    Expected batting average was .650 the Baseball Savant site has its own free game recap pages which you can access. Yesterday's game is here: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/gamefeed?gamePk=633799

    Hopefully you will have a great trip and be back on TwinsDaily in that time!

    It could even be someone who hasn’t been called up yet! Okay, enough snark. A couple weeks ago, I would have put Kirilloff and Pineda on this list, as well. Sometimes there is some horse-trading, depending on who the managers are. I’m not sure the Twins would want to send Kirilloff. Who knows.

    That’s the catch. Sano can get on a couple of nice streaks during the season, but during the post-season, when pitchers are better and more focused on batter weaknesses, Sano becomes a liability.

    You are clogging the game recap with this?

    Nice to see Tyler Wells pitch three clean innings and get the W, at least for me.
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    It’s a valid opinion that I do not happen to agree with, but do you really think the Twins could trade all that talent, and still replace/develop it in time to contend for something in 2023?
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Yeah what's With Cruz?

    The crappy-ass Twins the Baltimore Orioles. Twins were less horrid. (how’d I do?)

    It’s been giving me a headache too, but by your line of thinking, I humbly suggest that with every subpar Berrios start, the good teams circle in even closer for the kill...

    Jerry Cantrell and Layne Staley have something to say about this too

    If his instructions were to just go out and throw strikes to get his feel back, I give his outing an A grade. Here are the batters he faced in the first inning tonight. Note pitch location. (Also note: there may be an issue with how MiLb plotted pitches at bottom of strike zone) Anyway, Duran’s first five batters last night:

    Looking for silver linings: The Twins are 2-0 when Tyler Duffey is suspended? The Twins didn’t lose any ground to Detroit, who also lost today? The Twins are still 2–1 when playing as the Cocaine Dentists?

    Did this help? This is gold. There is a Cody Bellinger Little League home run, where his attack angle looks very negative but the ball flies a long way. Bat struck ball in the right spot. (Don’t know why I thought of that, but I did)
  15. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Not sure, but the Twins traded 6 full time guys/contributors at the deadline back in 2018. and I bet if you tried, you could find a whole lot of posts praising those trades for what their payoff would be three years later in 2021 .. The one thing that is different is that Berrios is by far a better trade chip than any of those guys in 2018 were.
  16. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Dead on. Marvelous. (thanks for linking back to Part I.)
  17. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I wonder if increased strikeouts are a byproduct of optimizing Attack Angle for power. I bet (hypothesize) it is and I bet there’s been some swing coaching on the Twins lineup that has been counterproductive. I would like to see Kepler’s data, in particular. I remember that nice flat swing from earlier years somehow generating all that backspin. “Let Kep swing how he wants, how he did when he first came up.” Thanks @Parker Hageman. I will have to get on Substack.

    2-1. At least it was a competitive game to a good pitcher.
  19. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Best guess is both will start both games of double header in LA today
  20. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Sounds like a good plan—win the game you are playing on the field on that day.

    I think the Twins have been somewhat lucky, actually. Earlier in the season I recall the other team hitting several near home runs that went just foul. Don’t remember details unfortunately. The Twins got plenty of luck in Sunday’s game, with replay calls and such, then they booted the game away anyway because Donaldson missed a catch playing out of position, probably related to shifting with runners on base and not communicating good fielding assignments to the players. In the first game against the White Sox last week (Tuesday, May 11), Polanco hit an infield popup that wasn’t caught—again, some good luck. Instead of a two out, nobody on situation, it led to a three run inning and a three run lead. But the Twins lost that game, too, in big part because they seem to think they need to hold back Maeda’s innings for later in the season (I think he should have pitched another inning) and are not doing anything meaningful to address the bullpen. A win against the White Sox on May 11 would have cut the lead in the standings to 6.0 games, and maybe given them some momentum. Are the Twins unlucky? No, not in my opinion!

    If the only player on the left side of the diamond covers second on short infield grounders fielded by the catcher or pitcher, who is responsible for third base: the pitcher, or catcher? The left fielder?
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Thanks for the replies @wsnydes @theBOMisthebomb
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    It looked like three infielders running to second to receive the throw from Rogers. Seems inefficient?
  25. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Elvis has left the building baseline.
