  1. Certainly familiar enough with Fedde. Think this is the third time they've seen him.
  2. Go get 'em, Zebby. Help from Texas, Arizona and Philadelphia would be appreciated!
  3. Ace Pablo returning would be a welcome sight.
  4. When this team goes cold at the plate, it's like no one has played baseball before.
  5. Get back in the win column. Boston already lost. Get a game in the WC race.
  6. On second thought, thank goodness for Apple TV.
  7. Per the box score, bats are asleep. Guess I'm not missing much.
  8. Nope. I don't listen to them on the radio. Just meant a steady stream of updates.
  9. Need someone to do a steady play by play. Damn Apple TV!
  10. I'm on the SWR bandwagon. Dude battles out there and isn't afraid of the moment. Health allowing, he's going to be a good one.
  11. lol. Reynolds is so eager to be off the mound.
  12. I love SWR. Not sure what his underlying numbers say but the kid is just a gamer. There's definitely something there. Not afraid and he battles.
  13. Sure, players have to execute. But when players don't execute, regardless of the sport, it is the coach or manager that ultimately are held accountable. Some of the mistakes that we see - baserunning, botched plays in the field, lack of situational hitting, poor pitch selection - we're talking about basic stuff for competent major league players. I'd love to compare the Twins' pre-game workouts and walk-through's to what you get from a team like Cleveland or Kansas City because the Twins are more talented, top to bottom, than both of those teams. As for the microlevel view of Okert last night, I would eat my hat if there was ever an instance this season where fans criticized Rocco for NOT bringing Okert into a game with the exception of a scenario where it was a lefty-lefty matchup and Thielbar got the nod and proceeded to crap the bed. Sands has been the Twins' 3rd best reliever all season long. Unless Sands was unavailable last night, there's zero reason to go with Okert. Part of being a manager is putting players in position to succeed and pushing the right buttons.
  14. I wasn't literally called a 'hater'. It's semantics. Posters took issue with the criticisms of Rocco and communicated that in a variety of ways. And not trying to make myself out as a victim. I'm fine with folks having different opinions and I enjoy the back and forth on TD especially the game day threads. I was highlighting Sunday and last night as probably the two most glaring examples of how Rocco's in game managing have cost this team. The bullpen isn't all on Rocco. Ownership didn't do him any favors. But he's compounded the issue by making some really odd and costly decisions. It is what it is. Just get in the playoffs somehow. Hope that Correa and Buxton get healthy and see what happens. Unrelated to this - the lack of updates on Correa is becoming extremely concerning. Was supposedly cleared for baseball activities but nothing on a rehab stint down in SPL.
