I was not able to cast from my Samsung android phone, but my daughter was able to cast from her iPhone. Might be a user error on my part! Thanks for the feedback. -
One in-the-weeds question: I have been watching the Twins on MLB.tv (which I get free as a T-Mobile customer). On my LG TV the MLB app is available. On my discount Visio smart TV the MLB app is not available -- it is not pre-installed and is not in the list of apps that can be downloaded. So I watch the games on the LG TV or on a PC. But is there any solution to the MLB app not being available on the Visio TV?

Carlos Correa Trade Buzz Is Heating Up
UpstateNewYorker replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
For Correa to go to either NY team I assume he'd have to move to 3B. Volpe and Lindor are recent Gold Glove winners, so I doubt they would be moved. Maybe Correa would be OK with this, but I doubt it. -
That takes me back! As I recall we called him Big Bird. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilles_Lupien

I grew up watching the AHL Rochester Americans, and I remember the Bisons' logo.

The $99 would be just for Twins games, according to a previous post: "The in-market, blackout-free streaming option for MLB-distributed teams last season was $99.99 for the season or $19.99 per month, and there seems to be a sense that Twins fans should expect similar." I have the MLB.TV package (free because I have TMobile for cell service) but I think the whole MLB package was $139 last year. The Mets and Yankees games are blacked out for me here in NY State, because these broadcasts are not "MLB-distributed."

Completely agree. Back in the Moneyball era "analytics" was about finding advantages in the margins. With the larger bases it would seem that base stealing and taking the extra base is a small area teams can exploit. We're supposedly an analytical organization but the Twins haven't gotten any more athletic since these rules were implemented.

Great points. Very few of our recent call-ups have been even average defensively. It does seem like defensive ability is a low priority for the FO, which to me is a glaring problem.

Wallner's throw was halfway to third base.

Seattle is winning. Have to keep an eye on them.

Thanks to Buck wearing the oven mitt.

Two innings in a row where the lead-off batter went one pitch, one out. Drives me nuts when they are down a run and need a base runner.
-
Remember when we used to score runs?

Looking at his spray chart he's hit one HR to CF, the rest to right and right-center. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/trevor-larnach/21501/spray-charts?position=OF&type=battedball

There's a 1960s movie with Peter Sellers called "Dr. Strangelove". And in the '60s a bad fielding player on the Orioles -- Dick Stuart -- was nicknamed Dr. Strangeglove."

And root against the Yankees. 🙂

Cleveland's rally: seeing-eye grounder that probably should have been fielded, error on a routine grounder to short, bloop hit, sac fly.

Our defense is ... disappointing.
-
Another awful at bat by Carlos.
-
And that's why he gets the big bucks.

Santana swinging at everything.

Nice play Jax. (And Lee is not a SS.)
-
Yes, his own pitcher.

Heady play there. 🤪

Morneau in his MVP season?
