  1. Twins are 0-5 since trading Alcala. I guess blaming the 6th guy in the bullpen wasn’t the master plan after all.
  2. Was about to turn on the Twins game — then remembered my doctor said to avoid high blood pressure and emotional instability.
  3. I'd say my numbers are unconfirmed as well. I used AI...asking for confirmation...but still could be off.
  4. Can't blame Castro for not making the catch. Game was lost by going 0-8 RISP Houston goes 2-9 RISP
  5. Twins Xtra inning record since 2020. Ghost runner rule. Wins: 37 Losses: 42 Win %: .468
  6. Typical Minnesota Sports Pattern. ( Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves) Hopeless: Twins Slow Start Hope restored: Winning Streak Gut Punch.. Back to Hopeless
  7. Hader threw 13 pitches... Game will be over before our pitcher throws 10
  8. We just a touchdown and Xpt from tieing this game up !
  9. Just wanted to add: Jim Kaat was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2022 wearing a Minnesota Twins cap on his plaque, reflecting the team where he spent the majority of his career .
  10. And so we can close the book on the Ryan Pressly trade… and it ends with a Double-A question mark. From elite closer to organizational filler. That’s a wrap.
  11. Festa pitched well last night...SWR might give you 4 innings. If Twins play. 500 ball from here to end of August we should be happy.
  12. Ober, Sands and Wentz Sounds less like a pitching staff and more like a law firm that specializes in class action losses.
  13. Great article. Seems a lot of calls go against Correa. Since he was apart of the scandal in Houston. Are umpires subconsciously against him? This is a question. Not an opinion.
  14. Turning back into a pumpkin just means settling back into your typical level. For some players, like Clemens, that ’s a drop-off. For others like Lewis, getting back to their true form is actually a step forward. It all depends on what the baseline is."
  15. Just reported the facts. What could I possibly had said that's disagreeable? Thread Athletics helped Okert — that’s not debate, it’s data.
  16. Steven Okert whom the Twins cut last year has resurrected his career in Houston. He when to Tread Athletics. ---- Tread Athletics is a data-driven baseball performance facility and remote coaching service, based in Charlotte, NC. Founded by Ben Brewster (former pro pitcher and author of Building the 95 MPH Body), Tread combines biomechanical assessments, strength & mobility training, pitch design, and ongoing coach interaction to help athletes improve velocity, reduce injury risk, and optimize performance .
  17. I can find a John, and I can find a bench...but I can't find a Johnny Bench. He was a great one. My favorite Red.
  18. The Twins' longest road trip of the season is over, seems fitting it ended on a dud. Tampa Bay Rays (May 26–28) Seattle Mariners (May 30–June 1) Oakland Athletics (June 3–5) The trip spaned over 7,300 miles, making it not only the longest for the Twins this season but also one of the most extensive in recent MLB history.
  19. I thought for sure the title for today's game was going to read: " A's Feast on Festa"
  20. "Jorge Alcala coughed up a three-run homer to Soderstrom" It was a Grand Slam. Not a 3 run bomb.
  21. Pete Alonso signed a 2 year, $54,000,000 contract with the New York Mets, including $10,000,000 signing bonus, $54,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $27,000,000. Twins or Seattle probably have to sweeten the deal to pull him away from the Mets. Only in our dreams would Twins ownership pull that trigger. But yes, one more player like Alonso would of been a game changer.
  22. Agreed, but Twins could have easily been swept as well. Close games, but good teams win them. After Friday's dramatic win, I was expecting this team to start soaring again. Mistakes did them in.
  23. Agreed...that image reveals a better sense of how helpless the runner was. Yet...a perfectly executed hook slide probably avoids the tag and he gets his hand in under the tag...maybe. Highly doubt Wallner is a candidate for such athleticism. It's hard to be a 3rd case coach. In a split second you have to decide. Do I want bases loaded and no outs or take the risk to score. If I'm wrong...still have a runner at 2nd with one out. Tough call to make. Easy to judge in retrospect.
  24. Your comment made he go look at Wallner slide....I mean...who slides like this? Do I slide head (hands) first or feet first?? Let's try both!!!
