    Alright let's go Jax, get this done.
  2. SwainZag
    Ideal situation, Duran shuts them down in the 8th. Twins add a couple in the bottom half, bring in Jax/Lopez to finish it out.

    Good Grief, Brock Stewert!

    1/1 so far....

    Ober gets thru 6. 9 outs to go, who we going to see? Either way a couple insurance runs would be delightful.
  6. SwainZag
    Where's the groan emoji?
  7. SwainZag
    68 pitches through 4 for Ober. It would be nice if he could get a quick 5th and pitch into the 7th.

    I watched the replay of that Grand Slam at least 10 times. You could almost feel and see the frustration being lifted off. Sometimes that all you need to turn it around.

    Shorts with a built in liner so you don't wear underwear with them. I imagine the guy who wears them for his "morning hike" and then later on his "bike ride to the bar" and never wanting to take them off smells ripe at best. No thanks.
  10. SwainZag
    Well.....not ideal
  11. SwainZag
    Can't hang sliders like that Bailey

    Post wasn't aimed at you, just in general, but I understand your goal of the post.
  13. SwainZag
    Savage.

    If we could quit beating a dead horse about the following topics I would love it: A) Buxton not playing CF. B) Kepler not playing/being off the team C) Pagan being cut I feel like 60 percent or more of all topics/posts contain one of these. I get it. Most people think one of these should happen, but until then.......can we use our post power for other things? There's a lot of Twins happening that doesn't involve beating one of these topics further into the ground.

    I'm not sure anyone here understands how good Devin Williams has been. Before today he had allowed 1 run this season. A solo HR by Thairo Estrada in a 5 run game in early May. Other than that, the guy had been virtually unhittable. 8 hits in 21.2 innings. 1 ER, 1 HR, 30 K's and an ERA of 0.42. Literally in almost every sense of the word, the best reliever in the game. Tonight.... the Twins went 3/3, 3 hits, 1 BB, 2 HR and 0 K's. 2023 signature moment? I sure hope so.

    I know it's the 3rd inning, but I'm 100% bunting with my 9 hitter if I'm Milwaukee in that situation.
  18. SwainZag
    Agreed. Though Burnes's cutter* to lefties of a very nasty pitch.
  19. SwainZag
    While I don't especially love Solano's glove at 1B, I would much rather see it there than at 2B. Welcome back Joey, let's hope he can carry over some of that power he has been showing in St. Paul this week.

    Are we really going to call Moncada, Anderson and Binentendi front line talent? Moncada is 28, and yes he has been injured quite frequently, but in this last 2 seasons in 576 PA he has a line of: 15 HR, 64 RBI to go along with a triple slash line of .217/.275/.358. Good for an OPS+ of 77. For those curious, Mr. Kepler, who is only 2 years older, has 603 PA in the same time period with 16 HR, 61 RBI to go along with a triple slash line of .217/.304/.355 for an OPS+ of 88. Benintendi has been all but average with zero power and in line to make $17 per year for the next 4 years. Larnach has a better OPS+ than he does. Tim Anderson is 30 and his bat has declined now for the 3rd year in a row. His power he once did have seems to be gone, with his slugging down to .311 this year. Robert, Vaughn and Jimenez are nice players but even with the Twins stars struggling in the early months, they have still scored more runs than the White Sox have in less games. I would say pretty confidently that Correa, Buxton, Polanco, Lewis and Kiriloff make up a better foundation than the Sox have.

    I would rather make the playoffs and have a shot at winning than not make it. Winning the division gets you in the tournament.
  22. SwainZag
    I really don't think we will truly now what kind of team this is until near the trade deadline. The Twins open the 2nd half with 19 games in a row with teams currently under .500, and the 2nd half of the schedule is considerably easier than the 1st.
  23. SwainZag
    Only 4 K's in 4.2 innings against the top strikeout pitcher in the AL.
  24. SwainZag
    Would be nice to run Gausman this inning
  25. SwainZag
    Couldn't really ask for a better start than 4 runs and forcing Gausman to throw 36 first inning pitches. Let's go!
