    Interesting that Rocco pulled Smeltzer when things were going well and stuck with Thorpe when he really struggled. This club is never out of it and seem to know it

    I like Big Mike because he pounds the zone. No more pitchers afraid on the mound. My concern with Big Mike is health: I think his body is going to completely fall apart in the near future

    Yea but the Lord isn’t a Twins fan

    I would see how the game goes. If we are in it business as usual. If it gets out of hand I throw in the towel and save all bullets for the last two games

    Double bullpen game. No problem! We our only two starters lined up to take the series and one gets rained

    As TK always said - momentum is the next games starting pitcher. Let’s go Odo.

    Read my post. I didn’t blame them for any part of this season. I merely pointed out that they inherited a good young team. They have done good work with Sano but I believe the reason for improvement in the core is that they are approaching their prime with some experience under their belt

    Bad juju

    Falvine inherited this entire lineup except Cron and Cruz. They also inherited Berrios, Rogers, Duffy and May (and Pressly) and Gibson if that is a positive. They have done some good things but have screwed up plenty. Let’s be careful about associating every part of this season as a credit to them

    Does anybody find it pertinent that of the hundreds of guys busted for PEDs they all had a story claiming to not have known? I think Andy Petite May have fessed up but that is it. To consider what they are saying as an excuse is silly
  11. Linus
    Wise people judge others by what they do, not by what they say.
  12. Linus
    Like all the other guys that are busted, he’s lying. Isn’t it amazing that all the guys that are suspended have some unfortunate story about how it happened. He was cheating and got caught. Don’t buy the story of him or any other cheater

    Cron has missed a couple of plays in the last few days that have cost us. More sloppy baseball by the Twins and it’s been like this for two months. I guess it is not changing

    I was coming into this thread to say it’s bad juju but I now love the idea of posting the magic number with old uniform pics. Can’t wait for Tony O and Harmon to come around
  15. Linus
    One thing about the game was another sub par fielding day. Odo got in trouble after Cron missed the foul pop followed by Areaz not getting a glove on two grounders within his reach. I believe Cave had another blinger as well. They have to play better in the field

    It seems to me that Gibson was throwing more 4 seamers up in the zone when he was successful. His last few starts seem to be all sinkers down
  17. Linus
    Two seamers are going to move left to right. 4 seamers are pretty straight so the two seamer gives him a wrinkle
  18. Linus
    The only way I bring Gibson back is if he takes 5th starter money
  19. Linus
    They did just a few years ago when he started to go over his head. Before that he had a minimal windup. Thought it was odd at the time to make it more complicated
  20. Linus
    Pretty much FO malpractice here. Might be a rabbit to be pulled out of the hat but a disappointing situation for a contending team
  21. Linus
    Interesting topic. I would go with Morris because of the World Series. However the Cruz signing is easily the best move Falvine have made. The man is fantastic and a great role model for the younger players
  22. Linus
    Rocco is Gardy like in his bullpen management. Just let Duffey pitch when things are going well. You would have got through the game using two pitchers
  23. Linus
    Cruz is the best role model Sano could have. Hope he is paying attention
  24. Linus
    What a pleasure to watch a Twins pitcher throw the ball over the plate. I like Big Mike and think next year he could be even better
  25. Linus
    I think we can disabuse the notion that Falvey is some sort of pitching whisperer. The Twins pitching hasn’t been good since they got here and have made decisions that have actually made things worse
