  1. How does a relief pitcher walk 5 batters in 2 innings and still have a job? Yeah it's 11-1 but that's about as low keverage as it gets
  2. It looked like Mr. Ryan was having a conversation with himself coming off the mound.
  3. And Rocco just said left hamstring strain. Amazing how cramps get worse by sitting
  4. Between the Cubs and White Sox. The Cubs drought was 108 years and the White Sox was 87 I think. 1917-2004? Thank God Chicago had the Black Hawks, Bears, and Bulls to cheer. Before 2016 the Cubs biggest memory was the Homer in the gloamin. Whatever the heck that was
  5. I don't understand the need to vent ones frustration at a particular player. But it's their right. I know the player being booed by his home crowd knows that they're struggling. I'm the opposite. Cross my fingers, promise to never do wrong ever. Sacrifice chickens. Whatever it takes to break that slump.
  6. Buxton is not nor was he EVER a 5 tool player. 1. Hit for avg. (Never) 2. Hit for power. Yes. 3. Run. Absolutely. 4. Defensively, One of the best CF of all time. When healthy. 5. Arm strength. Yes. It's above avg. If he was able to stay healthy and played 130 or 140 games per year, there would be a healthy debate for his HOF enshrinemeInt. So if the best he can offer is the maximum number of games he can provide as DH the Twins will happily take the results of 600 ab's vs 400 he might accrue by playing both. He's averaging less than 100 games per season for his career after all. I'm not saying he should never play CF again. But I'm also not opposed to his solely dh role either. Whatever maximizes his playing time.
  7. But will the Lopez experience be any more fun?
  8. Bullpen got extended last night but Stewart out for 2nd straight game. And starts off the inning with a walk. Yikes
  9. 3 runs in. 2 with 2 outs. Good to see timely hitting WITHOUT the long ball. Yes
  10. SD helping Pagan bring that ERA down. He's looked serviceable after his one terrible outing. But his results are much better when he keeps the walks down. Oh no. Bases loaded
  11. I agree. The only fault I saw was he was so consistent that the Padres came out 1st pitch swinging as their game plan and belted a couple pretty good.
  12. Limitless food and beverage. With a limit of 2 hot items. So the limitless has limits. 🤣
  13. Good to see Farmer hitting as if his injury never happened. And Gallo just missed it by that much
  14. Was Plesac wearing his Johnny Carson Swami hat?
  15. And yet it does. Putting the ball in play does not apply in Minnesota
  16. I'm not dismissing Byron Buxton. But I question how his playing the outfield makes him a better hitter? He's never been a high avg. guy and he's a consistently streaky hitter on the positive and negative side. I think most people view him as a mookie Betts type hitter which he never was nor ever will be whether he's DHing or playing CF. Let's see if he can put up these huge projection numbers by performing in 140 or 150 games primarily as DH vs 100 games as DH/CF
  17. Maybe because Hader didn't have too many runners in scoring position with no outs. The ghost runner started last year. So that's not a big surprise that Duran has 4 bunt attempts against him. And Hader had a down year last year so his closing opportunities were less frequent
  18. OK. When it's your job to come in and hold a lead and you give up a run, is that considered a success?
  19. He does. But not the doublehopper. It looked like he was hurrying and spiked that one
  20. The Twins captain. 1st admiring his not quite a homer and then gets gunned at home. Not a good look
