    Congrats to Henriquez on his first MLB win. A gritty victory with some help from the Rangers. Outstanding bunt by Martin, and it often happens that a sacrifice bunt becomes a single. Willi had a big hit to get the win.
  2. stringer bell
    Not perfect by any means, but the team got off the mat and scored late to beat a talented team (not going well right now).
  3. stringer bell
    No inherited runners for Sands. He’s got this. (Sarcasm)
  4. stringer bell
    Nice SF there.
  5. stringer bell
    There are a lot of good things about Miranda as an offensive player, but he is really slow.

    Royce Lewis is an elite athlete who has suffered a rash of injuries. He has moved off shortstop (perhaps permanently) and landed at third base. He has the agility, range and arm to be better than average at third, but he hasn’t played there a lot and his footwork on throws has sometimes been a mess. He needs more work, but a healthy off-season with no further injury to recover from might give him time to improve his defense. i think he’s a third baseman to start 2025, but a position change could happen sometime relatively soon.

    With three rookies in the rotation for the foreseeable future, I would expect the average number of innings goes down. You go with what you’ve got and with middle relief currently being a soft spot, Rocco has stayed with starters a bit more than average.
  8. stringer bell
    Good throw again. Didn’t get him this time
  9. stringer bell
    Proper call unfortunately.
  10. stringer bell
    Jung wasn’t close to the changeup.
  11. stringer bell
    Jax in the eighth, Alcalá or Durán for the ninth.
  12. stringer bell
    Rocco should have a quick hook here. SWR has truly been shaky thus far.
  13. stringer bell
    The Rangrs have had a bunch of long drives, while the Twins have two wall-scraper HRs.
  14. stringer bell
    Just setting him up for the next pitch.
  15. stringer bell
    Nice to see Edouard swing the bat, even though he struck out.
  16. stringer bell
    Ten days for position players, fifteen for pitchers.
  17. stringer bell
    I believe he has to spend 15 days at AAA, unless he’s recalled to fill for a player placed on the Injured List.
  18. stringer bell
    Per Phil Miller of the strib,Ronny Henriquez is in Texas with the Twins, so Julien for Buxton and Henriquez for Varland.
  19. stringer bell
    On today’s game—the Royals had more hard-hit balls and many more opportunities. It would have been very disappointing for them if they lost today. Varland has a high-velo straight fastball and ???? With exceptional command or if he’s got his secondary pitches working, he’s okay. I honestly don’t know if he really profiles to be better as a reliever. Agree that both Jeffers and Castro have had plenty of poor ABs lately, but two days ago, we could have said the same thing about Miranda. Hitting comes and it goes. Not a huge fan of using Durán as early as the seventh, but despite what some here have said, Rocco was trying to win. Martin should have caught Witt Jr.’s fly ball and he’s made too many misplays in the OF. I think he’s looked better than okay at second, but with his skill set, he needs to play more than one position. Its asking for an awful lot for this club to win against quality opposition without both Buxton and Correa. The completed 4-3 homestand vs. Cleveland and KC is status quo. One more win would have equaled success.

    Jax has been mostly a seventh or eighth inning guy. If he doesn’t hold the lead in those cases he gets charged with a blown save, if he does hold the lead he gets a “hold”, but it’s a one-way street as far as the save since someone else will pitch the ninth for the actual save.
  21. stringer bell
    Lucky Louie!!
  22. stringer bell
    Same as the pitch Witt Jr. hit for a homer.
  23. stringer bell
    Quick fourth for Louie with the GDP. Ragans looks dominant, but that could change in a blink.
  24. stringer bell
    Audra’s update seems to indicate an IL stint is likely. Julien would be the default choice to be recalled, unless they go off the 40-man for Keirsey Jr.
  25. stringer bell
    I’m sure that’s what Nick meant. Putting Buck on the IL is tough only in that finding a replace would create a 40-man issue. The only position players at St. Paul on the roster are Julien and Camargo as well as the injured Severino and Rodriguez. They could recall Julien, I suppose, and move Castro to the OF.
