    SwainZag, on 11 April 2021, 12:05 PM said: ... 4/10 innings the Twins had a runner on 2nd or 3rd to end innings. 0/8 with runners in RISP. One clutch hit all game and things are different. A little early to be trashing the bullpen. How did the M's score on the bullpen today? Against Colome: Infield single, stolen base, single. Against Rogers: Bunt single, sac fly. One ball went out of the infield. They haven't looked "Championship" caliber, but it's April 10th. I'm not fretting yet. This. Way too many guys left on base. The bats have also failed to bring home the second base runner in the 10th three times now.

    Governor Walz has announced that the whinging and the hand-wringing can stop now (even though it was just the Mariners).

    "Strikeouts are boring! Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic." What made the performance really stand out was 12 Ks and _no_ walks.

    Astudillo has exactly _one_ error over 86 innings at different positions in 14 games this springs training. His offensive output over the same period offset that damage many, many times over. He has earned a spot on the club until someone outplays him or he's plays himself off it.

    "... The Twins offense offered nothing." As posted elsewhere: 3 hits, 2 walks, 1 run, 4 LOB. Scored only 2 against Pirates, 1 against Braves... not right. Offense has been MIA since last October.
  6. VivaBomboRivera!
    After today's game, yes.

    How about we just get through Opening Day, and see how things look at the end of April?
  8. VivaBomboRivera!
    The Twins have raised the bar to make the roster every offseason under the new administration. This is not a bad thing. Because we like Astudillo, we should want him to raise his personal performance bar so that he can remain relevant for the club. Reminiscences and wishful thinking will not do it.

    "I guess I was hoping for something from column B." He's here all week, folks! Try the veal!

    The article deserves beaucoup likes and style points for the title alone. It's all pure speculation until a real negotiation starts, but if there were an opportunity perhaps it's best to focus on what a pitcher like that could do for the team's championship prospects in the '21 season, and let the years beyond that take care of themselves. '22 is burdened with the uncertainty of a new collective bargaining agreement. Who knows where we'll be in '23? Let's play for today.

    Right now this belongs to Maeda. Someone else would have to come in an earn the right to wear it.

    Wow, we've come a long way from Toledo. Shame there's not a peep about Elizabethton.
  13. VivaBomboRivera!
    It’s because there are good umpires that we know there are bad ones. Call them out. “Tighten it up!”
  14. VivaBomboRivera!
    Nice work. Illustrates that there are few easy choices. Do we keep a known quantity who may yet do better or roll the dice on another starter or platoon?
  15. VivaBomboRivera!
    I suppose hope will be resurrected about the time the snow flies...

    And the net of this article is: Ya dance with them that brung ya.
  17. VivaBomboRivera!
    But this is what relievers do, they provide relief, right?
  18. VivaBomboRivera!
    I remember hearing this before somewhere.
  19. VivaBomboRivera!
    Does this mean TK's coming out of retirement?
  20. VivaBomboRivera!
    No worries. We've got them right where we want them.
  21. VivaBomboRivera!
    It could all be over Thursday, as the Twins are now in a position to eliminate the Astros with two more victories. Fixed yer article.
  22. VivaBomboRivera!
    Ummm, let's see... - fine pitch taker and defensive catcher - fair bat - not a rookie Seems you might want a guy like this around for late- or extra-inning lineup re-shuffles, and naturally in case someone (gods forbid) gets hurt.
  23. VivaBomboRivera!
    Nothing beats hot bats in September! 'cept mebbe hot pitchin'!
  24. VivaBomboRivera!
    Glad you've come around. Considering losing in order to win is just...

    Any of you guys want some Garv Sauce with that?
