    I'm wondering just how significant Wes Johnson's departure was to this current mess.
  2. chinmusic
    Am I to assume then, that you do not approve of Buxton's contract? As far as Kirilloff; doesn't seem to be hitting with much power. Is that the wrist?
  3. chinmusic
    Post season hero, huh? That would be an unexpected but very cool twist. Too bad, but "Sano's last stand" seems inevitable.
  4. chinmusic
    You read my mind!
  5. chinmusic
    The way I see it, as long as we're scoreboard watching, we're still relevant!

    Worth mentioning that ESPN had Duran on Sunday, with MLB.COM "undecided". Who knows, maybe the bullpen will be reinforced by then. I suppose you can factor in Monday being an off day, as well.

    I have nothing against Bailey Ober whatsoever, but it seems as if his perceived value has increased in his absence. To me, he's been like a Michael Pineda in his time with the Twins; steady but hardly a stopper. I think a healthy Polanco would be a great asset in the second half. Miranda, Kirilloff, Correa, Sanchez, Kepler, et al. The more, the merrier. We shall see. On a side note, noticed Ryan is starting tomorrow against the Tigers, and Duran (!) on Sunday. as an opener? followed by Gray? The plot thickens.

    So Buxton is starting in CF on Tuesday. Sheesh! Are the outfield walls padded at Chavez Ravine?
  9. chinmusic
    If so, it's pretty bad. More like an Eric Davis impersonation.
  10. chinmusic
    Agreed. 2 stolen bases past the half way point in games played? Sure, lots of extra base hits, and few walks, valid rationales, but methinks there's more to the story.
  11. chinmusic
    Why not? He threw 8 pitches in the 9th! (otherwise known as an Arraez at bat..lol) I don't get it. Duran couldn't have come out in the 10th? with an off day tomorrow, to boot?
  12. chinmusic
    Sure was! Thinking of his heyday with the A's and Cards; it's kind of sad (but just a little)?
  13. chinmusic
    Well, all I can say is that yesterday's game was the definition of an antidote. From an appreciative fan!
  14. chinmusic
    Well, even a split of the remaining 4 games in this series is acceptable. But I'm greedy, and 3 of 4 (and a 5 game lead) would be better. And Baltimore is on deck. Anyone notice that the Orioles have been playing really well lately?
  15. chinmusic
    Hopefully Sonny Gray and company will be "hungry like the wolf" tomorrow night in Cleveland. Sorry, that's all I got...LOL
  16. chinmusic
    I would think that if that does happen, they'd make adjustments. They can't be that rigid. (he said hopefully)
  17. chinmusic
    Kepler's generally very good at working the count.
  18. chinmusic
    Yeah. It's a pleasure having him on the Twins. And depending on how this season plays out, 2022 may not be the end of the line.
  19. chinmusic
    At this point in time, if Jeffers is secretly turning a corner, it's a pretty well kept secret. Here's hoping....
  20. chinmusic
    The inevitable , pre-ordained collision with Buxton; thus killing two birds with one stone. Ouch!
  21. chinmusic
    How about if he hits .400. That ought to do it!
  22. chinmusic
    Indeed you did!?
  23. chinmusic
    Yep, those double digit pitch counts have become an Arraez signature, and they're great! I really don't see the Willans comparison though. Polar opposites regarding pitch count.
  24. chinmusic
  25. chinmusic
    Yeah, you might have a point there. Physically, more Puckett than Carew. Joie de vivre, more Puckett than Carew. Early in his career, Kirby did not hit many hrs either, and the way Arraez crushed the grand slam, might be indicative of things to come. Ok, flirting with .400 BA (he might), more Carew than Puckett. Still, liked the comparison. I hadn't thought of it.
