You can borrow my likes as I don't think I'll be around for this one. Just let me know. 'Like' this post to confirm. -
Lineups are up. I'm glad to see an old friend back in center right away tonight. I think Buxton will win gold gloves, and if he learns to hit along the way, all the better.

This is the view from 35,000 feet, and it is certainly valid. But looking at Dozier, I don't see any reason he shouldn't continue hitting home runs for years. Look at the Blue Jays guys. Donaldson, Batista, and Encarnacion are all older than Dozier and continue to mash year after year (Batista having a down year). If that is the "plateau" Dozier is entering... That said, trading Dozier for the right MLB starter is definitely a good debate. I just don't think you should. Santana is a different story. He is having one of his best seasons but he is the only thing we got until these younger guys start showing something. I don't know.

Left-handed batters have 16 plate appearances against O'Rourke this season, with 0 hits. That would be something to build on going forward. I don't know if the "loogy" is still a thing or not, or ever was, but I sense that Molitor and Allen don't really believe in the value of that stuff even if it was. Edit that maybe those 16 PA were against Schafer types or there were some screaming line drives. I don't know. Just looked at the surface: 16 PA, 0-12, 2/5 BB/K

The team is not that far away, in my opinion. The talent is there, they just need to unlock it.
-
If the Twins keep Dozier and lose for several more seasons, or barely miss the postseason again, it won't be because they didn't trade Dozier. Dozier is a home run hitter and will continue to be a home run hitter for several more seasons.

Perhaps the Twins should be run more like a business

I would also take an honest look at the media people that support this organization. I would save Provus and Gladden, who are very good at their jobs, but fire most others who broadcast radio or television, including Bremer and Bert. I would end press privileges for the LaValle E Neal types. -
Article: A Broken Defensive Heart
Hosken Bombo Disco replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Rosario-Buxton-Kepler will be an above average defensive outfield sooner rather than later. In time they could be better than many people right now think. -
we see what you did there, ashberyjhon
-
Very nice play, fellas.
-
Uff da this would be a nail biting inning if the game meant anything.
-
Pretty sad for a team in first place.
-
Unbelievably great play by Polanco, and only because the batter was Rajai Davis, the below average arm was the deciding factor.
-
Pressly looks Iocked in too. CBU scoreless after seven.
-
The only player in this team who can bunt is Centeno, so, not sure what Molitor or Twins fans were expecting there. Also, slider.
-
Here comes the Rosario blame... Not sure I agree with the pitching change.
-
I didn't care for the smiling either, but I'll file it as "whatever"
-
When the slider is nasty, the slider is nasty. The slider was nasty tonight. It's a shock we got one hit out of it.
-
Jeebus Centeno again.
-
Miller just throwing slider after slider to our lefties. No chance.
-
Stick it out. It pays off sometimes.
-
Note to self: Typing the phrase "Kipnis Webgem" autocorrects to "Mauer yard"
-
Calling it: Mauer yard
-
um, hate to know what the POBO stands for....
-
CBU (do we do those anymore?) Santiago strands lead off double, 0-0 tie heading to sixth
