  1. Sorry Lewis but Lee is the 3rd baseman of the future.Unless Lee goes on the IL why would you move him.He is making every play with good throws to 1st,something both Lewis and Miranda seem to fight. As has been said many times before Buxton is far more dangerous on the bases versus trying to hit homeruns every at bat. Hopefully today was just a off day with the bats.I don't think they can win in San Francisco with only 5-6 hits in the game.
  2. I want to know who spoke to Buxton about contact hitting being better than swinging for the fences every at bat.He has become more dangerous on the bases and looks like he is having more fun. The other thing is Lee looks like the team's 3rd baseman,so Lewis if ever healthy may need to move to DH and some LF.If you watch Lee he looks at home at 3rd and makes really good throws to first,something Lewis has trouble with.
  3. It is time for everyone to realize Lopez is not a #1.He also needs to start working on pitching.He has spent time on Wheel of Fortune and Homerun vests and Hats as well as Pablo Day.Game after game he has a blow up inning as happened again tonight. Miranda kept the Twins in the game tonight with hit after hit.Lee followed with good at bats.Poor manager choices kept putting the game out of reach.
  4. Lewis needs to change his work out routine.He looks like he quit jacked and has probably shortened muscles in his body.Now he is lost until after the ASG and maybe longer.If that is the case it's time to get Lee up.
  5. This FO gets an F when it comes to trading for pitchers.More often then not the pitcher they get ends up on the IL with shoulder or arm issues.We now also have Topa who is on the IL all season with a bad knee.
  6. Garver was the catcher not the DH.This is why Rocco should think twice about having Jeffers DH.As for miscus in the infield,this is what happens when you change 3 of 4 infield players.One other thing,3rd base is becoming a problem because of throws to first.Both Miranda and Lewis seem to struggle to make good throws and Santana has to work to make plays more often then not.
  7. Hopefully Margot apologized to Festa about his lazy play in right.Yes the score was lopsided at the the time,but that was a can of corn.It cost Festa ERA and pitches.As a team mate you have to help a young pitcher when you can.
  8. Topa is on 60 day IL and wouldn't count on him pitching until August if at all this year.
  9. He has value because he is the only player to play every game this year.When availability is important he there and ready to play.
  10. Baseball is in the HR is the end all be all era.Well guess what you don't get to hit multiple run HR without runners on base and Arraez gives you that.With C4 this year,he is finally playing to his potential and contract.
  11. It's like real estate,it's all about location and Paddock can't find it.There are pitchers throwing all across the league in the low 90s.They did say last night that Varland seemed to be taking a little more time between pitches.That is and has been his problem,rushing pitches.
  12. SWR is showing a lot of confidence on the mound and seems to have a plan.When you watch Varland he looks like the ball is too hot to hold on to.He is throwing not pitching,needs slow down and relax.
  13. It is time to be concerned about Lopez,he looks like he is fighting every pitch thrown.He has not looked good for weeks,yes he had a good outing against the Astros.But you can't say he looked good in this or that outing.And the BP made this game way closer than it should of been.They now have the A's for 4 that will not be easy.
  14. Signing Santana and playing him over Kirilloff day after day has effected his play.In the off season he thought 1st base was his to play.The situation with Julien was once Polanco was traded 2nd base was his and working on his defense hurt his offense.
  15. There's getting hit by the pitch and then there's getting hit by the pitch.When a hitter is hit in the butt or the back it is not the same as arm or leg.So in my mind if a pitcher hits a hitter on the back or the butt 3 times he is gone.
  16. The game is called baseball,the object is to score more runs than the opponent.A sac fly helps to do that.The game is going in the wrong direction with the homerun becoming the end all be all.Last night the offense didn't come alive,they made a weak starter look like a Cy Young talent.He averaged less than 10 pitches per inning through 5 innings.Hopefully Varland has learned something in St Paul and gives the team a chance to win tonight.
  17. Don't get to excited,3 runs in the first a wild pitcher to get the 4th run.Then needing a 10 inning and another wild pitcher to pull this one out.
  18. Rocco is the puppet of the FO,the only thing not seen is the strings.You have to feel for SWR,he has pitched his butt off for weeks.This team is laughable and has zero chance of the playoffs.
  19. If Lewis can stay healthy and get 400 AB's he should hit 80-100 homeruns.This is the team we have,its all about the homerun.They will only play homerun,they can't situational hit that is why they lose.
  20. All I can say it is laughable to think this team will be a playoff team.
  21. His so called 5 tool talent has been wasted on him believing he is a power hitter.And now everyone is moving on to the Lewis train.You listen to Cory P and that is all he talks about is Lewis hitting it out of the park.
  22. Same old Twins,they see the pinstripes and are a bunch of turtles pulling their heads back inside their shells.Then of course Correa the so called team leader strikes out 4 times.If people think ha we have the Pirates next,good luck.It is time to find something else to root for.
  23. The last time I looked Santana has played 1B for years.I would think he knows if and when he needs to toss the ball to the pitcher.The team has many other issues to be working on.
  24. Julien has to go down to St Paul because he was caught between pitches.You can't stand in the box watching pitches in the zone.He should have watched Miranda's at bat the other night when he saw a dozen pitches.He needs to swing the bat at close pitches,not stand there watching strike three.As far as the Lewis situation he can play LF if needed,so Miranda is at third.
  25. Some players need to play more than one or two games a week to show their ability. You can see he is happy to play any where he is asked to play. Once Lewis is back he should get a break,so he doesn't wear down.
