    I renamed the twins a few years ago ( you can look it up ) ... The Minnesota Possums , they play dead at home and get killed on the road ...

    Tell me if you have heard this before , our streak of good fortune when we went 4 games over 500 was another mirage of what this team is , last years winning streak was the same mirage , this team just can't find any kind of consistency with the bats ... You have to tip your hat that Ober gave us a quality start and is pitching well to start the season ( even if his velocity is down , he's bull dogging his way to pitch a decent game ) ... We'll try it again on Sunday and see if something raises from the dead ...

    It was a depressing loss , twins tie the score and turn the momentum in their favor ( for a brief half inning ) only to have the bullpen blows it again ... We have to figure out a better bullpen ( better roles for the current BP pitchers ) even if we start dumpster diving again ...

    Martin has patience ... Martin has a good eye , draws walks and doesn't swing at lousy pitchers pitches ... Martin gets on base , can steal bases mostly against righthanders ( lefthanders he has trouble reading ) ... Martin should be playing alot more than he is now , rest him if he needs it but play him , he won't hit for much power but he is a hitter 3 out of 10 AB ... Right now Martin is the hottest twins player in the lineup , play the hot hand and see what you have ... Lots of first round draft choices on this squad and he's the best of the bunch right now ...

    We gave it a best shot effort ... Typical way the twins end a threat , the strike outs always do us in ...
  6. Blyleven2011
    OUCH , DOUBLE OUCH ... DAMN DEPRESSING TO TIE THE SCORE AND GIVE IT RIGHT BACK ... We arr not giving up in the ninth ...

    Nothing wrong with small ball , now the runner is on third and threatening to score ... I hope they pull a twins move and fail to score ...
  8. Blyleven2011
    Well we just made it interesting , hope nobody went to sleep ... Ryan off the hook , bullpen game now ( do we have a chance with the momentum change ) ... Go twins ...
  9. Blyleven2011
    Do twins players do slumps , I thought they are who they are ...
  10. Blyleven2011
    Both teams in a bad funk right now , can the twins win the series tonight , just about game time so we shall see , Ryan going tonight , will it be his A stuff to stiffle the mets hitters ... Win one will ya boys ...

    Hello doc , Is Replacing Outman out of the question , would Emma be a better bat than Outman , could Emma be a clutch fearless hitter that is lacking when the opportunity presents itself ... Give Emma a chance , you and I and the rest of the fans want the youth , but only if it's deserved , emma had a good spring training and I was surprised he didn't make the 26 man roster ... Have a blessed day , go twins for the series win ...

    According to RpR , he's saying there's not a chance ... RpR loves defense like we all do , Rodriguez defense has been questionable and his strikeouts are about the same as Wallner but he should make up for it when he does make contact ... Outman is here for speed and supposedly his defense , is Rodriguez speed just as good as Outman , if it is , then Rodriguez can be the pinch runner when he is on the bench ... I am not a decision maker in this organization and they usually can't make a decision and get it right ... Nobody is going to claim Outman ...

    Thanks Jamie , I read 40 and that was enough for now .... Draft choices usually startt their pro careers and concentrate on developing their skills to a polished level throughout the minor leagues ... Is there a draftee that has or can be a 5 tool player in this years coming draft ? Just reading their projections and not knowing the individual like you do it's difficult in knowing who to chose ... Thanks ...

    Conner Prielipp had good results , 6 strikeouts , his pitches were working , but curve and change up need some more work on consistency .. Rojas was effectively wild ... Good debuts for them both ... Those of you that didn't see the dugout camera after Buxton's tying homerun , wallner was looking at the ground , no smile , not showing any enjoyment , the rest of the team was jumping for joy as buxton tied up the score ... Wallner just continues to be a head case that really isn't helping the team ,

    I guess you can't hold your liquor ...
  16. Blyleven2011
    Every half inning when the mets are batting it looks like the the twins are playing , vientos runs through the stop sign , aggressive or stupid
  17. Blyleven2011
    Camera shot on twins dugout , did anyone notice wallner didn't have a smile on his face after Buxton's homerun , he was looking at the ground thinking I wish I could do that every night ...
  18. Blyleven2011
    Probably more dogs in the stands than met fans ...
  19. Blyleven2011
    Yes , during the falvine administration , they had no requirements on who would wear a Twins uniform ...
  20. Blyleven2011
    Left handers , Tom Malone , Devin smeltzer , anyone else ???
  21. Blyleven2011
    Just kidding aside , Liriano throws a no hitter and he walked 6 batters 🤣 ...
  22. Blyleven2011
    Woods-Richardson seems like a slow starter every year , as a fourth or fifth starter I dont think his job is in jeopardy until the season ends ... He's definitely consistent on pitching only 4 or 5 innings usually , some have said that he could be better as a bullpen arm so he wouldn't have to face a batter more than once ... He'll remain a starter for now ...

    I was on the twins thread with very little optimism against the mets pitcher McLean ... McLean , 9 up 9 down with 7 strikeouts , 5 innings perfect game ... 6th inning , wallner of all players breaks the perfect game with a single , buxton on his third attempt against McLean hits a 2 run homerun ... My Optimism changed , our players momentum changed , twins tie game in seventh and chase McLean ... Twins go to ninth with a slim chance to win , score tied at 3 , their closer couldn't command his pitches and walks the lead off hitter ( you don't walk the lead off hitter or the second batter ) after that the twins kept battling with good at bats , Clemens puts the ball in play with a bunt and the force play at 3rd was late ( put ball in play and make the other team field the ball ) , bases loaded now , a slim chance has dwindled into an Optimism of a win , Twins tack on 2 runs , Sands pitches his second inning in relief and the Twins secure a slim chance win with a victory to break the 4 game losing streak ... Mets found a way to succeed in losing the game and now have a 12 game losing streak , money may buy you love but it can't buy a baseball team ... It wasn't a good game for the twins for 5 innings but then after it was ... Good win ...
  24. Blyleven2011
    Nice to be in the win column , I now think a series win could e doable ..
  25. Blyleven2011
    The mets found a way to lose it , remind you of another team ...
