  1. If you need to break a losing streak , play the Twins. Larnach does his best imitation of Sano, again.
  2. Yep trade the talent that makes the Twins worth watching -- lose 100 this year, bring the supposed raw miracle workers next year and lose another 100, wow, 10,000 at the stadium will be a good night.
  3. Why? Change a team that loses for bad pitching to one that loses with even worse hitting? Four of the gents that helped the 2019 team to the record it had are gone and doing pretty well else where, so lets get rid of the rest?
  4. They won't be a serious contender till they get a manger who wants to win the World Series , not one that makes excuses for pissant playing. Detroit who is supposed to be a worse team than the Twins swept the Yankees in New York, (hmm, they have Schoop and Grossman, we have Cave and Arraez) until the Twins get a manager who insists on doing that, supposed rebuilding will just be more decades of a losing team , without exception. They need to try to win now, not in 2031.
  5. I do not know where the asinine Fantasy Baseball crap came from but it looks like that is the same mindset the Twins supposed front office has when it come to baseball as a whole.
  6. Till they bring in veterans that are still at least decent for two years after which they sell them, bring in the Minor league wonder boys that the so called sports writer experts fawn over.and then the hit-less, pitch-less wonder team returns. In reality until they get a manager who does not expect to lose to the Yankees, they will remain pathetic. Detroit swept the Yankees in New York, since Kelly no team every team manager has been fodder for New York.
  7. Bring back Astudillo and send Sano back to single A.
  8. Send Alcala down and bring Albers up, would not be any worse.
  9. Ah, Rocco's choice from the bullpen is so, so much better than Berrios.
  10. I will take 45 rbi over any computer geek number that Baldelli is using to turn the Twins into a farce.
  11. Rosario as 45 rbi, and seven stolen bases with a batting average that was 4 points higher than Larnac, so it seems you are wrong.
  12. Larnach is slow afoot, weaker arm and has yet to show he is as good with a bat. I would bet a large amount the Astudillo would have caught the ball Jeffers just missed; half of the twins newbies fielding skills are still in A ball.
  13. Larnach seems to be doing an imitation of Sano as far as strike outs go.
  14. This is how the White Sox beat the Twins the first game , maybe they can get a payback.
  15. If the Twins had played all year, minus pitching, like they are playing now, they would have won at least five more games.
  16. Here again is where they miss Rosario; Larnach is slow and has what looks to be a very weak arm. Had Larnach not bounced the ball to Donaldson there would have been no interference but Donaldson had to run back to get the ball. Rosario had strong arm.
  17. Wow, Baldelli has real pitcher pitching, why doesn't he crap on Celestino or Gordon the way he did on Astudillo and let one of them pitch. Better yet let Rortvedt pitch and Sano catch.?
  18. NO more losing seasons and turning off of all but die hard fans. As I said in my first post I heard this newbies bs about Buxton, Hicks and Sano around ten years ago and gee the only really good year was 2019 when they had a lot of import veterans not the newbies that so many think will be some sort of miracle. Arraez replaced Schoop , compare their numbers this year and Schoop was not a fielding liability.
  19. Yes but some want to trade the veterans that are getting hit and scoring runs and bring in more newbies that like to watch strike three go by without swinging the bat. Oddly the announcers are babbling about needing good starting pitching when it was the bullpen that threw away at least half of the losses this year.
  20. Is Larnach slow a foot or just playing in the wrong spot?
  21. The difference between him or Arraez playing third is 3 or 4 opposing runs a game.
  22. Yep, we need another 100 loss season losing Cruz and Donaldson will guarantee a new record loss season, and another losing season next year, and just maybe break .500 two years from now but I doubt it. A quick return to the wonderful seventies with only die hards still watch or attending but then the Twins wre probably embarrassed by having the only winning post season record on history and just want to be like the rest of the Minnesota pro teams.?
  23. Why is Rortvedt catching and not Astudillo, his fantastic hitting ability?
  24. Yep, direct route to send Twins to another 100 loss season, brilliant.
