  1. Maybe this is the chance for Duffey to throw 4 innings and get himself stretched out to start. Though Santiago will take Turley's spot, so maybe Duffey could take Gibson's spot?
  2. If Berrios would have enough innings pitched, then he should be a candidate for the All-Star team.
  3. Ugh... Castro should have caught that and we'd still have a 0-0 game. IMO that should be an unearned run for Berrios.
  4. Are we sure that isn't just a temporary move to the bullpen for Hu? I'm pretty sure he'd be starting for us right now if he was still around, though I'll admit I don't know a lot about him.
  5. What I'm afraid of is having the Twins trading away a guy like Chih-Wei Hu for Kevin Jepsen. Two years later, the Twins are looking like complete idiots for trading away a solid starting prospect who could be in the rotation right now for a reliever who did help the 2015 playoff run but then immediately capsized in 2016. The time will come to become buyers and make a WS run. But that time is not now and likely not in 2017.
  6. That third strike call on Escobar was one of the worst I've ever seen. The ump waited a full three seconds and then decided to call him out even though the pitch wasn't near the strike zone. Also, Rosario was safe on first. It's too bad with challenges requiring 'decisive' evidence, only dumb calls can be overturned, and close ones will rarely be flipped. That was a close play but Rosario's hand clearly hit the base before Miller's foot.
  7. Wow, I'm surprised Gibson made it through that inning. The bats have to come through for him...
  8. Turley put up some nice stats in AAA, but that was a very small sample size plus he's become a journeyman for a reason. We've had plenty of rookies have rough patches, but I don't really see Turley as a traditional "rookie". He's more of a AAA lifer who had a good two months in AAA.
  9. Glad to hear Busenitz is coming up. It's about darn time.
  10. Adrianza has been a big upgrade on DanSan so far. I'm impressed with him so far.
  11. This is why we had a 14 page discussion about claiming Adam Wilk... most of us knew he'd pitch like this, but I suppose the other options aren't much better. Though to be honest, I'd rather have Tommy Milone at this point.
  12. If I've got my numbers right, the Twins gave given up a run in the first inning in the last six of seven games.
  13. He is the 26th man - Heston is in AAA. This is a 40 man move to get Wilk on the 40 man roster.
  14. Nice article, Seth. I hope to see Busenitz very soon as a Twin.
  15. Wow, Escobar's almost at .300! He's been going nuts this series!
  16. I've heard a lot of people saying that Lewis doesn't have the arm for SS and he'll end up in CF. It's likely Lewis will not affect Gordon (who might be a 2B) whatsoever.
  17. This has concluded the Matt Belisle warning.
  18. Isn't this like the 5th straight game where the other team has scored in the first inning?
  19. This game is going to do wonders for our Pythagorean W-L (run differential). (before the game it was 24-32)
  20. Rosario seems like a much better batter at home, unlike the rest of the team - here's the stats: At Home: .309/.352/.899 (not including that HR) Away: .187/.204/.435 It's a bit of a SSS, but holy home/away splits Batman!
  21. Something was up that we probably don't know about. Most likely something to do with his signability.
  22. Wow, I still can't believe Baumann got drafted so high. I would love to have Mahtomedi (my high school) have a guy in the MLB. I will be rooting for him all the way.
