  1. Either Cory missed it or I didn't hear it. Kreidler is now in CF and Clemens has moved to 1B along with the aforementioned Outman in LF
  2. So that story by Cory Provus is setting up for the next time he is gone, we will find out that Cory has been put on the IL.
  3. I think he has established himself enough that he can be a slower version of Willi Castro that as long as the bat plays, he needs a spot on the field and in the lineup. As a reminder, there was much discussion on this website about how terrible Willi Castro's defense was when he was moved all around the field.
  4. Clemens is doing his best Michael Cuddyer impression, but it is clear that he is not meant to be a CF. If he ends up having any trade value, no one is going to mistake him for a CF.
  5. I liked the aggressive send. Two outs and the third baseman moving away from the plate just concentrating on making a tough play.
  6. I believe that decision is typically up to the runner to make the decision. If you looked at the replay just now, Bell saunters over to third. Now I wouldn't expect Bell to score from 2nd, but not hustling over there to see if there is a bad throw is just terrible base running.
  7. I've noticed that the Twins still don't do a very good job of moving from 1st to 3rd like our opponents do. I don't believe it all to be that we are just slow. I think it comes down to hit recognition. Too many of our hitters are not recognizing a hit dropping off of the bat and hold up to make sure the hit comes through and they lose that opportunity to take the extra base. Just now, had Clemens moved from 1st to 3rd on the Bell hit, he could have scored on that wild pitch.
  8. I'm not sure how it is in Minnesota. Out here, the summer snow season (blooming cottonwoods) have just started, increasing all the allergies for everyone.
  9. This makes the decision to DFA SWR even more mind boggling and incredibly short-sighted. Yes, he may have been the worst starting pitcher in baseball prior to being demoted to the bullpen. You still need arms to get through the season.
  10. My money would have been on a Wallner burner account, but I am terrible at gambling.
  11. Hear him out. Maybe he wants to see the biggest pillow fights of the year next week when the Royals and Tigers come up on the schedule. Who doesn't want to see a 15-inning marathon where the score after 9 innings is 0-0 because both teams can't find the ball to hit.
  12. Keaschall trying to become a permanent lawn ornament at PNC park with that swing.
  13. Exactly. All the earlier blunders are still there, but the Twins had fought back to get in the game and would likely have a lead had Shelton not left Funderburk in too long.
  14. I think the Twins need to get a couple of bats sawed off like that. There are some vampires lurking around that could use an impaling.
  15. The funny answer is when the Jolly Roger shows up and steals your pig roast.
  16. I'm ok with that Bell AB. He did drive a run in. When he hit it softly on the ground, I was expecting an inning-ending double play.
  17. That seems to be the Twins' luck. Buxton hits a ball off of the wall and because the launch angle was so high, no one could score.
  18. With that as the concept, the Brewers should be in last since they are the only NL Central team to give up a game to the Twins.
  19. I didn't understand this move at all. Klein can go multiple innings, and you started with two switch hitters and a righty. Funderburk barely got out of the last inning.
  20. Is that like Dante traversing to the next level of hell? Asking for a friend. 😉
  21. Unfortunately, he really can't. After burning the bullpen yesterday, it's Funderburk and Klein will likely have to make it through this game unless, by some voodoo magic, the Twins take the lead.
  22. Unlike Randy Marsh here, we need to hear a Bell!
  23. This was her last game with the CWS. Slightly below average, but definitely not the worst we have ever seen.
  24. Still not in love with the lazy soft tosses by Keaschall. One of those times, Bell will drop the ball having to reach for it.
