    The dude's thrown 23 innings in the majors... yeah, he was throwing BP out there in the 4th, but I think you gotta give the kid more chances. We've talked about how we need to calm down about Perez having a bad start, so maybe we should do the same with Littell.

    Dick is literally talking about how lefties are hitting Rogers better (in a 2018-19 sample size)... he's a great reliever and can go out there in high leverage situations, just don't overuse him. He's going to give up a few runs every once in a while like he did yesterday.
  3. Danchat
    Are we sure Rogers is ready for a save situation after facing 8 batters yesterday?
  4. Danchat
    Here comes that regression from the bullpen we've (or at least I) been waiting for!
  5. Danchat
    Yikes... I don't like our bullpens chances versus theirs. I don't think we win this one.

    Dick had me on that Sano non-HR. I was doing the dishes and I hear Dick yelling... for a flyball on the warning track. Stop it with the fake-outs!
  7. Danchat
    Alright, Smeltzer's impressed me by being able to keep that guy at 3rd base.
  8. Danchat
    IMO he’s been a very good defensive catcher, which is a nice thing to have.

    Adams was taken off the 40 man, we had an extra spot.

    I don't see the Indians making an against-the-odds rally to win the division. Still, that doesn't mean the Twins are going to have a great rest of the season. They could easily lose steam and make a quick exit from the playoffs.

    I was more fascinated by Astudillo (3% chance of K) VS Hader (53.3% chance of K). Of course, he popped out, but I wonder how many PAs it would take for Hader to strike him out.
  12. Danchat
    Eh, that stinks, but they looked way better against Hader than they did last year. Those ABs last season vs Hader were the lamest ABs I've ever seen from major league hitters. If we face Hader again, I'd PH for Sano. He wasn't close to touching any of those pitches. He's got no hope with that uppercut swing. I'm impressed the rest of the squad made that much contact against him, however.

    This is where I get nervous about this roster... not sure I trust Harper with a one run lead. Hopefully we'll get some more support from the bats as well.
  14. Danchat
    Wow! This lineup is amazing!!
  15. Danchat
    It's good to see Duran is staying healthy and throwing filth.
  16. Danchat
    Oh no, we'll probably get 6 innings with 2 to 3 solo HRs... we can overcome that!
  17. Danchat
    Wow... 20 games over .500. Just ridiculous at this point! I don't anythign left to say about this team right now. I'm just excited! A bit of news to anyone going to a Twins game on a weekend where it's going to be busy... make sure to show up to the game early, the lines just to get in to Target Field are 30-50 minutes long. Many people didn't get in until the 2nd-3rd inning because so many were trying to get in through very slow security checks. I wonder if Cruz is going to be activated very soon? It's sounded like he's nearly ready.
  18. Danchat
    It was a legitimate 30-50 minute wait to get into target field. They don’t seem prepared for a packed game.
  19. Danchat
    I’ll be at the game today, seats on the 3rd base line. First game of the year for us. My dad’s got a Astudillo shirt on that I got him, and I’m happy to see Tortuga is in the lineup.
  20. Danchat
    I think Arraez goes to AAA because he should be getting everyday ABs. Adrianza has looked better as of late and can stay as the utility infielder for now.
  21. Danchat
    Here's a thought... should we start having Alcala throw as a reliever to see if he might be able to crack the majors by the end of the year? Reading his profiles and seeing his performances, methinks he's going to end up as a reliever anyways, so why not try that out now? Lamonte Wade may not be getting many hits this year, but boy, he just finds ways to get on base. I wonder when we'll get to see him as a Twin (not that we need to see him soon, just wondering when).
  22. Danchat
    I'd take Littell being on the roster as a long reliever, soaking up some innings so that less relievers have to pitch. I'll take an ERA in the fours in that role.
  23. Danchat
    Well, it's nice to see Littell get some quick mop-up outs. We could use a decent long reliever...
  24. Danchat
    This team is simply bonkers. They can't stop scoring runs! They're down 4-0 in the 2nd inning, and by the time the 3rd inning finishes, they have a lead! This team is spoiling us.
  25. Danchat
    Well, to be more specific, Polanco was brought up for a cup of coffee when they needed a body, and they had already used an option on Polanco to start him at Fort Myers, so calling him up for a few games in 2014 did not use an option. A lot of folks seem to misunderstand that scenario.
