  1. the guy just cant pull the trigger on pitches right down the heart of the plate...soooo many called strike 3's
  2. i hear Lewis and Castro are coming back soon.... Lewis is hittin under .200 at AAA.. i dont expect any increase in run production from these two at all.. just two more sub .250 hitters
  3. this team just can not hit.. when your so called All Star K's over 35% of the time ..he cant be counted on anywhere in the lineup . personally i'd bat him 9th. Our best pure hitter is probably France. and one thing they do is beat themselves with constantly running on contact with a man on 3rd. this needs to stop. time and time again we see runner cut down at the plate easily when they do this. this is rally killer. go back to basics ..there is no reason to ever send the runner when ball is hit to the left side of infield. also ..start laying down the sac bunt more when we get 1st 2 guys on.. so often our group of K Kings follows up with the K..then DP ends inning
  4. i think we need to forget about Tonkin.. even as bad as our relievers are ..is he any better ??? answer is NO! Alcala, Jax..etc they're all gettn shelled ..even Duran is not a himself and his 100mph fastball doesnt intimidate anyone anymore. certainly not a guarantee when he comes into the 9th w a lead
  5. exactly ..another K King... the type of player Twins seem to develop over and over again.. a little pop in his bat but no plate discipline...can we please fill a roster with .270 average plus guys and K rates around 20% or lower...please
  6. this team has no clue in situational baseball.. so many times ..1st two guys on ..3rd batter takes called strike 3 right down the pike.....rally killer !! Julien has to be sent down ...for good ...just takes way too many pitches right down the heart of the plate..as do others. Reality..this is just not a good hitting baseball...and any down in minors that can help soon ?? i'd say no team..Keashall can ..but other than that ..there's no one lighting it up down there.. bunch of guys that cant even hit .270 in minors arent gonna come up here and help in the bigs. they would just become more .225 hitters that K over 30% of the time. maybe in 3-4 the crop of hitters at A/AA can become stars.."we need a hero" i just think we're in for a loooooong wait
  7. need to get Stewart up to the Bigs fast and send down Alcala..I knew he would be a problem ...he, as do many Twins pitchers live too much in the middle of the plate
  8. watching this team bat is nauseating.....are they just guessing up there??and our pitchers living in the middle of the plate. gonna be a long year
  9. wont help Twins hitters ..they like to watch strike 3 without swinging
  10. sorry ..there is absolutely no one on this team that could every remotely be considered as clutch.. if i actually had to pick one guy ..if we need a big hit ..it would be Miranda
  11. nope..keep it here..absolutely hate the NFL games in Europe...and i really cant see the players liking it. Americas game..keep it here
  12. nah.... all these K's just make the game very hard to watch
  13. no ..i will not... MLB is so hard to watch with guys like this ...K, K, K , HR.. i'll take a guy like Arraez anyday
  14. Ober has a better chance.....Ryan gets little man syndrome too often thinking he can blow that 93 MPH fastball by anyone..and he doesnt have a great off speed pitch
  15. i'll start believing when that K rate drops below 25% . that goes for all our K kings.. it just takes away the enjoyment of the game watching these guys flail away at ball out of the zone and then watch strike 3 go by. This team is going no where until they cut down on the K's
  16. so sickening when its considered smart to sign someone that doesnt hit .250
  17. i still think Lee will be all star caliber player... Rodriguez..ive never seen play..But Wallner IMO just K's way too often..will never be a reliable 3,4,5 hitter.... unless he starts hitting .280 + , 30 = HR's and 100 RBI's . so sick of the K Kings coming thru the Twins system
  18. Just fix Julien ..get him to swing the bat.. he obviously guesses a lot ...maybe too much "Analytics" in his head ???
  19. gotta agree ..so sick of analytics.... hits, BA, RBI's, OBP screw anything else..and keep K ratio below 20% and if you cant hit .250 you arent gettn paid !!!
