    Is this a reverse jinx?
  2. RpR
    His one K verses 4 for Buxton, so Buxton joins him on the bench?

    I watched the game analasyse last night on MLB; they showed all of the Yankees home runs, Correa's at bats and never mentioned Garlick, but, after that they had a long bit on Ryan's new pitch. The called it a Sweeper.

    If Julien stays at this level, he will not be around much longer.
  5. RpR
    To be fair, how Gordon, Larnach, Julien look in two weeks will say more than this moment.
  6. RpR
    Maybe would trade him to the Japanese team for La Tortuga.
  7. RpR
    Vasquez and Taylor would not like their contribution being dissed .🤔
  8. RpR
    Who is doing better?
  9. RpR
    What can they do with Gordon?
  10. RpR
    Replaced by what? A rookie who is a mediocre fielder and then shows his bat is no better?
  11. RpR
    After today, I hope Wallner goes back sooner rather than later.

    Vasquez would be a big help for the Twins, but how does a guy hit 20 some home runs , one year, and not even double gits in any of the rest? Well, I looked at his strike out rate, hmmm.

    It seems Sanchez does not want to be with the Twins (I wonder why) and Jeffers should be catcher no. 3 as even if his bat improves, I truly doubt his defense will ever be even average. They need a top line catcher, so opponents know that in at least x percent of the games it is not run-at-will. All the so-and -so out of the minors will be just great is bloviating; ten or so years ago , Buxton, Hicks, Sano were going to save the Twins, yeah right. One problem the that no quick fix will solve, even when the Twins were well in the lead this summer, the talking heads on news sports, treated them as a side note; mention of the Vikings got near as much blah, blah, blah all summer on the channels I watched.

    If the Twins are going put their future in supposedly up and coming rookies, they will be treading water for a long, long time from what has come up in the past ten years. At that of the boys from the Twins wannbe Minors, Larnach and only one other seem, at this point, of maybe being the read deal, due to hard work on Larnach's part, and simple talent for the other.

    For a team that needs pitching you are probably correct.
  16. RpR
    Not sure why you left them out but: 1961 Killebrew 46 1962 Killebrew 48 1963 Killebrew 45, 'Allison 35, Hall 33 1964 Oliva 32, Allison 32

    IF Correa starys with the twins, Miranda will have a mentor just as Sano did with Cruz; the way Twins rookies are playing with the organizations coaches, I feel bad for Miranda if Correa leaves.

    Never thought I would be advocating for Arraez but , yes, his range is below average but his runs above average per year are 9 at first base and 17 at second.
  19. RpR
    Eddie Rosario with the Twins
  20. RpR
    Then you think it was stupid to dump Rosario, his batting numbers were very good and they still dumped him. You have to if hitting is so important plus if hitting is that important then the rookies who have put up lousy numbers should go back to AAA till they prove then deserve to be up, not floating around the Mendoza line, or traded for veterans whoes already have shown what they can do . The latter is how they got a top line team in 2019,
  21. RpR
    I was not an Arraez fan, but he has earned my respect, and I believe what he does next year will show what to expect in the future and he should do it here. Players also decide to come to a team, and how well they do, by how a team treats its players; I believe the Twins have had a reputation of treating most players as a person who is part of a family; If the Twins start acting like a seraglio , whose players are viewed as demimonde little wonder why a player would not come here.
  22. RpR
    It is either poor defense or poor pitching, you take your pick, but then the MINUS runs per game/year number on a fielder point to defense , not pitching You do not believe them , fine; I do.
  23. RpR
    NO, just NO
  24. RpR
    One run games are often due to poor defense; Twins have lost a LOT of one run games. Also, I remember well when some here were moaning about TOO MANY home runs, and no small ball, they should be happy now, the bomba squad is gone; other teams beat the Twins with small ball, defense put the brakes on small ball.
  25. RpR
    Twins have lost far, far too many games due to amateurish defense.
