    Polanco has mastered the charge and flip on slowly hit grounders. Other throws have been more of a challenge. I still think his future is elsewhere than shortstop, especially if Lewis is all that he's supposed to be. With subpar defenders at each and every spot in the infield (Sanó, Polanco, Arraez, Cron), it is hard to see a way that defense will improve dramatically. However, I think fatigue is an issue with Polanco. I don't think that using Adrianza at short frequently in the near future is a bad idea. Addressing defensive deficiencies in the off-season should be a must.

    The minor league report says that Devin Smeltzer has been optioned back to Triple A. It would seem that the Twins will add a pitcher to the active roster, but which one? My best guess is Lewis Thorpe, who has worked out of the bullpen for the Twins, is left handed and who has been optioned for more than ten day (eligible to be recalled).

    Smeltzer just needed to get that first easy out.

    Enjoy the splinters Jonathan. The kid isn't coming out of the lineup.

    Definitely a problem with TD. I couldn't get on the site this afternoon and now it takes a looong time for a post to be completed.

    The Rangers are within a big hit of making this too interesting (second inning in a row). Some expert baserunning, as well.
  7. stringer bell
    4-4 for Marwin. Good game for him.
  8. stringer bell
    Big Mike with less than great hops.
  9. stringer bell
    Looks like Eddie was glad to see Santana!
  10. stringer bell
    Keep adding on boys. Into the bullpen early!
  11. stringer bell
    Willians Austudillo has started his rehab in Pensacola. First AB--home run!
  12. stringer bell
    Which second baseman would you want, Odor or Schoop?
  13. stringer bell
    Pence makes me nervous.
  14. stringer bell
    Pitchers duel in Arlington?
  15. stringer bell
    Logan Morrison also back in the bigs, He is up with the Phillies.

    The other team that got multiple relievers is Washington. We see them later this year.

    In the past two weeks, we've seen Rogers get hit for a four-spot vs. the Indians, Dyson get knocked around twice and Romo dinged for a three-run homer and a long solo homer. While it is unfortunate that it occurred, it is equally to be expected. All three are good major league pitchers, but they aren't unhittable. May was impressive in his inning yesterday. What the Twins need more than anything for their bullpen is for the starters to go six or more innings. Until yesterday, Texas was struggling, but they scored seven runs yesterday.

    Add in that he is freshly off the Injured List and I would say "no chance".
  19. stringer bell
    I'll say this, the Twins absolutely handled Yelich and only were able to win 2 of 4 vs. the Brewers. That is a waste.
  20. stringer bell
    I believe the 28-man rule is next year. Wikipedia agrees with me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_rosters
  21. stringer bell
    I’d argue that Polanco is a top-half SS, but since sometime in May, he hasn’t been an elite player.
  22. stringer bell
    This is going to be a four hour game.
  23. stringer bell
    Bases loaded. Uh oh.
  24. stringer bell
    This opens a spot. Ian Miller (speedy OF) or O’Rourke (LOOGy) added to the 25-man in September. I think both will see action in September.

    Three true outcomes inning
