  1. With the injury history and contact issues if Rodriguez ever becomes a regular Twin contributor I will be pleasantly surprised. Let me say I am hoping to be pleasantly surprised.
  2. Wallner passed his strike zone judgement to Keaschall upon his demotion
  3. Not watching but imagine Bell got his Driver out and was going for the green.
  4. From Lewis comments I am not sure he is mentally in the right state to succeed. Somewhat paranoid that people are waiting for him to struggle and comments that he is looking over his shoulder that the Twins will send him down. We all would love if he was more successful and there will always be competition for jobs at any level of baseball. Based on these comments alone I would either send him down if that would allow him to take a breath and reset or trade him if you think a minor league stint would spiral him down further and give him a fresh start somewhere else.
  5. We just need to give the bullpen guys some endearing nicknames so we feel better about them: Luis "Punching Bag" Garcia, Justin "Hitmehard" Topa, Anthony "Gasoline" Banda does that make anyone feel better? If these were young developing guys it would be one thing but these are veterans that have a big bag of nothing. Not that this is a surprise - after the trade deadline moves and no meaningful signings in the offseason and not developing anyone from the minors.
  6. Maybe better described as a revolving door than an open door - lol! The revolving door is spinning for you Luis Garcia - enjoy your stay!
  7. Held them to only 3 runs - bullpen performing up to their expectations.
  8. We have had very good ball luck this game on our 2 run producing hits.
  9. Very Twinsy - a batter with an 0 for 15 streak batting for a guy with an 0 for 13 streak
  10. There are times when hit placement trumps exit velocity
  11. I would send Wallner down at this point just to see if he can regain some semblance of offense - maybe heat up with the weather.
  12. We will take a Sac Fly - HBP is the next good bet for Wallner
  13. At the risk of jinxing him - Bradley pitching has been a nice development for the Twins this March & April - it has been a pleasure to watch him pitch hope it continues to at least give us something to look forward to watching the team.
  14. One obvious and inconsequential comment on the game - Starting pitcher win and loss records don't matter like they did 20+ years ago and that likely is a good thing. Ryan ended up getting tagged with the loss after his runner scored the winning run but who really cares - that is not how starting pitchers are evaluated - we all would consider he pitched a good game going 6 innings and giving up 2 runs. While I do miss a little bit the responsibility for winning and losing that came with being the starter - no one today would look and want to pin this loss on Ryan - we would like to give it to the bullpen.
  15. Kriedler is the new Wallner look at that OPS - except with better defense - lol!
  16. Can't do the Fundamental things right - no change from the last 2 years. It's got to get better than this.
