    Yea but they will hire someone who will do the same thing. I’m not a Rocco fan or hater. He is doing exactly what Falvine wants.
  2. Linus
    Interesting. I stand corrected.
  3. Linus
    Package deal. One goes all go.

    SWR with another well pitched game. The feast or famine offense is starving right now. This is not a recent phenomenon. I honestly think this roster is going to need to be blown up if things are going to change positively enough to win playoff games. And that really can’t happen until the off season.

    And what is the umpire scorecard based on? Certainly not the box mlb uses to grade the umpires. So I don’t think the data is reliable enough to make set conclusions.
  6. Linus
    Fun idea. Have a great time with your guys.
  7. Linus
    I don’t know. This thought has crossed my mind with some of the blind defense of the Twins offered up here.
  8. Linus
    It’s not complicated. The Twins thought they were going to end up with the same deal as the Padres and Diamondbacks which was going to be less money but no blackouts. This was the info given to Provus. Then Amazon bails out Ballys so Ballys put more money on the table but with the usual blackout rules. The Twins of course took the money and had to backpedal on the blackout info.

    Good to see only one walk for Festa.

    I don’t think a trade at the deadline will do any good. This lineup needs a major shakeup. We are going on multiple years of boom or bust performance scoring runs. One guy ain’t changing that.
  11. Linus
    Random meaningless thoughts. A Twins hitting coach getting tossed because he thought the ump was bad at his job is deliciously ironic. I don’t care how many career strikeouts Joe Ryan has. There is more to pitching than striking guys out like not giving up home runs Blaming umpires after every loss is tiresome and pathetic.

    The other problem the Twins have is their streakiness. They are going to need to win 90+ games. That can be done but not if you lose multiple games in a row with regularity. I fear their offense just isn’t good enough to avoid those bad streaks. Kind of like right now.
  13. Linus
    Not sure any Twin has performed at that level. Jeffers for a while but that’s about it.
  14. Linus
    The math gets to be a problem. If Cleveland plays 500 the rest of the season they are a 91 win team. That’s a high bar for the Twins.
  15. Linus
    I don’t see much happening either. They aren’t going to add payroll so that really restricts what they can do. If you are contending I don’t think you can trade Kepler because we have nobody to take his place. They could really use a big bat but don’t really see a path forward for this type of trade.
  16. Linus
    Yea I had the misfortune to listen to a game on the radio. The guy never shuts up. He is really bad.

    The only thing I will say in the Twins defense is NY has had some real duck farts fall for hits in both games early. Of course some rockets as well. Their hitters sure look different than ours with two strikes on them. We continue to struggle in the field - it would be nice for our fielders to help a pitcher out once in a while instead of giving extra bases and outs to the Yanks
  18. Linus
    The Yankee at bats look much more competitive than our at bats. If the Twins are going to beat this lineup they can’t butcher plays in the field like Farmer and Margot in the first inning.
  19. Linus
    People are way overthinking this thing. The Twins made a complete mess of the TV situation. It’s literally their job to make this stuff work. It’s called customer engagement. It’s not my job to switch providers multiple times and pay exorbitant prices for that pleasure. It’s their job to bring the product to the customer. Anybody that says anything different is a shill for the Pohlads.
  20. Linus
    They’ve really been as advertised. Starting pitching has been pretty good but not as good as last year. Bullpen a little better and offense streaky. Adds up to a 88-90 win team. Our perspective is different because the Central isn’t a patsy this year. Royce and an easier schedule should make things a little better.
  21. Linus
    Because that’s not enough. Schobel is a marginal prospect and there are a lot of questions about Raya.
  22. Linus
    Absolutely the correct decision. Both for the Twins near term and Eddys long term.
  23. Linus
    Would definitely be interested but would not include Lee Em Rod or Jenkins. Would include Julien if they are interested and would also throw in one of Varland Festa or Raya.
  24. Linus
    It’s happening…….
  25. Linus
    So who televised the game? Came in to catch the last half the of the game only to discover the $120 per month I pay Direct Stream didn’t include this game. Unreal.
