    Garver two home runs after a time with the Saints; time to send Kiriloff and Larnarch down to learn what ever Garver did .

    Losing Simmons means more losses for the Twins, period. His throw to first yesterday without being set and both feet in the air is some thing the Twins need BADLY to not be even worse than they are now. They are fools if they lose him.

    Stealing nothing; if they are good enough to make the big league, they will. If they do not make it it is their lack of talent and nothing more.

    Had he given up 1 run, he would have lost, blaming him makes no sense.

    Why are Jeffers and Rortvedt BOTH still with the Twins; they make Sano's at bats look like Ted Williams.
  6. RpR
    What more lousy fielding?
  7. RpR
    One more double play and the Twins will have hit into as many double plays as they have hits.

    Gordon showed what he can do yesterday, and many time before; it is not pretty.
  9. RpR
    Gordon should be sent down NOW.

    If they cannot excell in Minor Leagues, they will be lousy in the big show. Fans DO NOT pay to watch players get their butts handed to them.

    The get rid of the veterans and it will be an insult to those who buy/bought tickets. I wonder if any team has been held hitless for two games in a row, if they bring up the wonderless kids from AAA the Twins may be the first.

    Larnach 0 for 6, Kiriloff 0 for 7 yep lets get rid of the veterans and see what the AAA boys can do.

    Rogers seems to have forgotten where the strike zone is.

    I am just saying what the article on MSN sports said about supposed elite prospects; the article said he was not what was expected. Tigers designate one-time elite prospect Nomar Mazara for assignment (msn.com)

    HMMM, Detroit is: w 5 L 1 vs Seattle W 5 L 2 vs Houston W 2 L 0 vs St. Louis W 3 L 3 vs New York W 7 L 6 vs Kansas City W 4 L 9 vs Chicago For what it is worth: Happ has the two shortest game time wins for Minnesota and Thorpe and Berrios have the two shortest game time losses.?

    For those who think bringing up -- AAA Wunder Kinder -- is what the Twins should do, check online for the article on Detroits "elite prospect" Nomar Mazara. '

    IF, the Twins keep go into next year with Buxton, Cruz, Donaldson, Garver, Polanco and Simmons they will have the base for a DEFENSE, (which is lacking when all of them are not playing) and and offense. You can fill in the blanks, Kiriloff would be good at first and Kepler may return to what is expected, while left field is lacking, for the holes but this team would capable of taking on Chicago heads-up . NOW, pitching, your guess is as good as mine; -- Bench Players Refsnyder and Garlick are better than what they are tossing out there now, Astudillo is as good a catcher as either Rotvedt or Jeffers but bench for Second, Short Stop and Third is open as no one on the team now is better than -- meh.

    Nelson Cruz, in the Minneapolis Tribune: ... "I don't see any reason why we can't bounce back and do something magical," Cruz said of the Twins' postseason chances. "I think we all feel that way." Cruz said his opinion coalesced last weekend, when he and his teammates swept four games from the Tigers, erasing multi-run deficits in the late innings in three of them. "We should feel pretty comfortable, the way we're playing," said Cruz, for the moment overlooking the team's seven losses in the nine games before that series. "The pitching was there, for the most part, and the offense was definitely there. … We just need to keep that going."... ... Jose Berrios, Josh Donaldson, Taylor Rogers and even Byron Buxton have reportedly been inquired about as well, transactions that would signal a more serious reset of the team's future. "I cannot predict the future, but I hope that's not the case," Cruz said. "I hope they keep me around." Even if a trade meant a return to the postseason and another chance to pursue the championship that has eluded him in his 17 seasons? "That might make a difference," Cruz said after a pause. "But I'm not looking to go anywhere." Neither is Rocco Baldelli, who said his approach won't change, even as he experiences his first disappointing season (though not first disappointing postseason) as a manager, after back-to-back division championships....

    BRAVO!

    What happened to Morneau and Mauer had more to do with that than analytics.
  21. RpR
    Rod Carew stole home 17 times in his career and had 353 stolen bases. There is no comparison. He is not even the same caliber as Ceasar Tovar who stole home before Rod Carew in the same inning.

    The saying: The Grass is ALWAYS Greener on the other Side of the Fence -- fits a HUGE amount of the rhetoric being stated here to magically improve the Twins.?
  23. RpR
    Yeah, maybe we can dump them and get a gaggle of Sano, Hicks, Bean type replacements, BRILLIANT!
  24. RpR
    Yeah people who buy Twins tickets love 100 loss seasons. Worked great in the play off last year.
  25. RpR
    Maybe he just like playing baseball.
