    Im’a let you in on a secret, just between you and me,, you are actually quite awesome
  2. Hosken Bombo Disco
    And that awkward half-stride, my friends, is why some baseball players dive headfirst into first base. Better that Royce shortened his stride than lengthened it

    Let’s ask someone smart
  4. Hosken Bombo Disco
    The answer the judges were looking for was “Yes”, but will accept “Probably”
  5. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Is that an observation on the game situation, or a follow up on Chief’s joke? 🙂
  6. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Yeah Target field would be fuller than this

    Are you talking about the short foul pop up that Polanco hit that landed on the dirt in front of the third base dugout that Encarnacion-Strand couldn’t get to because he was shifted way over at the shortstop position?
  8. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I would like to see Paddack then get two more starts in the majors with the Twins, so that he can have that “all the way back” feeling heading into 2024.
  9. Hosken Bombo Disco
    What about people on this website who thought he should rest or go on the IL as soon as symptoms appeared or it was diagnosed?
  10. Hosken Bombo Disco
    well he reaggravated it in the game tonight, so it’s a brand new question now.
  11. Hosken Bombo Disco
    You are right - not too great
  12. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Arraez’s OPS is currently back up to .864 while Julien’s OPS stands at .843, and that’s primarily against right handed pitchers and the favorable platoon split, since Julien is mostly being protected from a disadvantageous platoon weakness. Your take on Steer is also strange to me. It looks like Steer can hit. Whatever. There was no drop off like Rooker had. Look, it’s ok to be a homer on this site, but it’s really hard to have a discussion with someone if they are just making up numbers and interpretations!

    I don’t think Cinci has the horses to finish ahead in the wild card chase. But they must be thrilled at how far they have progressed. I think they were universally predicted to finish last or second to last in their division. Eddie de la Cruz is one of those transformational talents.

    You are a frequent contributor here - thank you. I have to confess, however, that I have no idea where you are getting your data. Looks like Steer had a deep slump in July, otherwise he has been consistently really good, including August and September. It will be fun to watch him tonight.

    Yeah I have always felt this way too about Royce. Two huge injuries and the guy never wavered. For this pick, thank Mike Radcliffe, and the new front office for deferring to Radcliffe’s judgment.

    Thank you for bringing in another voice from the other side, Ted.

    My original point is that the team did not even announce it. Nothing conspiratorial about it. It’s not a good look. Anyway, my thumbs are tired and I have actual **** to do. See you in the game threads, wsnydes.

    Rocco the Shrinking Violet? 🙂
  22. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Ok gotcha. I should have said press release not press conference. The money and terms are irrelevant. No team (no decent team) would pass up a chance to announce their good manager had been extended. It just wouldn’t happen. I did a quick google check of Francona and Roberts and they got press when they were extended.
  23. Hosken Bombo Disco
    Rocco honestly seems like a great guy. However, the Twins PR people didn’t even want to have a press conference to announce that he had been extended. Instead, it was a leak. Even Gardy had press conferences.
  24. Hosken Bombo Disco
    I really have no opinion on what the front office did or did not do at the trade deadline. My take on the deadline was: I have no idea who the front office is supposed to trade for, and it seems like they don't know either. I'll stand by that. However, a poster upthread did mention some names of relievers who have done pretty well for their new teams, actually. Chris Stratton from the Cardinals? Doing pretty good and heck the Twins were in St. Louie over the deadline. Just switch clubhouses, wouldn't even need to book flights! It's not true to say things like 'no one traded at the deadline is working out.' But people will say it anyway and on it goes. This is the postseason bullpen you had in mind, when the Twins were holding pat at the trade deadline on August 1st? Interesting indeed 🙂

    Thanks for posting that. Suprised by 2021 - yikes I think the point is that Lopez and Gray (and Duran) are the best available pitchers on this team. So when someone say "let the starters pitch deep" it generally means Lopez and Gray. The Twins probably won't get very far if Lopez and Gray don't turn in some quality starts.
