The poor throw to Solano and Solano coming off the bag lost the game. You could see Baldelli knew that , and was very upset with that turn of events but as there were other failings last night he was not going to say it.

Reinforcements Are Coming, Who Loses Out?
RpR replied to Cody Pirkl's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
With 3 strike outs and a walk last night, Polanco would fit right in the the current Twins team. -
MIranda has learned how to field it appears.
-
Please Miranda hit the ball fair or strike out, no double play.
-
Now Buxton has to do some thing other than a strike out or double play.
-
Maybe Gordon can do with his feet what he cannot do with his bat. Not that it matters much, but the Boston pitcher has to bat.
-
16 strike outs for the Twins, is that a team record?
-
Solano coming off the bag is why he was able to go to third, without that, no run.
-
Watch him send it down the third base line.
-
Is there a trophy for a team with the most Strike Outs by batters?
-
Well MIranda and some other Twins are hitting the ball but where a fielder is standing. Still better than Strike Outs.
-
Why was Miranda not any where near Third Base? If the coaches caused, we need NEW coaches.
-
Its Kepler's fault.
-
I know it is ALL Kepler's fault the Twins stink right now. Wait, Cave is gone so a new target to diss is needed.👺
-
You are venting on Kepler; his Baseball Ref. numbers do not back up what you said.
-
They do not have to be on the edge just near it . Two by the graph were ball, if that helps.
-
Did they get a new hitting coach?
-
From watching on ESPN , if the pitch is at the edge of the strike zone, you better swing as the odds are the Ump. will call it a strike for Boston.

Jake (Charlie Hustle) Cave.👍
-
Kepler has nothing to do with Buxton being played as he is or his problems. Just put him in Center Field and not be paranoid about his getting hurt. Right now he is useless.
-
This is not the time for the Twins to be the equivalent of AAA for rookies from St. Paul. If Gordon was not in a massive slump, Julien would not be here, but it is better to let Castro figure his problem out rather than bring Julien up to fail. As nice as his first hit and home run were against NY, probably bad because of the let-down that followed, that has to play with one's mind. I do wonder how many rookies come up, do very well, but then sink with each passing year , like Jake Cave; compared to how many come up, perform sub-average but get better with each passin year.

Preview: Minnesota Twins v. Boston Red Sox
RpR replied to Sherry Cerny's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Why Buxton is D.H. and not Jeffers, is odd to me. Right now Jeffers is hitting, and slimmed down while getting around bases quicker. Garlick is in left field; his numbers against R.H. pitchers last year is not that bad, 3 home runs, but I read a game report from last year where he did well against a right hand pitcher. He said he sees them so seldom, it feels odd, and he is not sure how adjust his batting. This day last year we beat Boston 8 to 3, one of the Twins better series. -
Turn out like Julien? Assuming you're not trolling, how do you mean? -- Assuming you are not trolling -- B.A. .118, fielding skills lacking. You figure it out. Aaron Hicks had 4 straight really good seasons with the Yanks, and now injuries are getting him. Even Rooker is raking in Oakland right now. -- HIcks had two good years where his B.A. was more than 35 points above the Mendoza line, his fielding numbers on average are no better than Garlick's. Rooker's fielding numbers are like Sano at third base. Well then I guess the Twins should have never let them go, they would have made the team so much better. I did not say they would fail , I said that the title saying they would be a success was wishful thinking without proof. The articles headline say they would be some great success -- wishful thinking; that they might be OK, better than average, possible , not a guarantee.

I am putting this here as I do not call a Player a Twin unless he is in the majors so this applies to gents who were called up but went back to AAA. Is it possible for a Minor League, AAA, player to spend near his entire career in the minors? The gent who has the Minor League home run record, moved around some but spent most of his time with the same org.
