    Stewart pitched two innings and then got injured again. We could have traded him for a bucket of hot dog water and the move would have been fine.

    The AL Central is refusing to let the Twins die

    First in-person game of the year and boy did it suck. Twins are losing in the most inefficient way possible. An 11-11 team with a +12 run differential and excellent starting pitching.

    I think we believe "the next young superster is close to arriving" I'm not sure that's actually true.
  18. GopherMike
    As much as we'd all like to rely on Kreidler-bombs to bail this team out, we'll probably need to develop a second offensive weapon for the long stretch.

    You watch that filthy mouth when you talk about Orze. Twins are 6-1 when he pitches. Extend that out and we'll be, like, 139-23 if he pitches every day. That's just math.

    Pardon my language, but gosh darn this is a lot of fun

    Eric Orze once again leads the Twins to victory. 6-0 when he pitches.

    I don't think baseball has settled on the actual value of a manager. But I like Derek Shelton.
  25. GopherMike
    He can play CF and nobody else on this roster really can (Martin can pretend in a pinch) That said---yeah....I think he's the most vulnerable hitter on the 40-man. There's an argument that Roden deserves a chance soon, if not now. I can't see anyone claiming Outman if we sent him down at this point. And I'm not sure I'd care if they did.
  26. GopherMike
    Kendry Rojas was the key part of the Varland trade--not Roden. I didn't care for the trade--but that's an important distinction.

    1) It was a bad trade and I wish they could have gotten literally anything of value and/or not held so much salary 2) That doesn't necessarily mean we should have kept him....or that we'd be a better team with him than without him. It's impossible to know. But yeah...it was a salary dump. That's well understood by everyone.

    Plate discipline has been great so far this year. 8th in OBP coming into the game despite being 19th in average. For a team that doesn't have a lot of fantastic hitters, it's causing the offensive sum of its parts to be much more. Love to see it.
  32. GopherMike
    Ryan seemed genuinely confused at the sight of someone playing defense
  33. GopherMike
    *shrug* I don't think carrying a roster-spot for someone to hit .730 OPS just against lefties and just to play 3B (poorly) makes sense. Kreidler can’t hit, obviously. Nobody is arguing otherwise. The point is that he actually solves a real roster problem right now. Wagaman doesn’t. “Maybe he can fake a platoon at third because he’s been less bad vs lefties” is not much of a role.
