  1. Other than that, how was the game thread tonight?
  2. Yeah he’s throwing straight breaking pitches aint he
  3. Too soon for the “Buxton catches that” jokes?
  4. Nice at bat by Miranda. 97.3 mph line out to deep right
  5. Then it was “must be sticky stuff” nope not that either
  6. That is awesome! … proving that the best jokes are always spontaneous
  7. Channeling Norm MacDonald the G.O.A.T. on Weekend Update: “The Minnesota Twins announced today that pitcher Tyler Mahle, a recent trade acquisition, would be heading to the 15-day Injured List with an unspecified arm injury. “President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey said the Twins were trying to figure out ways to reduce the numbers of pitchers with injuries on their staff” … You know, here’s an idea for how the Twins can reduce the number of pitchers with injuries: Stop trading for pitchers with injuries.
  8. That’s the punchline of a joke somewhere
  9. Here’s my favorite home grown Twins joke, courtesy of yours truly ”Do you know the quickest way to get thrown out of a bar or restaurant in the Twin Cities? Ask them to turn one of their monitors on to the Twins game.”
  10. My favorite Twins joke, courtesy of Dan Cole, KFAN Common Man “I was walking back to my car, and discovered that someone had broken in to it, glass all over, and when I looked inside, someone had left a pair of Twins tickets on my dashboard.”
  11. Ah the old strikeout wild pitch baserunner. Feels like a conspiracy to pad Verlander’s K total tonight
  12. I love when pitchers surrender screaming line drives to the outfield and then point their fingers in the air like, ‘you should have this’
  13. It’s getting desperate around here—math is needed
  14. I am seeing people using modern Statcast-type data to justify how the pitching has been used, but then fall back on the old fashioned stuff to lament how the offense has been struggling. Lack of 2 out hitting, can’t hit with runners in scoring position, and so on. (Not singling anyone out.) The recent stretch of games notwithstanding, it’s been the pitching, specifically the bullpen, that has hurt this team the most. Leads in the 8th and 9th inning, whether the score is 3-1 or 8-6, should result in wins, and too often this year, they haven’t,
  15. I think Correa’s plan was to opt out, but I wouldn’t bet on it at this moment. Turner and Bogaerts may want to stay put in LA and Boston, and the Yankees might throw all their money at retaining Judge. A new Correa deal would look paltry in comparison to Judge’s. The shortstop carousel that was expected this upcoming offseason may not materialize— yet to be seen.
  16. Those are the Rules. Twins have several off-days this week and the lesser bullpens guys will need to stay fresh.
  17. I wouldn’t ask him to change it. That’s kind of when you get into trouble ruining guys.
  18. Thielbar’s ball/glove clap right before delivery is kinda fun, but seems like a lot of wasted movement. Anyway, it’s kind of his thing and doesn’t look like it affects his pitches.
  19. Correct; and that puts them down to zero, so six of one, half dozen of the other
  20. Although with the new overtime rules games aren’t expected to go as long, and Beckham and Leon were still available
