    Just popped in on thread to say scherzer again was a master , I guess I wasn't paying attention to his pitch count , because I thought he would go another inning ... We got a lefthander and the Twins managed 3 runs with 2 homers going opposite field ... Cleveland won their game so our bullpen better not choke ...

    If he was replacing a dfa'd Gallo , would that be helping the Twins????
  3. Blyleven2011
    Stevenson gets the nod , good for him though he is another left handed bat , he brings strong numbers from AAA and also experience in mlb , can he spark the running game hopefully

    We were leading the division last year going into September , I hope history doesn't repeat itself !!!
  5. Blyleven2011
    I really don't care if you believe or not ... I made a statement , the Twins collapsed last September and it's possible they do it again this September , it's going to the wire and someone is going to win by a nose .... Twins have to many flaws except for starting pitching but they could wear down from the workload ...

    Check out the twins video right below the picture of Culpepper ...

    For two years in a row September will not be kind to the Twins and I can see Cleveland over taking us and winning the division and I'm okay with this .... The only way the Twins will win is to show some moxie an win ten or more games in arow ... This division title may go all the way to the end , Cleveland got better and Twins remain the same , a flawed team ... It does add some excitement if Cleveland and Twins are in a pennant race ... FO is responsible once again for constructing this team , yes they went and traded for good starters , other than Ober , they really haven't had a pipeline of pitchers ( they finally did something right with the starters but totally ignored the bullpen and a quality right-handed outfielder bat ) twice they failed , off-season and deadline ... Do not cut this front office any slack , it's blunder after blunder ... I am so frustrated , thank you for letting me vent ....

    In order for this manager to win the players all need to have career years , see 2019 stats ...
  9. Blyleven2011
    Yep , it wasn't meant to be , hitting a grand slam 3 games in a row ... Lightning doesn't always strike in the same place ... Lewis is a player to watch , any baseball personal will tell you he could be something special .... We need more players like Lewis ...
  10. Blyleven2011
    Lewis ... The opportunity presented it's self in the first inning For his third consecutive grand slam in 3 games , wasn't meant to be ... Kepler ... Can you believe what a turn around Kepler is having at the plate , his average keeps on climbing , he. Got 2 hits again tonight in the loss , almost 3 years of an almost sure out and now someone that seems like he is having fun once again playing baseball .... Correa .... 27 grounding into double plays , i don't think he even has that many doubles as in hits ... Dfa please ... K-king ( yes we know how much the FO and Rocco love the guy , come on )
  11. Blyleven2011
    Donaldson was a good player with an attitude once , now he is just an unemployed ball player with an attitude ...
  12. Blyleven2011
    It really doesn't matter at this point but I'd take Texas or Houston over Seattle if the playoffs started tomorrow ,,, Seattle has been awesome of late , Texas has hit a skid lately and Houston has just been steady all season ... I talked to a friend in Houston and he doesnt think Houston is even going to make the playoffs ...

    Lefthanded Rookie funderburk makes his mlb debut and gets the win ... Well done kody , mark would be proud of you ...
  14. Blyleven2011
    Don't forget Polanco , I sure hope he is 100 % healthy and can help the offense ignite these double digit wins and a added plus of a 20 game winning streak ... Lewis is the man !!!
  15. Blyleven2011
    If I remember right , the other funderburk's first name was Mark , such a long time ago
  16. Blyleven2011
    Good Game action tonight , Twins win with double digit runs ... Rookie funderburk makes his debut and gets the win ... Can I have my cake and eat it too ...
  17. Blyleven2011
    Playoff races , affiliates are playing good ball .... To bad larnach can't seem to get his game figured out , I can't see him coming up when rosters expand ... I hope larnach goes to driveline this winter and can get things figured out with the off speed stuff , it's become psychological to him by now and needs help , he could be traded this off season or if not , 2024 is probably his last chance in the Twins organization ..
  18. Blyleven2011
    The ta do list ... Rest or no rest ... I say rest the veterans and let the younger players play and go on a winning streak ... When was the last time we had a winming streak of 10 games or more ???
  19. Blyleven2011
    Alittle early to be even speculating , with the possibility of injuries and the work load of some tiring , the first trio should be Lopez, gray and maeda , if we get past that then the next series should be Lopez, gray , Ryan and not sure , but maeda should move to the bullpen for the second round if we make it that far ... There is still a 5 percent chance we don't even make the playoffs , Twins need to tweak some area of weaknesses that are quite obvious to us fans , but the plan of FO and Rocco might think differently ,,, Get hot and go on a winning streak would solve the problem for a runaway division , I don't want to back into the playoffs , I want to see them earn it ....
  20. Blyleven2011
    We get kiriloff and Stewart back it would help immensely ...
  21. Blyleven2011
    It's not whether you win or lose , it's how you play the game ... Texas handed this win to us just like we handed Texas the Saturday night win , I thought Chapman was going to implode and give us the win in the ninth , he's still good but not lights out like he used to be ... The extra innings were nice but not to entertaining , base running blunders cost us a run that possibly could have won the game earlier than the 13th inning ... I was not impressed with the team in extra innings but we managed a win and won the series , when are we ever going to bunt in extra innings ??? Keuchel earned his wings and the game ball should go to Keuchel for keeping us in the game to tie it up in the bottom of the ninth ...
  22. Blyleven2011
    I'm not saying yes , I'm not saying no but anything is possible with this FO when it comes to keeping Gallo or even signing Gallo .... What a crock , and we have to live with it ...
  23. Blyleven2011
    Taylor has a mild hamstring strain after the 2 homer game ... That's what I hear ..
  24. Blyleven2011
    WOW , THAT WAS THE LOUDEST BACK FIRE I'VE EVER HEARD , and I live 50 miles west of target field ... I do understand bringing Duran in the eighth to face the top of the lineup but it backfired for Rocco and Jax ... I'll reiterate what I said a week ago , if Jax can't get out of the inning with 15 or less pitches he doesnt have his stuff going for him that night , when will Rocco learn ... Scherzer was fun to watch , a serious bulldog pitcher ( don't mess with me look ) ... Ryan pitched well enough too and it was a good game , not entertaining but good ...
  25. Blyleven2011
    I concur about removing the strike zone box , but I also would recommend a eye test , concussion tests , drug and last but not least a sobriety test ... It's not just balls and strikes , it's also the runners and balls in play ...
