    That missed catch just cost Correa any chance at a gold glove .... Had he made the catch and completed the double play he would have catapulted to the top of the list for gold glove ... He took his eyes off the ball , with the runner running in front of him , got to follow the ball right into the glove ....

    He did the same thing with JAX , Jax didn't have his stuff and Rocco left him in and again cost us a chance to keep the score close ... There is a 3 batter minimum that Rocco seems to ignore , he just wants 1 inning from a pitcher regardless of the outcome ....

    Very reasonable selections .... Would be nice to see another lefthander in funderburk and sorry Gallo but you are of no help to the team and funderburk can have his roster spot on the 40 ... We need pitching and can only carry 14 pitchers in September , funderburk makes the most sense to me ..

    Carew no questĺon ... I liked killer and tony o but that year in 77 was so special for a Twins fan to watch Carew ,,, No twin will ever come close to topping Carew's production that year ... Not the way they play the game today ....

    Kepler has always been a streaky hitter ... Hope he keeps it going and would like to see Gallo gone by playoffs , he can't help us there ...
  6. Blyleven2011
    If the Twins want to be considered a homerun hitting team , they need to write a letter to mlb office to please bring back the juiced ball ... That magic only happens once in a blue moon but they keep trying ... I keep writing letters to the FO to bring back the singles , doubles and triples .... Bring back the excitement , solo Homer's are not game changers or exciting , the strikeouts are embarrassing ...
  7. Blyleven2011
    Correa's numbers surprise me , with my eye test watching him , his fielding and that arm should be consideration of a gold glove ...
  8. Blyleven2011
    Strikeouts and leaving bases loaded have been horrible all season ...
  9. Blyleven2011
    The piranhas of the early 2000 ... The possums of 2020 through 2023 , they play dead .... Tip of the hat to kuechel for his control and keeping us in the game ... Bullpen held the win .... Again 16 strikeouts , again that sucks ...
  10. Blyleven2011
    They are up to there old tricks , back to 15 strikeouts , getting bases loaded and no outs and then nothing , 3 outs in a row, strikeout , strikeout then pop up ... Just crappy adjustments , and really hard to get excited and I'm not totally blaming the players , it's also manager , coaches and front office and the umpires ... I'm sticking to my story ....
  11. Blyleven2011
    If Jax can't get out of the inning with less than 15 pitches , you know he doesnt have his best stuff ... He threw 33 pitches today , come on Rocco he only has to pitch to 3 batters minimum , pitching coach and Rocco should have been able to see he didn't have his best stuff today and replaced him ...

    Just let the kids play the game , they are all talented players that are destined to play in the major leagues , some will have a long career and maybe some won't ... It's not whether you win or lose , it's how you play the game ...
  13. Blyleven2011
    Wallner was recalled on July 15th to replace Miranda on the 26 man roster .... Since recall , 92 at bats ... 9 home runs ... 22 rbi's ... Scored 18 runs In a month he has been productive , on pace for a full season his numbers would be mvp worthy ... It was a great at bat and a game changer last night , we needed the win and you were the one that stepped up and won it , thank you wallner ...
  14. Blyleven2011
    But there has been performances that have been the issue with the team and nothing has been done about it , there still in lineups and FO is waiting for them to have a turn around season ... As for injuries , can't believe it is happening again and again ...
  15. Blyleven2011
    It's nice to have some talent ,,, FO said at deadline we are playing with this lineup construction , no trades were made , nobody was dfa'd , we did add floro in a trade and Luplow was acquired on a waiver ... The vets are still playing and some shouldn't be , the FO isn't going to eat its words and will continue this playoff bound fiasco ....
  16. Blyleven2011
    Sorry Twins fans ... I just don't see any advantage , the Twins will play 500 ball the remainder of the season...
  17. Blyleven2011
    Don't really care what the right word is , The point was the teams , Cleveland and Twins are the same as the week before ... Cleveland was a seller at deadline and still hanging in contention for the division , maybe even Detroit has a shot too ... I haven't followed the standings much this year , bit ill go check them now ...
  18. Blyleven2011
    Week review ... Cleveland bad and Twins are bad ... Standings pretty much the same as the week before ... Seems like No one wants to play to win , some is going to limp in and win this weak division ....
  19. Blyleven2011
    GALLO , game ball , unbelievable .... Team effort , Taylor's defense is very good ....
  20. Blyleven2011
    Let's hope we are above 500 at the end of the season .... Sad but true ,,, 1 step forward and 3 steps back just isn't going to cut it ... Sure glad I was listening to game on radio while driving and didn't watch it , I'm. Ready to toss the TV and I probably would have last night ... Last night against the Phillies showed exactly what is wrong with team and the construction of the team from FO , hope ownership will toss something this off season ...
  21. Blyleven2011
    It's so repetitious day after day , no excitement since the 2 walk off wins against the snakes .... Phillies pitcher did not have a win in the majors dating back to last season , tonight he got his first win of the season ... Game started out promising in second inning with Polanco and kepler going back to back with homer ... Noticed the lefthanded veterans got to start against a left handed Phillies pitcher , leaving our younger players sitting on the bench ... Gallo , kuechel , and bullpen , enough said .... Winning streak of 5 , followed by a 4 game losing streak so far ... Good grief ...
  22. Blyleven2011
    The Twins have been jinxed by the Yankees .... They don't seem to be all that elite this year ,,, If they get hot and get the final wildcard slot , bring them on , I think the Twins can win 1 playoff game ... We'll see , Twins have to also play good ball to win the division .... No more 1 step forward and 3 steps back or We'll not hang on to the weak divisional title ...
  23. Blyleven2011
    Adding another lefthander in the bullpen should be a priority , funderburk numbers in the bullpen have transitioned into a relief pitcher the past two years ... We need pitching and he has earned a promotion with his solid pitching in the minors ... The others might deserve promotions to but are just depth at the moment ...
  24. Blyleven2011
    I need a dictionary ... I'll just go with what's in my head at the moment .... PATHETIC , PITIFUL , PISS-POOR , PUKIE , PIRANHA PU - -IES ( FILL BLANKS ) unexceptable Twins baseball ... 2 hits today , 2 shutouts in a 4 game series against Detroit and not against their best pitchers .... The Twins have no shame , This shouldn't be happen but reality is telling us this is who the Twins are , RE-READ STATEMENT ABOVE ... Maeda did not deserve the outcome ...
  25. Blyleven2011
    Have fun in Philly land ,,, Watch out for ticket sellers that sell counterfeit tickets ... Hope we win the series ...
