  1. 8 out of 12. (all getting charged to his teammates) .Hildenberger has let in 5, but he is 5 of 19 and 26.3% inherited runners scored, which is not bad (except, perhaps, the reality of it in the games he lets them score). But Hildenberger is on the rise and the ERA has been climbing steadily lately.
  2. At least De Jong is blowing games in the minors instead of the Majors, eh? Is Rooker out indefinitely? Not much time in the lineup after striking out 28 of 56 (50%) at bats.
  3. One year with option for me. Put Kimbrel certainly has other ideas. Kimbrel looked horrible in the World Series and most of the playoffs. Things can turn quick. Of course, the bidding could ramp up quickly with the draft compensation gone. The worm seems to have turned for the long term top relievers. They would be smart to bet on themselves, and go with 1 to 3 years at a high average annual salary. Wasting a year by sitting is not productive and his age. I would really like to see him pitch for the Twins, somehow, though.
  4. Home field advantage tie breaker!
  5. About a month away from Kimbrel available with no draft pick compensation.
  6. Good move. The Dodgers use the IL very effectively to recyle pitcers with no options........... I am glad to see the Twins tap in......
  7. May's neck is disappearing. Looks like he has been hitting the buffet.
  8. 3 chances coming up in Toronto after the 3 at Yankee Stadium.
  9. 50 degrees and a Canadian thinks it's cold and needs gloves? What a p..........
  10. Did Morneau put on batting gloves to mime the swing bit?.... or does he wear batting gloves in the booth?
  11. The Twins have 13 games against KC, Detroit, and the White Sox to end the year with. If they are in a battle for division or wild card....... that should be a welcome stretch.
  12. Rosario was batting .300 at the end of the game 12 days ago. I hope his cold spell is finished soon. Still is tagging the ball........
  13. I can't believe Hinch left Peacock in that long.
  14. Great win! I sure hope that Gonzalez can get a couple hits Thursday. It would be tough to go 0-fer Houston (currently 0-18 with 6 Ks and one walk). Rosario too.... he is sure streaky. 11 days ago he was hitting .300 (now .231).Time to get amped up for the Yankees.
  15. I hate when defense becomes indifferent, always. If nothing else, it is good practice to see if you can throw him out! What's the point of playing to not play? I mean, what else have they got to do on the field. Just watch?
  16. The boys just look like the don't have confidence against the good teams. The are just mentally not in the game in the same way.
  17. Odd photo of Sano. Must be loading up to swing. He doesn't look so trim in that pic.
  18. Harper inherited 3 more runners in his "pitched well short stint", and let them all score. He is now 8 inherited scored out of 12 for the season. That's not what I consider relief. He entered the game with the bases loaded with one out. A double play grounder and the inning is over. A freaky 40 foot infield single that Schoop could have probably converted into an out but Cron steps in front and bobbles (but the run would have scored on the out anyway, and the runner from second would have advanced to third), a sac fly, and then Polanco can't make an easy throw to first with plenty of time......... goofy circumstances, but 3/3 inherted runners score. Mejia ..... finishes his disaster with 7 pitches that weren't even close to the zone. I don't know what people see in him. I don't see the "stuff". But I do notice the results. Folks kept talking how Pineda would be a vital part of the new rotation. And then were looking forward to Magill's return. Hopefully, Perez keeps the Twins in the game, and the A team relief can pitch to give us a chance to win on ESPN tomorrow.
  19. Yesterday seems like a looooooooooooonnnngggggggg time ago. No Singing from the Fat Guy(s). That was brutal. 3 hits in both games from the offense, and the tonage on the mound today. It didn't go well for the B team pitching. Plus, two errors. When this team doesn't want to stay in the game, they don't mess around.
  20. If you want to lament.... Rosario is at .238. 12 Ks today. That meets expectation. Yesterday was a long time ago......
  21. Josh James.... now there's a pitcher the Twins would sign.....
  22. No relief from Harper.... 3 more Inherited runners scored. is that 8 out of 12 now for the year?
  23. Hildenberger and Harper. Gimmic pitchers.
  24. Not is my opinion. A few good outings. Some always say they love his stuff. I don't get it. There has been a bunch of poundage on the mound today for the Twins.
