  1. The kid has worked hard , he faced years of adversity with injuries , he has been healthy for over 2 years and his production has improved each healthy year ... Thanks for the article and I wish keirsey Jr, well ...
  2. The season is coming to an end ... Went by to fast but many things were accomplished , players showed off there skills and got promoted , some deserving and some maybe not deserving due to replacing injuries .... They are all prospects and professionals regardless of their age , they all came to play ... The fans were rewarded with alot of good baseball , the future looks bright with some good drafting from the past few years ....
  3. Right now Lewis needs some adjustments , shorten up the swing to catch up to the fastball ... Hopefully soon that baseball will look like a beach ball and he'll be is own self ..... Maybe Rocco put a jinx on him when he said come to play ( second base ...)
  4. Thìs homestand will tell the story , last homestead was probably the worst since 2022 ... If I was FO and the team loses this homestand , I wouldn't wait For the end of the season , I'd fire him and get Toby to finish out the season and playoffs ... This team is made up of young professional ball players , Rocco and his coaches has to find a way to reach the talent and make them better , learning never stops ... If thè coaches and Rocco aren't teaching these players anything , they are definitely ruining alotof talented ball players ...
  5. The pohlads have already won the lottery multiple times , their inheritance for 1 ... They haven't spent a cent of it ...
  6. The second paragraph , to little to late is how this FO works , maybe with the bad season the FO thinks they can sign him to a 1 year , 5 million prove yourself deal , the FO and Rocco have liked Kepler , has to be for his defense because the fans all thought he was a streaky hitter ..
  7. Kepler ; Time to move on , I've always loved his defense but he has always been a streaky hitter and just not productive when it matters most , yes i know he has alot of walk off hits , but in to many instances he just wasnt clutch enough with runners in scoring position ... His high lights are 3 homer games against Bauer .... Thanks max , but sorry the time has come for your next chapter with another team ....
  8. A deflating gutless defeat , the manager needs to find ways to win with the players he has , he is stubborn as a mule and won'tor can't improvise ... HE has all the answers on his spread sheets but continues to fail the test ...
  9. It seems like lately , the twins hitters flip a switch ... They seem to get their hits early in the game and then the switch is turned off ... Let's get going , we need to extend this lead ...
  10. Remember when Correa got hit by a pitch in 2022 , Lewis got called up to play shortstop , we all thought he played the position well in Correa absence , then the centefield injury and I'm not sure he has ever played SS since ... Why isn't he an option at shortstop while Correa is injured , who's better lee or Lewis ... I to believe , in a pennant race you shouldn't have a player learning a new position .. We should be used to it by now , shouldn't we ... I'll answer that , NO ...
  11. I didn't get to watch or listen to the game but was pleasantly surprised we won when̈ i looked up the results , julien finally hits a homerun , first since april or may and a 3 run homer at that , tip your hat to miranda and Santana for getting some bloops and then a blast from Julien ... Also that Kepler was finally put on injured list and twins promoted keirsey Jr ... Good luck kid , believe in yourself and good things will happen , you earned it ...
  12. One bad inning , ONE BAD INNING ... did I say one bad inning ... Twins need to play flawless baseball or these are the results we can expect ...
  13. It's a BIG IF at this time ... One can only dream of an ace as good as kirby ...
  14. Sorry I'm late to the party , I fell asleep !!!! Another 1 run loss , another game with no ability to move the runs up or even score , another game of sloppy defense ... Another game of allowing the other team to run at will ... Festa battled and got through 5 innings , a 2-1 loss is better than a 15-0 disaster , but still a loss .....
  15. Not quite as disgusting 15-0 Loss the other day at home ... It was food pitching though ...
  16. Let's hope santana can have some 9th inning MOJO ...
  17. We also like keirsey Jr , but helman is righthanded and replacing Margot , I understand the reasoning ...
  18. If i remember right , There once was a chance he would have been called up if he wouldn't have had injury , I think there was a need for him 2022 but then he had a hamstring injury right before he possibly would have been promoted ... I sure hope he can contribute to the team , good luck in the majors ...
  19. The twins have started the month out right with 2 wins , the bats were active today , the hitting has to continue ... The players need to take the pressure off themselves and just concentrate on the daily game and not the pennant race unless they can develop a killer instinct and go on a September winning streak , then they can do whatever they want .... Get hot at the right time and the twins can still win the division ... No days off for next 9 games , so they need to come to play ... Nice effort for the win tonight ...
  20. It was a brutal week at target field , a sweep from the braves and the zebby melt down on Saturday ... We are fortunate that we only lost a half a game to Cleveland in division and gained a game against Boston in wild card Pablo , Jax and Duran got the job done 2-0 on Friday and Lewis got the job done on Sunday with the game changing homerun in the eighth , Lewis has 2 hits in a stretch but those 2 hits did provided rbi's ... With our star players injured and out , we need Lewis, Miranda , wallner and Santana to provide production , we need players like larnach, Martin , castro and lee to help set the stage for the big boppers ... Let's make the adjustments and hit this week ... Go Twins ...
  21. The season is almost over and the only player that I knew that went to driveline was Ryan before the season started , lately Vazquez was in an article about driveline to help his hitting and now in this article Jax has been mentioned to driveline ... All 3 players improved , Ryan went for the second year on a row, ... I would like to see an article from twins daily writers before the 2025 season on who went to driveline to enhance their performance , it has certainly helped some players , we might have had other players go to driveline but I don't know who ... The front office could report this to the fans also , it wouldn't be giving away any secrets ... It would also help the fans on gauging what kind of a season that player might have ... Did larnach go to driveline , he has improved this season ???
  22. I'm a fan of Ober , the batters are not a fan of his though , Ober has had a few hiccups this year but has had a solid year ,,even last year until he got tired he had solid starts ... Royce Lewis hits a game changing homerun , nice to get runners on base and then get a three run homerun , not a fan of those solo homeruns , the batters have to do better and make adjustments at getting on base and then get those game changing blast ... Lewis carried the twins in a twins win ... Nice comeback fight that ended in an exciting win ...
  23. 14 games the star players have all played together ( Lewis , Correa and Buxton ) , injuries seem to be our norm ... If I was going to write more I'd write what ( mikelink45 ) wrote , couldn't agree more ... Front office works slow and on hope ...
