  1. Someone tell me why Martin is in this game.
  2. Every player in baseball gets doubled off there.
  3. HOW THE **** does Martin fail to score on a hit to medium deep center field??? Just bah-ruh-tull. Incomprehensible.
  4. Uffda. Great start, Simeon. Edit: and getting better. Three zip.
  5. I mostly agree. And I've never said they shouldn't have dealt Polanco. What I have said from the day the trade was announced was, "terrible trade. Made the Twins worse." And it did.
  6. Pretty clear what Correa was saying. "Some of us were out here taking BP. Some weren't." That's a shot at some teammates, and a direct shot at Rocco.
  7. You mean the guy Rocco turned to with a 2 run lead in a game they desperately needed? That guy??
  8. Polanco has stunk. Pretty badly. 654 OPS. The Twins have gotten a 644 OPS from 2nd base this year.
  9. Roulette is entirely random luck. There is zero skill, strategy or plan to be followed. MLB baseball is miles from that. Many, many miles.
  10. Not THE problem doesn't equal not A problem. I don't see the Pohlads firing themselves, so asking for that while ignoring other problems seems foolhardy.
  11. We get it. When you've tied yourself to the position "managers don't matter in MLB, youve painted yourself into a corner of "Nothing is ever the manager's fault. Ever." By definition, it CAN'T be. The guy responsible for writing the everyday lineup. The guy who makes every single pitching decision for 162 games. The guy who watches Jorge Alcala turn a 4-0 lead into a 5-4 deficit. "Nothing he could do." The guy who hasn't had the same lineup in back to back games in 6 years. Wow, can't believe nobody can maintain anything. Maybe pull back from focusing on Manny Margot in one game, and take a larger look at the manager for once.
  12. Not as much as Margot lowered his.
  13. I don't understand defending a decision that you yourself agree isn't a good one. Margot shouldn't be in ANY lineup, anywhere. Putting him at leadoff is the worst possible place for someone who shouldn't even be batting 9th. The lineup is certainly struggling. Yeah. Everyone agrees. Decisions like this don't help. There might be some level of correlation.
  14. "...Kyle Farmer hit into an inning ending double play. It's funny, but Farmer is kind of who you wanted to see in that situation..." You might have wanted Kyle Farmer. Not me. "Recent hot hitting" notwithstanding. I can do without Manny Margot too.
  15. I want some early runs tonight, dammit!!
  16. Dozens in Target Field tonight. You reap what you sow, Mr Pohlad Edit: Ninja'd
  17. I did not. Did anyone? That seems like more of a prosecution argument than any kind of defense.
  18. There was a pretty young lass from Nantucket Who slipped and said .... N/M Wrong thread.
  19. Fall portends winter Baseball delays that slightly Don't blow it Rocco
  20. Miami's in town For a crucial 3 gamer Some RBI's please
  21. Well, yeah. Better players would be good. That has ZERO relation to the question of whether the players they DO have are well managed. "I'm not going to fix my broken leg because I have two broken arms" is a poor way of improving your health. "I'm not going to worry about the manager because Carl Pohlad won't buy us Juan Soto and Shohei Ohtani" is a poor method of improving your team's results.
