  1. I'll give him the benefit of doubt. Pigheaded. But I'm leaning
  2. Yeah and this isn't grade school. But you can hit .209 and .187 and earn that right to play.
  3. Harvey Haddix type game. It'll be a long night. 35-40 Ks
  4. Keep trying to justify running Gallo and Kepler out there every day. Opportunities are given to unproven commodities in cases where you know what your getting from the 1st 2 guys. Not much. And it's possible that Wallner might earn it if given a chance. He can't be any worse offensively. If he fails what have they lost? Same answer. Not much
  5. Juliens 2 errors at 2nd base could easily be 6. He's been the beneficiary of some questionable official scoring. Every ball hit his way is an adventure. That said. I'd still like his bat in the lineup. But you can't compare his defense to anyone's.
  6. According to Rocco. This is the same issue as he had in ST and never has gotten completely healed. If that's the case why would he not be resting it?
  7. Back issues now too. I remember someone mentioning that a while back. He'll never see the outfield again with all these issues. .
  8. Agreed about the family and enjoying time. But there's probably at least 40 million reasons he'll play a few more years

    2nd half moves

    Yes. Those projections while accurate surely did not take into account one of the top pitching staffs starter wise and one of the worst offenses in all of baseball to this point. No prognosticators would have came up with a .500 team if they thought the Twins staff would be as good as it has. Conversely they wouldn't have them at .500 if they knew the hitting would be so poor.
  10. Is Rob Manfredi the most hated Commissioner in all sports? I know Goodell gets booed. But before every single pick?
  11. And while they're at it maybe they can lure George away from the Yankees. He'll have the Twins flying coach. That'll keep them grounded and hungry.
  12. Just being realistic. But even if Steer was still a Twin he would have started the season with St. Paul based on Miranda's 2022 season. So Miranda with his struggles was demoted to AAA to make room for Lewis. When Lewis went down it may have opened a spot for Steer. But he wouldn't have had the opportunity to showcase his ability like he's had with the Reds. Hind sight is always 20/20. JMO.
  13. I'll plead the 5th. But she didn't go by Amy when I knew her.
  14. Flash: Satirical article sparks heated debate
  15. He might actually be their 4th best. But that's a different topic
  16. Do you like apples?
  17. I'm with you Ethan. You won't die alone on that hill. I'm a coming, guns ablazing. 🔫
  18. It has nothing to do with like or hate. His defense, his strongest suit has only been avg. Until the past week or so. I already mentioned how every ball hit to the gap he shys away from. He let's Taylor run everything down. He finally ran one down on Tues vs Royals. And same for his wall play. He made an outstanding play to possibly save the game with a sliding catch on the line. He had a similar play vs the red Sox that he completely gave up on. Which cost them that game earlier this year. So he can make the plays but he doesn't give 100% on every play. And where he could really make a difference is by helping out in CF but he has said he'd rather not. Really. That's the guy you want? Someone who plays on their terms. How many triples has he misplayed off the overhang in his home park? And offensively he's been non existent at times and has been chastised by Rocco for lack of hustle. So it's not a like or hate thing. It's an effort thing. But you watch the same games I do and you consider his play flawless. I don't.
