  1. The Rockies have a top 10 offense in the league, stat wise, it's their pitching that has been holding them back, unfortunately, their pitching has managed to outdo the twins, who have also managed to be top 10 offensively...
  2. His stuff profiles better than SWR, so at least you can say it's more doable to work out.
  3. I think Paredes has a pitch sequence issue, lots of times he's ended up in 0-2, 1-2 counts but can't manage to find the right pitch to strike out with
  4. hard to rally against a pitcher with an ERA just under 7 and a BAA over .300
  5. more locked in now? maybe just intentionally walk goodman next time around and things will be good?
  6. the first one was a sweeper that hung pretty poorly, this one was an outside of the zone fastball. All of the rockies' hits have been on pitches outside the zone
  7. Ugly play, luckily only needed one more pitch to end the inning
  8. raya hasn't properly debuted yet, once he actually debuts, he'll probably be added to the chart.
  9. Surely the twins can get a big enough lead against Lorenzen that Paredes will get his first major league win today, they haven't lost a game he's started but he's only been given enough innings to qualify once. Shelton's been letting him go longer into games as the appearances increase, so wonder if they might let him go for a 6th or 7th if he's solid today. Will definitely be a challenge though, he has been much less effective against left handed batters both in the majors and in St. Paul and the rockies are running 5/9 LHB not counting Castro as a switch hitter which would make it 6/9. But that could also just be the fact that he's faced twice as many left handed batters as right handed batters so far so the numbers will generally be bigger across the board
  10. actually they updated it recently, should be Lorenzen vs Paredes and Feltner vs Prielipp. I think they sometimes do openers for those guys too, so last minute we could see that, but those two will show up in some form this weekend
  11. Even with the twins' defensive woes, you still have to keep in mind that the Rockies' pitching is very shaky and questionable and very easy to take advantage of.
  12. Unfortunate, but I do think this means it's basically impossible the Twins trade Ryan at the deadline. They can't test the depth further than it is right now if they're feeling remotely in the AL race. Also means they're probably going to stretch Paredes further as a starter if he's the current option. and they're going to have to at least until Ober is back(if that even happens)
  13. Wrobleski has been getting lucky this year, all his underlying numbers suggest he's supposed to be doing much worse than he actually is, eventually a team has to expose him and hopefully these guys do.
  14. I definitely think he has room to adjust, seems like they're tweaking some mechanics and it's led to some varied results while they try to hone in on a happy medium between some of improved mechanics and what worked in the past for him. Interestingly enough, despite not having many strikeouts, his whiff rate on his non-sweeper pitches have actually improved across the board compared to his AAA results, however his overall average has dropped because his sweeper, which was his put away pitch, hasn't generated nearly the same amount he got in St. Paul. Have to figure out what adjustments they're going to have to make to try and bring it back up.
  15. The command wasn't that sharp today, but was still able to get through 5 with only 2ER while surrendering the most walks he's given up in a game. If the offense was sharper today, this would probably look better.
  16. Struggled to find the zone early in the game and that came back to haunt, but that was a quicker inning. Might be the typical bulk count today, but I'd just let him go as long as he can just to save guys for the Dodgers tomorrow
  17. He's struggling to find the zone today, 3 walks is more than he's ever done in an outing
  18. I would also prefer this since it makes it more likely Paredes could get his first major league win, but Rojas probably is at most going to get like 2 innings today if he even pitches since he hadn't really ramped up that quickly in rehab
  19. This team will look so unserious if the corresponding move when Abel is reactivated isn't Lawrence being gone
