  1. Jackson. Part of the best bullpen in baseball.
  2. Why didn't Rocco let Funderburk or Sands go more than one inning?
  3. I just hope Pablo isn't headed to the IL...
  4. His last pitch clocked in at 91 mph...
  5. Yeah, with the way this season has gone...would anyone be surprised if there's bad news coming...
  6. In fairness, Solano wasn't signed to a MLB deal and could have a similar fate to Santana if / when he's called up.
  7. I thought Santana was going to be good for a 20 HRs, a discerning eye at the plate and solid defense at 1B. He didn't just fall off a cliff. He feel into the Grand Canyon. In hindsight, re-signing Solano at half the price and using the leftovers for someone like Lorenzen would've been the move. But, alas.
  8. Looks SWR is getting the nod on Friday night. Yes, I am blinded by the start against Detroit, but I'm bullish on SWR. I think he has the stuff to hold down that 5th spot and do well.
  9. Lee's injury gets lost in the shuffle a little bit because the focus has been on Correa and Lewis, but how different would this team look if Lee was healthy and with the Twins since Lewis went down...
  10. Obviously Duran is a huge add, but excited to see Staumont. Always did well against the Twins when he was with Kansas City and if he's healthy, he lines up well with Stewart and Jax as high-leverage RHP late in games.
  11. Am I alone in like Henriquez? Was surprised to see him get the call, but I always thought he has good stuff and with a few tweaks, could be a decent late inning option.
  12. Geez. Nothing says 'we screwed up this off-season' like a Randy Dobnak mention.
  13. I wouldn't move Sands out of the bullpen. IMHO, he's better suited there and can be a high-end contributor as a reliever. Injuries and/or lack of production could force the Twins' hand but hopefully SWR is the answer - and if he's not, then hopefully Varland can get right. This off-season has been a gigantic cluster but IMHO, the biggest indictment is that its not even May 1st and we're talking about Randy Dobnak or David Festa...
  14. Its a win. Have to start somewhere.
  15. Yup. Absolutely. Beat up on a bad team and get some positive momentum, but 4 in a row isn't easy - even if it is Chicago.
  16. Guessing that they need the bullpen arm short-term, and when they need the 5th starter, Henriquez is back to the minors and they call up SWR. But why Henriquez over Staumont? Confusing to say the least.
  17. And I wouldn't mess with Sands right now. He's found a groove in the 'pen and the Twins could stand to use all the help they can get from their relievers - despite the 'best bullpen in baseball' narrative that was floated before spring training. I wouldn't overthink it. SWR in, Varland down. If no other reason, show that players are held accountable.
  18. Pitchers need to be perfect for this team to win games right now. When Detroit scored 2 in the first and the Twins didn't capitalize with the bases loaded, you knew it was an L.
