  1. It's not a full challenge back in the states. It's only 3/4 of a challenge back in the states.
  2. The unintended piggyback pitching performance. Very nice by Morris to save the bullpen.
  3. I would like to call it The Wallner Effect. Apparently, it's contagious.
  4. That 2019 team was always used as proof to show that Rocco knew what he was doing. Here's a thought, Shelton was the bench coach for the 2019 team. What if it was Shelton that really motivated the team as the bench coach? Shelton was also a holdover from Molitor's staff. I'm not suggesting that Shelton is the answer to all of our questions. It does seem early on that the swings aren't nearly as big as they have been in the last couple of years. Sure, there was the 13 game winning streaks, but there were long stretches of losing in between those streaks.
  5. Early on, Taj is looking like he is in the last stage in transitioning to a pitcher vs a thrower. A thrower has good stuff. A pitcher trusts his stuff. I think if he trusts his stuff, his efficiency will improve.
  6. Did they stock up on Canadian maple bats? Are they bringing them back to Minnesota? Can we leave Outman at the border as a refugee?
  7. Has anyone noticed this year that they have not put the expected run graphic after last year?
  8. The Clemens bandwagon is back!! Everyone get on board!
  9. Now we can tune into the Saints game. Zebby has 3 shutout innings so far in a tidy 35 pitches. Offense lagging so far.
  10. I love the light use of ABS challenges today. Saving them all for Jeffers in the 9th.
  11. I'm watching through the Twins.tv on the MLB app on my TV, which is why I was surprised by the commercial. Maybe it's tailored to my TV market even though it's MLB.TV. Thanks for the info!
  12. I'm going to apologize in advance for being political, but I want to ask a question. Is anyone else seeing a commercial with Tucker Carlson? I'm just surprised that it would be on a Twins broadcast is all. The views on Tucker doesn't matter, it just surprises me that such a commercial would be on.
  13. I could have seen him going batter by batter into the 8th, but it appears like he is done.
  14. Great job by Larnach drawing the walk. A great job by Lauer as well in giving the Jays some length after the disastrous 3rd inning.
  15. Makes sense. Maybe given both have mediocre arms, you give the weaker fielder the position that he is most comfortable playing. I know that Larnach has played more RF than Martin. If you consider Larnach the weaker fielder, it may make more sense playing him in the position he is more comfortable playing.
  16. If you look at the dimensions of Rogers Centre. There is slightly less ground to cover in RF. This may help Martin with a weaker arm. I would also suggest that Martin's speed will help Buxton cover for Larnach in LF.
  17. Bases loaded. Jays have the Twins right where they want them. Incoming GIDP.
  18. Brooks Lee: Who is this Culpepper character people keep talking about?
  19. I don't hate the lineup. I had stated yesterday that Wallner needed a day off and that his bat was becoming worse than Larnach in the field. I like that Morris was called up. Possibly a glimpse into the future. Many of our best pitchers started here as a call up for a reliever.
  20. I was going to suggest Altavilla, but I also see that he is not on the 40-man roster. I don't see Raya coming up just yet. He just pitched tonight in Toledo, and I would surmise that if he was to be brought up that they wouldn't have pitched him.
  21. Shelton update: Lewis and Laweryson both going on the IL. Getting a fresh face in the bullpen will be helpful, but I'm sad for Laweryson since he was looking to be one of the better options out of the pen. Lewis just seemed to be doomed after he tweaked his knee yesterday.
  22. I noticed right before the game started. While I still want the Pohlads to sell, It does seem that Tom is not oblivious to the world and understands that he needs to pull out all the stops to try to get rears in the seats.
