  1. How about Clemens, Buxton & Jeffers... we'll see if Rocco plays "all-in" to get the win...
  2. Not for those 30 PA, loses too much $$$ in arbitration...
  3. Wallner. You run until/unless the ump signals foul.
  4. Agreed. Be that as it may, I don't think he scores there; he has to start from a dead stop (he's not fast, either) and Watkins is gonna play it conservative and hold him up.
  5. Wallner should have already been on third
  6. Wrong, that ball had a good chance to be caught
  7. Wrong, The ball hit by Jeffers had a very good chance of being caught, runner goes part way as there is no advance if he catches it. Quit being angry and use some sense every once in awhile, not every play is wrong. Martin was, however, wrong on the Lee line drive
  8. Funderstruck!! Funderburk with a clean inning...
  9. Fast like race horse, smart like tractor...
  10. More importantly what was Martin thinking on Lee's liner...
  11. Barger letting that drop for a single has the Twins right where the Blue Jays want them, bases loaded and nobody out...
  12. The floodgates have opened for "The Mick"...
  13. Maybe if you got on The Last Train to Clarksville you could...
  14. Not so sure of a sac bunt to move the runner over to get Outman to the plate with 2-outs.
  15. That PA by Keaschall is why we watch the team play the string out....nice battle and much improvement from his first PA of the game.
  16. He shouldn't be, he's only on round 2 of arbitration this winter...
  17. https://www.mlb.com/twins/news/mick-abel-expected-to-make-twins-debut Saints website still shows Abel starting tonight also....
  18. Since he broke the long 0-fer in early June, he is slashing .275/.332/.449 (.781 OPS) with 13 2B, 6 HR, & 30 RBI, not great, but over 162 games that's 40 2B, 19 HR, & 93 RBI. He appears to run hot/cold, like Buxton, disappearing for several games, then carrying the team for several. The most concerning part with him is the adjustment quote. Something's not working, so you work on it, and if the changes don't fix it, you go back to wasn't working in the first place. That's definition of insanity, I believe.
  19. Did you see how many times Castro got thrown out "being aggressive"? Or remember Miranda the few times he was on base? They were not aggressive because the players were totally lost on the bases, Watkins had no clue what to do in coaches box, and Correa and France were not moving more than one base at a time. Keaschall has injected some aggressiveness/speed into the team, Lewis seems to have his legs under him again, and the team in general now seems to be able to go first-to-third and second-to-home a little better, but this new found aggressiveness has also run them into outs (Lee against the Athletics was the latest example). I think the team is playing a little looser because the players have been able to settle into more defined roles.
