  1. The Pohlads were willing to fire Gardy with a year left on his deal, but yes, Molitor is going to get all of 2018 and most likely all of 2019 to keep his job.
  2. I know Escobar doesn't have the range to play SS, but he's hitting .308 with .920 OPS, so we need his bat in the lineup every day until he isn't hitting that well and our DH/OFs start picking up the slack. Plus while Polanco has much better range, Escobar at least has the arm to consistently make the throws unlike Jorge.
  3. Watching Duffey pitch makes me want to see the Twins DFA him and find the next Magill, Wilk, Hale, or Melville with his roster spot.
  4. I don't know what the heck happened to Rogers, but he lost the ability to get major league players got.
  5. Berrios is already getting pulled? That can't be a good sign. Now it's time to waive the white flag - aka bring out the bullpen.
  6. Responding to a question asked much earlier here, Moya was acquired last year in a trade for JR Murphy, so he's a Falvey guy. Busenitz was acquired by Rob Antony, but he's put up good numbers at AAA and looked good in a small stint in the majors last year, so it makes sense that the FO likes him. Who are some of the prospects you'd like to see come up?
  7. You going to run onto the field and distract the Reds or something? Maybe buy some time for a bullpen move?
  8. Yeah, he's a bit younger than Hale, but he's a non-prospect. They have tried some of the prospects... Alan Busenitz couldn't do much, Gabriel Moya looked overwhelmed... John Curtiss will be up sooner than later, too.
  9. The Twins are calling up Matt Magill, so he'll get Hale's 25 man and 40 man roster spot. I never thought we'd reach this level of desperation so early in the season...
  10. Reds Sal Romano ® 1. Jesse Winker (L) RF 2. Jose Peraza ® SS 3. Joey Votto (L) 1B 4. Scooter Gennett (L) 2B 5. Eugenio Suarez ® 3B 6. Scott Schebler (L) DH 7. Adam Duvall ® LF 8.

Robbie Grossman (S) RF 7. Logan Morrison (L) 1B 8. Mitch Garver ® C 9. Ehire Adrianza (S) SS
  11. I kinda feel for Hale, his pitching wasn't awful yesterday, and Molitor tried to get him to throw the 9th when he was clearly gassed. I'd much rather see Hughes DFA'd or Rogers/Hildenberger optioned to AAA.
  12. At this point, we're searching for answers for every single pitcher not named Gibson, Berrios, Reed, and Pressly.
  13. Didn't expect Eddie to hit a 0-2 home run off a pretty good closer, but I'll take it.
  14. I'm trying to think of a witty comment, but I got nothing. This feels like the losing streak to start the 2016 season. We're reaching the point of no return here.
  15. This game is so awful MLB gameday isn't working anymore. Maybe it's a sign I should do something else with my time.
  16. Look, I'm not a Paul Molitor fan, but what can you do as a manager when virtually every single one of your relievers have morphed into pumpkins? If the Twins keep playing like this, the Indians are going to win the Central with about a 35 game lead.
  17. And that's why DFA'ing Kinley and getting somebody else was a good idea. Nice job by Hale.
  18. I can't even blame Pressly for that triple. Hamilton golfed that pitch and was lucky it went fair.
  19. Duffey was mediocre last year, but my goodness, he's making Hughes look good now.
  20. The Reds are looking the part of a 100+ loss team.
  21. Hughes tried the mop-up role last year too and was just as bad. I'd just DFA him and get it over with. Duffey or somebody else can pitch those innings.
  22. I am not surprised at all that Hughes looks awful. He's been a shell of himself the past two seasons, why would he suddenly be good this year? It's nearly time to eat the contract and move on.
  23. THIS is the Morrison I thought we signed.
