  1. Counting the strike out-throw out, that is three double plays for a total of four base runners.
  2. There's a start for Larnach!
  3. For those of you enjoying this and the other game threads this year, we are always looking for new takes for the introductions. I've posted the May calendar in the "Game Thread Introductions--2022" thread. Send me a message if you'd like to pick up an introduction and show your stuff.
  4. Just two weeks until May! We have a new google doc with a schedule for game thread introductions for May. There are about 10 dates open and I would invite newbies to volunteer and show your stuff. Here is the link to the schedule for May. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vS_0wf3YAts97x-ps9Glpy6uBxqN4VG1OWwu2JE-Z5M/edit
  5. Pitch around the double, Josh.
  6. I like Arraez' chances to get the run home, but the GDP sure changed things. Edited to add: or not.
  7. Let's get those runs back (and wake up Squirrel)!
  8. Totally agree with your view about pitchers. Not so sure about position players.
  9. I think all four players who are missing time are "big piece" injuries. Two starting outfielders--one on IL--one of the best bullpen arms now a starting pitcher.
  10. I now count four--Alcala, Kirilloff, Buxton, and Gray.
  11. Well, maybe that's the solution to the 6-man rotation. At least it is not his arm.
  12. So far Gray hasn't had good command and that's supposed to be his strength.
  13. The cynical answer would be he's on the 40-man roster.
  14. I'd like for Larnach to respond to this opportunity with some good hitting. So far, not so much.
  15. I understand Chicago squirrels are the most dangerous, especially when driving mini-Coopers.
  16. I’ll bet they put him on the IL. If verified, this is great news.
  17. Certainly not good news. I would expect the medical people will try to modify the treatment and/or therapy they used after the surgery. What they did last time apparently didn't work. There are lots of cases where injuries derail a promising career. It seems to me that the Twins have had more than their share.
  18. MLB Trade Rumors and Dick ‘n’ Roy are reporting that there is no new injury to Kirilloff, that he got a cortisone shot and that the club says he can work through the pain and play. Hmmmm, this is saying it is chronic injury. I just got a cortisone shot myself. At least for me, there are no guarantees of even modest improvement so on balance I don’t know if I’d call it positive. I guess he’ll try to come back, but obviously this might be a career threatening injury.
  19. So Buxton was running less than 100% (good, he won’t blow out a hammy), he slides feet-first into second (also good, he won’t break a finger) and he still gets hurt. It looked like it was his ankle, let’s hope for a sprain but given his reaction I’m not optimistic.
