  1. They have a choice, learn to beat the Yankees and Dodgers like Kansas City and other bottom rank teams did or be the laughing stock of baseball from fly over country.
  2. Is there a chart for Minor leaguers that shows like Baseball Ref. a AA or AAA players defense ability?
  3. Is there a chart that shows how often base stealers scored against Minn. this year. I mean the Twins never hit into double plays. But then with Jeffers it was steal as often as opposing team wished.
  4. That is why this is probably one game they will win.
  5. Correa will do what he wants,, period; all the throwing of the bones prediction is a waste of time.
  6. Jake Cave has regressed greatly, maybe desperation, as he watched pitches down the pipe go by and swings at crap, although Twins players seem to do that a lot, while the Twins struck out 16 times last night, Cave had four of them. Astudillo probably would have done better against Verlander last night than the rest of the team.
  7. Buxton , Kepler and --- Cave are their best base stealing players, but the Twins prefer to get put out via double play verses putting stress on opposing pitchers via base stealing,?
  8. Gordon is not a good center fielder, for those who trashed Rosario in left. he is too much like Rosaro minus a strong arm. Cave is a better Center fielder but his bat has gone cold - again - where as, Gordon is still hitting fairly well.
  9. That Cave has regressed is sad after a fairly decent early return, but at that, all players seem to watch a first pitch ,in the strike zone. zip by and then swing at garbage. There is some thing very wrong with what some one who coaches is telling them.
  10. Gordons flailing does? LOL, LOL, LOL
  11. Not from what we saw yesterday; Gordon looked like Gordon always looks in center.
  12. Cave caught a similar one yesterday.
  13. As I said earlier in this thread, WHY is Gordon in center, and not Cave.
  14. With simple talent as the decider, Mauer was the better player; best Twin ever Harmon Killebrew.
  15. After watching Cave's quite compentent catch in Center Field yesterday, why is Gordon in Center Field?
  16. What Crystal Ball did you look in that says Larnach, who was hitting .231 will return to the form he lost weeks before his injury (he was a double hitting monster at one point) and his arm is no better than most who played left field .
  17. No one here is God, no one knows what he will do, or what is in his mind (except maybe he likes Miranda) I think if he and the rest of the infield played as was common, till some dork decided math was better tool than watching with ones eyes, that starting a team is a starting team, 98.6 percent of the time. Not knowing who will be recieving your throw or throwing you the ball brings uncertainty, uncertainty brings less than optimum performance. (Twins had a Triple Play yesterday and only fate, Correa is a TALL Dude, stopped the throw to second from going into Center Field.
  18. "Yes siree Bob" - an even worse record with younger players, showing why they are still in the Minors.
  19. Yep, I remember last year when so many would lament - we need more than solo home runs, small ball wins games - well, they quite hitting home runs.
  20. Well going back to the triple play, it was only good fortune that the throw to second did not go into center field, not a good game in any way.
  21. It seems the Twins hitters have not only to bunt and steal, but how to foul off pitches.
