  1. So how unlucky? 5 times. Still means he's grounded into 21 instead of 26. When Correa is going good he hits to all fields. When he's on dead pull those outside pitches turn into ground ball outs.
  2. It doesn't matter if it's 105 mph. All that means is he's out by 20 feet instead of 10
  3. I do believe the Twins record is nearly identical to where it was last year at this time. If Rocco can't steer this bus across the finish line in 1st place then he might be treading water
  4. You're right. It's not that they're committing willful intentional harm. But as analytical as the Twins organization is are they just wishing and hoping that these holes will miraculouly improve just by penning their names in the lineup? Why not try something different? But that time was when Buxton went down as well as Castro. And Martin wasnt en fuego then. But still. They had options. Just chose the wrong one
  5. Is this idea being floated to prevent Correa from possibly breaking the MLB record for GIDP? (Sarcasm) Correa is a veteran player. Sure he wants to play everyday. In the same token if Rocco decides to give him an occasional day off Correa is not going to object. He's really the only guy with extensive playoff experience. Yeah I know there's others. But he's going to be the guy leading the troops. And I'm sure it's already been discussed. If the Twins can extend the division lead to 8 or 10 he'll get rest. If Cleveland goes on a tear and eats into that lead, he won't. JMO
  6. I saw that too. I thought it was inverted. 6-11. At least it seems that way. Lol
  7. I agree that they don't quit. But there has been a lot said recently about this team lacking heart or guts. Yet in saying that they don't quit, one must also add that there's still a lot of things to clean-up. Today it was baserunning. Yesterday it was the pen giving away a game similar to the one they won today. And I see a lot of trying to win it with 1 swing vs advancing baserunners. Cleveland is coming to town. I hope they can get past this 6 games over .500 hurdle once and for all.
  8. Well the Twins walked one off without putting a ball in play. Crazy a-- game
  9. The Twins are now in the 13th and haven't even ATTEMPTED a bunt. I don't care if they wind up winning this game. This is just crazy.
  10. Correa with a legitimate shot of breaking MLB record for GIDP. 10 away with 6 weeks to go
  11. And the Twins have made 2 base running blunders in extras. Nearly a 3rd
  12. Solano should have been rung up there. PB or WP. Make em pay
  13. Nope. You're right. None of the above. He just got whupped like a red headed step child
  14. Hilarious 😂
  15. Percentages. And you're talking absolutes. And that's how Bochy did play Rocco like a fiddle. Because if he'd have announced Gallo then Julien would be available to ph in the 10th instead. Now Gallo can pinch run for Vasquez
  16. Dick is screaming about every ball put in play. Why no bunt with Lewis?
  17. I only disagree with you in the sense that if Rocco is anticipating Bochy to respond with a pitching change to a left hander then it should have been Gallo and not Julien as the announced ph. If you announce Julien then use him. If you want to sub Vasquez for Gallo I'm ok with that. Now the only bench guy is Gallo with his 50% K rate.
  18. Wallner has no gripe on that one.
  19. Keuchel getting a lot of pitches hit hard this inning. But he endeavored to persevere
  20. During my days of consuming alcohol. My drinks of choice were Guinness stout and Glenfiddich scotch. Guinness and 0 alcohol? Can't wrap my head around that either. Luplow hitting 3rd or no alcohol Guinness. Royce Lewis! Nice
  21. I'm trying! ( to wrap my head around it ) Not very successfully mind you. But I'm trying.
  22. Sorry my friend. The genie said your 3 wishes have all been used
  23. So you're saying Luplow is a better version of Garlick. Who the Twins have touted as a lefty masher for a couple years now.
  24. Yes! With Correa hitting cleanup. Murderers Row
  25. It's obvious that it's something that's worked on. As soon as that ball was hit Correa ran to position himself as the cutoff while Polanco went over to cover 2nd. It was a thing of beauty on that particular play.
