    Don't worry, Cole Sands is warming.

    With the upcoming end of the Acala, Topa and SWR chapters of Twins history approaching, it makes me wonder if the general managers who fleeced the Twins FO on these trades feel any remorse or guilt for taking advantage of the Twins incompetence. Most likely not, but surely, they feel some pity.
  3. William K Johnson
    He should see a lot of late inning defensive action as both Larnac and Wallmer leave a lot to be desired defensively.
  4. William K Johnson
    Anyone know how you get that Heilman guy out? A backup catcher batting over .400
  5. William K Johnson
    I still think that Trevor Larnac needs to learn how to play first base.
  6. William K Johnson
    Kinda of confused on why Larnac was not the first sub in right field, then when he got on base Kiersey could have ran and stayed in defensively. It seemed like we switched them in the wrong order.

    The non-call on strike three to Yelich seemed to unnerve Matthews. He will have to get used to that, as major league umpires are terrible at ball and strike calls.

    The problem here isn't third, it's second base. I was hoping that once Lewis returned, he could play third and move Lee to second. If you DH Lewis, what do you do with Larnach when Wallner returns? Maybe Castro when he gets back. But please, no more Julien. And I agree with an earlier post that Lewis has never been hurt fielding the ball, all of his injuries have come running bases.

    Contributions from a second baseman, who would have thunk it!! Seattle gets solid contribution from their second baseman every game. Just saying. In fact, he led off the ninth with a double and scored what proved to be the winning run in the top of the ninth.

    Give me Jeffers any day over Vasquez
  11. William K Johnson
    But how would you justify the $10 mil contract then?
  12. William K Johnson
    At what point does Julien enter the conversation?
  13. William K Johnson
    11 runs with Bader, Julien, Gasper and Bride in the lineup. Who would have thought it?
  14. William K Johnson
    How many times did they swing at ball four?
  15. William K Johnson
    Hate to play devil's advocate, but the White Sox are terrible, has Cole Sands ever left an inherited runner on base, Keaschall's error at second looked awful and Bader is showing some regression. Outside of that, good win.
  16. William K Johnson
    A couple of observations; - Really miss Santana's glove at first. Infielders need to be aware that throwing the ball into the dirt to first is now risky. - Why didn't Keaschall play second? - We all have been around this game long enough to know that when a reliever goes south, they go south. Apparently, Rocco does not know that. - Is Brock Stewart ready yet?

    Lee can play third, moving Castro to second. However, that is the least of our problems. Starting pitching has been great, bullpen up and down, but the offense is as bad as I can recall. Castro and France are the only two hitters doing anything. Buxton, Correa, Larnac and Wallner appear overmatched at the plate right now. I cringe when I see a lineup with both Gasper and Valazquez in it. Two outs for sure each time through the lineup. There is an old saying in baseball, you don't win pennants in April but you can sure lose them. By the time this team gets righted, the train might have left the station.

    Julien continues to show why he does not belong on a major league roster. Runners on first and third, one out and two strikes, he again watches strike three go by. Hey Eddie, if it's close with two strikes go get it.
  19. William K Johnson
    I know it probably does not matter in the grand scheme of things, but McCaughan struck Rogers out on a pitch that a so called "crew chief" missed. They tell us that umpires review game film after each game. If Conroy thought he called a good game, then he needs to look for another occupation. Was at a several spring training games this year and loved the challenge system on balls and strikes.
  20. William K Johnson
    Two hits and one of those was a dribbler up the third base line. It is time to hire a new hitting coach, oops, we already did that.
  21. William K Johnson
    New year, same Alcala.
  22. William K Johnson
    Where is it written in stone that the DH must be a permanent player? Rotate someone daily depending on the circumstances. I like that option better than watching Julien take strike three on a daily basis.
  23. William K Johnson
    Larnach or Wallner at first?
  24. William K Johnson
    I still like Casto at second, Lewis in left field and Lee at third.
  25. William K Johnson
    Jax needs to be the closer.
