    I still remember something saying on Twins Daily around March last year that "I can't believe the Indians have Bieber in their rotation, he sucks!" This kid is on fire. Not sure if we can score any runs off him, and I fear Sano & Buxton don't stand a chance against him.
  2. Danchat
    He’s made it through waivers. I guess no team wanted to spend $2.38M (prorated) on a guy whose velo is down.

    Folks, we just swept the only division winner we'll play all year (regular season). Semantics aside, heck of a job by the pitchers holding them to 3 hits! Phenomenal! Let's go crush the Indians next!

    Hopefully we can see Hill go 7 in games like this in the future when he's stretched out. In the meanwhile, everyone in the bullpen outside of Littell and Smeltzer have looked really good.

    Having Arraez then Cruz in the lineup is a must. Luis is going to get on a lot and Cruz is going to mash, only makes sense to have Arraez on base when Cruz is up. Also, we're going to be here all night at the pace Ponce De Leon is working...

    I'm surprised Kepler's not in the lineup with a righty on the mound.

    I still think the Sox will make the playoffs, and will improve as the season goes. We're only at the 8% mark on the season, it's too early to call them down and out already.

    Looks like we'll finally get to see Romo & Rogers in the 8th & 9th.

    Once our pitchers get rolling, hopefully we'll see these 5 inning, 2 ER outings from Maeda and Hill go 6 innings.

    I thought that was a routine flyball... Donaldson's got some serious power in that bat!
  11. Danchat
    Man I love this lineup!!

    I'm definitely put in a waiver claim on this guy, but I have to imagine several other teams will too, including the Marlins, so I doubt the Twins could get him outside of a trade.
  14. Danchat
    All three games were mostly over by the 7th inning. They likely would have pitched on Saturday if Littell didn’t implode.

    Things I've learned from this weekend: Pitchers are having a hard time staying healthy (Verlander, Kluber, Kershaw, Odorizzi, two pitchers in today's game, a whole bunch of other pitchers on the IL) early on. Perhaps from ramping things up too quickly? The White Sox have a legitimately good lineup The White Sox defense is quite awful Cruz does not look like he's 40 and I think it's safe to say his regression due to age isn't happening this year Arraez is going to hit above .300 again this year, I'd seriously consider hitting him leadoff

    Dobnak got help from the ump too. If you go through the game thread, you'll notice a few comments on the ump's strike zone and how balls below the knees were getting called as strikes. Kuechel relies on those, so it helped him more, but I didn't intend to say that it was all one-sided.

    I don't think we should underestimate the White Sox hitters, they're pretty darn good. I am concerned that Littell and Smeltzer got hit up so much, but I think Berrios will be fine. We'll have to see how the new additions (Maeda/Bailey/Hill) do; if they get hit up, then I will be concerned. Eh, he got some help since the ump was giving him some low pitches, and he only ended up with 5.1 IP and 2 ER despite him rolling through the first 5 innings.
  18. Danchat
    Ouch! This Sox lineup is pretty darn good. Even the bottom of their lineup is kicking butt!
  19. Danchat
    That was pretty impressive of Smeltzer to strike out the #2 and #3 hitters after giving up 3 straight baserunners.
  20. Danchat
    Just saw that Martin Perez made his first start for the Red Sox. Gave up 5 runs (4 earned) over 5 innings, and the Sox trail the Orioles 7-2 in the 7th.
  21. Danchat
    One of the Twins Daily predictions was that Donaldson would have a slow start to the season, as that's a usual thing for him... hopefully it won't last too long. Reminds me of Dozier, who'd usually ramp up in June/July and catch fire.
  22. Danchat
    CRUZ CONTROL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  23. Danchat
    Nice, I didn't think Kuechel would get pulled this early. This is our big chance to get back in this game.
  24. Danchat
    Did you see how he pitched last year and in spring training? No thank you!
  25. Danchat
    Yikes, Littell is throwing batting practice out there...
