  1. Enjoy the win , they don't come often enough ... Twins shut out royals tonight , had they not given up 2 unearned runs the night prior it could of been a shoulda coulda woulda win ... Defense and pitching does win games , offense still needs some work ( what have our 3 new hitting coaches been doing ) ...
  2. Shoulda coulda woulda ... If we hadn't given the royals 2 unearned runs last night , I now believe we would of won 1-0 ... Defense matters and pitching too ... Good game tonight , a very good game with defense and pitching .... Flaws on base paths though ...
  3. First homerun for wallner , hope this gets him going with the bat ...
  4. Ryans velocity is down a tick and 2 fly ball outs , Rocco is probably going to pull him , if he doesn't, better have an arm ready to go in the pen ..
  5. Third time through the order , will Rocco have a gut feeling and leave him in ... He better ...
  6. Defense has looked very good tonight ... Keep it up ...
  7. Man these guys look bad swinging at 3rd strikes ...
  8. We still have a chance to win this tonight ... Not saying we will ... Nice to see keirsey Jr playing for once , got to see what he can do ...
  9. We're bad doc , but I hope we aren't that bad ... I don't want to be laughing at falvey and Baldelli for doing the same things over and over again , wanting different result ... Remember 2021 , I laughed everytime they brought in colome to stop the bleeding and everytime we went extra innings , because i knew the outcome , Remember last year with Margot pinch hitting , these are things that makes me roll my eyes and laugh at how stupid they are because they didn't work ... Margot struck out pinch hitting for detroit early on that I watched , i dont know if he has broken his streak yet ... Have they learned anything from their mistakes , we'll see ...
  10. I would hope it would be Toby gardenhire over tingler , tingler can go out the door with Baldelli ...
  11. By Pablo not mentioning to maki about the injury , I think the players might not have any respect for the coaches , it was odd ... what's your thought ???
  12. With Rocco and falvey in charge , it will be awhile before things shake up ... If Joe P likes baseball more than his uncles than he should quote Jim P 's words , TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE ...
  13. That's a terrible swing Miranda had
  14. 2 righthanders strike out and a lefty on left hits a groundball out ... We need more lefthanders in the lineup against ragans
  15. The no hit against lefties continues
  16. 1 is all they need to break the jinx , can Byron break it in the top of the 1st inning ???
  17. I'll have to go along with the majority of 1 , roccos decisions do effect the outcome , yes the players do have to play but it's the managers and coaches responsibility to make sure that player is in position to succeed ... If this team was taught and played solid defense , hitting situations , basic fundamentals and so on , then it would be the players responsibility to take blame , this team is not properly coached with a baseball philosophy ...
  18. Yes Julian could get sent out too ... Keirsey Jr has good defense , but really don't know much about his bat because rocco doesn't start him , he had a decent spring training with the bat , for what's it worth ...
  19. Keirsey Jr has speed , he could be given a chance at top of order to spark things if he gets on base , he needs to bat , can't be any worse than what the line up has been , Lee comes up , gasser goes ...
  20. Buxton is a good player but injury prone as we know , starting 10 games in arow is a plus but he like others are not carrying the team with their inconsistent bats ... What stands out most of buxtons season so far is the missed catch in left center he caught up to and dropped the other day , he knows he should have caught it , will it be enough to ignite the fire to be better , he was upset he dropped it , that was easy to see ... Baseball is a game of concentration in the field and at the plate , will that dropped ball improve his concentration more ??? ... I don't blame cold weather ...
  21. Still would like to see a castro or someone with speed ( castro stole bases in 2023 and we won the division )at the top of lineup and Wallner 4th or 5th , his bat seems to be heating up and if it does he can produce more rbi's ... Put buxton in 2nd hole , larnach 3rd and drop Correa down to 6th until he gets his hitting going ... Keirsey Jr not getting any starts perplexes me alittle , time for a Buxton or Bader game off and Keirsey Jr in left or center , he needs some playing time or he'll rot on the bench ...
  22. Pitching looks good , but hitting hasn't got going as of yet , some have good starts but it takes a team effort to win ... Thanks for the review ...
  23. It's leading to a total system failure as the brains of our organization continue to do the same thing day after day and expecting different results ... Playing the game with analytic strategy is no strategy at all , can't keep reading from the analytic pages , maybe we don't even need a manager , I think the players could read those spread sheets and contruct a team to play more exciting baseball ...
  24. Go see the wizard of Oz ... Get a new heart , brain and some courage to come through in the clutch ...
