    The Twins screw themselves without any help from the rain.
  2. T.O.
    The game is Ober but they didn't say over. According to weather map the rain will prob be past in an hour or so. May continue game.
  3. T.O.
    Provis was asking for clement weather. We got Clemens weather.
  4. T.O.
    The Twins are Hamstrung, Fracturing any chance they have of making the playoffs. Their future looks Oblique.
  5. T.O.
    Next, the munchkins. And your little dog too.

    When the manager has no energy, no special qualities, is blasé', the players tend to be the same.

    Same here. Fan since 1961. I wish I could have been at the Met. Instead I was listening on radio in Des Moines. It's not a kids game anymore.
  8. T.O.
    Bad taste.
  9. T.O.
    I would have him sit out for a week, have him kept his mouth, and think about not being a "leader", being a team player instead.
  10. T.O.
    Buck doesn't strike out. Good job!
  11. T.O.
    Correa didn't ground out, twice in a row. He's improving. Going earn that salary yet.
  12. T.O.
    At least he didn't ground into DP. It's a lot better that way.
  13. T.O.
    Agree. I don't understand the effort to assign "Blame". Forget the division of blame. Forget that the whole organization stinks. Just look at the manager. Look at the team. The team acts disconnected, uninterested, barely trying, not playing as a team. No passion. Listen to Baldelli talk to the press. Watch him in the dugout. He sounds/acts so disconnected and uninterested. No passion. Add in the things in the quote above. He is not helping. He's part of the problem. They need someone else. It may not get better but a new approach, a new attitude, might change things. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

    Don't say "Fall" guy to Twins fans. It's out least favorite time of year lately.
  15. T.O.
    ...as potential interim replacements include Jayce Tingler, who has considerable managerial experience, as well as Hank Conger and Tommy Watkins, who lack that experience but are very well liked. I'm not sure another "well liked" manager would be the best idea. ...series against the lowly White Sox and Angels, who were the two worst teams in the American League last year... When you play like you don't care I don't think that will matter.
  16. T.O.
    Hope so because I don't think Correa is going to be.
  17. T.O.
    Not worth what is is paid. Two teams were going to sign him then backed out after physical. I guess they were smarter than the Twins. With this latest injury my long shot dream of him agreeing to a trade are dashed. Who would want him, especially at that price.

    Since they are attempting to put a team together from random pieces does that make him The Bride Of Frankenstein ?

    "Big-league managers have relatively little control over events that occur in games." Managers can't will events on the field but they set the tone. It's clear that Baldelli does not have the respect of his players even though they apparently like his laid back style, or rather is detachment from the team. He should not be there. We don't know the degree to which the FO pulls his strings but either way the combination of the two clearly has not known how to manage players, especially new players from the minors. This is one of those area with strong opinions both ways. Managers have little impact or managers set the tone and are ultimately responsible for what happens of the field. I'm in the later camp. In our current situation the entire organization has been a miserable failure. There is talent there but the organization doesn't know how to nurture it. Everyone, manager to FO, needs to go. With all the injuries right now there is greatly reduced chance of getting it together and winning. Why delay until the end of the season? Unfortunately Falvey would never fire the manager as that would be an admission of his failure. That would leave it to the owners. Do they even care at this point? Does the drop off in attendance mean anything to them? Is there any chance of selling the team at this point?

    Hamate. Since it has "Ham" in it probably.
  22. T.O.
    Twins certainly are hamstrung.
  23. T.O.
    I don't even like to see a Baldelli closeup in the dugout but made myself listen to his post game interview. My brain glazed over. It's like he's not even there. It's like he doesn't have a strong connection to what is happening with the team.
  24. T.O.
    This is like a bad car accident. I decided to watch something else but then I just can't not look.
  25. T.O.
    Even without him the Twins still Blewett big time.
