    At this rate, Dobnak should be able to go 7 innings, which I believe will be a first for a starter this year.
  2. Danchat
    Maybe that's why the hitters on both sides haven't done anything?
  3. Danchat
    I don't know, but it's not like there aren't quality pitch to contact starters who have had strong careers. Regression will come, but so far he's looked like he can hang in the big leagues. Now, how much longer will we wait for some good contact from this lineup?
  4. Danchat
    Dobnak's just really good at hanging 0s on the board. Still only 1 earned run on the year!

    Just saw that the Pirates put Nick Burdi on the 45 day DL after finding an elbow injury. He might need to get Tommy John surgery... again. Dude just can't stay healthy.

    Once electronic strike zones are thoroughly tested and improved from their current quality, I am in favor of them. I am fine with close calls going either way, but too often there are calls that have no business being made and end up impacting games.
  7. Danchat
    Here comes Nick Burdi... a pitcher our forum is very familiar with, especially the minor league portion.

    Why wouldn't you want to use your closer in a tie game? If we take the lead at this point, the game is over and there is no save opportunity.

    Yikes, this went from a quick game to a slog real fast. At least it's a game again!
  10. Danchat
    Ironically, the guy having the best night against Holland, Kepler, is the one whose supposed weakness (as a prospect) was facing lefties and might end up as a platoon hitter. Now we're back in this one!

    Alcala looked much better out there the second inning. He has what it takes to blow hitters away, just needs time to work on his command. I have faith he will be a key part of the bullpen at some point, likely not 2020 though.
  12. Danchat
    Thorpe doesn't look that good, his stuff isn't getting any swings and misses.

    Was there an opening on the 40 man roster? - Edit, never mind. Looked it up, it seems that the roster was at 38 to start the year with Romero and Pineda on the restricted list, and we've since added Whitefield and Thielbar to the 40 man.

    I heard yesterday during the game that they expect Odorizzi to start one of the games next weekend.
  15. Danchat
    It's pretty crazy that this was one of the harder stretches on the Twins' schedule... and they went 7-2! Now we get the likes of the Pirates and Royals.
  16. Danchat
    Our pitchers gave up 4 total runs over this 4 game series, and 4 over the past 5 games. That's incredible! The bullpen has been simply phenomenal so far.
  17. Danchat
    That's 3 runs allowed in the last 4 games... wow!
  18. Danchat
    ...and then Maeda strikes out the side!
  19. Danchat
    So Alcala is coming from the taxi squad, and how exactly does that work? I assume the 3 players (Alcala, Telis, Thielbar) were traveling with the team and not working out with the 60 man pool that aren't on the 30 man roster? And do they choose a new player to join the taxi squad since Alcala has been elevated?
  20. Danchat
    Big win! It was important to get to Clevinger after what Beiber did yesterday. And our pitching has given up 3 runs the past 3 games... good show!
  21. Danchat
    And of course that gets scored as a double, because no play is an error anymore. That counts as an earned run for Clippard.
  22. Danchat
    Yikes, Polanco needed to call Arraez off there. That shouldn't have been a difficult play.
  23. Danchat
    Nice, quick inning there! Would like to see one of our starters go 6 innings soon.
  24. Danchat
    I believe that's the first time a Indian starter has given up more than 2 runs so far this year! I like our chances to even the series up today if we can chase Clevinger early.
  25. Danchat
    Man, having a true ace pitching lights out is a scary thing to go up against. The Twins' pitching staff had a good outing, but it just didn't matter.
