  1. Couldn’t agree more. It’s been the same for several years and yet the FO sticks to their “process” which doesn’t work.
  2. Gray is not getting traded because a team would have to give us something better than the comp pick. That won’t happen for ten starts of Gray.
  3. If they can solve the right handed hitting outfield problem with 3 years control I would move E Rod.
  4. I see the problem as this: he’s another prospect that can hit but is really a dh for a position. This means the bar to clear for his hitting is really high. I hope he clears it.
  5. I would dust off the Time Machine and go back to the last several off seasons and acquire a good right handed hitting outfielder and 3 bullpen arms so I wouldn’t have to pay exorbitant trade deadline prices.
  6. Castro s outfield play has caused 3-4 runs against in the last two games. Defense matters.
  7. This. Max appears to have lost a step and doesn’t play the field with a great deal of intensity anymore.
  8. None of this means a thing as he has worked a handful of innings. It’s more a commentary on the current state of our bullpen.
  9. Max doesn’t have the same intensity in the field. I no longer think he is an elite fielder.
  10. If the Twins did this even in part to get Lopez closer to his family then I will give the FO a sincere accolade.
  11. Two bullpen arms and a competent right handed hitting outfielder. You could copy and paste this every year for as far back as when they obtained Jake Cave. One would the the genius boys would see a pattern here.
  12. This not the fault of Moran Pagan or Ortega. They are trying their best. This is not Rocco’s fault as he has to use someone other than Duran and Jax. The FO assembled this pen and once again it’s not good I’ve been predicting this since spring training. They have their special plan for building bullpens and it doesn’t work but they are too stubborn to change. So we will use up more of our thin farm system to fix this at the trade deadline.
  13. This. I’m not a huge fan of Falvine but they really made some key acquisitions. Farmer has been extremely valuable as has Taylor and others.
  14. Seriously this is Legion Ball stuff and it happens way too often.
  15. Not anywhere close to taking the risk of getting thrown at third when you can be in scoring position at 2 nd. The percentages aren’t even close.
  16. BS. This is a basic play. There is no point in trying to gain 3 rd base on that play. If you don’t know why then you don’t know baseball which is apparently a problem with the Twins.
  17. That was a Celestino level baserunning play. I cannot believe how these types of happen in the big leagues. Stupid!
  18. I know this will be an unpopular opinion as he is everyone s darling but Julien is flailing the last couple of days. He’s always had plenty of swing and miss in his game and it’s showing up now. Hopefully temporary.
  19. I also don’t see either with a lot of trade value. The Gallo signing has hurt us in a bunch of different ways including these two drifting in the wind. I would trade Larnach because he has given no indication that he can hit MLB off speed stuff and the league knows it.
  20. Happy Jeffers got to be the hero after taking one under chin. Really impressed with Tim Anderson at bat against Duran. Short compact swing that resulted in a bullet to right center. Wish the Twins had more swings like that.
  21. Sure glad they didn’t lose the game because of that double steal. With Julien s arm I can’t believe they even set the play to throw through. Vasquez should have held the ball as he could see the jump the runner got and Julien need to take two steps in cut the throw and mail the guy at home. On the bright side the Twins are making fewer of these types of plays compared to earlier in the year.
  22. Seattle needs a left handed hitting outfielder Gallo or Kepler or both for Teoscar Hernandez. We maybe would have to throw in a prospect and or eat some salary.
