  1. Why do batters always look back to the pitchers after they make an out? It’s the damn pitcher’s fault?
  2. I don’t get it. Is Garver that horrible a receiver that he can’t beat out a guy hitting .125?
  3. Nice article, Ted. My hope is that Falvine doesn’t bring up Buxton and Sano until they figure out AAA and A respectively. Both seem to be striking out with the same frequency they did in the majors. It’s tough to watch the losing, but if the FO shows that it is dedicated to finding players for 2019 and beyond, I can handle the losses piling up.
  4. I f-Ing hate walks. Throw it down the middle, and if they crush it, hats off to the hitter. Kinda like Gibson did after getting a 5-1 lead. Almost walked the first hitter, but grooved one and the batter hit one out. Have no problem with that!
  5. I bet Molly’s playing Wilson because Wilson needs a few more days at the ML level to be vested.
  6. Day game after night game, it’s almost an unwritten rule you catch someone else the next day. I can understand cuz we don’t have anyone else available...........
  7. Tried watching the game on FB. Pop ups, ads, delays-terrible. I see Odorizzi over 30 pitches in first inning- what else is new
  8. You’ll be happy to know that Molly said he is going back to Rochester tomorrow and they are bringing up another reliever. That is beyond disappointing! The kid has a bad outing and they’re making a scapegoat out of him? Didn’t think the Minnesota Twins organization acted like that! Not a good sign for future call-ups!
  9. Hey, relax! Can’t believe you think that. I think the kid is trying, but like Molly just said, he put him in a bad situation. This is a game with a lot of failing- better get used to it.
  10. it’s kinda like asking me to make a 10 footer on the 72nd hole to win the Masters, Yeah, there is a chance I’ll make it, but, .............. probably not!
  11. Molly used all his pitchers to get to the 9th for Rodney, and that didn’t work. I’m more disappointed they didn’t have better options in the 10th. Littell was going to be used in long relief. As Tom Kelly would say, “ didn’t put him in a situation where he could succeed” Littel has been a starter all year, and he pitches the 10th as a reliever. What can you do?
  12. I’ve heard he possesses some kind of pictures............... Can’t really complain about the moves. Would have preferred Duffy over Belisle.
  13. I forget-who won those games? It’s a little easier to perform when you are 8 runs down with no pressure.I remember the guys had a bases loaded situation in the first, and a chance to get to Lester early. I like the fact that they battled back, too. In the end, they lost, like yesterday, and the day before. The reason that I participate in these TD forums is that I really love Minnesota Twins Baseball, and it’s possible I take these losses harder than some players. I worry that it gets to be a job for them (which it is) instead of a game that it was meant to be!
  14. I really doubt he gets claimed. Really? A guy that Molitor doesn’t like? Getting claimed? I don’t think so.
  15. Polanco not on 40 man. Who do they DFA ? Also, I would think they’d send down Magill, and bring up Duffy.
  16. I think a lot of us are disillusioned. Not so much about the losing, but the fact that losing doesn’t seen to bother the players, coaches, and/ or management. When the “piranha” group was leading the Twins, their talent level was not the greatest, but they would battle you tooth and nail. These guys don’t appear to have that determination.
  17. This team has been a mess. Something tangible is missing with these guys. Polanco will most certainly be in the lineup tomorrow, but what other moves need to be made, especially with the pitching?
  18. It’s going to be 5 and fly for Lester
  19. I can almost garentee a position player will be pitching for the Twins today......
  20. I think many of the posters do not realize how potentially life threatening this was. I have battled several heat stroke scenarios, and the symptoms alone are frightening! I was aware of past experiences, hydrated extremely diligently before going outside, and still had symptoms. These young athletes, with trainers available, certainly prepared for the possibility of dehydration, before and during the game. With 4 players having obvious problems, I hope Major League Baseball looks at ways to prevent this from happening more often. It was difficult for me to watch this game. Today it WASN’T for the crappy performance by the Twins, as has been the case for much of this year!
  21. I continued to watch the tv debacle of the Twins telecast, waiting to hear what the manager would say. Postgame dudes on FSN kept saying, “stay turned for Molitor’s postgame comments.” For at least half an hour. Finally, it became, “ tune in tomorrow to hear the manager’s thoughts.” ( sorry- obviously paraphrasing) So, what’s up with him?
  22. Bet you didn’t do any running or sliding!
  23. I’m embarrassed by this exhibition of terrible baseball......
