    Ober struggles seemingly every AB.

    Pretty sporty there, Mr Festa.

    Winnah.

    They're still not in town.

    Whew...

    Lee has been hitting, to be sure, but man he is SLOW.
  8. USAFChief
    Hahahaha. Good one

    I attended 2 games this week and got a request from the Twins to complete a customer satisfaction survey. I completed the survey, but they didn't ask me about the baseball team. Plenty of questions about hot dogs and parking and time spent in lines. How did i get to the ballpark? Music too loud? Feel safe? Anything and everything except they asked nothing about the actual product.

    Yup. That's a case of a manager ignoring warning signs.
  12. USAFChief
    Play through the night?

    World Series was never off the table. They have one every year. No, no, it's true! Really. Every year. Two teams.

    It’s a miracle! Praise God Almighty, it’s a miracle!
  15. USAFChief
    Yes.
  16. USAFChief
    Pretty nice AB, Willi.
  17. USAFChief
    Nice turn.

    Geven recent trends I'd say Provus accurately described that routine fly ball by comparison.

    Those are career K leaders, not K's looking.

    "Twins fans don’t want to be told that what they’ve seen for five years is good enough. Because it’s not." Five years. Five. Which is why this isn't about just the most recent suckitude. Timing isn't the issue. It's that they continue to employ a poor manager whose teams can't and/or wont play the game of baseball. They're consistently poor at things within the manager's range of responsibilities, as partially touched on above. He should have been replaced no later than last year. He's an objectively bad MLB manager

    Let's get some runs!
  22. USAFChief
    Just too many white hot bats to cram them all into the lineup.

    Inconceivable. I've been assured young pitchers always struggle to establish themselves in the show for at least 3 years. 7 ERAs are the norm.

    Dear Mr Falvey Could you can the nauseating corporate gobbledegook and just talk like normal? 500 words and nobody can actually point to a single concrete statement. Sincerely Everyone, everywhere.

    Twins teams under TK were often undermanned. But they were rarely outplayed. He tried damn hard make sure of that. They threw to the proper base. Knew how to execute cutoff throws. Drop a bunt, and field one. Slow down opponent running games. When and how to gain a base on offense. Those things, and a million other baseball things mattered. He took steps to ensure them, and didn't easily tolerate it when they didn't happen. Those things seem to me a punchline now. At the least an afterthought. Baseball is a game. A team game. There's an art to playing it well, in addition to science. I'd like to see a manager who understands and appreciates that.
