    Today's plate umpire is really in sync with the electronic strike zone. I've seen about 5 pitches right around the knees on the (RH) outside corner, and he's gotten every one correct whether it's just on the plate or just off.

    Sometimes lucky is a better outcome than good!

    I'm liking Tim Laudner in the booth. He's kind of like Morris, but with a little less edge.

    Wade, in the team today.
  5. PDX Twin
    Max seems to Keple really well.

    Isn't this one in Minnesota? There are probably a few ticket holders having a panic attack right now after reading your title.

    I don't think anything in my cellar will be good as age --> 40, but then I probably won't be around to find out...

    At least Cruz won't have to steal second this time.
  9. PDX Twin
    Buxton would have caught that one. Oh wait ...

    The last couple of weeks the Twins have been about what most of us thought they would be before the season: Solid but inconsistent. Most forecasters had us at ~85-90 wins, not 95-100, and that's consistent with what's been happening. It seems that we were deluding ourselves if we thought that the team could keep winning two out of three. But the great start gives us a cushion to challenge to win the division, rather than just squeezing into a wild card spot, if we can play at the expected, solid, pace for the rest of the season.

    Just to rain on the 4th of July parade: Wahoos get 21 hits ... and Kirilloff is 0-for-4. Including the DSL, the Twins' affiliates' run differential on the day is -24.

    Maybe it means that he *is* working on his swing and is still not quite comfortable with the changes.

    Not at Wembley, I think. It's at West Ham's London Stadium from the Olympics.
  14. PDX Twin
    Only in this country. I can't bring myself to call it that any more...

    Your point about all the teams not trying to win is a great argument for a relegation system as in football. In Europe, the teams at the *bottom* of the table are trying desperately to win every game possible to avoid relegation. Makes life much more interesting for everyone except the "comfortable mid-table" teams who have little to gain or lose from moving up or down a few places. It's probably impossible to re-build the minor league system, so I'd set up the 30 major-league teams in three divisions, with relegation and promotion of 2-3 teams between divisions at the end of every season. The playoffs/World Series would be the top 5 teams from Division 1 (out of 10), the top 2 from Division 2, and the top 1 team from Division 3, seeded in that order.

    What planet was our thirdbaseman thinking about?
  17. PDX Twin
    Don't they say that good bitching beats good hitting?
  18. PDX Twin
    That's a good start...
  19. PDX Twin
    No water hazard in left field on this course?

    I rarely defend Sano, but his principal play was on the runner coming back from home, not the guy coming from second. He was several feet on the home plate side of the base and had to retreat quickly (something that does not come easily to him).
  21. PDX Twin
    Wow. Gotta love that shift. NOT
  22. PDX Twin
    Looks like the "Go 100% and get this turned around" pep-talk either (1) didn't happen or (2) didn't work.
  23. PDX Twin
    How is it that a team in a red state runs on Soler power?
  24. PDX Twin
    At least we made Sparky throw some pitches that inning.
  25. PDX Twin
    He's pretending to be Buxton because he knows that we all miss him.
