  1. So what? Wallner's OPS+ now is 48. Clemens is playing now, and improving, that is what counts is now. so all the peeing and moaning that Clemens is playing, is silly.. He is not a gaping hole in the defense.
  2. What big bat? That is not Wallner. Wallner looks like Gallo's worst years without the good glove Gallo had.
  3. I listened to a few innings on the radio while heading up to Detroit Lakes; the announcers were giddy that Keaschall and Wallner gots hit, of course they said - If this is the start of them improving .... as if they could save the team; although one said of Wallner, - after going 0-19 it is a start.. That Clemens has improved, seems to annoy some here.
  4. Intestinal fortitude - LOL, - You are delusional if you think that term has any thing to do with some here peeing and moaning like spoiled youth not getting what they want in their in infantile wisdom. REAL- to use you poorly chosen term - fans go to or watch games because win or lose they truly enjoy the game. There are , low points worth grumbling about, along with high points worth celebrating, but they do not ramble on and on, with tautological rhetoric from their - all knowing wisdom - of how things should - properly - be/have been - done. To each his own.
  5. Why Wallner has not been sent down is a bit of a mystery, unless they are waiting for his batting average to drop below .100. His K rate is now 37 percent.
  6. To give Jeffers some credit, his caught stealing percentage has more than double in the past two weeks.
  7. Keaschall, Lee and Lewis are abysmal players with the glove, but the Twins have used defense extras to spot fix that problem in close games, in the past. It would be nice if they brought Kreidler up, sent lewis and Keaschall down to St.Paul but that - Might - improve their bats but using Julien as an example , the iron gloves rarely go away. It took a long time before Julien's gaping whole at Second was removed and as you said, St.Paul has no players better, with the exception of Kreidler, and maybe Culpepper. In the next month things might change but right now pitching is the major problem so glove work is probably not a big deal on the FO's mind.
  8. It is amazing how so many here, no matter who, are like bovines who always prefer the grass on the other side of the fence. To them the Twins are not the team representing them in MLB, they act like souteneurs for whom the player are merely courtesans to be used and dumped willy-nilly for monetary reasons.
  9. He would be worse at First where quick agility counts most.
  10. WOW, Jays commit 3 Ks ; the Twins commit 10Ks, my oh my.
  11. It is stuck in my head, and a lot of people who hung around St. Cloud back then.
  12. Two Five Two, Eighty Five Hundred-- Two Five Two, Eighty Five Hundred-- Two Five Two, Eighty Five Hundred --Tomlyano's Piiizza.
  13. For Outman, one good thing is, he has had so few at bats, all it takes is two more hits and his batting average will be higher than Lewis.
  14. That one is gone now but there is another one way over on the West side. The down town area has changed so much, as has the town, that if you went there now you would think you were in a different town. If you remember the Press Bar, the owner burnt it down to spite his wife and House of Pizza downtown closed last year.
  15. He and Fitzgerald both had two run home runs in a game last year.
  16. St.Cloud , Mn used to have three great places to get subs, and back then, hot subs were not around. Hemsing's Deli was fantastic, as were the Deli's Subs in the old St. Cloud State commons school run cafeteria area,, before morons closed those and brought in fast food garbage. Also Clark's subs were down town in the bar and music area. St. Cloud had a great down town area for youth in the eighties.
  17. Firehouse has a fantastic roast beef sub, but it seems if you like a sub shop, better go often as if you do not the subs you like may no longer exist.
