    SSS. Tonight doesn’t make me feel any better about our crappy bullpen
  2. Linus
    Astudillo is my new favorite player. Hot take: he is the best Twins catching option. He is a far superior hitter to Castro and is pretty good behind the plate. He needs to be on the 40 man next year.

    He has been brutal tonight

    I’m sorry I just hit the wall with Dick n Bert. After many years of dealing with the same inane comments and homer orientation I can’t take it anymore. Bert has to go and Dick should go as well. Thanks to all for dealing with my rant
  6. Linus
    Sorry this is off topic but I think they need to worry about the bullpen more than the rotation. As is there are realistic chances they could be competent. As is there bullpen sucks like it has for several years
  7. Linus
    Another athletic play by Astudillo. This guy needs to play every day this month.
  8. Linus
    Anybody that is counting on Tyler Austin to be a regular next year is delusional. He can’t field and he can’t hit anything but a cookie.
  9. Linus
    So he just made one of the most athletic plays I have seen from a twins catcher in quite some time. It’s inexplicable to me how he isn’t getting 75% of the remaining innings
  10. Linus
    I’m surprised that you have that much personal information about Jeter. I want good players and will worry about leadership later. Your mileage may vary.
  11. Linus
    I’m not talking about the clubhouse and whether they believe in him is kind of the question. Gimenez provides nothing for the future including leadership as he will be gone in a month. What is real is that Astudillo has a chance to be a catcher if given a chance
  12. Linus
    I think the whole leadership thing is overblown. I would rather have Astudillo getting innings behind the plate yet Gimenez is playing frequently.
  13. Linus
    The twins have a huge hole to fill in the bullpen. That is where they can make the biggest improvement
  14. Linus
    If he keeps playing like this in the field he won’t be (nor should he be) a major league shortstop. Move him to second where he can thrive.
  15. Linus
    Very strange. We need Gimenez like we need a hole in the head. I generally like Molly but this veteran security blanket thing is silly.
  16. Linus
    I think the characterization that they inherited a mess is inaccurate. The farm system was highly ranked and had quickly supplied Buxton Sano Kepler Polanco and Berrios. There are plausible excuses to give the new FO but this isn’t one of them
  17. Linus
    I like their drafts. Other than that I don’t see anything transformational. They given away substantial talent with their bizarre 40 man roster management
  18. Linus
    I think we should let Forsythe go. Move Polanco to second and sign a real shortstop to a 2 or 3 year deal
  19. Linus
    He obviously not someone to count on for next year
  20. Linus
    That would be your stalwart analytics department
  21. Linus
    So in other words if you have good bullpen arms this will work. If you don’t it doesn’t matter. That’s the boat the twins are in
  22. Linus
    I think the takeaway here is that if your pitching sucks the order doesn’t matter. Let’s worry about getting better pitchers
  23. Linus
    I actually think the wacky lineups are the result of “other info”. This whole 3 groups of 3 thing. Hence Grossman is the lead off hotter for the second group of 3. I’m guessing Molly isn’t a fan but may not have a choice
  24. Linus
    I’m confused how this could happen with all that veteran leadership behind the dish
  25. Linus
    With that stuff, Gonsalves needs to improve his control dramatically if he is going to be a successful big league pitcher
