  1. Just tuning in....Santana has taken Jose deep TWICE? Holy moly
  2. Gore was on KC's postseason roster in both 2014 and 2015. He played in 9 games and never got an AB. It can be done usefully without giving a black hole at the plate like that AB's. IF they could roster him until September, it would be an awfully nice weapon to have.
  3. Speed is just more than stealing bases though. Just putting a guy with his kind of speed at 2nd base in a late situation over a station to station guy like Cruz, Sano, Cron could be the difference in a late game.
  4. Hamilton would fill a niche for the Twins. The Royals aren't competing, he's a FA at the end of the season and when you only win once or twice a week, how often do you need late inning speed and defensive replacement? The Royals are probably better off auditioning guys for the future than give time to a guy who is gone at the end of the year anyways.
  5. Indians down to their final out
  6. Yep. He avoids hard contact for the most part, but throws a lot of balls. In today's game he is a 5-6 inning pitcher almost everytime out.
  7. When the Twins hit homers I think, yes.
  8. I think he would be a great September addition if they could roster him until then. Elite speed and above average defense. I'd sure like seeing him on 2nd in the 9th inning of a tie game rather than Cron.
  9. With the amount of time the hot new toys are overpaid and then preform under expectations maybe that's an OKAY thing. How many of us would be okay with Bryce Harper on the roster with what he is going to be owed with the numbers he is putting up?
  10. Especially considering on paper this team going into the offseason will be a good deal stronger than what was in place last season.
  11. Holy hot take batman. This team is on pace to win more games than any Minnesota Twins team in 49 years. If that is the biggest botch job by a front office, you must be use to a lot of winning baseball. You want to fire the staff and front office? At least wait until the season is over to call incompetence. They are in 1st place with 42 games to play and on pace to win 98 games. I get some people want to hit the panic button, but good lord people.
  12. I don't think anyone is running him out of town, but it would be nice to have that player who raked in the 1st half and earned an AS game start. Since he hit his high water mark BA of .341 on June 12, he's played in 52 games where the Twins have gone 26-26, his triple slash line is .242/.307/.383, good for an OPS of .690. Not to mention he's made 6 errors in 11 games in August, and the one yesterday was extremely costly. The Twins could really, really use him to turn it around for the home stretch.
  13. So you think Romo should have been pulled after two weak ground balls because both guys got on?
  14. Error, seeing eye single and a HR. Defense HAS to help out.
  15. Mmmmmm Bogaerts and Devers, keep it up Sox!
  16. They needed 9 outs and Harper had given up earned runs in 1 of his last 9 appearances. The notion and hindsight that everyone knew he was going to give up runs is so overblown.
  17. Unless I missed something, you completely forgot Yordan Alvarez for the Astros, the guy is downright raking. I love Arraez, but compare the two. Arraez: 202 PA, .350/.421/.446 Alvarez: 197 PA, .355/.431/.733!!!
  18. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  19. Twins are 2 games over .500 since June 2nd, fwiw.
