  1. I'd say if I'm in charge the 3rd base coach would be fired. Get a catcher thrown out at home with nobody out? You've demonstrated you're not capable of the job. "No consequences" is how you end up with zero postseason wins going on 2 generations.
  2. In general, I agree. In this case, Archer not only got a shortened spring, he threw only 19 innings last year, didn't pitch in 2020, and only 120 innings in 2019. It's entirely reasonable to expect he'll need to ramp up. And as noted, if anything, he was left in a hitter or two too long last night. He was clearly laboring, noticably losing both velo and command.
  3. Concur on all points, including Rocco being a hitter or two late removing Archer. Personally I've been very encouraged by Archer's starts. He needs to develop durability and stamina, but he really should be finishing up spring training. Hopefully that stamina comes, the pitch quality is impressive, IYAM.
  4. I don't agree that they've constructed a solid pen. I do agree Duran is better used in 1 inning appearances, available for more games in more effective short stints.
  5. You really can't get a runner thrown out at home with no outs. The fact the top of the order was due up just adds to an already awful mistake. The leaky bullpen isn't a surprise to me.
  6. Seriously?? The article CLEARLY called for controversial opinions.
  7. I will also add you can't get a catcher thrown out at home with 0 outs, not to mention the top of the order coming up.
  8. Perhaps it won't be grandfathered if this game hasn't ended by then.
  9. Can really run down balls in the outfield, too, but no arm whatsoever.
  10. This Ben Nintendo guy is another Twins killer.
  11. Nobody post the Wild score. Recorded and will watch later.
  12. Threw a nasty breaking (ball) bad to Larnach.
  13. Looks like last year's version to me. Totally unwarranted speculation: Duffey looks to me like someone who was possibly benefiting from grip enhancers. Velo and "ride" down, breaking ball rolling...
  14. Low mileage on the right arm, too.
  15. That gets us through the 6th. Who gets the 7th?
  16. PH RH hitting Garlick for LH hitting Gordon vs LH reliever
  17. Geez, always with the sarcasm from this one.
