  1. I can't stand how easy it is for teams to run on us
  2. Gotta be smarter than that. Look him back, get the out at 1st.
  3. Bones McCoy: that toe is infected bad, Jim. I'm going to have to amputate. Kirk: can you transplant another one? Bones: all I have are breath mints Jim. I can, but it'll be a... tic tac toe.
  4. He has looked decent. It wasn't the babip that got him. It was the leadoff walk followed by a WP advance to second.
  5. Or a 1 out bloop single to right in the 3rd. Pretty much the same thing.
  6. And nice job TwerkTwonkTwins! Another great game thread intro.
  7. Feels like we need runs today to have a chance. 13 should suffice. Let's start by getting 7 or 8 in the 1st. Maybe a Jeffers 3 run jack to cap off bottom 1. That's all I ask.
  8. As currently constructed I'm still thinking fringe contenders. Less than 90 wins, which might win ALC. Add to the top of the rotation and add legit option(s) to pen, I'll up that.
  9. The latest waiver wire replacement part. Woof.
  10. Right, so Why a scheduled day off? He'd only played 3 days. One at DH. Some sort of injury? OK. Covid fatigue? Maybe, I guess, but that seems unlikely, and that's not what Baldelli implied. But a previously scheduled day off? Which would have had to have been scheduled much earlier? They're not setting up a new schedule that has him resting after 3 days. So again...seems odd.
  11. The actual question is: why would Correa need a day off? He'd only played 3 games, one of which was at DH. Baldelli's quote made it sound like it was a scheduled day off. You can't change a schedule? A schedule made long ago?
  12. I couldn't disagree more. Gordon shouldn't be at SS, except in emergencies. He's not a MLB SS. He's not the worst utility player in MLB, and he's gonna be here through 2022, but I hope the Twins look to upgrade in the future. He does a lot of things...below average to way below average.
  13. Yeah, but... Arraez has 8 XBH's this season. 8. Today's slam notwithstanding, I think it's fair to say he has little to no power. That lifetime .386 OBP is starting to appear legit to me though. And the current .446 is positively dreamy.
  14. I don't know how long Luis Arraez can keep this up, but it's pretty darn amazing. I will readily admit I wasn't a big fan due to the lack of power. I thought it'd catch up to him, he'd stop drawing walks, and it'd be tough to have any value. I hope to continue being way wrong. He's just hard to keep off 1st base.
  15. Pagan with command has the look of someone who can help. Let's keep that please. kthanks.
  16. If Duran goes 1-2-3, he faces 5, 6, 7. Pagan would have had 8,9 1. Or maybe Duran throws an easy 8th and can go 2. Plus there's always the chance the Twins add on bottom 8. I don't have an issue with it.
  17. Not to toot own horn oh heck who am i kidding Own horn is tooted.
  18. If there was ever a time for a sac bunt, Jeffers' AB was it. Massive GIDP candidate, top of the order due up. 1 run lead. 8th inning.
  19. Jeffers isn't on my favorits list these days.
