The league certainly made adjustments - but I think he's his own worst enemy right now. He doesn't trust his legs and is playing not go get hurt when he's in the batters box. -
The great thing about baseball is that you never know what game will be the start of something, good or bad. It'll be okay, Peter.
-
Thought Royce was ready to break out after that series in Milwaukee...oops.
-
Dodgers will just out and trade for 4-5 all star pitchers. Problem solved.
-
Does Fundy still carry the 'prospect' label - not sure why they don't remove him from the 40-man roster and bring up Anthony Misiewicz. I get the need for having a lefty in the pen but when that lefty is Fundy, what's the point?
-
A grand slam and solo homer away from tying this thing up...
-
IIRC, he's been away the entire series.
-
Yup. That's a good comparison.
-
Silver lining - Alcala's ERA continues to retreat. It's hovering at 6.5!
-
The Twins' line-up didn't necessarily figure anything out during the winning streak. They got hot and stayed that way for a while. But going back to the second game of the DH against Cleveland, the bats have been scuffling and I just think that's who this group is. Starting pitching will have to be dominant and more efficient, i.e., pitch deeper into games, if the Twins are going to contend for the wildcard.
-
Aranda is really annoying.
-
Peter, this lends itself to sooooooooooo many questions.
-
Built like Winnie the Pooh but moves like Tigger!
-
Hopefully Jorge has mercy on the Twins....
-
Royce is going through it right now. Mechanics are awful. Confidence is shot. Has an unending urge to be the hero. I'm not going to jump on the 'he sucks' bandwagon but I'm also unsure as to how he sees his way out of this slump because there's just so much going on with him. When Correa and Buxton were struggling, they needed a few tweaks to get right. With Royce, he needs a complete reset starting with how he swings the bat. Just not sure it is in the cards for him in 2025.
-
Hip, hip!
-
The Twins needed a 'spark' and Royce's face paint and enthusiasm probably gave the team a shot in the arm.
-
The inability to get Aranda out in this series is terribly frustrating...
-
Can't remember a pitcher struggling so much with weather conditions as much as Pablo. Beginning of the year, its too cold. Then undoubtedly, there's a handful of games where he sweats through 5 jerseys before the 3rd inning.
-
Rays running circles around the Twins.
-
Melted in the heat...
-
At least the 1-0 loss is off the table. We know how much that drives him crazy.
-
Hopefully its just the heat / humidity and he's trying to find the right mix of pitches. Regardless, he's been dreadful this inning.
-
Ball game. Need Pablo to start being an ace for more than 3 innings.
-
Yup. Twins bats already on the plane to Seattle.
