  1. Probably Smeltzer?
  2. That pretty much closes the book on his Twins career. The guy I thought could be a hitter like Frank Thomas turned out to be closer to Mark Reynolds.
  3. I presume they'll swap Leon for Hamilton. Leon is the better receiver and has experience and Hamilton is expendable.
  4. I don’t think the Twins burned an option. His time in the majors was as a COVID list replacement IIRC. I think there is a reasonable chance that he’ll be added to the 40-man roster and given a chance to make the 2023 Twins if Correa opts out. In the SSS of both players’ major league time, I liked Palacios’ defense better than Royce Lewis’ defense at short.
  5. Gio will be back Monday I would expect, so that would provide a 13th position player for now. It’s been obvious that he (Kirilloff) hasn’t been driving the ball for some time.
  6. Carlos is at about .100 with two outs and RISP.
  7. Chance of a triple play are about as high as they will ever be.
  8. I would guess that Varland leads Twins' affiliates in IP. He seems to be on a path to get to MLB sometime next year. Has Woods-Richardson made a start since being injured? Monday is August 1st. I would think that decisions would have to be made about shutting down players--Balazovic, Canterino, Martin.
  9. The month of July is almost over. The Twins are still in first place and the game threads should be hopping in the coming month,. If anyone new would like to try their hand at doing a game thread introduction, you have a chance in August. There are 28 game days in the month and so far about 20 have been spoken for. You, yes you(!), can take your turn at the wheel and set the stage for another exciting and entertaining. game. If you are interested or have questions, send me a message or respond in this thread. Here is the tentative schedule for August: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RDtza8g3yIsR6qMrieWot9zyTB_HoM6mcfCc3chmMRc/edit
  10. I don’t have sprint speed stats, but I don’t think Garlick is particularly slow. He’s not agile and doesn’t have great instincts, but I think his straight ahead speed is okay.
  11. Looked to me like a rather poor jump. It’s hard to pick up balls that don’t go high in the air.
  12. Three innings, three walks. Playing with fire.
  13. Sánchez with the “”steal”. “Do you believe in miracles?”
  14. I guess the shiny 2.20 ERA might go a little higher today.
  15. I think the Twins should shift only when the hitter is going to pull the ball on the ground. /s/
