    Alcala must feel real special and wanted. He gets the call down 13-2. Talk about the ultimate slight.

    Celestino polished? Horrible decisions, horrible execution, and horrible routes. I don't even care what he looks like at the plate. Playing the field is not pitching based. I saw the first two games. If that is polished, the Twins are in more trouble than I thought.

    Dobnak. He represents the long term building block that our FO aparently deems as the future of the pitching staff and what we fans deserve. Fitting. Mediocre (on his best days, at least). Homegrown and not a waiver wire signing or a free agent on the cheap that no one else would sign. He is the perfect representative for the all star nod that rates all stars anyone that has a good couple of months to start a season. Dobnak really doesn't fit that hot start, but that story.... that uber driver back story that the home team seems to rather have than players that are stars. Fits so well with this horrible team. Our all star!

    I also find it comedic that Theilbar strained his groin throwing a 62 mph ephus curveball.

    I mostly disagree. I also acknowledged Simmons "real good ones". But the scoring is atrocious. The official scorers now give hits away like candy to grandchildren. So many errors that all players should get to and touch but don't make the play are scored hits. Same with throwing errors sometimes. Official scorers are charity workers when it comes to scoring and they give far too many hits and don't score the poor defense, and not the other way around. Certainly they include range in that, and don't score them as errors, either, for the rangey players.

    I am amazed that Simmons rates so high defensively this year. I have watched him make more than the 5 errors he actually got officially, and make some real bonehead plays and decisions to go with the real good ones. It is so easy for people to sell out on Cruz with the "has his age finally caught up with him?" Interesting to see he is actually one of the top hitters on the year so far. But carry on with the cheap shots. Everyone has some slump time. If you come out on top even with the slump, you are doing pretty fine.

    Prospect rankings? Center fielder of the future? So much overrating and home team blindness. Do these guys know how to use they voices? Their loud voices? How does something like that even happen ..... in even college ball or minor league ball? I hate this team.

    Just keep holding on to Thorpe and dreaming. SMH.

    Management is paying him more, by far, than any of the young "core" that they have signed. That is the ultimate sign of not ignoring him. Right now it is totally wasted money.

    This is getting obtuse. It is currently 60' 6". It will be moved one foot back to 61' 6". https://www.wtkr.com/sports/mlb-will-have-minor-league-experiment-with-moving-back-mound#:~:text=MLB will experiment with a,feet%2C 6 inches starting Aug.

    This just up at MLBTradeRumors: "Twins catcher Mitch Garver exited last night’s game after taking a foul tip from the bat of Trey Mancini to the groin, and while the initial diagnosis was only a contusion, additional tests provided a more concerning outlook. Garver announced on his Instagram story that he underwent surgery after undergoing ultrasound imaging at the emergency room. Thankfully, Garver adds that he is “recovering well,” but the mere fact that surgery was required likely points to an absence of some note." And he had just heated up to 2019 Garver this last month.... Still no mention about whether he was wearing a cup or not. He had to be, right?

    It's not baseball, it's HBO!

    LOSERS! Back to the cellar.
  14. h2oface
    Damn. That would have tied it up if fair.
  15. h2oface
    Damn. That was the "mistake" to take out of the park.
  16. h2oface
    Looking like back in the Central Cellar..........
  17. h2oface
    And of course Donaldson takes the first pitch meat "mistake" for a called strike.
  18. h2oface
    Alright, boys. Just need an easy 4 spot here. Even 3 would do for the inning... maybe.
  19. h2oface
    Has Astudillo thrown anyone out stealing bases in the show?
  20. h2oface
    Thinking about Garver, of course......
  21. h2oface
    Don't catchers wear cups anymore?
  22. h2oface
    Simmons and Donaldson are so disappointing. Simmons "baseball IQ" seems to have been left in LA.
  23. h2oface
    WOWZER!
  24. h2oface
    Swinging at another ball 4. Not even close.
  25. h2oface
    What team would still be putting Sano in the lineup but these Twins?
