  1. If I understand how to read the data on FanGraphs, his UZR this year is -6.3. That seems bad...
  2. 100% agree, but it seems like Buxton has missed a number of deep plays that I would have expected him to make based on the reputation that precedes him. How is he rated by the defensive metrics?
  3. What happened on the triple by Galvis that Buxton didn't catch it? It doesn't seem like his defense is as good as was advertised. I don't remember a young Torii ever missing plays like that.
  4. Where will Rosario play? Grossman is playing well, Kepler is playing well enough to stay in the lineup. Do you send Buxton down?
  5. When Sano comes back from the DL the corresponding move should be Park to AAA. With Plouffe getting hurt there's now an opening at 3B for Sano. I certainly didn't want Plouffe to get hurt, but it now makes the Sano situation a little easier. How long till Sano is back??
  6. Nuñez has got to be frustrated. He tied the game in the bottom of the 8th, just to watch Jepsen blow it.
  7. At this point I hope the Twins lose every game possible the rest of this season so that they can lose at least 120 games. Maybe then Ryan & Molitor would get fired. I don't see any reason why the Twins should keep trying to win games. Bench Plouffe & Dozier once Polanco & Sano are healthy. Start Sano @ 3B, Polanco @ 2B, Kepler in RF and Nuñez at SS. Plouffe & Dozier should be either riding the pine or in AAA with the way they're playing so far. Park may also need to go to AAA.
  8. I hope Longoria hits another HR here. It would be fitting for how the season is going.
  9. Abad is warming now again, but he should be pitching already. It's too late. Jepsen already blew it.
  10. Why is Jepsen being allowed to face Longoria?!?!?
  11. Jepsen has already thrown 26 pitches this inning to get 1 out. Why is he allowed to continue?
  12. A walk to load the bases? Pull Jepsen now!!
  13. This ump has been giving the low strikes today against Beckham. Maybe he'll strike out again on a pitch below the knees. The ump must think Beckham's knees are down by his ankles.
  14. Twins have 11 LOB today, no wonder they're not winning. That is insane to have so many LOB.
  15. Hughes is warming in the bullpen? What!?
  16. What's wrong with the 3B coach that he wasn't watching the ball to know that Buxton could have scored?!?!?
  17. Twins have 5 LOB through 2 innings, that is a great illustration of their offensive incompetence.
  18. Dozier doesn't belong starting, much less batting 2nd. Time to bench him or send him to AAA. Polanco should be starting instead.
  19. Smyly struck out the side. Maybe the Twins will reach 10 strikeouts before the 7th inning... Escobar looked terrible in his AB.
  20. I find it amusing how optimistic Tony Oliva is... During the Spanish pre-game show he was saying that he's sure that the Twins will win today because Duffey is pitching & he's going to dominate. He also said that the offense will be better today because Escobar is back in the lineup. I hope he's right... Duffey looks good though 1 inning.
  21. This is a save situation now, right? Because the tying run is in the on-deck circle? Or am I remembering the rule wrong.
