    Maybe better described as a revolving door than an open door - lol! The revolving door is spinning for you Luis Garcia - enjoy your stay!

    Held them to only 3 runs - bullpen performing up to their expectations.
  3. wavedog
    We have had very good ball luck this game on our 2 run producing hits.

    Very Twinsy - a batter with an 0 for 15 streak batting for a guy with an 0 for 13 streak

    Walk the lefty - hello loss column
  6. wavedog
    There are times when hit placement trumps exit velocity

    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.
  8. wavedog
    We will take a Sac Fly - HBP is the next good bet for Wallner

    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.

    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.

    Kriedler is the new Wallner look at that OPS - except with better defense - lol!
  12. wavedog
    Nice way to get out of that jam!

    Keystone cops instead of keystone combo
  14. wavedog
    Let's see if we can comeback!
  15. wavedog
    Yay - Twins Win! Very nice game for Bradley!
  16. wavedog
    Not sure why we are not pinch-running for Bell
  17. wavedog
    Can't do the Fundamental things right - no change from the last 2 years. It's got to get better than this.
  18. wavedog
    Hello Bullpen! Get your popcorn ready.
  19. wavedog
    Not advancing the runner on 2nd with no outs again - check
  20. wavedog
    Keaschall running the whole way - love to see that!
  21. wavedog
    Don't lookup what we are hitting so far with runners in scoring position. That has not changed.
  22. wavedog
    Well, nice to see good running by Martin and Keaschall that inning.

    My 4 reasons for finding optimism were going to be 1) Drugs 2) Alcohol 3) Finding Religion 4) Mental instability and I am a generally optimistic person. That being said I will be watching with my MLB.tv subscription. Being a fan since the late 1960's I have made it through a lot of bad seasons. My approach will be to celebrate individual player improvement and success and try not to focus on the big picture. Hopefully we don't hang on too long to vets that are underperforming and we see some of the younger guys get a try so that they gain some experience. If somehow a bad fundamental, bad defense, meh offense and no bullpen injury-prone team can compete for a playoff spot I will be pleasantly surprised.

    Well, this sucks. Will miss his pitching and leadership. For a low payroll team that the Twins are this is is a killer as well. It will end up that we paid Lopez $66M for the 2025-2027 seasons and we may get 2 partial seasons out of the deal. Don't know if we had any insurance to cover a portion. To be optimistic - hope this gives a young starter a chance to blossom.

    I will say I am glad I don't have to watch Julien play defense anymore - wish both Julien and Ohl well in Colorado. Decent get for what we traded. The Danny Santana mention reminded me that he and his family rented the house across from me when he played for the Rangers - Nice family.
