Best bullpen in baseball, lol. -
This could get ugly.
-
Schneider and Jensen are cartoon characters.
-
Gonna need 10-12 runs today.
-
Nicely done...
-
Would be nice to see SWR settle down here...
-
Correa's swing is text book. Joy to watch this man.
-
I'm just going to say it. Best catcher in baseball?
-
Sometimes for a young pitcher, getting a big lead, you tend to get a little complacent. SWR was locked in against Seattle. Not as much today.
-
Weird stuff happens when Jax is on the mound...
-
Don't nibble Jax...go at them.
-
RBI single for Max...
-
Max is so incredibly clutch.
-
I really wish there was a way to keep Max...
-
Yup. He got better as the season went on last year and he's doing the same in 2024.
-
Guess this is a game for Staumont to get the rust off...
-
I was done with this crew last night when the 1B ump said Haniger didn't go around - should've been inning over - almost resulted in disaster.
-
Jeffers is absolutely an all-star - at least he better be.
-
This is wild stuff.
-
Not used to giving up multiple runs in a start, let alone 4 in the first inning.
-
Are we all seeing the same things, lol?
-
Margot!!!!
-
Pablo's peripherals have been lights out. He's due to have one of those games where he looks like a CY Young winner.
-
I'll add this - the front office at least has a 'plan' when it comes to pitchers - find controllable arms, make the proper adjustments when needed and plug them into the rotation - Ordorizzi, Maeda, Lopez, Gray, Paddack - in theory, its worked - but eventually the cupboard's bare and it becomes harder to make those trades. Eventually, they need to hit it big with the draft and/or international signings.
-
On the one hand, the front office identified Ryan and SWR and to a lesser extent Lopez and Paddack - both of whom were already established... They can take credit for Ober and Jax... So it isn't all bad. But, on the flip side - trading for Mahle and Lopez have bit this team in the ass and will wind up setting the Twins back by more than a few years when the dust completely settles. You can certainly argue that if they drafted and/or developed young pitcher better than they have, they don't need to be so aggressive in trading for an injury-riddled pitcher and a reliever who had a limited track record of success. Won't kill them for the Gil trade - he needs a ton of work and is extremely wild and Wells has some injury issues to work through.
