    And if he must play, where does he bat in the lineup? Following the premise that he must play to get out of the slump, then bat him first so he will get more at bats and get out of the slump more quickly. Nope, that is just ridiculous. The best scenario may be an injury which requires a minor league rehab, where he can work on his timing and not cost the Twins games. Sano reminds me of the old definition of a man being in an average temperature when he has one leg in a 35 degree bucket of ice and the other leg in a 125 degree bucket of hot water. It averages out to be 80 degrees, but is very uncomfortable.

    A lefty, Jim Ignatowski, has just been signed by the Twins as a relief pitcher and added to the taxi squad.. He had been pitching in an independent league in NYC, according to his agent,, Louie DePalma. However a later report stated that the signing had been delayed, pending a drug screen.

    Good assessment Doc.
  6. tarheeltwinsfan
    I am making a conscious effort to have no lasting impressions of these two games.

    Turning off the game after seeing the Dodgers players laughing and joking in the dugout in the 7th inning.

    Looks like men against boys today.

    It is still throw the ball, hit the ball, catch the ball.
  10. tarheeltwinsfan
    Exactly this

    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

    Rats.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree.
  14. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree with your assessment and your proposed solution.

    I would hate to see Arraez go to another team. But with Lewis and Miranda on their way up sometime soon, something needs to change, I contend that Arraez should DH enough to get 500 at bats a season. Would you rather Arraez get 500 bats at DH or would you rather the 500 at bats at DH be 250 to Sanchez and 150 to Sano and 50 to Jeffers and 50 to Gio? Trade Sanchez and Sano at the trading deadline for a "defense first" catcher who bats lefthanded and more young flame throwers.

    Nice post.

    Congratulations to all the winners. Well-deserved my fellow posters. You, above all others, are most worthy. While I do realize I am not worthy, it does hurt, not being at least mentioned in passing, for the heart and soul which I put into my posts.
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree with your astute assessments.

    That relay from Kirilloff to Correa to Sanchez was beautiful. Then Dick and Justin replayed it several times and explained why the throw to Correa was on the glove side of Correa and how all 3 players involved, had set themselves up for success by Kirilloff's footwork, Correa glancing back at the runner and his footwork and Sanchez placing his legs in front of the plate, thus blocking the runner, and catching and holding the ball. Morneau said it takes a good first relay throw to make the second relay throw successful. It was a beautiful play which was explained to us viewers in an excellent manner.

    Excellent article Ted. Thank you. I look forward to watching the film.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree. Now let's win our first game today (Sunday).
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    I guess Martin and Lewis both need to play everyday at SS to see what each can do at that position.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    A good team can be created out of these former Twins' players.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    Manaea pitched 7 innings of no-hit ball today. Rogers pitched 1 inning yesterday, no hits and got the save.
  25. tarheeltwinsfan
    That is funny.
