  1. I'm really getting tired of third pitch strikes looking , wallner oofda , it's against a position player ...
  2. If we have a pipeline of pitching , Rocco is embarrassing the front office's pitching pipeline of pitchers ... Words of wisdom for the day ...
  3. Yes I agree , but he's got to go just the same , 2 outings for the Twins and both bad ...
  4. Is that the MO of our front office, every teams need pitching , and our FO seems to find the garbage in the dumpster , yes he's got to go ...
  5. In the sixth inning he was tiring and missing the strike zone , I commend Murphy for letting the kid to comeback out for the seventh , it just wasn't meant to be ... It was nasty stuff and I wasn't thinking of wallner to break up the no hitter ...
  6. How true , what's our record with the city connect uni's ....
  7. Not today , that's for sure ... Turning our to be a nightmare ...
  8. On a good twins day , Can anyone actually say the twins play fundamentally baseball the way Milwaukee does ...
  9. I think the kid is tiring , Milwaukee might get the no hitter , but the kid might not finish it , no idea what Milwaukee's manager does ...
  10. For those that don't think Vazquez deserves a roster spot , I'm sorry but I do ... I know closeness only counts in horseshoes , hand grenades and shaving but Vazquez gave it a ride and because baseball is a game of inches , missed getting our first hit ...
  11. There has only been one Mark Fidryck ( the bird ) and Joe isn't coming close to mimicking him ...
  12. I think proves just said it was a record for Milwaukee pitcher
  13. For those that don't think Clemens is worthy of a roster spot , I'm sorry but I do .. He's played good defense wherever he has played and probably the best pickup the twins signed once the season started ... He has contributed with the bat to , though it has cooled some ...
  14. I am really tired of these third strike looking at bats ...
  15. How many years have we been calling for a righthand hitter that plays outfield , even our FO has said so but they continue to give up on trying to find that thumper that hits against righties and lefties ... McCrusher wasn't given much of a chance except to sit on the bench and get rusty and he hasn't played the same since his return to AAA ( what did falvèys professionals do to him ) , they brought up a shortstop that they didn't play either and we have kiersey Jr who plays defense and pinch runner ... Makes no sense to bring up a player just to sit them , find the right player and if the FO ( do what they do best ) go dumpster diving and hope the get lucky ... I don't have the answers why we can't hit lefties , blame it on the hitters but the FO hasn't done enough to fill that righthanded need either ... Let's get some life in this team ...
  16. Last year the twins released cavaco and Houston claimed him ... Houston has converted him into a pitcher , no idea how that has translated for him ...
  17. Trades before or at the deadline : Castro and paddack from the list OP ,, Castro has plenty of value to a contending team as utilility player , paddack has value as a starting pitcher if he stays healthy can eat some innings as a back end starter and then in the playoffs move to the bullpen .. teams look for relief pitchers to strengthen their roster at the deadline , I don't think the twins will trade coloumbe , but there is a chance of the twins getting a offer for Stewart , Sands or Duran they may find hard to turn down ... France on cheap contract will stay but could be needed as a bench player for some team ... every team values defense in centerfield so Bader has a little value at deadline ... In my opinion on expiring contract candidates to be traded would be Castro and paddack , I also see Stewart, Duran and Sands as possible trade candidates with some team control ... We'll just have to wait and see how the team plays going forward , im sure we will be sellers or should be sellers ...
  18. No idea why they aren't hitting left handers and yes we saw plenty of lefthanders on this road trip , Martinez was given the qualifying offer last off season and he accepted , so he must of had a good 2024 ... What's Milwaukee throwing at us , lefthanders ???
  19. I missed watching the game and had to look at box score ... Incredible they got 17 hits and double digit runs , all starters plus Bader got at least 1 hit , homerun barrage, some with a runner on ( thats a step in the right direction )... I don't know what got into them ( hitters ) , I've watched through some pretty lousy games and then they have this great exciting game like this that I missed ... I'll take the win
  20. Buxton is the closest we have to a homerun hitter , he bats leadoff and isn't used properly to utilize his skills , if he gets on base they don't have him steal a base ( he hasnt been thrown out stealing a base yet this year ) , he can be a run producer if he bats 3rd in the order and others get on base in front of him , the construction of the batting order is mind boggling , your best hitter should be batting 3rd ... I wish we had a Judge type player to consistently hit homeruns but if we did he would only hit solo homeruns because nobody is getting on base , it's very hard to have any confidence in our offense ...
  21. As much as would like the twins to succeed , I just don't have any confidence they will ...
