  1. I can trust my lying eyes, or go with the stats that proved that Joey Gallo was a slightly above average player for the Twins...
  2. 6 blown games. If he keeps up his pace (which you are defending without actually showing anything) he'll have 10 or 11 blown games at his feet. This is Ron "Heartburn" Davis level results... and that is indisputable.
  3. ERA (actually, not cherry picked) 4 and a quarter. He basically gives up a run every other outing. 2 appearances equals 2 innings. Give up a run every other outing and it inches up to 4 and a half. That isn't elite. That isn't good. It is at very best average for ALL PITCHERS REGARDLESS. And for the #2 out of the pen, it is awful. Edit- he has blown 6 games, and looked horrific doing that. Not good...
  4. "Slumping" (if we are lucky, and he hasn't simply been figured out) relievers aren't a great return in trade... He gets crushed regularly. Teams might just know it ain't a slump...
  5. Absurd? Debatable Correct? Unquestionable.
  6. Give me roster of 25 Baders... and zero Jaxes (?plural of Jax?)!
  7. Shibe Field (later Connie Mack Stadium) measured 515 feet (yep!) to CF. Heard stories of how fast guys could've circled the bases twice on poorly played inside the park homers...
  8. 3 games. 3 runs. 3 mediocre (at very best) opposing pitchers. Zero signs of any Twin giving a fiddler"s fu... Why should we care???
  9. We deserve something for sitting through the worst month's ERA in team history... (anyone using any variation of "pitching pipeline" as anything other than mockery will be executed at sunrise!) Personally, I'd be happy with actual effort through the entire lineup! Probably be disappointed on that count 24 out of 25 games with this bunch...
  10. And Varland takes his award and pitches his next game like he earned it. Wait..
  11. When you are "tipping your cap" ( for their "stellar" pitching) to the oppo once a week, it's time to look in the mirror...
  12. One quibble... If you think this team is "as poor as possible" with the glove , how did you grade the Twins for last season's second half? It can get worse... much, much worse - one word "Julien"!
  13. Only because it was Sano's brain inside Sano's body...
  14. Be optimistic, old boy!!!! I am pretty sure they won't sign Joey, Whose Name We Shall Not Speak, again. So they can learn. Pretty sure, anyway...
  15. Same score as if the literally didn't show up! Forfeit line: MIL 111 111 111 900 MIN 000 000 000 000 Would've been just as well off (and statistically better) if the entire team got lost on the way to work (or whatever you call what they are doing to merit their paycheck)...
  16. Agree wholeheartedly with the first sentence. The cupboard is otherwise bare in terms of entertainment or effectiveness. (Sorry Joe Ryan... but you'll live and possibly thrive) The second? Not sure how it gets uglier (no pitching at all, no defense, no fundamentals anywhere, and just enough erratic scoring to pull out a game to prevent an embarrassing sweep), and surely don't want to see it if it does!
  17. It's obvious that no Twins decision makers think he has anything to offer the major league club. It is even more obvious why...
  18. Just run, baby! And before you run, STRETCH! And to cool down after? Stretch some more. 150 years of players knew this... and didn't pull hamstrings running to 1B!
  19. Sure!!!! Let's get Mike Piazza. Except for the bat - Piazza's bat is guaranteed better today than Wong's. Heck, he's rested, and might be better behind the plate! F@#k it, sign Piazza as next year's backup.
  20. C'mon!!!! Everyone knew coming into the season that any combo of Julien, Miranda and Kirilloff would be better than this dumpster signing! Everyone!!!! Never mind that none had any experience at 1B. Never mind that 2 of the 3 have yet to display any defensive awareness at their natural positions. Nor anything approaching "defensive versatility". Ignore that one is actually retired. Now we have this cheapo signing making every Twins produced product look bad by being "clutch" when most Twins reaction to the word "clutch" is a mumble about "I have an automatic..." Horrible signing, getting worse with every game winning hit and 1B scoop he performs!!
