said then: The team itself is probably better than this ranking, but there isn't a lot of glitz and glamour here. No big star (Carlos Correa's shine has dulled and Byron Buxton really never got there in the first place), no big masher, no speedster on the bases or must-see ace on the mound. The youth score will go up if Emmanuel Rodriguez and Luke Keaschall get called up -- which might be the case given the early struggles of the offense."

    FWIW, ESPN ranks the Twins 27th in MLB in terms of "watchability." Seems too high. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/44629277/mlb-2025-rankings-most-fun-teams-watch-dodgers-red-sox-phillies-cubs-padres

    An actual base hit would be nice.
  15. UpstateNewYorker
    A walk and a HBP. This qualifies as a rally.

    Royals were hoping to get a tax to pay for a new stadium but the voters rejected the plan: https://apnews.com/article/chiefs-royals-kansas-city-stadiums-e9605296b85e91699441e4ba10e83212

    Not sure why Julien went into home head first, or whatever you call that slide. He made it easier to be tagged on the arm. How about a normal slide?
  18. UpstateNewYorker
    IMHO the roster's position players, talent-wise, are just not that good, and it shows when you have two potential starters (Lewis and Lee) injured. How many of our guys would be starters on a playoff-caliber team? France, Julien, Miranda, Gasper ... even Jeffers, Bader, Castro and Larnach are probably not every-day players on a "good" MLB team.
  19. UpstateNewYorker
    If that was a double steal Julien broke way too early,
  20. UpstateNewYorker
    Same here with the audio problem. I'm watching on MLB.TV.
  21. UpstateNewYorker
    Completely agree. I give Falvey credit for assembling a decent pitching staff, but after seven years of this regime we've got a weak hitting lineup that can't play defense.
  22. UpstateNewYorker
    Morneau blaming the wet grass for the error.
  23. UpstateNewYorker
    You're behind by 9 with a 3-2 count and you take a pitch down the middle?
  24. UpstateNewYorker
    Has to be part of the tanking plan. 🤮
  25. UpstateNewYorker
    Maybe this is part of an ingenious tanking plan for 2025.
