  1. He says nothing in so many different ways.
  2. Most home runs hit since hitting into a GDP.
  3. By the time they get the tarp on the field, it will be over.
  4. My weather app says heavy rain stopping in 26 minutes.
  5. The walk is the difference in this game so far.
  6. From my couch, I would have called that a hit. He had a long way to charge that ball and really no angle to throw.
  7. Much better inning for Winder. No hard hit balls, he stayed ahead of the count and got the Brewers to hit his pitch.
  8. It is. I was surprised how easily he beat the throw.
  9. Ouch, the walk scores along with ‘Cutch. Too many pitches behind in the count.
  10. Is picking up his option written into his contract? Is that a standard of any contract with an option in it? Picking up Sanó’s contract now would cost in the neighborhood of $4.5M. That isn’t nothing, but only 45% of $10M.
  11. Two teams with similar records. The Twins will miss Milwaukee’s top starters and they are at home. One win would be mildly disappointing and losing both would be a real lost opportunity.
  12. As long as they don’t have a third hitter whose name starts with “K”.
  13. It isn’t a sure thing that any of the current Twins starters will be able to convert to the bullpen. Recent history also shows that having seven pitchers available won’t continue. The Twins will probably need all seven options (current five + Archer and Ober). Winder and Ober can be optioned—I wonder if Winder might be sent down tomorrow if Joe Smith is activated—but with the fragile and rotation they are all but certain to make starts for the Twins in the remaining 74 games.
  14. I check MLB Trade Rumors on a daily basis. They do provide a lot of injury news, but they don't often update status on players until a roster move is made.
  15. I don't do Twitter and I haven't found a place on the internet that provides timely updates on injured players. There was a posting in "Twins Roster Moves" asking for information on Bailey Ober. There are several others I haven't heard about in weeks--Alcala, Coulombe and Dobnak. Also Jhon Romero (remember him?). Alcala, for example was shut down "temporarily" after making one rehab appearance on June 1 and we haven't heard anything concrete since. The Twins mlb website does provide updates, but they don't update every day. I will pin this as a place to update Twins' injuries. Contributors who are plugged in more than me are welcome! Thanks.
  16. I hope this the first of several appearances for both players. I hope and expect many more on the Twins’ roster will be selected in future years.
  17. I agree with you. I keep thing that Buck with his <.220 average and frequent use as a DH shouldn’t be invited, but even with him being limited, he’s a consequential player. I’d love to see the numbers 2021 Buxton would put up, but I’m glad Buxton is recognized.
  18. Another factor that plays in here would be official scoring. I suspect many infield hits have been scored as errors in the past. Obviously speed plus hitting the ball on the ground on the left side of the infield would give players a better chance to reach on an error.
  19. Flashbacks of the game in Oakland last year. Also a flashback of Harmon being injured on a similar play back in the 60s.
  20. He also looked in when he took off.
  21. Defensive replacement for Kirilloff. The problem was the next hitter (Gordon) fouled a ball off his knee and now has been removed from the game.
