    Buxton not in starting lineup, Lewis hurt again. Twins will lead the league in the wimpiest injury prone players led by a over indulging boring manager.
  2. Whitey333
    Great game by Ryan. Bottom line is just another listless loss. They have now lost 7 of their past 9. Getting tired of Lewis injuries and how people panic when he goes down. My god except for the past week or so he's been invisible for the past year and a half. I doubt Buxton plays sunday since he must have a bruise and wacko Rocco babies these guys so much. I hope they win Sunday but idk

    Pathetic performance again today. But at least Rocco thinks they are playing ok. Unbelievable.

    Great win Twins. We need to beat the rain and the Rangers on Thursday. I too get tired of all the mindless information being thrown at us. I like Audra on TwinsTv except she never shuts up. She always talks over the play by play often leaving the viewer missing live action. Plus all the games I watch there seems to be a lot of talk and video going on that is totally unrelated to the game at hand. .

    What Pitching depth. Just because you call someone up from the minors to start games doesn't mean they are good. This Pitching depth needs to actually perform and perform well. Haven't seen a whole lot of that with any consistency.
  6. Whitey333
    Interesting and well researched but just a whiners excuse for Twins play imo.

    Yes he's regressing just like many of the Twins current players. Even some with superstar status. He's almost earned the right to stay longer. But I'm sure he won't stay. He's been fun to watch and more productive than some of the players that will be kept

    If the Twins have all these great prospects that apparently are ready to play in the big show why is the major league team struggling to maintain a 500 club? Most prospects are suspects until they prove otherwise. I hope he makes it but.....

    Do you think Baldelli will even use him? It would be great if he at least gets in one game to make his trip to the bird noteworthy. Tough for a rookie to get called up and never get in the game. Baldelli has done that with several call ups in the past. No class!!

    Twins SHOULD win Sunday against a faltering Blue Jay's pitcher. Plus I'm going to the game. Go Twins. They are what we thought they are just an average or below average team

    Home plate umpiring has been atrocious throughout the league. I've watched a lot of mlb games and almost every game the balls and strike calls are awful. Plus the umps are so arrogant. By the way I fir one, am sick and tired of watch Ty France loaf to first bases when hitting a grounded. He does itbevery game and is inexcusable. As a former manager once said " if you can't run hard to first 3-4 times a game, you shouldn't be playing. Ty France is dogging it.

    Twins out played and out managed by Toronto. But at least we have heard their excuses for the previous two losses. They said the last game with the A's was the result of a long and tiring road trip. It was evident in the early stages of that game that Rocco wasn't interested in being competitive. Another Rocco throw away game. Friday they lamented from the long road trip that Rocco said was successful. 5-5 suc essful? Come on. Three of those wins came against AAA calibre A's. Saturday is important game. Twins need to win against a good team.
  13. Whitey333
    I love Matt Wallner. But let's not over do it. Come on he needs to play more, be more consistent to be compared to some of the heavy hitters you mention. It's absolutely ridiculous. He us good using your small sample size. Let's let him develop more and see. I think he is very important to the success of the team this year. Go Twins.
  14. Whitey333
    Tough game, bad look all around. Another of Roccos throw away game where he appears not to care about winning the game. The excuses are coming to Target field if they lose Friday. They will blame the long road trip. Fact us they got smashed by A's. So what. But they make a 5-5 road trip sound like they won a playoff series. I hate when teams use a fielder to pitch. It makes a total farce of the game. Good thing is they used both Alcal and Funderburk extensively so we won't have to stomach them for a couple of days. I believe Alcala has mo options left so if the Twins dfa him he would probably be picked up. Go Twins!!
  15. Whitey333
    Yes it's way too early to get excited. I hope he does well and has a great career. Fact is prospects are a dime a dozen and are suspects until proven otherwise. The Twins hype these up and almost all of them flame out.
  16. Whitey333
    Nice win Twins. Let's complete the sweep on Thursday. Then we can come home and play a major league team in a major league ballpark. Go Twins!
  17. Whitey333
    N Ice win Twins against a AAA type A's team. A's have now lost 18 of last 19 games and you can see why. But Twins responded well. Twins really should sweep this series. At least take 3 of 4 with Tigers playing white Sox this week. Go Twins!!
  18. Whitey333
    Thanks for the lecture about how Twins fans need to be patient. What a bunch of crock! All of us diehard Twins fans have been patient for many years. It gets old when people get criticized because they are critical of the team. Last year you ( sports writers) lectured us to be patient. You over hyped this team the past few years. Last year they choked the final month and a half. I would imagine you called it a good stretch of baseball. I hope the win the division. We shall see.

    Not surprised about this . The Trump regime and it's radical right agenda is founded on lies, false facts, and hopes and dreams. Much like the Twins season. Pohlads are going to have to come down in price and pay off their own debt if the are really serious about selling the team.
  20. Whitey333
    Great article. The current bullpen usage is not sustainable over the long haul. Yes offense is key but so is pushing starters to pitch at least 6- 7 innings each time out.
  21. Whitey333
    Great win for Twins!! It was unbelievable. Sometimes it's nice to have insomnia!!
  22. Whitey333
    It's so frustrating. It just never seems to end. It's hard as a Twins fan these past few years to get excited about these can't miss prospects.
  23. Whitey333
    Sometimes I wonder if hitters are are just plain being inundated with too much information. Metric gone wild. Perhaps some players, even Royce Lewis, get information overload. Thinking too much about metrics and how to hit when maybe he should just hit. Remember what made him a hitter and a major league player and a good hitter. Just hit Royce! You can do it. Just unclog your mind with all the info you may be receiving. Just relax, hit, you can do it. Not hitting due to luck? That's ridiculous. BTW perhaps the writer of the article should be the hitting coach of the Twins. He certainly seems to have all the answers. Or at least he thinks he does.
  24. Whitey333
    Nice article although nothing new. My question has always been is the 425 million in debt due solely to finance baseball related expenses? Or is the debt from borrowing from the Twins to support the other Pohlad businesses or both? My feeling is if it is to just pay for the Twins operations that is scary. Also it begs the question a out why they have t dumped payroll to try to balance the books. Twins are roughly a little, but not much below league average in payroll and still lead the Central division in payroll. I'm surprised they are carrying as much payroll as they are. If they are borrowing from the Twins to support the Pohlad empire that is also scary. Why would any potential owner want to pick up that much debt that may have been used to support Pohlad businesses? I would think the Pohlads only chance to sell is if they pay off their own̈ debt and not expect others to.

    Keep Bride for as long as you can. He has earned it. Kiersey can't hit major league Pitching but can play some defense. I'm losing confidence in Lewis. The I don't do slumps guy has had many slumps since and is looking awful at the plate again. Go Twins!!
