  1. Seriously? You are comparing us to them? Oh for crying out loud! We might not have a great team, but we have a pretty decent team and do have some good things going for us. I hear some of the same things from Twins fans that I heard from this Sox fan. It’s always frustrating to lose, especially to bad teams, but we aren’t going to win them all and bad teams aren’t going to lose them all.
  2. Keep it rolling’! Matchups: Lineups:
  3. I mean, we could just do away with sports because they are injury risks. And while I have high hopes for López, I’m not ready to call him our ace. It was absolutely the correct move to send him out for the 6th. We could debate the 7th, but I’d have still sent him out there, too. Geez, it’s bad to pull starters after 4 or 5 and now it’s bad to send them out for a 6th? I don’t get the logic here.
  4. It wasn’t pretty, but last year we’d have had Pagan pitching in that situation and we’d have lost. However ugly the win, it was a win and I call it progress from the previous year.
  5. My apologies. I didn’t realize you were a medical doctor with an expertise in this field of medicine. Are you heezy’s intern?
  6. Yeah. However, lesser teams would have lost that. Think last year and if we had to call on Pagan in that situation? It was an ugly win, and maybe we didn’t deserve to win, but, last year we would have for sure lost that. So, ugly as it was, I also call it progress
  7. Stringer! Quit throwing out these jinxes! You know better!
  8. Gallo has become my latest favorite
  9. I got home from work at just the right time ..l that was a beautiful bunt and Taylor got to 2nd on that .,, and now he’s at 3rd!
  10. Please stick to the topic. If you want to talk about Taylor, Buxton, Gordon, and anyone not related to Kepler, please start your own thread
  11. Nitpick: the wrist is a joint involving forearm bones connecting to the hand, so it isn't incorrect to call it wrist surgery. It was the wrist area that was affected and the 'cure' was to cut out part of the forearm bone near the joint.
  12. I think Gallo is a talented player, that as he gets more reps at first, he will be as good as anyone there. I've been very impressed by his play there so far this year. However, he IS an OFer, and when AK comes back, I'm assuming we see more of him in the OF. Although AK plays both positions, too. There will probably be a lot of mix and match for both of them, especially if both are hitting.
  13. I like seeing 'our' guys succeed elsewhere. There was no room here for Rooker here, but I'm really happy for him that something 'clicked' and I hope it carries through the season and he has a good career.
  14. And Winder is up ... I assume in a long relief role ...
  15. As many of us were hoping for ...
  16. Stay on topic, please! If you can't understand an analogy without taking it personally and derailing a thread, you are in the wrong place.
  17. Remind me next September ... maybe we can meet up in the park and clink a beer ... hopefully because the Twins will have clinched by then! 🙂
  18. Yep ... why I tune in regularly instead of just ... whenever ... it's a very, very nice change.
  19. If I get to the games in Chicago (work will be crazier than usual next week, so not sure I can manage it), if either comes in, I'll flash my phone light ... lol ...
  20. Just to clarify, Rocco can only do what Rocco is given. I hope the FO is watching and listening and working to make necessary changes to the roster. Our BP, for me, anyway, was iffy to start. I'm happy with the ones who have performed, but, it's time to change it up with those who haven't. Hopefully Winder is up soon and Moran back to AAA. Pagan ... feel sorry for him, but I didn't think they should have kept him and I still think they shouldn't.
  21. I don't know yet if they would be better with Maeda in the BP. We haven't seen that yet. Maeda needs to 'get right' before that switch is made, if it is made.
