  1. That reminds me of something someone said to me in April of 2020, when one school district in our area went virtual for the rest of the year: “ALL of the schools are done for the year, they just haven’t admitted it yet.”
  2. On the bright side, the game thread that almost wasn’t went a full ten pages.
  3. Bremer really sounds optimistic about their chances.
  4. He actually mentioned Beckham. I either: a) fell asleep during his reading of their bench b) blacked out during his reading of their bench c) have a vendetta against Beckham d) thought Johnny Carson law firms only had three names
  5. Bergman was struck out on a nasty slider. Inning should have been over.
  6. Also, Bremer noted the Twins have a bench of Leon, Cave and Hamilton tonight, so there is that.
  7. Seems to me Rocco is trying to shake it up a bit. I don’t totally mind it. But I’d like the offense to respond by putting up a fight.
  8. I was waiting for the inevitable “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” thread introduction. Twins have lost five of six games to Texas teams in the last week, and their bats are getting absolutely sawed apart.
  9. Wait, what?!? I was ready for the fireworks! I don’t understand this line “guess you are right” line of argument at all!
  10. Sorry, you missed the memo. The bar has been lowered. We are only playing for “get a hit” or “advance runner to third” in a game anymore, not even bothering to try for runs.
  11. Is this your way of saying it’s not a perfect game?
  12. This is one of the most insightful comments I have ever read on Twins Daily.
  13. At this point, I’d rather have a Peacock on this Ark than our daily pagan sacrifice.
  14. And now, a few days later… Rogers 4.56 Pagan 5.24 I’m hoping Pagan has pitched his last pitch for the Twins, personally.
  15. Fair, but it doesn’t help that Pagan keeps shooting holes in the lifeboats.
  16. All three games vs the Angels and the Royals, and then the first two vs Texas.
  17. Arihara is giving up a Pagan-like 2.3 HR/9 in his 11 career starts.
  18. Lineup: Arraez DH Correa SS Polanco 2B Miranda 1B Kepler RF Gordon CF Urshela 3B Cave LF Leon C
  19. I will concede that Judge has had a better year than Buxton. And that Buxton had had 338 at bats, and 379 plate appearances. Buxton has played in 91 of the Twins 118 games, a clip of 77%. He’s hit 28 homers, and posted 3.9 WAR over 379 plate appearances. If he keeps up those rates, he’ll play in 33 more games, and wind up with 515 plate appearances, 38HR, and 5.3WAR. All of those numbers would be career highs.
  20. Another way of looking at it: He’s on track for 500 PA, 5WAR and 35+ home runs.
  21. What might really make your head explode is if Kepler gets thrown out at home on Miranda’s single in the 8th, Pagan would have pitched the 9th down a run. Also, the home plate umpire was bad at calling balls and strikes. Buxton looks like he has regressed at the plate.
  22. Julien on base five times today, OBP up to .441 on the season.
