    Has the FO ever led us astray in there comments .... YES ..... quality pitching signings at the deadline have been really sparse for a team that is a contender .... Yes it will take prospects to acquire quality pitching ,,, get the 40 man roster trimmed so we don't lose the prospects in the rule 5 draft like we have seen the front office do multiple times , they either release some at the end of the season or expose them to the rule 5 draft for nothing ... The FO got us into this mess with a terrible bullpen , NOW GET US OUT OF IT ... WITH QUALITY PLEASE...

    Major leaguer ( arrreaz ) is so fun to watch at hitting and at first base .... Great team-mate who will play anywhere if you ask him because he loves this game ... Yes he deserves an extended contract , sign the major leaguer
  3. Blyleven2011
    If he is available , pay the man ... Catcher and hitter is a position of need ... Best prospect I like so far but don't think he will be available to us as other teams have interest but if he surprisingly drops in our lap ,,, sign the man

    Duffey knows this is his last season with the twins and his buddies ... Duffey has no confidence in himself and you can see it plainly when he is on the mound ..... He is a mop up pitcher at this stage of his career ....

    Sano Situation

    Blyleven2011 commented on Doc Munson's blog entry in Fantasy GM

    For once I'm speechless ,,, According to Rocco sano has to be hitting on all cylinders before being reactivated , and Rocco says how ever long it takes for that to happen ,,, His words not mine

    We need help in pitching there is no denying it and our FO has not done very good in the trades they have made since they have taken over ... do I expect them to go out and get the best relievers out there so we can hopefully cruise to the playoffs and win one , NO .... CORREA was a free agent signing and lightning only strike once in the same place .... so they add a hitter with great defense and avoid signing any quality bullpen help , but trade away a relief pitcher at the start of the season and really that trade hasn't panned out for us but definitely helped San Diego ... There is help to be traded for but the cost is going to to be high to contend ... Will they spend on quality that is the question ???? .... NO MORE DISAPPOINTMENTS , PLEASE

    As stated the recognition goes to the more high profile teams from the strong east and west coast teams that get more attention ... Yes the Midwest teams almost always get snubbed .... Arraez definitely is one player the fans would love to watch in Los Angeles .... Buxton is healthy enough but his defense alone is not enough to be a starter , but fans I'm sure would like to see him play on the allstar stage ... IF NEITHER GET SELECTED AS RESERVES IT IS DEFINITELY A SNUB ....

    Try for quality relief pitching for quality prospect that are blocked because of depth .... Keep steer for now ...
  9. Blyleven2011
    Re reading the title that the twins have breathing room at the top of Central ..... I think it needs to be 10 games ahead in the standings before we have adequate breathing room ...
  10. Blyleven2011
    The twins are exciting when the pitching is good ,,, seems lately some starters are struggling and we all know about the bullpen .... Let's hope the FO can fix what they didn't fix before the season ... Go twins
  11. Blyleven2011
    3 losses in a row , all pitching disasters ,,, has pitching turned bad with the departure of Wes this quickly
  12. Blyleven2011
    Last year Hamilton walked to many ,,, I haven't followed him at all this year but walks have been his downfall in the past
  13. Blyleven2011
    Until Rocco stops telling FO that he can fix it ,,,, it will continue
  14. Blyleven2011
    The FO got us into this bullpen mess ,,, NOW GET US OUT OF IT ....
  15. Blyleven2011
    major leaguer ( arraez) and Buxton once again at the top of the order spark our offense start to finish .... Couple of Allstars..... Bundy pitches on guts again .... bullpen does okay but was definitely nervous ....
  16. Blyleven2011
    If I was to listen to Rocco's post game recap ( which i never do or his pregame either ) ... Rocco might say we played hard and we never gave up ... My assessment is the twins took the field but didn't come to play ... A team we should beat and we only win 1 game in the series
  17. Blyleven2011
    How to have a success in winning games .... Bundy pitches 8 solid innings with 3 extra days rest , 4 hits , no walks and only 1 run ... cotton pitches a clean inning ... Hitting was contagious with 14 hits , 3 doubles sprinkled in 2 homers , 9 singles a 5 walks ... 11 runs ,,, a recipe for success and they scored 7 runners out 12 in scoring position ...
  18. Blyleven2011
    Do the Twins suck at scoring runs ... To answer it , yes they suck at scoring runs because they have no killer instinct clutch hitting ,,, they don't have the right frame of mind on situational hitting and that is the coaches fault that isn't instilled in them ,,, Got to have a killer instinct when you have ducks on the pond ... I like singles and doubles in situational hitting , it doesn't have to be swinging for the fences all the time ....
  19. Blyleven2011
    A game and a team we should win against but things went ugly ,, no timely clutch hitting and errors .. Bundy tonight , Just reality ,,,, good luck tonight twins

    This article is the best I read in along time here on twins daily and Mikelink45 is right as usual too .
  21. Blyleven2011
    Sure could use kiriloffs bat in the lineup .... He on a tear ,,, play it here in twins territory and help the team pounce on their opponents ... The question would be , who would he replace and where would he play
  22. Blyleven2011
    Yes Arraez has been amazing this year but he has been great to have in the line up since he came up in 2019 ... THE PEOPLE ARE SPEAKING AND HE IS FINALLY GET HIS RESPECT ... Yes batting titles are great and I hope he ties carew with a .388 average or even better .. Here's to you major leaguer ( big leaguer ) go for it ... My comparison of Arraez ( major leaguer) is his batting stance is like qywnn and though he doesn't use his wrist and slap the ball like carew he hits like carew going opposite field , basically he hits it where the pitch is pitched ( that is bat control like carew as well ) .... Love his energy he sparks at the top of the batting order by getting on base ,,, he may be the first twin to score a hundred runs a season in quite awhile which in my opinion getting on base with hits and hitting for average and scoring runs is productive ... he has better speed than some say ,,, Rocco doesn't have either Arraez or Buxton steal bases to cut down on injuries .... His love of the game reminds me of Puckett alittle ,, Puckett was more charismatic though but brought his energy to the game as well and players feed off that ... I hope FO rewards him with an extended contract and he is here for many more twins seasons .... There's nothing better than watching a professional hitter hit even if he doesn't hit for alot of power ...
  23. Blyleven2011
    It was an ugly loss and the 8th time the twins have been shut out this season ... We managed to come away with more wins against Toronto , New York and Tampa than anyone could imagine .... The duffey story ... He entered the game with Tampa on Sunday and did surrender a homerun and a double in an inning , but he also pitched the ninth inning ( second inning ) and got through it without allowing a run ... magnificent
  24. Blyleven2011
    Thanks I didn't catch that arraez name was spelled incorrectly ,,, you do know spell check is not smarter than a fifth grader .... If they don't know Arraez around the leagues fan base they soon will know ... I'm sure there are more that are familiar with him than you think ,,, I'm not sure he even has a slot on a allstar ballot which is a shame because he is classified as a utility player... a write in vote on my ballot when I get around to it ,,, So better get cracking
  25. Blyleven2011
    The FO and Rocco have never been straightforward TO THE FANS with there BS
