  1. I fully expect Polanco goes on the IL tomorrow, so Ober could still have that spot if they decided to go that way.
  2. Actually Ober could also be recalled since someone was placed on the IL since he was optioned. So either Thorpe or Ober could be recalled. From what I’ve heard of Pineda’s injury is that he had stitches, but that he should be fine after the minimum IL stint. It makes sense to use Dobnak on regular rest and wait for Pineda to start after the off day.
  3. Good article Seth. I think the key here is patience and many in the TD community are fresh out of that commodity. The homegrown guys should make an impact soon and hopefully some of them are high ceiling types.
  4. Man, they've been unbelievably bad in extra innings. Colume is not the ideal choice to keep the score tied.
  5. My opinion here--Astudio isn't a premium catcher, but he's acceptable.
  6. Yep, just about everything favors the Cleveland team. If the Twins are going to win this one, they'll have to beat the odds.
  7. In front of their best offensive player, against a lefty? I think that's a low percentage, but I'm sure Eddie would love to somehow steal a run and win the game.
  8. Not exactly. Blankenhorn was DFAed by the Dodgers yesterday.
  9. Alcala showing some emotion coming off the field. I like that. I can imagine he convinced himself that he was put upon to face the heart of the order without much time to get ready.
  10. I'm sure that Kirilloff is ready to contribute, I'm not sure about Larnach (but you knew that).
  11. Not sure if Larnach is ready, but I’m certain Kirilloff is.
  12. Injured his ankle a while ago. He was taken out of the second game of the doubleheader in Anaheim.
  13. The Twins with only one lineup change (La Tortuga for Garv Sauce) as they face Bieber. It looks like Cleveland has only one change (center field), as well. Don't expect ten runs from the Twins today, but I'd like to see a good effort versus one of the best starters in MLB.
  14. Kyle Gibson looks like he will improve 4-0 with a 2.24 ERA for the Rangers. The Rangers should have a worse record than the Twins, but Gibson has been stellar since Opening Day. It's early yet, but Kyle might represent the team in the All-Star game.
  15. Danny Santana homered in his first game as a Red Sox. Also, old friend Martín Pérez now has a 2-2 record and 3.55 ERA in 45+ innings for Boston.
  16. With Ian Anderson, you must be Living in the Past.
  17. Not concerned yet, but it seems that Larnach has a problem with pitches on the outer half of the plate. All of the hits I've seen from him have been pulled and the pitches were middle in.
  18. Personally I want to see Kirilloff and Larnach get more at-bats no matter what the score.
