    I absolutely loved the broadcasts! The stories and good-natured ribbing was fun to hear. There was also a lot of insight as to what they thought the pitcher would throw, the batters thought process, base stealing, hit and run etc... As for not knowing what was going on in the game all you had to do was watch your television screen. Baseball isn't that difficult to understand.

    Oh my he has a - 4 OAA. And just how many of those OAA’s have scored or led to more runs being scored. Twins Daily is embedded with nothing but negative writers who expect every damn player to be perfect. Larnach is a decent outfielder with a good bat. Too bad this writer could not name any specific game(s) where Larnach’s defense cost us a win. Oh, by the way, Buxton’s speed and arm strength is down, Lee shouldn’t be at third base because his throws are only 87 mph where they need to be 88.8 mph, Ober’s velocity has dropped 4 mph, Keaschall isn’t hitting home runs, etc.etc.etc. Enough is enough! Since when has any team played an All Star at every position in even one game.

    Rebuild? You can't be serious! The Twins got almost NOTHING in their fire sale of top relief pitchers last year. What makes anybody think trading their best players this year will be any different. In order to rebuild you need a foundation. You don't trade two or three of your best players. You build around them. Especially when you don't have a clue how to make a decent trade.

    The run LA scored in the first inning never should have scored. Yes, Edman hit the ball hard but Keaschall should have made the play. He only needed two steps to his right to get to the ball but then he let the ball play him. At a minimum he should have knocked the ball down and kept it in the infield. Had he played it properly it would have been out #3.

    The pitch calls are coming in from the dugout to the catcher.
  26. Maybe Next Year
    Here is a unique idea- how about you let the catcher call the pitches from behind the plate instead of the manager from the dugout. The catcher has a much better idea of the pitcher's stuff during the game than the manager. Case in point - last night after Ryan gave up 3 runs in 1 2/3 innings his headpiece quit working. At that point Caratini started calling pitches. Ryan pitched a scoreless 4 1/3 innings after that. I realize it's just a small sample size but with all the problems we are having with our bullpen perhaps it's time to put all the over analysis on pitch selection from the bench on hold and let the catcher call the game.

    I disagree about turning him into a utility player. Put him at one position, play him there every day, let him learn it and get comfortable at it. It will help sharpen his focus at the plate as well as allowing him to become a much better defensive player. I would play him at first base.

    Has it occurred to anybody that pitching coach Pete Maki might be part of the problem? Just asking.
  29. Maybe Next Year
    Bring him up and DFA Outman. Easy decision.

    Just like Baldelli we seem to have another manager who has no clue whatsoever how to manage a pitching staff. Seven pitchers last night - seven. There was no need to use 7 pitchers.

    Gee- just a month and a half ago the majority of the posters and writers on this web page said Lee was a bust. No defense, no offense. Send him down, 😂

    Good grief! His bat speed has increased but is still too slow, he extends his right arm too quick, he rotate a hair too early, his contact point is too far back, he’s not hitting for power, blah, blah, blah. How about this - his strikeout rate is 18%. That means he is putting the ball in play. I don’t care if he ever hits a home run. Singles and doubles would be just fine. If his batting average is .270 or higher and he drives in 80 or more runs who gives a damn. All this emphasis on hitting home runs is ridiculous. It is and has been detrimental to many players.

    I agree with you on the set up or closer role. I felt that the article was way too fixated on perceived flaws hence my sarcastic response.
  34. Maybe Next Year
    After reading this article I am left wondering how he ever made it to the majors. With all the “flaws” he has it doesn’t sound like there is any hope whatsoever for him to be a good pitcher. - no horizontal movement on his fastball -can’t get to the bottom of the zone - easy for batters to spot his breaking ball unexceptional carry on his fastball -low strike out rate - change up thrown at different arm angle and arm speed - uses a circle change grip There is no hope for this guy! 😂😂😂

    Omg- what will we ever do about Ober. Velocity is way down. Get rid of him. He’s washed up. His OBP, WHIP, LGBTQ, XXMP, FRPG, BS, and numerous other stats are horrible!
