    Absolutely no excuse some of the calls by Diaz sending runners the last couple of days. Guys that have just been toast. They could have had the winning run at 3rd with 1 out. Instead that may have cost them the game and the lead in the division. He really needs to be removed from his role.
  2. sftwinsfan
    That's tough, missing some pitches right over the middle.
  3. sftwinsfan
    Cron's due here, seems like its been awhile since he got a big hit (being on the IL probably didn't help).
  4. sftwinsfan
    Wasn't real serious, Bremer on the tv broadcast was talking up a couple minor league veterans and comparing the guy they got from Seattle to the Royals Dyson I think during their World Series runs.
  5. sftwinsfan
    Nice to know there are a couple minor league free agents coming to save the season.

    Bad 3-0 call there, nice to see the poor umpiring is continuing in this game. Sick of all the balls called strikes in this series.
  7. sftwinsfan
    Solid trade, added a solid veteran and didn't give up any top prospects to get him. Jaylin Davis is having a big year, but wasn't a top prospect and was blocked at the MLB level. Prelander Berroa and Kai-Wei Teng are basically lotto tickets-good young arms but a long ways off.

    Doesn't sound like the Mets think they match up as well with the Twins as some other teams. Would still be possible to get a deal done, but I'm guessing it would start with one of Lewis/Kirilloff + one of Graterol/Balazovic + a 3rd piece maybe Jeffers/Enlow type level. For a team such as the Mets that seem to want to compete soon/prefer close to major league talent they may have to overpay since their prospects are a little further out.

    Time will tell on this trade, I don't mind Romo as a 2nd or 3rd piece to add to the bullpen. He brings a veteran presence that could help the bullpen and is hopefully an upgrade over Parker. I think people undervalue Diaz, he really only had the one bad year last year. He continued crushing the ball in AA and reportedly was above average on defense. He's hitting for average and power without striking out a ton. Twins could come to really regret this in a year or two with 1B and DH openings likely in 2021. On the other hand getting Villamont evens things up a bit and is an interesting arm and if he turns out this could be a win.

    Not even really sure how Stewart is on this team. He doesn't even pitch particularly well in the minor leagues. Is Latroy Hawkins maybe interested in a comeback?
  11. sftwinsfan
    Well, this is pathetic. I'm not going to bother watching the end of this inning, it's over. Really not looking fwd to how flat this team will be tomorrow after this. Calling a loss by at least 6 runs.
  12. sftwinsfan
    God! 3-1 count and he's swinging like he's in an 0-2 hole. If you don't get what you're looking for there you just have to let it go strike or not.
  13. sftwinsfan
    A little too eager there with the control this guy has shown. Up to Eddie now. I really would like to go to bed sometime soon.
  14. sftwinsfan
    Wow, was barely paying attention when he hit that HR, awesome! Had to check at first and yes there was a runner on! Have to work at 7am and don't want extra innings here.
  15. sftwinsfan
    Not like you couldn't see that coming. I know Harper has done well this year, but I just think the league is going to figure him out. I just want to close my eyes everytime he pitches, other than the curve he just doesn't have anything else. Would have left Duffy in. Probably wouldn't have mattered.
  16. sftwinsfan
    No excuse for Parker to still be in that game for the last at-bat. Was beyond clear right away he had nothing. Just leaves him out there for hitter after hitter.
  17. sftwinsfan
    The concussion history is worrisome, especially with his propensity to run into walls. They are a much better team with him out there both on offense and defense. Hopefully they can keep him on the field often enough to take advantage of his talents.
  18. sftwinsfan
    Glad they came back and got the W. I was this close to switching to Dish or Sling so I couldn't watch this stuff anymore.
  19. sftwinsfan
    They missed a golden opportunity to bury Cleveland today. I think a sweep on their home field coming out of the break and they would have folded not too long afterwards. Still a good series, but the fight for the division goes on. With all the talk of Berrios being an ace it would be nice if he pitched like one once in awhile. He's overall a solid starter, I just don't think he's reached the level so many people place him at.
  20. sftwinsfan
    At this point I have zero doubt Cleveland will catch this team at some point. Only question will be if the Twins can regroup and push them back down again when the time comes.
  21. sftwinsfan
    Oh my God! I don't know that I've ever seen anyone worse on pop-ups.
  22. sftwinsfan
    It's almost too bad Berrios got named to the All-Star team, he could use a few days off. He's not been sharp lately. The whole team could use a few days off to reset.
  23. sftwinsfan
    I hope it's not Allen already, but I'm sure it is unless they've got a trade agreed to. I'm sure they've fixed him after all of 2 innings in Fort Myers.
  24. sftwinsfan
    I'm going to have to pass. I see Brian Duensing is available and also 36
  25. sftwinsfan
    I think even Al Newman would have hit at least 15 this year if he were still playing. A game in Seattle comes to mind as I thought it was just crazy to see this little guy just barrel a ball with not even an aggressive swing and watch it sail out to dead center. Pretty much makes the rule book irrelevent, kind of like the NFL. Maybe deadening the ball along with banning the defensive shifts would result in more players going for the base hit over trying to launch it over the fence.
