They can send a player down 4 times don't they know ,he's got to learn to lay off that crap outside and low or at least show he's trying to hit it to rightfield ...

Peter wake up , the twins are battling back , down a run ...
-
I know some aren't going to like this but with the trade deadline coming up , we need to keep Bell's bat in lineup for the remainder of the season to stay some what competitive ... FO has some trades to make at deadline and the 2 obvious ones won't hurt the team if traded ( Larnach and Jeffers) ... Get buxton healthy and we'll be fine ..

Kody is a gamer ..

He's still on the right side of the green grass !!!

How many first pitch homers has zebby allowed , is there a stat somewhere for that ??
-
I concur , my thoughts exactly when I read the headline ... Have they figured out any kind of plan , we really haven't had any inclination to a plan other than trading assets for prospects for restructuring as they put it , it's really a rebuild and it is showing some good signs with better baseball this year ...

With all the Injuries to our starters this year the answer is quite obvious Bradley ... No one liked all the deadline trades last season especially the trades of team controlled players , but trading a bullpen arm for a starter is a no brainer , Duran for Abel and Tait , Jax for Bradley etc. ...
-
Sorry sam , we can get along fine without Ryan Jeffers , caratini and Jackson have and will fill in for Jeffers absence ... Trade Jeffers for some value , preferably a player or two that is MLB ready ... We can be sellers at this deadline with a few players and it won't hurt us going forward , we can also be buyers but I'm pretty sure that is not in their plans ...

So close 🤏 to 500 but no cigar , wasn't meant to be today as our players ( offense and bullpen ) , there was plus and minus in todays game ( ober threw 5 inning , the offense didnt wake up )... Good winning series , now the angels next at home , lets have 3 good games and relax through the allstar break ... I am enjoying the twins games ( after the past few years of brutal baseball ) Lots of negativity on the twins daily and game threads , you just cant please everyone ( i know its because of the veterans that are past their prime , but the team is making changes and we'll see who has promise for next year ), Did i say I am enjoying the twins games this season more than the past few years ... The team is playing good and winning their share and better than most expected ( thats improvement and good enough for me ) , but if they get into the playoffs , I'm sorry , it will be a 1 and done series going up against better pitching and better offenses ... More than Half the season has been played , in Minnesota it's always wait till next year , if we continue to play good baseball the remainder of the season , then my expectations will be much higher next season ... For now I'm just going to watch the twins keep trying to improve and see who fits into their plans for 2027 ...

Going to have to retract , twins suck ...

Still have 9 outs , going to need them all as we walk it off in the bottom of the ninth ... Heard it hear first , sport fans ...

The twins haven't swept Cleveland since 2020 , it would a great day to break the streak , I'm knocking on wood ...

Kind of a nit pik , falvey didn't leave after the season , he left right before 2026 season and good riddance , baldelli got fired right after the season and good riddance ... Clemens was just a depth player to add for keaschalls injury , most likely they never expected anything more than defense ... Clemens was productive right away and they found at bats and positions for him to play , he eventually cooled down but had some game changing moments ... Kody this year has been given regular playing time at multiple positions and is making the most of his opportunity ... Nice for Kody , maybe he's a late bloomer and can carve out some good years , nobody on earth knows ...

Sizemore is a god send , choosing coaches that can teach is difficult , Falvey and baldelli seemed to think that AAA was all the development they needed and players weren't successful in playing quality baseball at the mlb level , players are taking a big step from level to level and need good coaching for success , Sizemore is acheving results more than any coach under Falvey and baldelli in my opinion ... He was a great player that had a short career due to injuries ... We have a keeper in Sizemore ...

Not a great game , i almost didn't finish watching the game when Orze walked the second and third batters of the inning and rogers allowed 2 runs to score , we need pitchers in close games that doesn't walk batters ... Lee getting picked off third was a blunder ... Both teams played poorly but twins managed to match the score everytime Cleveland scored and prevailed in a walk off win ... Cleveland pitchers walked a bunch of twins hitters , walks will haunt ... Nice game winning hit by roden , sure wish fedko could get a hit before he is demoted ... Last years deadline : to bad Falvey and company couldn't see into the future and not traded off all that pitching , it wasn't the players that was lacking talent , it was the manager ( baldelli ) that was lacking talent , he couldn't unlock the talent of his players at the major league level ... the team is fun to watch and grinding away and finding ways to win ... It is possible that the manager is responsible for the wins and losses , I'll take shelton any day of the week over baldelli ...

Someone said earlier that the twins didn't deserve to win ... They were right , but a win is a win and we won ... HOW ABOUT THAT ...
-
Our bats have to heat up , but our bullpen pitching has to get the outs ... Orze in , please don't walk the first guy ...
-
Cleveland announcers say Prielipp might of aggravated his shoulder, trainers were working on his shoulder and Adam's was warming up rather quickly ... Hope there wrong ...
-
Prielipp good through lineup once , dangit, not so good the second time through in the fourth ...
-
With a almost 15% walk rate , I'd say he's got refinements to do at AAA , no i don't think he will get promoted post deadline ...
-
Draft ... Good read sam ... What i have seen in the past is that other organizations have selected players after the twins have selected in the first round that have made their MLB debut either the same year or next and succeeded , it's hard to do but can be done ... It's hard to swallow when teams get better players ( mlb ready ) in the first round after twins selection , Angel's Neto , Arizona's Carroll and some pitchers that go to bullpen and next year are premium starters the next year are some ... Did falvey hire the best professionals ( his words not mine ) when he changed personal and cleaned house in the organization when he took over ...

Can we get to 500 , it would exceed everyone's preseason expections at this point in the season ... Twins out played the Cleveland team , Cleveland had some sloppy defense that helped ... What kind of a winning streak can we get on without the contributions of Buxton ... Allstar game coming up , 500 would look nice ...
