  1. So basically what you're saying is that in reality, there's no help coming from the farm. And over usage and injuries. Starters have been going on avg. an inning longer than last year? So the bullpen shouldn't have as many innings. Correct? And who's been injured other than Thielbar? Alcala gets a pass as he hasn't come back anywhere close to his old self. I think this may be where the Twins put to much stock in his return
  2. I was not just talking about Jax. As of late its been pretty much every Or anyone coming out of the pen other than Duran.
  3. Is it Hard Luck Jax? More like hard hit Jax. Maybe the starters need to throw complete games or at least 8 innings and then Duran.
  4. If the Twins are a bad team with a lot of good players as you've stated, then what is needed to turn them into a good team? Because I agree that they have the talent.
  5. A good team sweeps the Dodgers. The Twins aren't there yet. Let's hope they can build off this series going forward. The bullpen has to become more than just Duran and to a lesser extent Lopez. On to Disneyland and Trout and Ohtani.
  6. 4 innings from the starting pitcher didn't help an all ready taxed bullpen
  7. You were all in on the substitution though.
  8. LA announcers are smug a-holes. Who basically just implied that the Twins don't belong on the same field as them. And that the AL Central is so weak the Twins should win it by double digits
  9. With all the running Buxton has done tonight, will he need tomorrow off? Or is this what we can expect more of from here on out
  10. Well let's make it 2 tonight. Jax warming up???
  11. I think he's just busting balls. Haha
  12. We can't talk math, but we can apply physics. And there's no way a bounced ball arrives faster than a rope. It may appear that way but as soon as it hits the ground it creates friction.
  13. With all he's got going on I thought he pitched well. Not a lot of hard contact. I guess you could say he out pitched him
  14. Yes indeed. If Castro got his down last night. I digress
  15. Is this satire? Buxton only has about 2100 career AB's
  16. And you get to enjoy 5 more years of similar results.
  17. I think it's actually June 1st. So 2 weeks and 2 days I guess
  18. It was very questionable, but even if it could have been reviewed I doubt it would have been overturned
  19. And German, the Yankee pitcher has just been tossed from Blue Jays game by the same umpiring crew that he got away with the sticky rosin issue vs Twins
  20. Watched the whole game. And I can tell you that yes the umpires calls on Kiriloffs AB effectively took the bat out of his hands, but that certainly is not what lost the game. There were several key moments. I believe Gallo was subbed out way too early. But Rocco nor anyone else anticipated a 12 inning game. Unlucky Jax? Even the outs he got were hard hit balls. Duran and Lopez were called on for 2 innings and they both cruised through their 1st inning and faltered in their 2nd. Durans 0-2 pitch was just too fat and got smoked. And Lopez walking a guy that strikes out 60% of the time isn't good. But Rocco does get credit too. His pinch running for Correa was a great move. Only Taylor scores on Buxtons hit. But to me from the 10th inning on after Bickford walked in the go ahead run, Twins hitters helped him out too many times swinging at pitches out of the strike zone. I'm glad they battled back. Today they face Kershaw who will be pitching on emotion and adrenaline.
  21. A sad day indeed. On a day of celebrating our moms. It sad to hear when someone loses theirs. Condolences Mr. Kershaw and anyone else who've lost mothers.
