    Richards and blewett didn't blow it ... Nervous at the start but that 6 run inning was impressive and the twins get the win ...
  2. Blyleven2011
    Pablo back to being Pablo .... Nice ...
  3. Blyleven2011
    Lewis is the man again , 6 run second so far ,,, Go for it ...

    Great Willie , game changer

    We got work to do , twins bats need to pick it up and make good contact ... Strikeouts are hard to take when game is important , i dont care what Rocco says all the games are important from now on , its called a pennant race ...
  6. Blyleven2011
    They just had 4 professional at bats and 3 were strike outs ...

    They better have some kind of strategy against Witt if therecare runners on base , dint let Witt beat you , Pablo better be perfect the rest of the way ...
  8. Blyleven2011
    I know its early , but Why do we pitch to Witt

    Larnach is having a better season at the plate , is it because he is seeing better pitches batting in front of Lewis , Buxton , wallner and Miranda , could be the case ... Was a good laugh when I read that rocco's specialty is making the opposing manager sweat , the only people that sweat are the fans , ( example ) Margot o'fer pinch hitting ...

    If he is compared to gerit Cole and zebby's nerves don't get the best of him , then we should be in the win column if blewett doesn't blow it in relief ... Good luck zebby

    It's baby steps for preilipp ... Have you any insight on canterino , it's been a year now since surgery , still having setbacks ? , is he throwing at all ??? Haven't heard or read anything on him this year , but I was gone most of the first 4 months ...

    Nobody has posted about the ceremony for Ryan and stelmaszek into twins hall of fame expect the OP ... It was a full house of respectful past players , managers and other teams GM's ... Ryan and stelmaszek were both class acts to the twins organization ... Ryan tried his best to bring a championship to Minnesota by working hard , evaluating prospects and drafting , working under a limited payroll ( he was not a total system failure ) , sure he made some mistakes but he had my respect as he was always straightforward to the fans ... Stelmaszek , the players all loved him ... Welcome to the twins hall of fame terry and Rick ...

    Baseball is a business , to keep the fans filling the seats they have to keep the players fans want to see playing .... They found away to keep puckett and threw money at Mauer , they signed Correa in free agency , Donaldson to , they got creative with Buxton ... The above mentioned players were all star players , ( except maybe Donaldson , at least for the twins ) ... Lewis has star potential and is a game changer , you don't keep Lewis as a twins player , you won't keep the devoted fans coming to the stadium ... Options ;;;; Get creative and sign him to an incentive ladened contract ... Or second option , get an owner that loves baseball and wants to win the whole shooting match, by spending money to win ( its called keeping up with the Jonies)

    Nice to see Raya going deeper into the games lately and doing fine ... Keirsey Jr needs to be protected from rule 5 draft this off season and given an opportunity to make the twins out of spring training , the kid has talent regardless of his age , injuries held his development back but since he has remained healthy he has been producing ...

    A double header sweep , couldn't ask for more today ... But I'm asking for a 4 game sweep come Sunday .... Beautiful day for baseball ...
  16. Blyleven2011
    Ober keeps pitching towards pitcher of the month award ... Jax and Duran did there MOJO in today's game ... Nice win over Cleveland , let's swim and Cleveland sinks the rest of the way ... Injuries , they suck .... Ryan most likely out for the season , Stewart I never thought he would make it back , when he goes on IL list it's always months before he returns , fix this guys arm and have him ready for spring ... I hope Scott blewett doesn't blow it tonight ... Go Louie , do that voodoo you do so well .. Who's the 27th man , varland I'm sure took Ryan's spot ....
  17. Blyleven2011
    Ditto to all the posted opinions , it a tough decision ...
  18. Blyleven2011
    Why do they steal bases in the minors ( hernandez with 29 steals ) , when they don't want to risk injuries and steal bases in the majors ( its a tool , use it ) ... Every club is stealing bases on the twins but it seems we do have some speedsters but don't use them enough to steal bases , it's alot easier to go from second to home than first to home ...
  19. Blyleven2011
    Couldn't agree more about varland to the pen , with little depth in the starting pitcher department , Louie is starting 1 of the doubleheader games , so let's hope he has a great start ... But it weakens that bullpen we had for September and the playoffs last year ... Long reliefers Winder or Sands should have came in after Joe's injury today ...
  20. Blyleven2011
    I was on the road and listening on the radio , both atterbury and gladden said winder will be coming in after Ryan departed with injury ... All of a sudden it's richards warming up and I was fricken pissed , a new guy we don't know much about and he's a 2 pitch pitcher , Rocco or whoever decision was the worst blunder of the year ... A 2 pitch pitcher with 7 innings to go , then Rocco leaves him in crossing his fingers that he could eat some innings , I understand eat innings but when a guy has no control , you can pull him after 3 batters .... I think gardenhire has put in his dues with the twins in Saint Paul and it's time to promote , we need a better major league manager ... Just when my excitement for the team soared after the 5 game winning streak . I never listen to Rocco pre or post game interviews , so I don't know what his reason was for bringing in a 2 pitch pitcher that early in the game ... Man that pisses me off , Worst blunder of the year , I'd like to hear what falvy has to say about his prize addition to the bullpen ... I feel better now ...
  21. Blyleven2011
    Will continue to keep an eye on the prospects , thanks for the article ... Ditto to what everyone else posted ...
  22. Blyleven2011
    I wish dobnak well , he has persevered the odds , but 1 more bad outing , ( dfa ) should put him back in AAA , nobody will claim him ... Sad but true ...
  23. Blyleven2011
    As of now the article doesn't infuse alot of confidence in topa , fastball velocity down , slider and sinker not as good as 2023 ... When he's ready bring him up but not before , his pitches can get AAA hitters out but if his command isn't good , major league hitters are going to tattoo him all day long ... Let's hope it all gets worked out and we see the 2023 version topa had with the mariners ....
  24. Blyleven2011
    Sad we lost it in the first inning , error and 3 run homer by cubbies deflated the twins hitters ... Lopez was all over the place and couldn't locate his pitches ... Lewis just keeps making baseball fun for him , the team and the fans ...
  25. Blyleven2011
    It's been said before , anyone can win on any given day ... It's a 3 team race for the central division , I'm liking our chances to win it alot more than at the beginning of the season ... It's exciting to be in the race ... Go twins ...
