  1. I should know as I have been watching the Twins since they were brought over from Washington, but can a player switch positions during a game?
  2. Baldelli has such a knack for picking bullpen pitchers to screw a good start.
  3. Hmm, it seems the Twins have cock-eyed jinx, or annoying problem; on the days the boys with the best batting averages hit, the bottom boys do not; when the bottom boys have a good game, the higher boys quit hitting, strange indeed.
  4. Another Major League moment for Gordon.
  5. Time for Arraez t arise, which he did .
  6. Especially against a dude who is very good at throwing out runners. Maybe better than a double play?? OK, he probably would be on second now, oh well.
  7. Baltimore swept series from Boston, Houston and split a series with New York, so what the Twins did is no better than them.
  8. Oriioles were assumed to be lousy; Twins were supposed to in the play-offs. Early on the Orioles had some good series; Twins have stunk since the first month.
  9. Gordon almost reduced his good showing but Sano's long reach saved him.
  10. That is why the Twins are the laughing stock of Baseball.
  11. OK , who is ptiching, Duffey or Doofus?
  12. Gordon increased his chance of staying in the Big Show.
  13. Twins need to win 9 games to avoid losing 100, do they play Cleveland 9 times.
  14. Shaw had an average of .196 and hits a home run; Rooker and other sub-two hundred Twins should imitate him.
  15. IF you mean Polanco at short-stop, he stunk.
  16. He was involved with an item that has been taking place as long as signs existed; he just was the one the powers that be decided to use as an example. I am not perfect and I do not look down on others who also are not perfect, at that under any circumstances he would still be better than Baldelli.
  17. There is something really amiss concerning the Minn. Twins; Baltimore has lost 18 straight but their last win was over the Yankee; I check MSN sporting news because it is easy, the Twins are rarely mentioned, teams with worse records are mentioned more often and not just because they are in last place. I personally think the inability of the Twins to beat the Yankees has sport writers , any where looking at them as not being worth mention. Twins should trade Baldelli for A.J. Hinch, he has take a team that was a laughting stock 5 months ago into a team that may catch the Indians for second place.
  18. Baseball is baseball, I have gone to Rox games up here, even when they stink. Money is the big factor now.
  19. It is as much psychological as performance related; had they at least split the series with NY, there is one more game left I know, they psychological bump that would have given them could have worked wonders even with Baldelli as manager and pitching that is mediocre on a good day. With Donaldson not playing third and Simmons in a slump and an apparent contest to see how many players can bat below .220 it is what it is and it isn't much; bring in a bunch of rookies as sooo many here think is so important, and it will get worse. The owners want/need fans in the stands, fan will come to see a competent major league team, not a AAA team playing at AA level. Money ball is not a bunch of math geeks running computations, money ball is fans in the stands.
