  1. Now maybe, he will do like a number of Twins rookies and come out of the gate looking like the next Joe Mauer. The Twins could use that right now even if he sputters out after awhile.
  2. That I disagree with as , on Gameday, they let most first pitches that are down the middle of pipe go by and then chase a lot of crap.
  3. "Why Does It Feel Like We're Living the Same Season Over and Over?" For those here, who are veteran Twins fans from the get-go, this since the 70s feels a lot like the Twins results norms, especially late season collapse, which started in 1969-70. Back when it was a LOT harder to get into the post season, it seemed to me, to be one made one's own fortune but now with not making the post-season usually meaning your team had huge faults, it is not as easy to just let go till next season. At that, it seems, to me, that the Twins team used to be just that at least in the first 10-20 years. A lot of bench players played most or all of their career with the Twins from 1965 team. Now Cal Griffith was not a multi-millionaire for whom baseball was a hobby, baseball and the Twins were his only business. He had to quit because he did NOT have millions from other enterprises, to fall back on, so he could not wheel and deal like they do now. Still the players that were the Twins "team" to me, now, included Polanco, Buxton, and Kepler. Now there were others earlier that were here and are gone for years now, but those three were regulars , to me, at that; right now , Farmer, Kepler and Polanco are having a year that would be a spark in the Twins Lack-Lustre season, but then maybe the Twins Org. takes the fire out of players souls, i.e. they want to be any where but here.
  4. The game served Julien well, especially in the field; time will tell if is a fluke or change. His head is what is holding him back; if he fixed it up there he has a future. I am sure his odd double play will make some shows; I will try to check a few to see what they saw.
  5. Well, well, well France gets the winning hit.
  6. No Twins did it to them selves.
  7. Now Julien can make it his game to remember.
  8. Twins need game winning hits as they are not real good this year in extra innings.
  9. Two Ks so Gasper is not the only problem, but he chased a ball.
  10. Castro is not a good infielder, any where.
  11. Odd ball game going in Twins favour.
  12. With this umpire, pitches on the edge are a guessing game.
  13. There are a lot of Twins whose trade was Not a good idea,
  14. Three more runs means a Mets grand slam will not win the game.
  15. France is chasing garbage pitches.
  16. If the Twins win this one, could be the start of some thing big; if my math is correct, the Twins record now is the same as it was last year, before the big winning streak.
  17. Acuña trying to show if Julien can make odd plays, so can he..
  18. IF Julien had fallen with his glove, by fortune hitting First Base , you would have thought it was a great play. LOL
  19. Julien , could have , just tossed to first as the runner leaving the base path was already out, but this was FAR more entertaining.
  20. Typical ugly play by Julien, but it WORKED!
