Hopefully, the Twins will only pitch to Judge when they have to. There are times I honestly have to wonder what Molitor and Co. are thinking when they pitch to someone rather than pitch around someone.
Another thing that frustrates me about Gibson is that the man is probably one of the best fielding pitchers I've ever seen. Were Gibson to ever get things together, he probably would stand a good chance of winning a gold glove.
I believe there have been a couple of MLB players, recently, who have retired before their contract was up. Adam Laroche for one. Could have stuck around and collected and opted not to.
I see your mind went there too. You should probably seek professional help. Or write TD game day threads. I suspect certain moderators prefer the latter to the former.
I have to wonder what Falvey and Levine are thinking right now. The Twins are on the fringe of contending and, meanwhile, the FO duo is still trying to find their way around the organization along with trying to figure out what's for real and what is smoke and mirrors. Sell? Buy? Grin and Bear it while standing pat? Run shrieking from the organization? Wondering if they should take up drinking and drugs?
The Dodgers and Houston in July. Talk about a dose of crushing reality. But,that's okay, because the Twins have gone from doormats to competitive in just a year, which is great. Speaking of great, great job, RB!
