good show, good show
-
Other teams were right to be concerned about his right ankle. It has become both feet and ankles now, that are affecting his play, and daily prep from what I’ve heard. He is a tough SOB and might have one more good season in him at some point.
-
A glass half full is 90% mental. (did i get that right?)
-
Paddack needs to give the Twins some innings. Bullpen needs a breather tonight, I am guessing.
-
and then—hear me out—play them at that same position in the majors!
-
Sounds like an early 60s pop band!

“One a them new-fangled 43 yard extra points, I betcha. Back in my day, the extra point meaned something.”

“Dad, why did Terry LeCount just spike that football after he scored the touchdown? doesn’t Bud Grant have a policy against that?” ”Well, kid,” said the dad, tussling the kid’s hair, “it’s because the world is going to hell in a handbasket, that’s why.” Note: Based on a true story

Thank you Byron!

I don’t think he has much trade value but I do think he is a good Twins contributor. There seems to have been a maturity bump, a year or two ago. Sometimes promoting a guy to the majors will give you that. SWR always takes his turn the past couple seasons, which I think is underrated. By chance, I heard a radio guy say sometime in the past month that SWR was laying on the clubhouse floor after on one his recent starts, either cramped up exhausted or dehydrated. Yikes. That would explain why Rocco doesn’t pitch him more than 5 innings. I don’t see the ace stuff or dominant bullpen potential though, no. Not every guy needs to be the future star.

Week in Review: Signs of Progress
Hosken Bombo Disco replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I hear you all. My thoughts go down bad paths often. If the Twins sweep the Rays this weekend, it may very well be ducks ‘n bunnies again for a few days. And, hey! Don’t we get to see the Cubbies and Crow-Armstrong next week!? Optimism is easier to read and live with, than pessimism. Let’s not make this too personal. Granted, Nick is a professional so open to fair criticisms. We have been hearing on TwinsDaily for several years, since 2022 at least, that the upcoming season was the “make or break” season… in my opinion, it’s been a little bit of makin’, but mostly a lot of breakin’, since then.. Personally, I think if this season ends the way the pessimists think it will, then I think there will have to be a different tone on this site. It would mean missing the playoffs in 4 of 5 years. Hard to put a shine on that. If the season ends the way the optimists hope it will, then… playoff baseball is not a bad thing, right? Chew on those pitching matchups, adjust your work schedules, and *cough*cough* like I do and figure out a way to sit your butt down for that Game 1 AL game at 12/3 PM that first Tuesday in October -
Correct - I don't think there is anyone as good as Correa at quickly setting himself to make an on target throw to first base. It's really a treat to watch, aside from all the other quibbles big and not so big.

Moderator note: Ok everyone. I think there was some discussion at one point, about making Caretaker articles available for comment for subscribers at one point? As it stands now, comments look to be open to everyone. No need to make it meta at the expense of the actual content.

Probably right
-
Solid 6 innings for Skubal, wonder who Detroit will send out for the 7th!
-
Buck actually made nice contact, just got under it. Might have been our best shot tonight.
-
Got there in only 11 batters!? That actually legitimately might be an MLB record.
-
Greene spends the entire at bat swinging for the fences, and finally on 3-2, Paddack obliges with whatever that was.
-
Whoever invented the phrase “hot knife through butter” must have had this Skubal vs the Twins matchup in mind.
-
Death, taxes, and a 20-pitch first inning for the Twins starter
-
We hear a lot of talk about “playing the young guys” and everything that entails. But that doesn’t happen until Correa is moved.
-
Steer is a solid everyday player. He started this season with shoulder issues but has been making up for lost time with 3 HR last night.
