Week in Review: Flashbacks to Failure
Richie the Rally Goat replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Earned runs. The unearned ones don’t count. the offense is super pathetic, but so is the fielding -
Not me

51%? He could be bound and gagged in the dugout, and all we’d hear is “put away your spreadsheet Rocco”. It was a stupid call that cost two runs. 2 runs should not be insurmountable. Rocco doesn’t throw a pitch, or swing a bat. the players gotta play, Falvey needs to get some players who can play. and yes, Rocco needs to manage like he knows what he’s doing.

TOOTBLAN!

Just the right amount of shabby not a single .800 OPS in the lineup, and the closest is a catcher
-
Dont forget the Pohlads also want to keep managing the team that they’ve mismanaged into a sharp decline LOL some people’s kids…

Target Field Attendance 2025
Richie the Rally Goat replied to Vanimal46's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
I’ve been to two, my third is this week -
Here’s the thing with ERA, the runs have to be earned. Last year Twins pitchers were punished by ERA in part because the fielders behind them were statues. Lowest range metrics in MLB last year and lowest errors. They weren’t charged with errors because none of them could get to the dang ball. this year, Buxton and Bader in the outfield swings the range metrics quite a bit ranked 12 in MLB (way too early for sample sizes, but I’m going with it anyways). But man that infield… France is short, he’s scooping the digs OK, but a couple throws per week sail by a couple inches that 5’10” Carlos Santana would have stabbed. Lee and Correa are good, but that’s only two of the three, which brings us to the old school .981 fielding percentage, 25th in baseball with 21 errors tied for 7th most. last year ERA was ballooned by the crap fielding, this year buoyed by it.

Well said Nick!

Gotta pull that a little more Clem!

Or move Paddack to the pen and bring Festa/Mathews up to start

I think Jax comes back out

Jax is not a fireman…

Ugh…

Clemens making a case to stay over Gasper.

I was trying to wrap my head around that, especially when it was a positive differential. They have three 11 run games that boosts their runs per game from about 3 per game (if those three games were average) to almost 4 runs per game. Every team has outliers, it’s not exactly fair analysis, but over the last few years they’ve needed almost 5 runs per game to win. This team needs runs badly.

He’s Canadian, thank his people for Poutine and cheap oil

Honestly, with 4 wins, 11 losses, 3 saves, and just watching the blowups, I expected this bullpen to be below average to bottom third in most categories. 12 in WHIP 7 in K% 14 in ERA 8 in FIP 15th IP so average-ish to the beginning of the season. It needs to be better, this team can’t hit or field to save their lives
