    Oh, poo.
  2. Danchat
    You don't need anyone to make you forget Phil Dumatrait. Nobody remembers who he is.
  3. Danchat
    Thank goodness for Reed.
  4. Danchat
    You want Duke DFA'd 10 games in? That's funny. Remember how long they stuck with Belisle and Breslow last year? You're better off calling for Duke to hit the DL with an 'injury'.
  5. Danchat
    Kinley is the 25th man but he isn't getting used, so it's basically a 24 man roster.
  6. Danchat
    Now that Duke's loaded the bases, is it time for Reed?
  7. Danchat
    We've seen time and time again Molly will fall back on the veteran over a rookie. He clearly gained a lot of trust in Hildy last season. I wouldn't trust Kinley against the Astros lineup.
  8. Danchat
    You'd think with the way Hildenberger was pitching, they wouldn't have used him in a high leverage situation. That 8 run inning may not be enough...
  9. Danchat
    Wow, 4 walks for Dozier.
  10. Danchat
    Altuve is trying to bunt... heck, let him, I'd rather him do that than hit a double or a triple.
  11. Danchat
    Time for Sano to make up for leaving 6 guys on base... hopefully it won't be 8...
  12. Danchat
    I'm honestly shocked the Astros have scored 1 run in 11 combined innings from Lynn and Odorizzi. Oh, it must be the cold weather, right?
  13. Danchat
    That ball 4 did not have a pixel outside of the strikezone according to MLB gameday...
  14. Danchat
    Are all these walks (from both pitchers) because of the ump's small strike zone? Or are we going to blame the cold weather?
  15. Danchat
    I wasn't criticizing Mauer. It seems like 50% of his PAs with the bases loaded end in walks, which is great, compared to what the rest of our guys do with the bases loaded...
  16. Danchat
    Ah, the classic bases-loaded Mauer walk. Keuchel has thrown 8 balls to 1 strike in his last 9 pitches.
  17. Danchat
    I don't think Falvey/Levine anticipated that Santana would need surgery in February after his post-season MRI came back clean. Santana started pitching again in February and felt discomfort, leading to the surgery. I suppose it's possible the front office knew something about Ervin's finger I that everyone else didn't, but I doubt it.
  18. Danchat
    Look, I have always been an advocate for Trevor May, but calling him a better pitcher than Ervin Santana? We barely have enough tape on the guy in the majors as a starter to even think that he's better than Ervin. Now after having back problems and then missing a full year to Tommy John surgery, he'll suddenly become a better pitcher than Santana? I highly doubt that. And saying that Santana was going to be irrelevant for the 2018 Twins is simply inaccurate. He was going to be the Opening Day pitcher until the injury happened. The rotation would have been Santana-Odorizzi-Berrios-Lynn-Gibson... I bet if you asked Molitor who his ace starter was, he'd tell you it is Ervin. Even if he's the de facto ace, that makes him at the very least relevant. I was open to trading him, but the price had to be right. I expect regression for him, but apparently not as much as you do... I can just imagine it now, seeing Twins Daily blow up after the front office trades Santana for a B-level prospect and whiffing on Darvish.
  19. Danchat
    From what has been reported, May is currently ramping up and I think he is on track to return in June. I think they want him back as a starting pitcher (Falvey/Levine had a quote about that in Spring Training) but we'll see about that. Pineda is expected to possibly be able to throw in the bullpen in September. I don't think there will be time for him to throw enough innings to be a starter in 2018.
  20. Danchat
    No hat-eating for Aggies.
  21. Danchat
    Time for Rosario to atone for his new list of dumb mistakes!
  22. Danchat
    And just like that, Castro's batting average is now .158.
  23. Danchat
    Don't worry, guys, it could be worse:
  24. Danchat
    Isn't that the demographic? Seriously though, I have no desire to gamble and seeing those commercials somehow makes me want to do it even less.
  25. Danchat
    Is it that time of the year when the Twins Daily has been hit with spam bots? Either that, or the "Recent Blog" section of Twins Daily has had a very confused person posting about password recovery and Canon printers.
