I'd much rather see all those guys than another month of Julien, Gasper, Outman, and Clemens. Martin can stay, but he needs to find a seat on the bench.
Now, on the pitching side, I'm just gonna throw up my hands.
Or maybe just throw up.
I swear to God. When you have a bad team, brain farts and poor fundamentals are completely inexcusable and unforgivable.
Let's go, put a damn foot down. Martin and Outman (seems aptly named) need to be in a bus to St. Paul tonight. Not a flight, either, a damn bus.
Trying to find yet another way to lose in the most Twins way possible.
Heh... remember when Austin Martin was the gem of the Blue Jays trade for El Machina?
From the jump, this trade looks like another one of those. I'm certainly willing to give the kid time, and I'd love to be proved wrong, but I wouldn't hang hopes on replacing our probable future closer with yet another pedestrian left-handed OF.
Addendum: why is it the automatic ad that pops up here every time is Manny Margot hitting the only walk off pinch hit of his life? (For the Rays, of course! ) 🤔
Kinda thinking we may have exceeded our Brooks Quota.
But hey, silver lining! We keep chasing the Sox for the chance to draft the next Keoni Cavaco! 😃👍
Popped into the game in the middle of my night, and made a comment about the Bears being up by an early touchdown.
I forgot these are the Les Steckel days.... 😞
Hey, when I posted that photo, my text disappeared -- it said: How fitting that on a day when Gulfa Tonkin gets lit up, here I am right next to the actual Gulfa Tonkin! 😅
Hm. I honestly didn't remember the return for the Sheriff in the trade, so just checked in to see Enrique Jimenez homered in 3 straight games, including a grand salami.
Hm.
I can't help but think this is part of a cynical pohlad plan. Piss off the base, sell off the assets, attendance at Targét plummets.
Ladies and gentlemen, presenting your 2028 Raleigh-Durham Twins.
Sheesh, this team.
P*ss-poor pitching and hitting and fundamentals, and a mgr who puts them in defensive positions to lose. Sorry Royce Valencia, that ball was hit right at ya. But backed up to normal DP-depth it's an easy 5-4-3, and out of the inning.
Why did I even check in to this game? Going back to the rugby.
