Some diamond dust out on the pitcher's mound wouldn't have hurt as well.
-
I expect a challenge. Nothing to lose here
-
Bottom of the 9th. Save situation. Trying to complete the sweep. Time to bring out the theme song!
-
I have a feeling with Gomez only throwing 7 pitches to get out of the inning that it will be up to him to get the final outs. TBD if it ends up going into extras.
-
Are you sure this isn't the race you are watching?
-
Jen Pawol gives one and she takes one away.
-
Come sail away! Come sail away! Come sail away with me!

I know they don't do this anymore either. If it had been a blowout one way or the other, I would have liked to see Contreras take one in the pocket.
-
Exactly. I believe at the beginning of the season, the high estimation would have been around .500. Kind of how they are playing now. As of the moment, .500 gets you a playoff spot. I don't expect that to continue, but it's fun to watch them play meaningful games that they don't seem to ever be out of.
-
You want real fighting words with unpopular player opinions? Outman has put together better AB's with regular playing time. Maybe not enough to stop him from being DFA'd, but enough that he's not an automatic out.
-
It did sound like a Rocco-esque suggestion to sub Larnach, the current hottest hitter in the Twins lineup, out for a RH batter. Manny Margot suggestion maybe?
-
You're going to take out the hottest hitter in the Twins lineup because he bats left-handed? Are you a Rocco burner account? 😜
-
I believe Narvaez has a reputation as being one of the best catchers for stopping the run. Top that off with a damp day, doesn't make a ton of sense.
-
I questioned this as well, but there was a chain of Best Westerns name the Ramkota that all looked the same in the Dakotas and they all had grand ballrooms where there were chandeliers. It is possible that the story checks out.
-
At least pull the sweeps up so you're not digging the ground up on your path to first.
-
Kody must have visited Livengood, AK in the offseason because that hit only happens once a season.
-
Lee just about got thrown out not getting out of 1st gear and into road gear.
-
They have already exceeded my expectations for the 2nd inning in making Sonny work.
-
It is the second inning, but your point is still valid. 😉
-
A 29 pitch first inning. Now where the Twins typically fail is making him work another grueling inning. 2nd inning will be 11 pitches and he will be back on schedule.
-
I agree. The multi-inning reliever has been making a comeback for some time now. I'm not sure we will see 3 inning relief appearances being as common as they were when the save was created as a stat, but definitely 4-6 out appearances are becoming more common. As for his usage, it sounds like they still want him stretched out in case they do need him as a spot starter. Won't be the first or the last pitcher to toil in mid to long relief before getting his chance to be a full-time starter.

Absolutely! Contreras may not think it, but Caratini probably saved him from getting drilled in his next AB. -

I think Caratini was standing up for the team on Contreras's antics. I've seen that a lot with catchers, especially when it looks like they are acting up around the bases. Contreras backed down quickly after Caratini confronted him.
