    This is finally the pitching staff able to break the streak. That's a big deal. 20 years since a playoff win(?) Hang onto 1st and win a playoff game at all (reasonable) costs - keep Gray and add a bat.

    Getting a start is different than setting up a 6 man rotation. Start him out of th AS break against Oakland to give everyone an extra day. He does well, then maybe fit in another start, meanwhile see if we figured out how to hit.

    Was going to say the same - what are chances Steer would be struggling with the mistake hunting Twins approach
  4. lukeduke1980
    Looks like they followed marching orders and swung at the mistakes.

    With a team that didn't hit well last year, Arraez was swapped out for Gallo. Not really surprising results.
  6. lukeduke1980
    Attendance was solid over the Detroit series so I'm assuming changes are minimal as long it people show up and 1st place is within reach

    Correa's foot must be doing okay so that's good news
  8. lukeduke1980
    The offensive woes remind me of 2006 where the team rebounded by replacing the corpses of Tony Batista and Juan Castro with Bartlett and Punto. Replace Vazquez and Kepler with Jeffers and Wallner, and see if if there's any spark. Ideally then Miranda comes up to DH, maybe try Buxton in left field as his next step.

    Rocco pinch hit for Kirilloff in the first inning after learning it was a left handed tee
  10. lukeduke1980
    Just for fun I think we should trade Kepler to the Yankees and watch him just start peppering their short porch in right.
  11. lukeduke1980
    Buxton, Correa, Miranda need to figure it out by year end or start over.
  12. lukeduke1980
    Pablo lopez looks like a good option
  13. lukeduke1980
    I praised an 11 year old last night for having a productive at bat and moving 2 guys over. Surely even if you expect Kiriloff to be futile against Sean Manea he seems like the kind of hitter who will still have a professional productive at bat. I don't get it, this is not a watchable product.

    This one literally made me spit out my drink.
  15. lukeduke1980
    I don't think it's a big deal, you pay a ton of money to park your car, buy a ticket and eat a hot dog, then joining a boos chorus to show dissatisfaction for the entertainment shouldn't be controversial. I don't think MN sports fans abuse this.

    He and Buxton discussed over lobster dinner, which he ate several times a week

    Curse of the hats. Send them back to miami
  18. lukeduke1980
    That's all we got, one gosh darn hit?
  19. lukeduke1980
    Reminds me of Joe Ryan giving up 10 runs in San Diego last year, hung out to dry for the sake of trying to eat innings. I don't totally disagree with it, but I wonder how pitchers feel about it
  20. lukeduke1980
    90 games dh, 30 in cf? That would be a good year to me.
  21. lukeduke1980
    Alcantara is among the best, Luzardo is on the upswing. Hard to be concerned. Try again Friday.
  22. lukeduke1980
    Well hopefully they face Pagan less in the 9th this year, that matchup seemed to account for a handful of wins last year
  23. lukeduke1980
    Similar profile to Arraez. Good to have someone else who can handle the bat. Close and late with a runner on 2nd he can PH for Gallo
  24. lukeduke1980
    There will still be a lot of 6th innings to pitch so I'm guessing that's Pagans role
  25. lukeduke1980
    Maybe less Buxton in CF in April/May, until it warms up a bit
