  1. Baldelli wouldn't know how to win if he had Judge, Soto and Ohtani on the team. It's time to move on, if the owners had any sense they would have after the same free fall last season. The boys just stop competing because he has no fire or passion. He just sits with a blank face all the time.
  2. Lewis has some of the most electric talent in the league when on, I feel bad for him as a fan since I want him to succeed. Get well soon bro and take it easy!
  3. The math is less than 1.25 for the Twins. No new owner wants to carry on the debt.
  4. We should have obliged Jax and gave him a shot at starter. We still could but Baldelli doesn't think winning.
  5. He's been better than Correa at 1/200 or less the cost. He might not be gold glove caliber yet but it's not unobtainable. I think he's only gonna get better too.
  6. We need someone to replace Bride. He can't buy a hit right now, besides his ability to whiff bats as a positional pitcher and some decent defense at 3rd he's a liability offensively.
  7. Every time we get a real quality start out of our pitchers the offense sputters and we lose. We had 4x the hits but only tied at end of regulation. Sad. Time to fire Baldelli already.
  8. The real question should have been why we didn't just intentionally walk Altuve after the first base was open. That would have been two fly ball outs vs the next two hitters (less a threat than Altuve). Instead he flings his bat out to get an infield hit. Which advances Peña to 3rd, and a sac fly ties the game.
  9. You're asking a question that doesn't apply to Baldelli. Most major league clubs have players practice and regularly bunt, but not him. That and no one really steals bases. We've been one of the worst base running teams for years now under Baldelli.
  10. Man your telling me we can make a trade for not even a top 20 Sox system for a 100mph reliever. But we can't make a trade for Civale from the brewers but the bum White Sox can?
  11. We should be talking about the poor move of trading Alcala for nothing. Yes he's struggled but who hasn't besides Duran, France, Buxton, Larnach and Castro this season. It's time to clean house and rebuild around some pitching depth.
  12. We might as well just call up every top pitching prospect in our system and throw them into the fray.
  13. Either way, if we dont start getting RBIs it's not gonna matter much anyhow. While giving up that many runs we only had like 12-13 runs while giving up 34! That's not a legit contender that's pro vs. amateur.
  14. I'd hate to lose any of our outfielders. We do have McCrusher though who could with other prospects bring in a veteran pitcher.
  15. It's time to try another young pitcher and trade SWR. Unless we're gonna put Jax in as a starter!? I think he'd be great and maybe a Cy young candidate.
  16. This is what we're looking at going forward. With the struggles of Lewis and Correa we have no real power beyond Buxton, Walllner and Larnach. Now we lost 2 of our pitching rotation so I expect we'll continue to fall in the ranks facing any decent offenses. Maybe it's time to find a new pitching coach? Is Pete Macky wearing out our starters with all the same shoulder strains.
  17. If he adds a sweeper or splitter to his repertoire he'll be that much better. He needs more put away pitches. His and Zebbys pitch counts get high quick if they face a batter that isn't going to go quietly.
  18. Is there a workout routine that were having them do that's too much strain on their shoulders? This is getting too much to handle. It's already such a tight division and now we're down 2 of our best arms. Season done?
  19. I think we should just prioritize pitching in all 3 top picks. We don't need a SS. We got plenty of candidates including Lee who can play 2nd and short.
  20. I was hoping McCrusher was gonna be in the regular rotation. The both of them are big swing giants. Wallner could be better on the defensive end in my opinion. Like Aaron Judge he's got length and athleticism to catch fly balls.
  21. Idk why we didn't try and make a trade or attempt to sign a veteran arm this past off-season. Now we gotta do it before the deadline. If we want to be around in October.
  22. Right now we need a veteran 5th pitcher. Now more than ever since Lopez has been injured. We should be on 6 man pitching rotation to give the pitchers more rest. But of course we got cheap owners who don't care about winning. So I expect we go on a free fall as was abundantly clear today with Festa and Alcala.
  23. We got thumpers waiting in the wings. Can we focus on our coaching staff? Let's replace the 1st and 3rd base coaches with someone who can help us steal more, and someone who doesn't send any and all players home on hits directly to outfielders. We've lost how many games since last year by Watkins sending runners home on plays that should have been held up at 3rd.
  24. He just needs to go back to his old stance and bat. He's trying out any and every bat. Last season he just wasn't squaring up balls. Go back to what worked before bro.
