  1. Best bullpen effort all year!
  2. Torii really has had a good game.
  3. I'm not a big fan of Suzuki, but he's a tough hombre.
  4. Well, the heart of the order didn't cover itself with glory.
  5. Mauer needs to pick up his teammate right now.
  6. Buxton just can't break into the RBI category.
  7. That was quick. How many homers have in a row have the Twins allowed with runners on?
  8. I thought Nuñez was struck out about four times.
  9. Tight zone. Milone likes to get a couple inches off the black.
  10. A few more people at Camden Yards tonight.
  11. What is left at Chattanooga looks to me like the laboratory for utility and role players. Michael and Goodrum, for sure, look like utility guys who could make the majors. Turner is a guy whose glove (mitt!) should get him to the majors despite a sluggish bat. Harrison and Walker could peak as bench or right handed platoon partners. Polanco might end up in a utility role, as well.
  12. For "M", famed character and bug-eater Mike Maksudian.
  13. With Duffey's success in his last two starts, does this change anyone's opinions about going with him (and May) over Berrios? Bringing up Berrios for a single start still doesn't make sense to me. However, what happened with May has undoubtedly cost the team.
  14. Escobar is a switch hitter, has most of his power right handed, but his BA is higher this year as a lefty. Last year, Escobar was better in every respect as a right handed hitter, this year different story.
  15. Time for May to get some work (ducks).
  16. As a matter of fact, everyone in the lineup under the age of 40 has raised their average. At the rate this is going, Hunter might get that chance.
  17. I have been impressed with Eddie Rosario since the AFL season. He's done a lot of things right since being recalled by the Twins in May. He's had a nice assortment of extra base hits, beat out enough bunts and rollers to avoid a slump, played well in the field, run the bases aggressively and risen to the occasion in key situations quite often. Many have compared his season to the 2014 season for Danny Santana. Everything I wrote about Rosario could be said about Santana in 2014, with the possible exception of good defense. The BABIP has been good for Eddie, but not crazy good like the number put up by Santana last year. Do you, the TD faithful, think Rosario will fade similar to the fate that befell Santana? Why or why not?
  18. Must be getting tired. I saw one extra vowel in the word "pens".
  19. Looking again at Kepler's stats, this is well beyond mastery. It is domination. He is well ahead in all three legs of the saber triple crown--OBP, Slugging and OPS--and is close to leading all of AA in all three categories. I don't remember another Twins farmhand so dominant in the high minors. He has actually stepped up since Buxton and Sano left (Polanco also was gone for about a month). The guy deserves promotion to the majors as a reward for this season. He has to be considered for regular play in 2016.
  20. B-Well somebody probably named #28, the Hall-of-Famer, so Bud Bulling.
