  1. 6.1 for Pablo. BP needs eight outs. Not trusting the Twins to score again.
  2. I don’t think Varland has gone 5 scoreless yet this year. He did give up only one in six innings yesterday.
  3. He throws the ball into the ground on purpose.
  4. I doubt Correa tries for a triple with two out even if he’s running 100% out of the box.
  5. I don’t know. Detroit looks like they’ve found something for their offense and they have okay pitching. E Rodriguez might be a Cy Young contender.
  6. Right kplay, good throw, slowish runner. .
  7. Second chance to bring in a guy from second. This time with two out.
  8. It would have been really nice to get Polanco in.
  9. The player on the team that is the most important (to me) is Pablo López.
  10. Like the City Connect uniforms as a slump breaker.
  11. I seldom blame coaches for teams’ problems. I doubt Popkins is to blame in any meaningful way. The hitters need to hit and it’s really on them.
  12. Yes, game threads have been too much sometimes. It seems that the posters are playing “can you top this?” with criticism and doom posting. Twins’ struggles are permission to second guess every transaction the Twins have made since David Ortiz was let go. The team can help by playing better.
  13. For the moment, for the first time since Opening Day, Luis Arraez’ batting average is below .400 (.398).
  14. They have what they have for players and with the exception of Royce Lewis, there’s no one in the minors that can help much right now. Giving Nick Gordon some at-bats isn’t crazy, butI doubt he can lead the charge. I am in favor of a more equal sharing of the catcher position, but that won’t move the needle much either. Buxton, Correa and Polanco need to start hitting like All-Stars. Kirilloff, Gallo and Kepler need to be hitting like good major league regulars.
  15. It is a move that probably needed to be made. I could see Solano being DFAed or Castro optioned, but what is best for Miranda and the team is to give him a reset. The mid-summer Miranda was a candidate for rookie honors. 2023 Miranda was a candidate for demotion. Good that they have a veteran "floor" at third base with Farmer, but I'm sure the Twins were counting on Miranda.
  16. Per mlbtraderumors.com, the Twins will option Miranda to make room for Farmer. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/05/twins-option-jose-miranda-triple-a.html
  17. Yeah, the real prospect of demotion might be a motivator.
  18. Probably Louie's last hitter.
  19. I did think it's time to split the catching a bit more equally.
  20. Nit pick--there was one out. Polanco flied out to left before Miranda's double.
