    Meh, I thought the umpires did a good job yesterday. It was a tight strike zone, but they were consistent on both sides from what I could tell. Severino had his fair share of close calls that didn't go his way either.

    I was already going berserk. Pretty sure my neighbors think I'm insane after hearing me roar in approval, followed by utter despair in a matter of 30 minutes.

    Here's the list of SP free agents (not including potential opt-outs like Tanaka, Cueto, etc.) Who would you spend some real money on?
  4. Vanimal46
    Thanks for putting together this list. The package you're talking about Gordon + Romero/Gonsalves + 2 top 20 prospects sounds like a good starting point for negotiations. Out of the list, this would be my list of most appealing trade targets: Stroman DeGrom Cole Nola Gausman The odds of San Francisco trading Bumgarner is less than 0%.

    Hmm, I'm surprised by the poll results so far on Seth's twitter.

    The highlighted question is my guess as to what's going to happen. In the next couple of days after raw emotions of the game wear off, they'll probably meet with Molitor and discuss his future.
  7. Vanimal46
    I'm guessing Molitor is gone, and that was the plan all along unless the team went on a miracle WS run. Don't have any idea who it will be. The top priority is finding a pitcher better than Ervin to anchor the rotation. Berrios may develop and be better than Ervin next season. If so, great! Find one more, and Ervin could be a sneaky good #3. FA doesn't appear to be the best route, as I'm not a believer in Arrieta. Nor do I think it's realistic Ohtani, Tanaka, or Darvish signs with Minnesota. Trade from the surplus of middle IF prospects to get a legit SP. A shut down reliever (or two) is also needed.

    And, in fairness, same with Dozier's leadoff HR in the 1st. All were classic Mauer wall-scrapers from the Metrodome days.
  9. Vanimal46
    I've posted this before that any playoff experience is good for this team. Now the young players have a taste of what postseason is like. I understand Molitor not wanting to get into a bullpen game against the Yankees. You're going to lose that battle 10 times out of 10. However, Erv didn't have it from the get-go. It was a bold decision to keep Ervin in the 2nd inning, and the wrong decision to make. I would have sat him down for Berrios after the 1st inning and try to reset the team after that roller coaster 1st inning.

    Signing off for the night. Hope there's one more comeback left in this team.
  11. Vanimal46
    Hillenberger throwing 95.... LOL.
  12. Vanimal46
    Hat trick. Oh boy.
  13. Vanimal46
    Pinch hit... please.
  14. Vanimal46
    Pinch hit for Castro... They need a spark here.
  15. Vanimal46
    No doubt.. Both of those barely cleared the wall too.
  16. Vanimal46
    A sandbox.
  17. Vanimal46
    Yes. The Twins can't compete in a bullpen game with the Yanks.
  18. Vanimal46
    There we go... I'm already emotionally drained.
  19. Vanimal46
    Man, this is going to be a loooong night.
  20. Vanimal46
    Molitor F'd up... Erv never had it this game.
  21. Vanimal46
    Definitely in the last 48 hours...
  22. Vanimal46
    Oh, typical Buxton catch? Weird.
  23. Vanimal46
    Alright Molly, first big decision of your postseason career made.... Erv is staying in the game.
  24. Vanimal46
    I hope Berrios has ice in his veins. They need 5-6 shutdown innings from him.
  25. Vanimal46
    Hello darkness my old friend....
