  1. Even though this series was an insult to Twins fans, it is too early in the year to let it linger in one's attitude.
  2. Roy Smalley, he had 20 home runs by All-Star break and just a handful the rest of the year. Twins missed a big chance, R. Cano has signed with the Padres.?
  3. Or he is facing the Minor League equivalant of the Twins.
  4. .286 with 13 at bats, Celestino is batting .341 with 44 at bats.
  5. Damn if you do, damned if you do not; I still feel bad for Gardner in 1984 when the Twins had their two worst losing streaks when it really made a difference that could not be overcome.
  6. Send all the newbie rookies back down unless absolutely needed. (Then bring Cave back up to put the fear of failure in them. ?)
  7. Hmm, back in the day when sports figures were critisized for being boozing party-hardy dudes, they pitched 9-11-13 or more innings, with rarely more than two pitchers in a game, some times pitching two days in a row. While home runs 470-500 feet were not rare either, so were low digit one run games. I guess these gym ritual, healthy young dudes just have the bloom off of the rose early nowadays.?
  8. If only Arraez had Gordon's speed; Buxton's drop seems rather odd but then no one is doing much except Celestino.
  9. They kept and tried a lot of young guys all through the seventies, the .500 plus or minus seventies.
  10. Right now a lot of the Twins team looks like Sano at bat without the power.
  11. Luck has zip to do with it, lack of good coaches is probably a reality.
  12. This may be all he ever was; Cave came up and looked good, for awhile; Rooker came up and looked good, for awhile....
  13. They are for but what real is , is the problem.
  14. Jeffers should still be in AAA, we miss Rortvedt immensely much better than run-at-will Jeffers.
  15. Out AAA best could not beat the Reds.
  16. WOW, just saw game highlight on the sports news, Thielbar took fielding lessons from Arraez!
  17. Let's see, Detroit lost 3 of their games to Houston 3-2, Minnesota 5-0, 11-4, 5-0; Five to zip, hmm, that is score Detroit beat the Yankees with. As good as it looked , The Twins will be fortunate to win 81.
  18. Either the Twins start doing some base stealing or singles are semi-worthless.
  19. Rookies have shown why they are still in AAA and some probably should still be in AA. At that the vets are being far from good examples on how to do it.
  20. The the defense that killed them often last year is back; so many wanted to see the rookies come up, they have; now send the back.
  21. Well Sixty miles or so North of the Stadium, the sky is now dark and thunder in the distance so I really doubt there will be a game today.
  22. If the game is redone tomorrow, teams will be allowed 10 players on the field, a runner on second and the batter will start with 3 BB.
  23. Unless they restart around Eleven P.M. this game did not exist. I wonder how many home runs were cancelled that way over the decades.
  24. Detroit was swept by Houston but three of those games were 3-2
