    I can't believe we are still awake listening to this interpretation of baseball ... Can't score with bases loaded ( twice ) same Ole , same ole ...

    Gallo doesn't start the game but comes in as a pinch hitter and possibly gets tossed ... If he did get ejected that is a cause for dfa'ing , not helping him or the twins ...

    Tied after five completed innings ... Time to get it going and score some runs and put it away , Pagan cant lose it now that he has been pulled...

    Twins come out fighting in the first inning and looking for a knockout but since the first it's the twins that should be worried about the knockout ...

    Cleveland is losing to Texas rangers , 8-4 Texas

    I'm listening right now to gladden giving the lineups ... I'll be listening and maybe watching all the way to the final out tonight ... Let me tell you about the best game I ever saw as a youngster ... Doubleheader at the old met stadium , twins are playing the Oakland A's 1971 ... Twins win the first game 9-8 ... Nightcap , twins are losing 8-7 two outs bottom of tge 9th with rod carew at second base , and who is up to bat but Harmon Killebrew , who do you want up in that situation but Killebrew , Killebrew gets the pitch and the fans roars as the ball is heading for left center and looking like a homerun , Joe rudi climbs the fence and takes away a homerun with a fantastic catch , twins lose but that was the best game loss I ever seen , Why was it the best game I ever saw , Killebrew gave it his all that night and almost won the game , his all just wasn't quite enough with Joe rudi a great left fielder catching it .... Greatest loss , I tell that story alot to baseball fans .... Best win I ever seen was 1991 , game seven of the world series ... other great memories and stories and there are tons but a few here was Jim kaat hitting homeruns to win the game he pitched all nine innings , a game with Tovar and carew stealing 5 bases in 1 inning and that includes both stealing home in the same inning ... Not to be negative of today's game but that was some exciting baseball back then ...

    Oh I do listen and watch and yes I would like to get to the playoffs and play quality baseball , but I would rather have a team that is hitting on all cylinders and that hasn't been the twins way of late .... I am a loyal twins fan and don't miss alot of games , I dont like posting negative responses but the past 3 years there hasn't been alot of positive baseball from the twins organization , therefore I won't get my hopes high for a central division crown only to have those hopes come crashing down .... If they win , great and anything can happen , see 1987 twins world series winners .... I hope you can tell me at the end of tge season that I was wrong ... Go twins ...

    I just can't raise my hopes only to be let down , so if they do win the division and finally win a playoff game, I will tip my hat to them ... I have been a life long fan since the old met stadium days and the last 3 years it has been a nightmare stuck on ground hog day ....

    We have to get past the deadline first , Before we can talk , are the pitchers built for October ... A couple of starters could be traded at deadline for a return of prospects ... I see us seller's with no chance they can even win the division ... The hitting has not performed well enough as the pitching goes to waste .... I would rather not make the playoffs only to embarrass us once again ....
  12. Blyleven2011
    This front office has tried and tried to build the twins , they have really failed , they fix the starting rotation , but fail to fix the bullpen .... They trade a great hitter ( spark plug of the team ) and lineup falters in 2023 ... They are not good in free agency ( adding below quality arms ) because they dont want to spend big money and they haven't done to well in the trades ( some good during the off season , but most trades have been a disaster especially the deadline acquisitions ) ... We should be sellers at the deadline , the twins can't right the ship by August 1st to be contenders because they can't score runs ... Last night's allstar game the players all had fun and laughing. , something I have not seen from our club the past 3 seasons ... Yes a change is necessary , for some players but mostly the coaching philosophy on their interpretation of baseball needs to change .... TIME FOR DIFFERENT VOICES ...

    Push overs usually do ambush us ...

    Week in reverse ... Win 3 and lose 3 , will hover around 500 for the remainder of the season and finish below 500 and for 3 seasons in arow the window of opportunity has been wasted ... For years we have had no pitching , now we have the pitching but no hitting , hard to believe the lineup will turn it around in the second half and be contenders ... We've seen 80 plus games , they are who they are unless some changes are made in their philosophy of baseball .... I don't think the FO really has a plan anymore because the lineup definitely doesn't show like it has a plan ... Another week in reverse and more to come , a 15-2 loss going into the break just killed any momentum ....
  15. Blyleven2011
    You got to know when to trade them and know when to hold them .... This is time to sell and reset for next year ,,, This is not quality baseball and we are wasting the starters ...
  16. Blyleven2011
    This has to be the worst game of the year .... No momentum coming out of the Allstar break ... This game shows exactly what we are going to get in the second half ... Sellers at the deadline and cleveland will be 5 games up and leading the division ... I had doubt that lineup was in trouble this spring but never expected it to be this bad ,,,
  17. Blyleven2011
    I'm still listening and I don't know why ...... I'm a loyal fan but man that is getting very difficult to be ... There better draft someone today that can step right in and help ....
  18. Blyleven2011
    If the twins didn't want to play this game , they should of just forfeited this game and started their vacation ... No harmony to this team ... Not a good outcome going into Allstar break
  19. Blyleven2011
    I'm just going to wait and then bash or praise the pick ... Get it right and I agree don't get cute , we have to build our mid market team with high quality players ...
  20. Blyleven2011
    Yes it has ended similar to last year only earlier this year.... Worst plan I have ever seen , FO is trying to follow the plan like the movie moneyball and they aren't succeeding, but the aberration is they believe it IS ... WHAT A CROCK ...
  21. Blyleven2011
    In most cases for talented players you need 3 years to evaluate what kind of player he might be offensively or defensively ... With injuries of course it can take longer to know if he can fill out his projections or not ...
  22. Blyleven2011
    Atlanta's pitchers also have had time on the IL , some long , some short .... Injuries ; My impression is depression ...

    Seth , Could you please state what the development list really is ? ,,,

    A gem of a pitching performance , truly dominated a poor royals team ... Starting pitching is definitely our strengths this year unbelievablewe have seen 2 shutouts pitched in the same season ... Hitting still has a ways to go , we'll see how it plays out against Baltimore , we need to at least win the series at home against a better team like Baltimore ...
