    Not all is bad and I wouldn't say we have to get new owners. Would be nice if for once in awhile, the Pohlad ownership would stretch to win a World championship on payroll. I understand media rights like TV and radio have been an issue. They cut in the baseball department, front office, area scouts, analytics, and game day operations. One of the reason's attendance suffered is because of the TV blackouts and announcing your cutting payroll and messaging from ownership. I actually think coaches and front office have been doing a really good to decent job. Revenue has suffered on game day operations because pricing is a little steep in merchandise and beer, and some ticket areas. You have to have price points that appeal to wide variety of fans. Would help if we had better April and May weather and this year was fairly mild. Some of this can be made up with volume like family stand stuff they are doing. I think sales group could do better at selling group tix, advertising, signage, sponsorships and theme areas of ballpark. The Truly area for ticket areas is very nice. I'm not always annoyed with Pohlad ownership, they kept team here, do good things with Twins foundation and community, team has been decently competitive/successful this decade and last. The concerts they put on generate good revenue and bring good acts. Be better at fan relations and media rights, access.

    LOL That was a bomb!

    Vazquez hustle was noticeable. Let's keep it going!

    His defense at first base has been phenomenal. He has been a great Twins player. I don't care that he is 38, there is still tread on the tire and he can still go. I would welcome him back easily.

    Bullpen depth is shallow.

    This isn't just Rocco, it's a direct reflection of ownership tying hands of front office at the trade deadline. They knew they had a few holes and the Pohlad ownership group wouldn't authorize payroll increase without unloading salary. Those constraints limited any trade opportunities. Twins ownership limits chance of success by small thinking.

    Okert is a bum

    Santana has been gold glove worthy at 1st base. He hits anywhere you put him in line-up and is a switch hitter. We are lucky to have him and any playoff line-up has to include him.

    Lousy throw by Miranda, plus he had a crappy at bat in 10th.
  10. jaimedude
    Yep, Lewis laid a stink pickle.
  11. jaimedude
    Come on Julien, you had to know the ump wasn't giving you the close call, even if the pitch was outside.
  12. jaimedude
    Alcala completely S'd to bed.
  13. jaimedude
    This is ridiculous, what the hell Rocco?
  14. jaimedude
    Rocco, he has used Alcala a lot this weekend, perhaps too much.
  15. jaimedude
    Surprised Tigers DFA'd Urshela. Seemed like he was still a really effective defender with a good arm.
  16. jaimedude
    Ober really pitched well after first inning. These types of wins will help the goal of making it to the post season.
  17. jaimedude
    Varland sure does give up Gopher balls. Even on pitches out of strikezone
  18. jaimedude
    I just hope Matthew's isn't super nervous and overthrow's the ball. Guys first games, they are usually so amped up the pitches are all over the board. This pitcher is supposed to have good control of the strike zone and a good strikeout pitcher. Would be nice if Twins hit on pitching in the draft.
  19. jaimedude
    Twins lack of situational hitting and bullpen failures reflect Pohlad ownership pinching pennies and cutting corners.
  20. jaimedude
    Now we know why Rocco pinch hits for Larnach all year long. Although maybe if Rocco didn't do that, the rookies actually learn to hit. Twins bullpen has cracks that Cleveland doesn't. That is why trade deadline was such a let down.
  21. jaimedude
    Gross at bat by Larnach, did exactly what pitcher wanted him to do.
  22. jaimedude
    Please no Farmer hitting! Crud.
  23. jaimedude
    Vazquez playing hard today!
  24. jaimedude
    Pretty lousy at bat's by Miranda this weekend. Noticeable lack of hustle.
  25. jaimedude
    Farmer should be DFA'd, he is toast. He is not an asset on defense. Martin would have caught that floating chip shot broken bat hit.
