  1. Took Mrs Chief to a horse racing track this afternoon. Thought it'd be fun. I picked this horse to win right at post time, she went off at 10 to 1. Nag finally finished at quarter to 3.
  2. Were i interested in maximizing my chances of trading France, I'd be inclined to keep him far, far away from the lineup.
  3. Yeah, but negative 69. TF does that work?
  4. If I accept the claim that 1 in 900 pitches results in an infield chopper--which I don't--explain how this is important.
  5. They didnt add a catcher at AAA. They swapped out Camargo for Pareda. I guess it's possible they expect Camargo to clear waivers and sign back with St Paul, off the 40 man. That would add a catcher.
  6. I dont understand trading only 1 of Jax/Duran. If you're trying to compete in 2026, deal neither. If not, deal both. Dealing only 1 is just more half-assing it. Serves neither goal. Id say both, as i dont see this team competitive in 2026. But either way, pick a lane.
  7. The constant whining about umpiring is childish and frankly, embarrassing. Makes the thread more than I can stand. Good night all.
  8. None of what happened is the home plate umpires fault. None. Zip. Zilch
  9. Way to go Buck! That said, the absolute ease with which opposing pitchers can retire Twins hitters without throwing strikes is one of the fundamental weaknesses of this offense.
  10. Larnach sleeping on 2nd and then jogging to 3rd on the base hit. Rocco? Any thoughts?? Should a MLB manager maybe ask for more from his team?
  11. Nah, we're good. Send out the Sherriff. -Baldelli
  12. How TF does Larnach not score from 2nd on a ground ball single to right? Good god this team is bad at baseball.
  13. Ryan should have started Friday and gotten a start in both series.
  14. If only trading Coulombe now wouldn't prevent us from bringing him back next year. Oh well, nothing can be done. Such a shame the Twins aren't allowed to sign free agents.
  15. And, as noted in the OP, the team is under .500 since 2021. This isn't bad luck. 2019 was neat but it's a long time ago.
  16. His footwork in the box is about as bad as you'll ever see. Been that way since the 2nd half last year. Off balance, all arms, no base, feet moving all over as he swings
  17. Why would the Twins, desperately clinging to fading postseason hopes, wait until Sunday to pitch their best starter? He didnt "pitch Tuesday." He last pitched Friday the 11th (only going 5 innings, BTW). One inning Tuesday at the AS game is nothing more than a normal between starts bullpen. He does a bullpen between starts normally, as does most every starter. There's no good reason he didn't start the 1st game of this trip--on long rest--and be the one starter getting 2 starts on this road trip. Instead, for some silly reason, its Paddack. Self inflicted pain. Someone-coughRoccocough-should be fired over stupid **** like this.
  18. World: "The Rockies have not won a home series THIS SEASON!" Twins: "Hold my beer."
  19. 6. Wear a plain brown paper bag over your head.
  20. I'm rather dumbfounded that anyone could look at this team and see "playoffs," much less a team capable of actually advancing once they got there. Sell all expiring contracts. Consider selling anything else that nets a big overpay. Including Ryan. And for petesakes get a new manager already. Geez.
