  1. Gaining as much ground in the division in the next 2 weeks will be huge for when their schedule gets more difficult. They need every one of these wins right now. I'm actually been rooting for the Yankees to beat Chicago ? and that goes against every fiber of my being.
  2. I live in Atchison, about an hour north on the Kansas side.
  3. Agreed about Sano, no surprise the team is playing so well in his absence. Also agree about Jorge Lopez, he would be a great back end reliever. Arraez has made some pretty sweet picks at first base on semi-errant throws from the left side of the infield but people don't seem to realize that.
  4. You would be surprised how many Twins fan live in the KC area, me included. The section I sat in last night behind the visitors dugout was full of Twins fans.
  5. My wife is a childhood friend of Jorge Lopez and we've followed his career for several years, I would be thrilled to see him in a Twins jersey.
  6. Having a lefty in the rotation was nice.... for the 2 games it lasted. I have a feeling the leash on guys like Archer and Bundy will shorten so Smeltzer may be back in the rotation pretty quickly if he keeps pitching well in St. Paul.
  7. That is a big "If" and this is his second TJ surgery so I wouldn't call the trade a win in any scenario, unless the third player they received Brayan Medina turns into the next Johan Santana. Pagan is a shaky reliever at best and losing Paddack makes this a big L.
  8. The question is who do they trade and for what? They've got so many pieces contributing right now and the return has to be better than what they got from the Rogers deal.
  9. Great post. Thanks for sharing. I agree the Rogers trade looks like a L and could be one of the worst trades the Twins have made in recent memory.
  10. Pagan will get lit up like a Christmas tree. Honestly I think they have 3 or 4 relievers that will get crushed against better hitting teams.
  11. They're kind of in a bad spot because Duran has the stuff to be a closer, but more often than not they need him to put out fires before the 9th. But I think Pagan as a closer is flirting with danger when they play better teams in a couple weeks.
  12. It seemed like every possible bounce went against the Twins last season and this year they're getting those bounces. Hopefully that continues.
  13. The next 15 games will be the challenge, each one of these games should be winnable. If they can go 10-5 or 11-4 that will be a huge boost going into early June. If they can distance themselves a little bit going into the series against the AL east that will be another big boost. And hopefully the White Sox will keep losing ?
  14. Not the case, I just think these types of satire aren't that funny. Thanks for playing, try again.
  15. The title of this article is misleading, it should be "Twins Fans Absolutely Furious at Poor Management Decisions". No one is angry about being in first place.
  16. Hopefully on days when they're either scoring a lot of runs early or getting shellacked early they can get him out of the game and give him additional rest. 125-140 sounds reasonable.
  17. As long as they don't have to give up too much, that wouldn't be a bad trade to make.
  18. My fear is they'll trade some of their core players for a pitcher and that pitcher will bomb and set the team back for several years.
  19. Agreed. Arraez is a spark plug at the top of the order and gets on base, for the Twins not to put him in the lineup is crazy.
  20. And that's what they mentioned on the broadcast today, letting him learn another position(s) at the AAA level.
  21. Understand, unless they give Larnach time at first in his rehab stint.
