    He improved from his last at bat. At least he is missing pitches in the zone as opposed to out of the zone like his last at bat.

    I love the optimism! So you're saying there's a chance!

    Now the worst part of the game. When is the bullpen activated?
  4. Western SD Fan
    Here is where we need to take advantage of the mistake.

    It looked like Joe Ryan held his breath a little bit when Lewis was calling for the ball. It almost looked like Lewis didn't see it right away.

    Maybe we can free Bo Naylor from Columbus.

    Just scored again. Now 2-0 Wild

    Return of the 10 cent beer night in Cleveland?

    I think he needs his eyes checked to see if he can find the strike zone. No pitcher is going to throw him a ball in the zone until he can prove he can lay off the junk.

    More than I think the Twins would care to admit.

    Great defense by Lewis! I'm very happy he is not taking his offensive woes out to the field.

    I thought Minnesota was supposed to be a civilized state. Isn't having your dog come to the ballpark to watch the Twins considered animal cruelty?

    I was actually surprised they gave Suzuki the job over Torii Hunter.

    But who will stop the rain? Also, the bathroom is on the right!

    The cam operation is brought to you by the letter 'B', as in Bullpen Confidence Level, which is shaky at best.

    The big statistic is that the Twins are 9-22 in the last 4 seasons at Progressive Field. You know what else changed at that time? Cleveland changed their team's name. Maybe the Twins should lobby to have Cleveland change their name back to the Indians for purposes of getting that mojo back? 😜

    The Angels could only score a rouge in Toronto as part of a 14-1 rout. For the moment, the Twins are ahead!

    I do think there is a way that this works. Kriedler is not a permanent option. You send Lewis down for the minimum to clear his head, feast on some AAA pitching for confidence, and work on his swing outside of the bright lights of Target Field. Once his assignment is complete, he comes back up and we see if he is progressing forward. This idea allows Culpepper some more time in AAA since last night was his first night back in the field. When I expect Culpepper to come up, there should be a more permanent decision to be made on Lewis or Lee.

    I finally got to look at the two important plays last night. First, the Keaschall 'error', which I don't think is an error. Even if played properly, would be a tough play with the runner in front of you. The discussion from the radio boys last night suggested that the runner cannot go out of his lane to affect the play but has every right to the running lane that Keaschall has to field the ball. If it would have been done again, Keaschall would have waited back on the ball to get Ramirez out. Ramirez is fast, but he's not Bazzana fast, so he would have had time. Another learning experience for a young man in a play that isn't seen very often. After seeing Borrego's send of Jeffers, it looked aggressive, but not egregious. The egregious part was Lee not clearing the bat so Jeffers had a better sliding land into home. I'm not sure I would have done it considering we had one out at Messick was teetering on collapse, but it's not the worst send I've seen ever, or even this week.

    Congratulations on your trade to the Twins! Welcome to the dumpster fire! First appearance, bases loaded and 2 outs. Don't screw it up!

    When Lee is on, I have liked his approach because he is willing to take the ball the other way and take what the pitcher gives him. Of course, he needs to do that for a lot longer to develop a reputation for it.
  22. Western SD Fan
    The radio guys suggested that Jeffers talked to the home plate umpire asking whether it was a called strike or on the swing. He likely didn't challenge if was called out on the check swing.

    I have nothing against the current Twins coaching staff. My point was that Carl Willis has been at this for a long time and seems to get the best out his pitchers. You see that when many of these Cleveland pitchers go to other teams. They never seem to have the same level of success when they leave Cleveland.
  24. Western SD Fan
    The difference maker is Carl Willis as the Cleveland pitching coach. Nothing against Pete Maki, but Carl Willis has been doing it for years and seems to always have great pitching and I think it has to be linked to him.

    Not without losing the DH.
