Louie must like the bus rides in the minors , he is stubborn and wants to be a starter .... His best season so far has been 2023 bullpen , so if he wants to stick in the majors and have the good life , it appears to be in the bullpen ... Duffy was a converted starter and had some good years as a reliever , it's time for Louie to focus on what will keep him in the majors ...

What an inning in the top half of 4th inning ... Singles , doubles and a game changing 3 run homerun ... Just the way I remember baseball is to be played ... 15 hits and double digit runs , the batters took the worrying out of the game early , nice game ...

Everytime I read these minor league reports it seems our 2024 draftees are getting clutch hits ... Keep it up , cause we need clutch hitters , keashall had been raking until his surgery .... Nice outing for Lewis ....

Awful selection bringing okert in with a lead ... Okert's melt down brings back acala's melt down way to soon ... We need a major league manager and a few major league arms for the bullpen ...

Twins (Ober) vs Padres (Perez): 8/20/24, 8:40pm
Blyleven2011 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Archived Game Threads
From Jax to okert , what is Rocco thinking , okert meltdown is expected but not acala's ... -
I did not know or hear Vazquez went to driveline this past off season until now ... When players are struggling , it's nice that the players who want to increase their production can go hear a different voice ... Vazquez has been quite productive the past couple of months , hope he carries it to the end this season ...
-
I can take this loss alot easier than the loss to texas on Sunday for the sweep ... Zebby was okay but his pitches were pretty high all night long , wasn't hitting his spots as good as his first game and yes he got squeezed by home plate umpire on calls ...
-
I say put Alcala right back out there in a pressure situation and see how his confidence responds , don't baby him like Rocco could possibly do ... Rest him up for another opportunity in a high pressure game ...
-
If acala was not focused , then rocco should have removed him after 3 batters and I don't care how many pitches were thrown , acala should have been taken out ( he did this with richards about 10 days ago when richards couldn't find the strike zone and walks and runs were allowed ) , the manager did what he always does to let a game get away , he wants a pitcher to complete a whole inning and not bring in a relief pitcher to clean up his mess , ( if you believe Rocco's a capable manager , then i will disagree , I've said many times , Rocco will never bring us to a world series or win it ) ,... it's rocco's MO not to change horses mid stream , he wants a relief pitcher to have a fresh inning ,,, richards finally was brought in ( after 5 runs were scored off Alcala when he wasn't focused ) and did get the out and pitched another inning ...
-
A double jeopardy loss in a way , twins lose and fail to gain a game on Cleveland , who also lost ... Acala a melt down and Rocco leaving him in allowing 5 runs is just plain insane , when a pitcher doesn't have it , you can pull him after 3 batters , but Rocco seems to not want to bring in a relief pitcher in with runners on , he always seems to want a reliever to start a fresh inning ... Crazy ... Why did he ( Rocco ) pinch hit for larnach with Vazquez ???? ... Do we have a major league manager with the right mind set that wants to win every game like I do ??? ...

Suspenseful all the way to the end .... Twins win the opener and sets the tone for the series ... Let's go twins , you beat up on texas last year , let do it again ... Not the prettiest win but a much needed one for the race to the division ... Did I say go twins yet ...

3rd base is Lewis , with some work he can transition himself to a gold glove 3rd basemen and I'm sure he desires to be a gold glover , give him time and give him health and he will succeed .. Koskie and gaetti were way worse than Lewis to begin their twins career and with work turned out to be exceptional third basemen ....
-
I was on the road listening on the radio , after the game I thought man we seem to lose alot of Wednesday games ... I looked it up when I got home , twins are 11 and 9 on Wednesday ... Just Seemed like the opposite to me , I guess I listen to to many games to keep it straight when I'm on the road ... I to was hoping for a Lewis grand slam , I'm sure he was too ...
-
Rich hill has a history of injuries , a long list ... I'd rather have Jamie moyer ... Baseball was very exciting last night with Matthew's pitching , win or lose I think it can be exciting the rest of the way with our future , we now have Morris in AAA as depth
-
From start to finish it was a good game ,,, The hitters hit to insure a win for the rookie making his debut ... I don't think I have been this excited about a rookie making his debut since Eddie Bane did for the twins back in 1973 ...

4 up 4 down , then a solo homer , then 2 up and 2 down ... I'd say he recovered and not a bad start for the rookie , keep it low and get those grounders ... -
Cubby was a decent player , him and smalley maned the left side of the infield , though they weren't Blyleven they both gave the twins productive seasons ... rest in peace cubby ...

Mom / dad I made it , I'm going to the show says an excited zebby ... Dad says that's great son , now get down to business and do your best for the twins ... Good luck son , look forward to seeing you , we'll be in attendance ...

Royce Lewis is clutch ... Get runners on base and Lewis will drive them in , always a difference maker ... Pablo re-set after 2nd inning , bullpen did a good job ... defense was good and showed it athleticism ... No solo homeruns , batters get a bloop or walk and then a blast , need more of these kind of Homer's ... Willi castro got it going , he is having a nice season after a slow start ...
