    Jinx: Successful! Wait, I didn't want them to get a hit... crap.
  2. Danchat
    Oh, here comes Ben Revere as a pinch-hitter, who's according to Baseball Reference the worst batter in all of baseball (by oWAR).
  3. Danchat
    I would have stuck with Mejia for at least one more batter... so let's hope Duffey can blot out yesterday's events and pitch better.
  4. Danchat
    Joe, you're batting .330 in May, you don't need to bunt! Notch another hit or take a walk!
  5. Danchat
    I just noticed the Angels have 5 former Twins on their 25 man roster - Nolasco, Meyer, Revere, Robinson, and Guerra. None of them are doing that great, however.
  6. Danchat
    Was anyone else disappointed that Busenitz wasn't called up to face the team that traded him away? We could almost have a reunion between Santiago, Busenitz, Meyer, and Nolasco.

    I'm intrigued by Randy Rosario's call up. I'm surprised they called up a guy from AA who wasn't Melotakis. He's a legit prospect and he's put up some good numbers, but going from AA to the majors will be a tough transition. At least we're going with a guy who has the talent to make it happen. I can't imagine this will be a long-term thing for Rosario, but maybe he can help us out here in the short term.

    Wimmers? Really? Ugh, these bullpen moves have been so mediocre. Wimmers wasn't good in his first stint last year and he'll probably give up too many walks.
  9. Danchat
    Pressly is headed to AAA, Wheeler has been DFA'd. I imagine one of Busenitz/Hildenberger is coming up and the other... ummm... I dunno.
  10. Danchat
    He needs time in AAA to figure things out. The Twins have given him enough chances in the majors - it's time to try some other solutions.
  11. Danchat
    Maybe they'll have to take the Barry Bonds approach with him and just intentionally walk him when he comes up to bat.
  12. Danchat
    I saw that one live, it is still one of my favorite Twins moments.
  13. Danchat
    I can't imagine how his family would react to him blowing a 6 run lead in his first MLB appearance!
  14. Danchat
    It's good to see Wheeler have a nice first inning in the majors.
  15. Danchat
    I really can't stand how that play is scored as a hit when it was obviously an error. Hopefully it'll be retroactively changed - Berrios should have 2 unearned runs right now.
  16. Danchat
    Going off the stats and what's been said here, Hildenberger should be getting his first shot in the majors very soon, if not right now. He's ready, he's healthy, he's proven himself in AAA, so let's see what he can do in the majors. They could really use him. Also, will Melotakis be getting a promotion to AAA soon? I might just be looking at his stats, but I think he should be getting his feet wet in AAA soon.
  17. Danchat
    Yeah but Rucinski gave up 3 runs in the 9th... it would have made more sense to go with the fresh arm but for Molitor it was pick your poison. There just aren't any good options given to him, so it's no wonder he went with Pressly. (He just should have pulled him earlier)
  18. Danchat
    I would call up Busenitz and Hildenberger, while DFA'ing Belisle and Rucinski. Also send Pressly to AAA, maybe for Boshers. I don't think the front office will call up any relievers from AA, that's my hunch. I wouldn't make any trades unless we're giving up non-prospects. I'm not convinced the Twins are ready to push for a playoff run, so don't make any overreactions.
  19. Danchat
    LOL! So much for the rested arms... Rucinski just isn't good.
  20. Danchat
    Pressly needs a trip to AAA, Belisle needs to be DFA'd, Breslow needs rest. Call up Busenitz and Boshers. It's hard to believe this team has the record it does, but two tough losses do not equal a lost season.
  21. Danchat
    Wheeler is here now, maybe he could replace Gibson? I'd rather keep Duffey in the pen. It's really too bad May's elbow exploded. We could really use him.
  22. Danchat
    I know Vargas had a really rough outing today, but he's had some really nice games as of late! I don't like this move, but he'll be back soon. Apparently two pitchers will be called up - my guess is one of Rucinski/Tepesch and Boshers. However, since they've DFA'd Wilk, maybe they could add Busenitz to the team. He's dealing in AAA (2.29 ERA with 11 K/9 and 3.7 BB).
  23. Danchat
    Mauer doesn't get a chance to hit for the cycle as they intentionally walk him. Darn it, I want that triple!
  24. Danchat
    Wow, Kiermaier made a Buxton-esque catch to steal Polanco's extra base hit. I think those two CFs are the best defensive CFs in baseball right now.
  25. Danchat
    Mauer finally passes Baumgartner in HRs for the first time in the season.
