    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!

    Honest question for the diehard and faithful here: In how many computer simulations did the front office see this team get to mid-May with the worst record in baseball?

    I also think the Twins arent using this card responsibly...
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Don’t be so sure. falvine always have a card up their sleeve Uno!

    It has more to do with the Twins not filling out a rotation. Keuchel would look better than Shoemaker in this rotation, and also Happ, unfortunately, though I didn’t mind the Happ signing. And I personally think Pineda is always an injury/performance/suspension risk.

    For context, I honestly think Gladden is saying this tongue-in-cheek
  7. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I do remember being chastized for suggesting Keuchel would be a good signing

    and an inexplicable Dobnak extension (happy for Dobnak tho)

    another classic thread open, @sampleSizeOfOne!

    Rookie mistake. Here's how a veteran pitcher does it.
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    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?

    Thanks for the replies @wsnydes @theBOMisthebomb

    It looked like three infielders running to second to receive the throw from Rogers. Seems inefficient?
  14. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Elvis has left the building baseline.

    I guess If it was hit into the flower pots on the overhang, it’s probably just a deep fly out in 7 of 8 parks?

    I actually enjoyed the game today. Didn’t have a problem with any of Rocco’s moves. Nice to see a new face in Refsnyder who helped today and hopefully Kirilloff is getting close. So glad for Sanó. Gladden called it. Sanó got ahold of two balls and one of them one the game. Maybe he can get on one of his streaks, or maybe it fires up a couple other guys. Lots of us have been asking for Rocco and the front office to let a starter pitch the 7th sometimes, and that finally happened today too. That’s not always going to work out, but today it did. Obviously the bullpen is still short some talent, and the fifth rotation spot will be a concern, but a win is a win; you only play them one at a time and you can’t get it all back all at once.

    And a light stone (that was rolled up the hill)

    Two on, none out, Here we go again,..

    110 MPH off the bat. A little more lift, and...
  21. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I do like this matchup and Rocco’s management of the situation here
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    It does!

    Let me inform you: That ERA+ number is dragged down by some poor rookie season stats. In fact, while Berrios may have a career 104 ERA+, he has never had an ERA+ that low in any season he has ever pitched. Except his rookie season.
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Huh? I guess i have been using a different definition of “all that good” than you have
