  1. This team is ELEVEN games out now lol incomprehensible
  2. It would be a godsend for correa to opt out and free up that money. Zero point to have an expensive guy like that on a Swiss cheese roster. Thanks for the memories, Carlos
  3. Couldn’t have said it better myself. All the days off and load management, what did they accomplish? Is it because other teams do it and we think we should too? Again, it’s the same as limiting starting pitchers. Other teams do it so we should too. Except we don’t have the bullpen to compensate. Same with giving guys days off. How much of a drop off are the replacements? I think the entire organizational philosophy stinks. Something is rotten from the ground up. Guys are not showing up to the ML with even the minimal prerequisite fundamental skills that this organization made its name on. We have more coaches than members of Congress and guys don’t even know how to run the bases. More numbers for more situations yet we’ve played 46-61 ball for the last 4 months. And where are we at, farm system wise? After we lost two good prospects for a guy we knew had injury issues? Man it just seems like it’s going to be a long time til we break that playoff loss streak.
  4. I never expected Cleveland to get this hot but thank god they did. Imagine if we were still a game or two out? How excruciating the losses would be?
  5. I wouldn’t bet on him being gone. If this were New York or LA, yes. But not MN. Plus this is the FO’s guy. A rejection of RB is a knock on the FO itself. They’re too entwined with the analytics stuff and have the perfect excuse of injuries to break things up. Just my 2 cents
  6. Posted this in the game thread, but if you’re wondering what a baseball team looks like when it completely quits, watch practically any game over the last month. I don’t know how you bring back a majority of the players and coaching staff that we currently have, and I’m not just talking about injury replacements
  7. 316 recognized no hitters since 1876, and the manager decided his starter wouldn’t be 317.
  8. Interesting that Cole, the Yankees ace, was allowed to throw nearly 120 pitches last night. Because his team needed him to. That’s a lot of pitches a month before the playoffs start. Seems kind of risky. Risky like having Aaron judge steal third. Then again, the Yankees apparently don’t have players who fear failure like the twins do (per Levine)
  9. Shouldn’t the organization be willing to change philosophy if it’s not suited to the way their team is constructed? “Oh, this thing we’re doing isn’t working but everyone else is also doing it so let’s not change anything!”. Sounds like a loser mentality
  10. Houston should have a pretty easy road to the pennant, even if the Yankees get healthy
  11. Pagan reminds me of Homer Simpson working at the Springfield power plant. Doesn’t matter how many times he messes up, still can’t get canned
  12. A bum Yankees lineup like that and they still put up 5 runs, which is usually considered a banner day for our offense
  13. I just don’t think it’s in the twins DNA. Molitor got 4 years and he lost 103 games in his second season
  14. I would be absolutely stunned if rocco is NOT managing next year. He gets one more year IMO and not because I think he’s the guy. I just can’t see them canning him.
  15. Twins coaching staff could use a house cleaning. Not calling for anyone’s job but is there a single facet of the game that has improved over the course of this season or the last couple? Anything? Yeah, injuries blah blah blah. Lots of vets still playing on an (almost) daily basis and they aren’t getting it done.
  16. Again, I never call for another man’s job (bad karma) but I’d have to believe we’ll have a revamped coaching staff next year. Rocco is almost certainly safe for another year although I have zero confidence in his ability to win anything more than the worst division in baseball.
  17. How much more rope does lopez get to be closer considering the time of year? SSS but Something seems off with him considering how dominant he was for pretty much the entire year in Baltimore. Duran has not been perfect but he’s been pretty darn steady all year. I would trust him more in the closer role
  18. Just saw it. Yeah he seemed pretty unhappy but unwilling to say something bad publicly. The ol’ “say it without saying it”. To be fair there were a couple games where he just falls off the map and loses it around the 4-5 inning. But I agree with the sentiment.
