    Just to follow up on this... As of this morning, no Twin has played in 140 games (Polanco leads with 139, Kepler is next with 131.) There are 38 players in MLB with 140 or more games played. If we were to take that to 130 games, there are dozens more. And that ignores players like Lindor, who play every day, but who missed time due to the IL.

    What's false? They're temporarily down several players, but have enjoyed relative health through the season. They certainly haven't endured what Cleveland did. Nor the Yankees. And it's September, so there's no shortage of replacements available, it's just that the replacements aren't realistically capable of filling a spot on a team contending. The lineup last night was no better than a bottom feeder team...and that's at least partially the fault of the front office. As for the deadline, I called it the exact same thing at the time. They did the absolute minimum required. They banked on the starting rotation staying intact, and the lack of depth not to be a problem. So it's tough for me to give them a great deal of credit.

    Technically, he was the Designated Non-Hitter.
  4. USAFChief
    When they've accomplished something, i'll trip over myself to give them credit.

    They haven't suffered more injury than other teams. When your backup plan is Lamont Wade, Ryan Lamarre, et al, it's on you. For one thing, they did the absolute minimum possible at the deadline. 2 relievers. No starter, no position help. They banked on health, and continued record setting offensive performance.

    Yu Darvish K'd 14 in 6 innings of 2 hit, shutout ball last night for the Cubs.

    Are we sure Falvine didn't call Tyner, and he turned them down?
  8. USAFChief
    It was obvious early that Gibson had zero command. Zero. Multiple pitches nowhere close, and way too many pitches left in the middle. I dont understand leaving him in to give up runs 3 4 and 5. Thay have about 299 relievers currently.

    Good night all. If Rocco gives up on a game, I guess I can too.
  10. USAFChief
    Virally. Even through a TV.
  11. USAFChief
    We cannot leave Cleveland in second place.
  12. USAFChief
    Stewart got to first, finally, on his way off the field after the third out.
  13. USAFChief
    Arraez, Garver and Rosario, out of the game. More rest.
  14. USAFChief
    The scouting report from LaMarre's 2 weeks of fame from spring 2018 was available to the Nats, apparently. 8 hopper to the right side.
  15. USAFChief
    Show em tape of tonight's game. Highlight the lineup.
  16. USAFChief
    Or have a fit over trading a minor leaguer for a major leaguer.
  17. USAFChief
    The sky is officially falling.
  18. USAFChief
    With less than 20 games left the Minnesota Twins have a 97% probability of winning the AL Central and a 99.4% probability of making the postseason. heh.
  19. USAFChief
    How do we get the fourth run?
  20. USAFChief
    Relax. With that 2 run rocket to left from Rendon, Fangraphs up'd the Twins chances of winning the ALC to 103 percent.
  21. USAFChief
    Yeah, I don't like it either. I might even use a more colorful adjective to describe it.
  22. USAFChief
    Right. You're thinking alike. ... HAHAHAHAHAHAH I kill me.
  23. USAFChief
    There's at least a chance, if Gibson doesn't come out for the 3rd, that this game is tied. And Gibson shouldn't have come out for the 3rd.
  24. USAFChief
    GONE...off the wall.
  25. USAFChief
    i don't think Garver's a realistic option at 1st, which is why I don't think we see him there.
