  1. I think I see her getting loose in the pen. (vocal exercises)? BUT..I'll throw in a couple more cliches - One game at a time and It ain't over til it's over
  2. Fan is short for fanatic. As irrational as it seems, I tend to maintain hope until the team is mathematically eliminated. But the more realistic side of me quoted you for a reason. Sadly, I know you are right. The Twins just don't have the horses to compete.
  3. Yep. And so does Correa. It will be very interesting to see how it all plays out.
  4. Might be time to recalibrate expectations . Arraez at .316; second to Bogaerts .318 in AL batting race. Just a thought on Correa. Watching him play, his defense, leadership qualities, durability and stats on offense, he has been very solid. It's the contract that unfairly diminishes the perception of what in fact, has been a fine year. I'll miss him, and what a pity that there was not a healthy Buxton in the lineup along with him.
  5. Precisely! I've generally been a Baldelli supporter, but my goodness. Also , why start pulling starters out in the fifth inning. Hell, why not just forfeit, if that's the mindset. Baseball never ceases to amaze.
  6. Twins have won the season series against 4 of 5 AL East teams (with Yankees pending) This is also who the Twins are.
  7. If the Twins complete the Red Sox sweep tonight ( I think they will), and sweep the White Sox (I think they might), #10 will be a day game against A. Judge and Co. at Yankee Stadium on Monday. A great way to celebrate Labour Day!
  8. That IS bizarre! FYI - A.J. Pierzynski is a pretty good analyst. Opinionated, but the man knows baseball. I find the You Tube broadcasts horrendous; so staged. I mute sound, and listen to Cory Provus and (sigh) Dan Gladden.
  9. Could be a challenge with the pitching match up, but I'm in. Arraez, Miranda slumping, Correa heating up. No Polanco . Who will today's hero be? Go Twins!
  10. Occasionally, I wonder how significant the departure of Wes Johnson was to the unraveling of the team. Not only as a pitching coach, but to the Twin's management group. For what it's worth, the Twins still control their destiny regarding first place in the division (forget the wild card ) Just something to maintain interest. But, you know, a combined 0 and 10 vs the Astros and Dodgers this year. Nuff said.
  11. and imagine how that would make Jorge Lopez feel?...the definition of irony
  12. Berrios has been a big issue here in Toronto. Have you seen that ERA?
  13. The mere fact that he stunningly signed with the Twins at all, indicates that nothing's out of the question. I'd be thrilled with a second year. As a poster mentioned earlier, speculation will have more relevance at the end of the season.
  14. Way to go, Nick Gordon. Taking it to another level! Loved the breast stroke at home plate in the bottom of the tenth. Kudo's to the Twins for having to go with a lineup not remotely resembling the "A" team, and finding a way to win.?
  15. It was inevitable. Things change quickly. Seems like yesterday that Rogers and Duffey were the Twin stalwarts out of the pen. He's been horrible. Someone will pick him up, though.
  16. Bullpen looking good. Would help having a second lefty. I suspect we'll see Moran again before long.
  17. The Jays have issues now, too. Won't be seeing much of Springer, if at all. Essentially that's why they picked up Merrifield. Stripling, who's been pitching well, just went on the IL. Bichette's just not hitting. A week or 10 days ago, I was dreading this series. Now, not so much.
  18. The next couple of months should be a lot of fun, as the pennant races are taking shape. How about that Sandy Leon. Early candidate for AL player of the month? Yee-haw!! Bring on the Jays...
  19. The front office is addressing what needs to be addressed. The White Sox and Guardians haven't done much. The Twins post season stock has risen dramatically. Gee, I hope Carlos Correa is as impressed as I am.
  20. I vote for lessley. Morneau's not that bad. But then, I'm Canadian, and perhaps biased.?
  21. True, and though the Twins lost by a demoralizing 9 runs, they maintained their sartorial dignity.
