  1. Bitch all you want about the Astros. 19 hits today, 11 on friday, (only 5 against Berrios). They can hit without the help.
  2. This pitching staff is giving me forearm tightness.
  3. I knew it when he was signed. All that followed is just proof. The FO just has a hard time admitting it when they are so wrong.
  4. It seems so irresponsible that Dobnak, Colome, and Shoemaker are even still on this team. At this point, any pitcher would seem to have more worth. I feel so respectful.
  5. Shoemaker still praying on the field, before he starts pitching. Good luck with that. Seems nothing is listening.
  6. Using Steely Dan for distraction, "with making the team healthier being out of his hands" and putting it into their hands..... seems that the alternate focus will not be benefical for baseball.
  7. The thing that I noticed that I hope Ober changes, is the meatball he likes to throw on the first pitch to each batter. By the 5th inning, they all were waiting for it, they all swung (Maldonado deep fly to center, Altuve home run - barely - to left, Brantley fouled it off, Bregman grounded out) except Alvarez, and Altuve didn't miss it, and knew it was coming by that point in the game.
  8. Sometimes there are novels and sometimes short stories. Dobnak was a short story. They tried to stretch it into a novel.
  9. .... and 10 earned runs after 2, and Gardenhire still brought him out for the 3rd.......... just what is the point here? Trying to give him confidence? Right.
  10. Buxton may as well be playing in the show. His homers and play is being wasted in AAA.
  11. The Twins need to go on a 10-12 game winning streak. Not win series' now. Sweep. If not, forget about it. Since they tanked after the influx of hysteria after the 4 runs in 5 pitches comeback and 9th inning walk off against the Yankees and Chapman, I don't see it happening. The pitching staff wasted 4 homers and Baldelli let Shoemaker be the new Colome. I don't see it happening.
  12. Baldelli is decimating what pen we have with the way he uses them. He torches the pen by removing starters when they are doing well with low pitch counts. Lost in space.
  13. What a waste of 4 homers. This pitching staff needs to find some pride. What a bunch of...............
  14. Baldelli little talk makes me vomit. "Shoe is ready. He'll be ready tomorrow"..... That makes it worse. I think his brain is shrinking. Alcala overused. Doughboy Duffey creates his own problems. Rogers is wasted for only 3 pitches and one batter. So Baldelli goes to the Shoe on the wrong foot late inning too many innings. How about that turning point at the end of last nights game. Some turning point. Especially with Baldelli making the decisions during the game.
  15. Dick is gonna really wear out last night's ending.
  16. Jeffers closed his eyes on strike three swinging. Really hard to hit it with your eyes closed.
  17. Get in the game Kirilloff. That was over a foot outside. You swung at the two balls and took the strike.
  18. 4 runs on the last 5 pitches. That was some kind of fun.
  19. Yup. As I expected. $$ You would side with the "most". $$ Pohlad's were the wealthiest owner, maybe they still are. $$ They are free to make whatever choices they want, and they are familiar ones.
  20. Back to back games in relief? I don't mind them bringing him in yesterday for multiple innings. But yesterday? and back to back days. Just irresponsible in my opinion.
  21. I disagree. Some businessmen will. Some won't. Most won't. Nobody owns a MLB franchise as their first source of income (or at least, they shouldn't). It is a glorified hobby. Sure, some, and even most, businessmen owners will treat it solely as a business. But the best owners, and the most human owners, know it is a side gig, and one to treat the players well and even lose a bit of the unneeded millions and billions of excess money and enjoy life and spend the rewards that they acheived while they are alive, and HAVE SOME FUN. Life is not always about not operating at a net loss. Money changes everything, though, and to some, it just makes them more greedy. I have known some very unhappy very ultra-rich people. Pohlads could be having a lot more fun than they are having with the Twins, and it wouldn't hurt a soul, including them.
  22. Dobnak. The Falvey/Levine building block of the Twins pitching staff.
  23. Simmons another error tonight, this time just not stepping on second on the DP. Is that 6 errors now (4 total in the game, Pineda, Polanco, Astudillo, and the defensive wizard not focusing, Simmons)
