  1. On a live interview on WCCO radio, Buxton said he hates, anything but playing in the field every day, it ruins his timing ; Baldelli may be doing him more harm that good with his willy-nilly strategy.
  2. If they cut the Mustard, they will stay in the Big Show, if not they will become like Jake Cave, life time Minor League or be traded. Fielding is and has been for a long time more important to the Twins than the bat; none of the rookies have bedazzled with their gloves. If they cannot equal Donaldson/Simmon/Polanco -- Ushela/Correa/Polanco next year, this team will be, at best, back to the .500 + or - a few, of the Seventies until they bring in some top shelf vets as they did in 2019.
  3. The Twins need a regular line-up, where the same 8 guys play together at MINIMUM 70 percent of the time; they have turned into a advanced AAA team and will never get to the World Series doing that.
  4. If Buxton does not play against the Yankees, the Yankees chance of a sweep increase.
  5. How he does against the Yankees, hitting and fielding will say a lot.
  6. Twins funk vs the Yankees started after Kelly left; if Baldelli can end it, his job is secure for next year.
  7. Twins are paying the price of too many rookies, for any reason, and Jeffers.
  8. The Twins may have gotten better use out of this pair if they still carried an emergency catcher on the roster, a role that Willians Astudillo, who is now with the Marlins, could adequately fill. I think if I ran the Twins, Sánchez would be the primary starter, but when we got a bit of a cushion, I’d be aggressive about inserting Jeffers, even in the early stages of the game. Playing the game state with catcher substitutions may be worth a few runs, but you would need some sort of third catcher in case of injury. Carrying José Godoy for this purpose is probably not the best use of roster resources.
  9. Yup and some want the Twins to bring up more rookies to learn what they should in the AAA.
  10. Larnach has had a good bat, now its time to take it to the Tigers.
  11. If they can return to the days when the Yankees were just another team, THAT, will probably set a tone for the rest of the season.
  12. Twins are performing like they are still playing the Royals. Bad feeling about when they face the Yankees.
  13. St. Paul calls the wind Miranda.
  14. Jeffers at DH, maybe one of the pitchers can handle a bat.
  15. Better defense? Caught stealing: Jeffers - 7% : Sanchez - 14% Wild Pitch: Jeffers 5: Sanchez 4 Stolen bases : Jeffers 14: Sanchez 12 Even Stevens on passed balls: 2
  16. Playing some where else.?
  17. Gor-Lar are teaming up today.
  18. Other posters think you and I are wrong about the umps. , so we must be wrong.
  19. Temp. return of the Bomba Squad.
  20. From Gamecast that umpire is dyslexic.
