    He'd have the third highest HR allowed rate at the AS Game HR Derby. He'd be good at that role.

    While I'm ****** off and in the mood for a good rant: The arrogance with which this front office and this manager pretend stolen bases don't matter really irritates me. We don't ever run, and we act like it doesn't matter anyone who wants to can run at will on us. We don't teach ask our pitchers to hold runners. We don't pitch out. Our weak armed catchers have one knee on the ground in SB situations because pitch framing. It'll get ignored because of the pen and the offense, but that entire 7th inning debacle today was made infinitely worse because we can't or won't defend against SBs. And it happens regularly. I'm tired of pretending analytics means you don't have to still play the game.

    Seriously? The "pitching pipeline" propaganda was cool I guess, but it's long past time to give that up.
  4. USAFChief
    Yeah I think I'd roll with Miranda at 3rd next year.

    I really wanted OF help at the deadline. It was obvious they were really short. I mentioned Robbie Grossman as a cheap option who takes good ABs and might get hot for a couple months. Atlanta got him for a couple Starbucks coupons and he's hitting 257/.386/.486 since. He's hit like Lin Manuel Miranda's cousin. Meanwhile we are using Tim Beckham. In a corner OF spot.

    Who started that rally? No ******* way I send Ryan out for the 7th. He was extremely lucky to get through the 6th. Just can't do **** like that in a pennant race.
  7. USAFChief
    Phew. That's enough for today from Ryan.
  8. USAFChief
    As a complementary piece, usually hitting 8th, fine. The problem with the Twins is there aren't the primary pieces for the middle of the lineup.
  9. USAFChief
    I think he's just joking. You know, hamming it up a little. ... I'll see myself out.
  10. USAFChief
    Kepler grounds out to the right side to end a scoring chance. Odd.
  11. USAFChief
    I didn't realize Texas had such a dominant pitching staff...
  12. USAFChief
    Hey, didn't you use to be Carlos Correa?
  13. USAFChief
    Somebody get Gladden off the stage.
  14. USAFChief
    You could try it the old fashioned way... listening to one of the 2 Mankato stations on the Twins radio network (AM 1420 or FM 102.7). You can purchase a portable AM/FM radio on Amazon for as little as $10. I doubt there is anyone in MN, or much of ND or SD, who can't listen to the Twins free. If there are, MLB radio is $20/yr, and you can stream Corey and Dan anywhere in the world where you have an internet connection. Edit: ninja'd

    Also, the offense is just...offensive. I can't even remember the last time Correa got a big hit.
  16. USAFChief
    Not sure how we lose a game in extras and Duran doesn't pitch.
  17. USAFChief
    I actually had the same thought with both Buxton in the 10th, and Sanchez after Urshela's double. Its difficult to take the bat out of Buxton's hands, but a K is just an inning killer. And who knows, Buxton might even beat it out.
  18. USAFChief
    I want someone in the media to ask Rocco how the **** we lose a 1 run game and Devin Smeltzer and Caleb Tbielbar give up runs while Duran never throws a pitch.
  19. USAFChief
    Just another dismal loss.
  20. USAFChief
    Really glad Jax managed to give up that 2nd run.
  21. USAFChief
    STOP SHOUTING!!
  22. USAFChief
    Helluva AB Buck.
  23. USAFChief
    Well that's a good start
  24. USAFChief
    Plus he's like 50 years old I don't think he's changing.
  25. USAFChief
    Say goodnight. I better learn Duran wasn't available.
