    Julien has been a revelation, but let's not jump the gun. Once the calendar turned to August his bat cooled off. His overall K rate is also troubling. The league may be figuring him out. The question is, can he make the necessary adjustments? Remember last year when everyone was wondering how they were going to accommodate Miranda? The situation will sort itself out. There will be injuries and performance issues.

    Was listening to the game on MLB Radio with the Phillies broadcast team. The way they described it, you'd think that 3-2 pitch to Bohm was about a foot inside. I later saw the replay and laughed when I saw how close it was. Could it have justifiably been called a ball???…...sure. But it was close.

    Can we all finally agree that Keuchel has no business being on a major league roster?
  4. LewFordLives
    Is it just me, or does his swing remind anyone else of Joe Mauer. Quick hands....waits as long as possible. Mauer never seemed willing to change to unlock the power. That worked ok for him.

    Can Julien play first? That way Polanco can move back to second once Lewis is back. Joey Gallo has a had a decent career. He has achieved things that most of us can only dream about, but it is seriously in the best interest of the Twins to move on. He has become a black hole in the lineup. I mean c'mon.....

    I hope the Twins win again today (Saturday). Sunday is Gallen vs. Keuchel. Just sayin ...

    Terry Ryan didn't have nearly the payroll that Falvey has. Yet the results have been about the same. I don't have any confidence in this regime. Some of the moves have been infuriating (Berrios) and others downright baffling (Gallo). They continue to try and build a bullpen on the fly, even though history shows it just doesn't work. Every large contract has blown up in their faces.
  8. LewFordLives
    Not good.
  9. LewFordLives
    It also seems flatter. He used to have good late movement.
  10. LewFordLives
    I suspect Gallo will be gone sooner rather than later. This can't continue.....can it?
  11. LewFordLives
    Twins caught a huge break.
  12. LewFordLives
    I was hoping for some bullpen help.... nothing yet. Maybe the prices were too high.
  13. LewFordLives
    I agree 100 percent with everything in this article.
  14. LewFordLives
    No way would the Twins get a top 100 prospect for Maeda. Civale still has 2.5 years of team control. Maeda would be a rental who is still working back from TJ surgery.
  15. LewFordLives
    No. Cleveland is handing the Twins the division. (Whether the Twins take it or not is another question.) It's been an incredibly frustrating season, but the fact remains they are in first place. If the Twins make the playoffs they will need Gray and Maeda. Pitching and defense can go a long way in the playoffs. Who knows, maybe Correa and Buxton finally catch fire. Better late than never.
  16. LewFordLives
    If I'm the Twins I'd just roll with what they have. If they can't win the division with the current roster they don't deserve to be in the playoffs. If they can get a bullpen piece for cheap, then fine, but they have so many question marks that there's no point in emptying the farm of whatever prospects they have left.

    Having Hader in a Twins uniform would be awesome, but as others have pointed out.... is he the final missing piece? I think most of us would say: "no". I definitely wouldn't give up Raya and Headrick for a rental. Maybe if they had a plethora of good pitching prospects, but they don't.
  18. LewFordLives
    A new low.
  19. LewFordLives
    They have made the most of all of their opportunities.... unlike the Twins.
  20. LewFordLives
    Do you leave Ober in? I would say pull him, but the game is getting out of hand, so why burn up the pen.
  21. LewFordLives
    Will Lyles set a season high in strikeouts tonight?
  22. LewFordLives
    It doesn't matter how hard you throw if a good major league hitter knows what's coming. Duran created that entire situation.
  23. LewFordLives
    He absolutely should have had Lopez. You could tell Lopez was uncomfortable after that pitch that came up and in on the bunt attempt. A fastball down the middle would have put him away.
  24. LewFordLives
    --crickets--
  25. LewFordLives
    His control has definitely been off lately.
