    Nice win Twins against an injury riddled team. Let's go for the sweep this weekend!
  2. Whitey333
    The Twins were right in sending him down to St. Paul. He has looked totally lost at the plate for a long time. He needs to stay there for an extended period not for just a couple of weeks. He seems to worry about his mechanics on each pitch. Nothing seems smooth and natural. Maybe he's got information overload from so many people telling him so many things, sometimes conflicting things. Maybe he should ignore them all for a time and just be himself.

    Just another "can't miss" prospects on the injured list multiple times. Big deal. What's new?
  4. Whitey333
    Contending team? Mainly because they play in a terrible division. They certainly are not serious contenders in the overall scheme of things. I admit to this point they have played better than I thought. It's fun watching them when they play decent baseball. They have a long way to go to join the better teams

    What about Buxton? Why didn't they put him the dl instead of not being able to use his roster spot? Jeffers im sure will not be with the Twins next year. Maybe not even the end of this year.

    Proving players hit in bad luck is dicey and also somewhat suggestive. Plus it's a good excuse for poor performances. Poor free agent signings may be a better answer.

    Sometimes I think Lewis keeps getting his head filled with so much that it's hard to concentrate. So many different coaches telling him how to do things. Perhaps if he just said " screw them" and just hit like he used to and not worry about all the mechanics and stuff idk. Something has to change though.

    E-Rod on injured list again!! Walker Jenkins on injured list again!! They are on the injured list more than they play. So jow do you count on either of them if they can't stay on the field?
  9. Whitey333
    They sure are showing a ton of patience with Wallner. And Lewis too for that matter. SWR same thing. It's rapidly approaching time to move on from these players.
  10. Whitey333
    I won't feel better until they dump some of the dead weight in the bullpen. I'd rather have younger guys Pitching with at least some potential than these retread old timers trying to hang on. But our new closer after less than 2 innings? Laughable.
  11. Whitey333
    Typical strange move by Twins. Funderburk isn't perfect but statistically was the third best option. And while sending down Funderburk is being justified by some my opinion is it would have been more justified to release Garcia, Bandai, or even Topa that statistically keep proving they don't belong here and why other teams didn't want them.
  12. Whitey333
    Why in the world did tge Twins bring up lefty reliever Rojas and send fellow lefty Funderburk down on Sunday. Funderburke was one of the few guys in the bullpen doing fairly well. They sure had other candidates to send down or DFA. Big slap in the face to Funderburke. Such a messed up organization.
  13. Whitey333
    Need we say anymore? Sending down Klein and keeping stiffs like Bands and Garcia shows how totally ineptitude this so-called organization is!
  14. Whitey333
    Sending down Klein to keep Garcia shows how ineptitude this organization is.
  15. Whitey333
    Your article commented about how the Twins played so poorly against a bad team. That's a very good point. So to is the fact that the Twins are a bad team. Why sugar coat it? With Woods-Richardson Pitching on Thursday afternoon the chance of winning woukd seem low.
  16. Whitey333
    Only 2.5 games out? Big deal. Thus is not a major league baseball team. Way too many holes and what ifs. Ive been supporting a Ryan trade and Lopez and Jeffers for several months? Why? Because the Twins are a team stuck in the mud and going nowhere. Tgey should have traded both Ryan and Lopez when they had the chance. They could have gotten decent value. Now Lopez will bring you very little after he recovers from Tommy John surgery. Ryan has already had a few injuries. They blew their chance months ago with a false provado of contending. The other day there was only 3 of the 15 American League teams with a record over 500. That will change as the pretenders are separated from the real contenders. The Twins real contenders? Who among us watches them and thinks they are contenders? They have some promising players but the are not contenders in 2026.
  17. Whitey333
    Some of these current "can't miss" prospects seem to divide their time between the playing field and injury list. It never seems to end. We already have a roster with "can't miss" on their resume' languishing on the 26 man.
  18. Whitey333
    Very good article. Bottom line is the Twins bullpen is, as predicted, a mess and looks to stay that way.
  19. Whitey333
    When are we going to give more serious discussion about Royce Lewis? I'm sorry but he has turned into a flop. If he doesn't get and stay hot he needs to go. Wallner? They have been very patient with him. He's a strikeout machine, hits for a sub 200 average and produces very little. Both he and Lewis look totally lost at the plate and not good in the field either.
  20. Whitey333
    Twins are 2-11 in last 13 games. Enough said.
  21. Whitey333
    It may go down as one of the worst trades Twins have ever made.
  22. Whitey333
    1-9 last 10 games and playing listless baseball. Not unexpected.
  23. Whitey333
    There are a lot of times I miss the days of starting pitchers having complete games. Pitchers were expected to pitch the whole game. If they didn't go at least 7 innings it was considered a failed performance. Blyleven had 60 career shutouts.
  24. Whitey333
    Lewis continues to struggle offensively and defensively. Wallner is getting unwatchable. He can't hit.
  25. Whitey333
    I know there is a lot of negativity around Larnach and I understand that to a degree. But this lefty on lefty platooning involving him is interesting. They platoon him but what about Wallner? Why is he allowed to play regularly? He is an equal opportunity strikeout. He looks bad against both lefties and eighties. Yest he keeps batting against lefties. He surely can't be better than zlarnach against lefties. Can he?
