    Gordon! Big Fly!

    Man, you know that slider is coming, but Pleasac throws it well.
  3. SwainZag
    Some runs would be nice, this inning boys?

    We are going to blame Pagan? In the 9th inning the Twins needed 1 run to win the game. Leadoff man gets on, they don't score. In the 10th they need 1 run to win the game, they have a man on 2nd and no outs.....no score. In the 11th, they need 1 run to tie the game, runner on 2nd with no outs. They don't score. We can rag on the bullpen all day, but in the end the offense did not come through with ample opportunities tonight.

    I don't think he needs to fired, but man......I don't care if Correa is up. Move the runners up.
  6. SwainZag
    3 straight innings with a runner on 1st or 2nd with zero outs where a hit wins/extends the game..... and zero bunts. Zero runners moved over. Zero runs.

    Would it have mattered? Twins were down when the bullpen came in and never scored again. Not sure how the 1 run would have held up if Archer would have thrown a CG.

    Miranda was always a swing first guy and never took many walks, but I am more surprised by his K rate in the majors. Not surprised it's up over AAA, but going from 14 to 24% is a big uptick. I wouldn't be that surprised if he goes down for Alex.

    Unless the Twins fall heavily out of contention in the next 6 weeks, the idea of even dangling Correa to me is preposterous. A new topic being posted seemingly every week on the same topic is just crazy to me. I really believe there are too many people who believe a team either need to A) Go all out to win or b) rebuild. There can be in between. This team is heavily talented, yet quite inexperienced. There are glut of 1st and 2nd year players on the roster, and getting a lot of playing time. Signing Correa doesn't mean the FO assumed they would be WS contenders from day 1, just as trading Rodgers did not signal that the same FO didn't think they could win. Ride it out, get into the tournament. A healthy Twins lineup is one of the best in baseball. There's a lot of time for the Twins to get Correa to opt in to Year 2 or re-work a contract. If they can't or don't want to commit, oh well. I'd rather see Correa leave after a year, rather than Twins throwing in the towel in late July when they are still in the hunt to see the postseason.

    He has certainly earned a call back. I think you gotta send down a pitcher and get him into the lineup.

    It's on YouTube TV. https://www.mlb.com/news/how-to-watch-twins-mariners-on-youtube-june-15-2022

    I hope he comes back and finds a way to contribute. Lest we forget he hit 30 HR just last season. To those of you wishing him setbacks and further injury, shame on you.
  13. SwainZag
    Damned if you, damned if you don't.
  14. SwainZag
    Completely gutted for him.
  15. SwainZag
    Carlos starting at DH tonight. Good news not to see Arraez go to the IL, even though hes' out of the lineup tonight.
  16. SwainZag
    I mean if we are being honest....I think everyone knew that...or should have known that. All 4 of those teams are loaded and 3 of them have over $100M more in payroll than the Twins do. If I am counting right, the Twins currently have 10 or 11 players on the IL who would be on their 26 man roster right now, and that's not counting Lewis. It's also about $70M in payroll, which is more than half of the team. I know we are all tired of excuses, but....
  17. SwainZag
    Well, moot point then.
  18. SwainZag
    You are paying Duff 3.8M this year and has been an above average pitcher for 3+ years. I agree he's not good right now, but if I'm not sure you release that player to go with a guy with 9 good innings this year. :shurg:
  19. SwainZag
    You think the Twins planned on using 11 different starters by game 56? That's pretty insane. No team is baseball can go 11 deep no matter how deep their pipeline is.
  20. SwainZag
    Not a good look.
  21. SwainZag
    Cotton wasn't on the 40 man roster, which would have meant waiving someone. Also he's pitched a total of 9.2 innings this season. It's a very small sample size. This guy is 30 and never stuck in the majors. There's a reason for that.
  22. SwainZag
    Have they said anything about Arraez?
  23. SwainZag
    Atta boy Rocco. About time you get pissed and get tossed.
  24. SwainZag
    If the ump didn't job Duffy on strike 2 he wouldn't be forced to put one in the strike zone on 3-1. Meatball either way. But like usual, Yankees come up with clutch hits and the Twins do not.
  25. SwainZag
    I don't mind nibbling to Judge. The Yankees take so much pitches, it's rare for them to chase. I also don't think a close pitch has been called FOR a Twins pitcher yet.
