  1. Jackson just doesn’t have the stuff to test the middle of the plate
  2. I think you’re fair. Back in my day (eye roll) a guy with his speed would have been coached/developed to maximize his impact by being a high contact, menace on the base paths type. His approach at the plate essentially negates his speed. He could be such a disruptive factor, in a good way, but as is he’s an easy out, No. 9 type player.
  3. I know I’ll come to regret it but I like Bowman.
  4. Just think of what kind of hitter Buxton *might* be if wasn’t trying to jerk every pitch down the left field line…….
  5. Oof. I hope we’re not staring at that for much longer.
  6. Bat does not look major league ready. Like half our roster right now.
  7. Remember this cascade of garbage started with the dubious decision to not let Ober pitch to even one batter in the 7th with a pitch count of 82.
  8. Does anyone remember Santana actually barreling a ball at any point this year?
  9. Let me know if you’ve heard this before. Largely effective Twins starter with modest pitch count gets pulled, things go south.
  10. Stating the obvious but Ober should have been allowed to start the inning. I’ve seen nothing from Okert that gets me excited.
  11. 2 errors already and could have been scored another
  12. As a fan I’d like to see our manager having something to say. Doesn’t need to get tossed, but it would be nice to see some engagement.
  13. Miranda runs like a catcher. An old catcher.
  14. I sure hope they don’t try (again) to turn Martin into a TTO guy. I appreciate a contact type hitter who’s good on the base paths.
  15. Have the feeling that IF the Twins could just string together a handful of quality ABs they’d beat this Tigers lineup pretty handily. But I thought the same thing last night.
  16. When do we stop dismissing this complete organizational failure to “early season cold starts”, “unfortunate injuries “ and “small sample sizes”? Asking for a friend…. Honestly this has been the script for at least a few years: seemingly meaningless spring training, ice cold hitting at the beginning of the year, terrible if not undisciplined plate appearances throughout, forced/fruitless platoon and lineup decisions. And of course the roster construction. As big a fan as I am, I’m almost hoping for a complete meltdown that forces the organizational enema that would eventually restore some entertainment to Target Field. That’s a tough pill for me to swallow, but I can’t in good conscience financially support this current mess.
  17. They should refund the tickets to those who sat through it. That wasn’t my idea of Major League Baseball.
