  1. Right now the Twins have the desired formula for victory, a 6 inning game. Then Louie, Jax and Duran to hold the lead. They just need the lead after 6....... If they're going to compete for a playoff spot they need to keep the formula. But........if they get a young possible front line starter I'd say they have to do the trade. Nothing less.
  2. Yesterday's game could not have been scripted any better by Rocco. Other than Lewis missing a couple of ground balls it was near perfect, including the weather. But yesterday is gone and it would be hopeful if the Twins were 50/50 going into the break. Hopefully SIM can keep spinning swings and misses and soft hit balls into another victory. I keep forgetting that SIM's velocity is considered sub-par for todays game but is faster than Viola or Morris in their heyday. I hope we win today.
  3. Buxton is a game changer. Rocco likes Wallner. He’s not going anywhere.
  4. Not gonna happen. When Waller hits one they leave in a hurry.
  5. Shut out no longer in play but not the fault of Adam’s.
  6. Lewis is reluctant to field the grounders.
  7. FYI: city connect jerseys are half off in the stadium twins store today.
  8. Lewis is way less than 100% physically. Definitely has a hitch in his giddy up.
  9. Buxton is a game changer. Most exciting play in baseball is a Buxton triple.
  10. I always enjoy 3 in the booth better than 2. I think Provus announcing with 2 analysts is perfect. With 2 analysts Provus can tone down the home enthusiasm and just call the game. A former pitcher and former hitter is the sweet spot for me. Audra is fine but I miss Marney.
  11. The hardest position to fill is a front line starter. Joe Ryan is that. I probably over value Twins players but the return suggested for Ryan does not seem like enough. I think the player value right now is the return the Twins would get next year at this time with one less year of control. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm not blown away with the player value return at this time.
  12. not according to ESPN on Tuesday when I ordered the tickets.
  13. Enjoy the game. Those seats are about where I am sitting Saturday. I bought tickets for the Saturday game as the probable pitchers were Ryan and Skenes.......
  14. The relief pitchers used yesterday will be available today because of the off day Monday. But, Rocco will be very hesitant to use them tomorrow. Two days in a row is his ideal max. I just hope Festa can keep his pitch count low enough so we can bitch when Rocco removes him after 5 innings again. I liked last nights broadcast teamwork. 4 in the booth was a bit too many so 3 will be perfect. I came away even more impressed with Pablo as a pitcher, competitor and person. SO....english is his 3rd best spoken language. Oh to be that intelligent, young and have a 60 million dollar contract in your back pocket.
  15. To bad Bride is not on the roster anymore. Wentz looking hittable.
  16. I'll fill you in.......Twins hitters are hitting the ball very well this inning.
  17. I guess 2 runs is not the limit for tonight.
  18. Jax powers his way out of the jam. So far Rocco's strategy is working. Going into the 9th with a rested Duran ready to rock and roll with a lead is all we can ask for. But 5 relievers is not sustainable over the course of the season.
  19. Devers seems to have the heavy wallet syndrome.
  20. Starting to look like 2 runs is the Twins limit tonight.
