    That wasn't a strike. These umps.
  2. howeda7
    Such inept at bats. He's not even breaking a sweat.
  3. howeda7
    Ending the most embarrassing streak in sports history counts for something. But now it gives this regime at least two more years and we aren't winning anything more than this as long as they're in charge. So it's kind of a steep price to pay.

    Why didn't Dusty pull his starter after two? He gave up a HR and a double! The spreadsheet said....
  5. howeda7
    I'm not sure how to answer a theoretical. Routinely managing games this way is asking for it to blow up in your face. If you use 6 relievers on purpose, chances are one of them is going to have an off night. Managing a play-off game totally different than the other 162 is foolish. Short leash is one thing, this is another. Didn't work for the Blue Jays, didn't work tonight. And if it somehow does, the exhausted pen will probably bite them in game 5.

    Only if the front office is fired too (which they should be but won't be). Rocco is doing what he was told.
  7. howeda7
    The Twins will never win it all under this regime. Tonight is a clear example of why.
  8. howeda7
    And this was the problem with this pitching plan. Game over.
  9. howeda7
    Alvarez crushes lefties. But the spreadsheet said...
  10. howeda7
    This ends with Pagan having to go 2 innings protecting a one run lead. I don't need to tell you the outcome...
  11. howeda7
    This also hurts your chances in game 5. I know there's an off day, but your bullpen is still going to be gassed.
  12. howeda7
    Because this was Rocco's plan all along. Hate it.
  13. howeda7
    Dumb to go to the bullpen this early. If any one of 6 guys doesn't have it, you lose.
  14. howeda7
    He had a ringing double in game 3.
  15. howeda7
    He didn't screw up really. The Minnesota Sports Gods were at work. Royce is immune to them.

    Intentional walk....
  18. howeda7
    Ryan is throwing strikes. Good.
  19. howeda7
    I don't expect anyone but Solano to play 1B. Farmer would go there before Julien IMO. But you could also DH Royce and put Farmer at 3B and Julien at 1B. If we advance, I fear Joey Gallo will be on the ALCS roster.
  20. howeda7
    No. But Kiriloff is now ineligible for the rest of the post season.
  21. howeda7
    Much rather give Trey Mancini a shot than this guy...
  22. howeda7
    Firing only Levine while Falvey stays would be a joke. This is Falvey's team and he's the one whose head should role. Whether Levine stays or not is a separate discussion but a complete housecleaning is in order IMO.
  23. howeda7
    This team isn't going anywhere, so this isn't the worst thing Falvey has done. But it does reinforce that he should be fired after the season. He's had seven years. He's failed. Enough already.
  24. howeda7
    There is a point regarding it not being just Gray vs Keuchel. I don't really see this coming down to winning the division by 1 game. Either we will get our %%^^ together and win it by 4 + or we'll collapse again and lose it by that much IMO. So I don't think trading Gray flips our chances of making the play-offs much. But he would be one of our 4 play-off starters, so there is the downgrade from say Ober to Maeda in game 4 of a play-off to consider, even if you feel that Gray/Ryan/Ober/Lopez are all pretty even.
  25. howeda7
    Potentially it is. If we continue to get the Gray from July, it might be a push. I'm not a fan of trading Gray as I don't think the haul will be that massive. But I hate to lose Kuechel for nothing and see him go 5-0 with a 3.00 ERA somewhere else too.
