Many years ago , if you could throw 95 or higher and throw strikes, you were on the roster regardless of age ... Get Santiago stateside , get sone weight on him and maybe he could move up fast and hit the majors at 20 yrs old with proper coaching ... It could happen and would be a credit to our development squad ...

I had to roll my eyes to the title Cody , I know you love your twins and are loyal to them but this is a ridiculous article ... Where do you get these ideas to write about and your articles that you post are usually a day late and a dollar short ... Rocco is a terrible field manager , he's not a leader but a follower of the FO , he's not a teacher like kelly , gardenhire or molitor , just because a prospect has earned his promotion or in our case promoted to soon he sits backs and thinks they will play in the most difficult level of baseball , players regressing ( is that the players fault or the manager and coaches fault ) , i lean on the field manager being more at fault , the way the twins play with bad Baserunning , throwing to the wrong base , defense in question , no adjustments at the plate , not teaching the hitters to hit to all fields ( when we all know if the hitter hits to all field , the pitcher will have a more difficult time getting the batter out , that results in the batter seeing better pitches ) ... IN SHORTER TERMS ROCCO IS BAD AT FUNDAMENTALS ... Rocco is definitely the worst and 2019 manager of the year was not warranted because the players mostly had career years and he sat back and gave pre and post game interviews , and very bad ones at that ... ( if i had the vote i wouldnt have voted for Rocco ( cash or boone earned it ) because what do you base the honor on , his first year as manager and players having career years doesn't get my vote , managing gets my vote , he was terrible in his first and second years in the playoffs which has no reflection on the vote , just stating 2019 and 2020 ) ...

Hello brock ,,, Twins not playing today , since baseball is in the playoffs positioning stages have you every thought of opening up the game thread on the twins off days so we can comment on the other teams playing .... Cleveland just beat Detroit , Detroit still has the divisional lead at 31/2 games , Cleveland is back in the race ... Hunter Greene throws a gem for the reds , 1 hitter complete game , just a dominant pitching performance , NOW THATS BASEBALL , reds now 2 games back for a wild card position ...

It is what it is because it is who the twins are because of the owners and management are pathetic , pitiful , putrid , piss poor at lack of baseball sense ...

I'm sure your sister in law isn't thinking that way , sure hope your right on the first round exit so you can rub it in ... Twins did put up a good fight against the Yankees , I sure hope that fight continues with Cleveland and they don't revert back to hitting just 3 hits a game ...

You could use those tomatoes to throw at the wiz kid who created this mess ...

Came to twins game thread and it ends up talking about tomatoes ... I wish I had tomatoes to throw at you know who ... Twins scored but not enough to win series ... Cleveland next .. ....

Twins and Colorado are tied for worst record since trade deadline and they've given up the most double digit wins since that time ... Way to go wiz kid , slam the window completely closed ....

We are still outscoring Yankees 21 to 20 in runs for the series ...

Because Rocco finally believed something in his gut that he thought Outman was going to hit a homerun ... It ended up just being gas ...

Would you toss a garden fresh tomatoes in the garbage ???

Ask the Californian's , California burger , lettuce and tomato...

Wiz kid is a sucker for bad trades and the other teams know it...

This has not been funny all season , it just keeps getting worse , yesterday it was reported the twins let most of the scouting department go ... What else will they do ??? ... move the team wouldn't surprise me , norm green moved the stars and survived....

Hitting at will on Bradley too .. Twins need double digits to win series tonight ...

Liked the idea but no cigar as we hit a dp

Let's make this hurt and score some runs , keep it going twins ...

That's a good argument, Winfield was good ....

You watching where are they now too ... Good game for steer with 3 hits , 1 a homerun ...

Surprised someone didn't answer shortrounds question of most athletic , just for kicks ... Wallner ...

Just tuning into top of second , that walk didn't haunt ... What happened i the first inning , dis Bradley walk 4 in arow ????

Don't question kitty kaat , hank Aaron was the best player , and really he never did slumps , very consistent hitter ...

Ricky Henderson , HE'S SO FINE, HEY RICKY ... OZZIE THE WIZARD TO ...

It is hardly a laughing matter , but then it is ... What next ... Sell the team please , the value of the team will be less than 1.6 billion Forbes quoted back in January , this January the pohlads will awaken with a team worth 1.2 to 1.4 billion ....

Last night Matthew's seemed to be just a thrower , not a pitcher ... To many pitches in the heart of the strike zone and the Yankees hit and hit and hit again ... Zebby needs control and last night he had no control , he has a good fast ball and he needs to throw it at different eye levels for it to be effective , last night he wasn't doing that , when he had 2 strikes on a batter he should have thrown a high fastball to get them to chase , he wasn't pitching last night he was just throwing and the Yankees hit and hit and hit again ... And Rocco sat and sat and sat again , yes we need innings but when a pitcher is getting shelled , the normal thing to do is is change pitchers regardless of whats availablein the bullpen ... Twins did make it an interesting game by fighting back to a 1 run loss ...
