  1. The power hitting keystone combo.
  2. Kinda makes up for the K in the first.
  3. Sano called out on strike five. Of course, when a guy exhibits such lack of control, he isn't going to get many corners.
  4. It looks to me like hot-hitting Escobar has gone missing.
  5. Baseball note: Suzuki is in the starting lineup tonight. He has had a less-than-productive season hitting and has problems throwing out base stealers, but is damn tough. I thought he was done for the season. Give it up for one tough Hawaiian!
  6. Turner was in the organization on August 31st, so he could be added.
  7. Way back this spring, I thought that Turner was a standout behind the plate, compared to any other catcher in the organization. Oftentimes defensive reputations are exaggerated, but Turner has very good defensive tools. I think Turner will get a look with the Twins at some point next year. If Suzuki is unavailable for more than a day or two, he probably would be recalled so that the Twins could pinch-hit for both Herrmann and Fryer.
  8. I think there's a chance for both Kepler and Polanco.
  9. I wanted Berrios up, but in looking at his season this year, he wasn't really dominant until the end of the season. By then, he had worked a lot of innings. It's sort of a Catch-22--the very innings that showed he was ready for the next level in the end prevented him from being promoted.
  10. It wasn't Walker that beat Texas before Felix, it was Vidal Nuno. Secondly, it seems to me that road non-contenders in September seem to roll over pretty often. Texas plays two teams that are out of it on their homestand, and I'll be surprised if either team wins more than one game in Arlington.
  11. Yes, they do! If Texas keeps winning they pass the Astros. It is guaranteed that one of the two West Division teams will lose more games than the Twins have lost at this point.
  12. Remember one of Houston or Texas is going to lose in each of the seven games that they play against each other in their remaining schedules. The schedule for the Twins gets easier now, but they have to play their best baseball. Santana, Milone, Gibson vs the Sox.
  13. I just checked the Chattanooga playoff game and the Lookouts were down to their final out. Two on and Max Kepler, who struggled the last couple weeks of the regular season, up as Chattanooga's last hope. The runners advanced on a wild pitch and Kepler singled them in. Final 4-3 Lookouts!
  14. I would like to see Dozier step up and carry the club. He's been in the doldrums for a while and he's a good player who still is able to help the club in the field, on the bases and with the bat. Mauer still might have a white-hot week or two in him, as well.
  15. Had 'em all the way! It's been fun. G'night.
  16. Same place he missed strike three to Morales.
  17. It's not a bruise, either.
  18. It's NOT a chip shot, it's a wedge!
  19. Well, Eddie has played a lot of infield.
  20. Annnnnd we're back from the brink.
  21. You just know what the umps will do.
