    Has anyone looked up the Twins offensive stats in extra innings this year? They've got to be ugly.
  2. bluechipper
    And when that leadoff batter is also hitting .180, doubling the fine to $1000 seems fair.
  3. bluechipper
    No thanks. I hated watching that guy pitch.
  4. bluechipper
    At least Cleveland got shutout by Jacob Junis, who had an ERA over 5 going into the game, so it could be worse, right?
  5. bluechipper
    He's got a 39% K rate this year. I don't see how that could possibly work. It's always funny to look at his stats in these daily reports, it seems like his outs are only K's, and his .439 BABIP sure supports that.
  6. bluechipper
    That horrible called strike 3 on Cruz to end the first set the tone for the game.

    Stephen Gonsalves was sitting in the low 90's in his first spring start compared to mid 80's at this time last year. What type of impact do you think he can have with that regained velocity?
  8. bluechipper
    I'm a big Luis Arraez fan, so I'll slot him in at 2B. Polanco can play 3B.
  9. bluechipper
    I'm surprised Royce Lewis only had 28 steals. Also surprised that he led the organization with that number. Generally speaking, I hope steals make a comeback in baseball. They're just fun to watch.

    Rodney Smith is out for the year. That is obviously terrible news, so they'll have to rely on the young guys. At least they have some intriguing options.
  11. bluechipper
    I predict they'll get at least 3 Big Ten wins to get bowl eligible.

    I think it's fairly important to remember that New Mexico State had already played a game the week before. Couple that with the huge number of freshmen, and I think it was a solid game for the Gophers. Also the Gophers play Illinois, so they won't need much luck to win a B10 game.
  13. bluechipper
    The freshman receiving group is really promising, plus Tyler Johnson. Rashod Bateman is going to be a big time player.
  14. bluechipper
    Tyler Austin with the "drive in more than you let in" philosophy today. He's had a rough time at first base so far since he's been here. I'm not very worried about 1B defense going forward, especially if you're going to hit 35-40 HRs, but it's just surprising seeing plays missed over there when I'm used to watching Mauer's great fielding.

    Stewart has a 3.36 career ERA in the minors.
  16. bluechipper
    They noted that he threw a live BP and that he was rusty during the game last night. I always find it funny when they have to report on these things for guys like Belisle. They make it seem like the Twins and the fans are anxiously waiting for the return of a 40 year old reliever with a 6 ERA.
  17. bluechipper
    Bobby Wilson and Logan Forsythe carried the team to a win... Yay?
  18. bluechipper
    The defense did not help Stewart out at all today. Adrianza's play was a huge mistake, and earlier that inning, Austin should have fielded that ball. Forsyth's high throw earlier in the game was a pretty easy play that should've been made too. Overall, Stewart was pretty similar to Fernando Romero, with their heavy sinkers, but the breaking pitches weren't really there.
  19. bluechipper
    Jose Ramirez has been a way better hitter in the majors too. I wonder what Cleveland knows about development that the Twins don't.
  20. bluechipper
    I hope that is the case. I'd rather see Gregorio Petit than Forsythe.
  21. bluechipper
    Lamonte Wade should get a shot sometime soon too.
  22. bluechipper
    Wow I did not realize Springer was having such an off year. That's even worse than Brantley getting in.
  23. bluechipper
    Congratulations to Jose Berrios! Rosario got snubbed, at least a little. He's got better numbers than Michael Brantley, but that's what happens when you're on a losing team.
  24. bluechipper
    I have yet to understand the Kennys Vargas love. He has a .677 OPS at AAA this year. He is simply not very good.
  25. bluechipper
    Did anyone find it weird that Dick asked if Colon is a Hall of Famer? It must just be him being fat and having a cool nickname that makes people forget about the PEDs. I understand forgiveness and still rooting for a guy that did that in the past, but that should be automatic disqualification from the HOF.
