  1. Spycake is good. Do you guys know him personally? I'm asking because some people's lives aren't at the point where they can add the commitment of being a moderator. As for Bighat, I've found him disagreeable a couple of times, certainly not a disqualifier, but I think others have been better suited to moderating, such as Don Walcott.
  2. Scouting Report from today: "Berríos-Susceptible to big inning when given a 15-run lead".
  3. Tough crowd all of a sudden. I'm sure Berríos will not be happy with his performance tonight.
  4. Nowadays one expects a bouncer over the pitcher's head to be fielded by the overshifted infielder.
  5. Two key stats for the Twins team: they are second in the AL in runs scored (251) despite playing 1+ games less than Houston. They are second in homers to Seattle, but the Mariners have played four more games than the Twins. The Twins are averaging the most homers per game for any AL team, but are second in most runs per game to Texas.
  6. Twins have had four batters hit three times and Crawford and Smith haven't batted yet for the Mariners.
  7. I witnessed two such games today, that my grandson was involved in.
  8. Not that it will happen in this at-bat, but who will hit the Twins' first grand slam in 2019?
  9. González has an OPS of .864 vs. LH pitching and a .904 OPS in the month of May.
  10. Quick introduction for the third game of four in the Twins @ Seattle series. The Twins are now 29-15 (14-7 on the road) and lead the AL Central by 5 games. After a 13-2 start, Seattle has fallen below .500. These are two of the leading home run hitting teams in MLB. José Berríos vs. Wade LeBlanc.

  11. The 2001 had several players break out who had never broken out before. In particular Guzman and Mienkiewicz were far better offensive performers. The team was young across the board. The 2019 team has a much more veteran cast. I like the chances that the current lineup sustains much of what they've started. I am not sure the pitching staff can continue to perform at the high level they've been at most of the year.
  12. I think the offense is top quarter of MLB. Run suppression has been unexpectedly good, but I don’t see much depth. The team need to augment their pitching by the deadline, because we know injuries and ineffectiveness will happen. They will need to pitch with the very best to be the very best. The division is there for the taking.
  13. Adrianza and Kepler starting today? I guess that kind of has worked out so far! Good night, game threaders, bring a W home.
  14. Just about every player has had a period of time where they didn't look good at the plate, but it really hasn't slowed the team production. Right now, it is Schoop. Let's hope he gets on track soon.
