    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.

    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.

    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.

    And Winder is up ... I assume in a long relief role ...
  5. Squirrel
    As many of us were hoping for ...

    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! 🙂
  7. Squirrel
    Yep ... why I tune in regularly instead of just ... whenever ... it's a very, very nice change.

    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 ...

    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.

    My first thought was to say, ‘Hush, you are jinxing things!’
  11. Squirrel
    I know. We got swept by them before. oh, wait …
  12. Squirrel
    I actually have. But the others ... no comment 😉

    I work with a couple of smug Yankee fans, What annoys me most when they try to say something to me about ‘owning’ the Twins, is how much one of them doesn’t know about the game or their own team. And he’s the worst of them.

    This is a transaction thread ONLY ... please start a separate thread for discussion. Thank you! (And keep to topic!)

    He threw 107 pitches. I don’t think he wanted to pitch the 8th. He seemed really appreciative that he was allowed and able to get out of the 7th, imo, from hearing him speak post-game.
  16. Squirrel
    Yes

    I was one who wanted to sign Donaldson and was glad they did. At the time, I think it was a good move and a good signing. The team needed an injection of energy and fight I thought Donaldson could bring. It didn’t quite gel, for whatever reason I’m not going to assume because I didn’t hear of anything while he was with the Twins. And at the time of the trade, I was very unsure of what we gave up and what we got in return. Where I stand now is I’m still glad they signed him, sorry it didn’t work out, but glad they moved on. We are currently, imo, in a better place without him.

    I think I read that info from maybe @stringer bell or @ashbury?
  19. Squirrel
    .62 is a really fun number!
  20. Squirrel
    That actually was changed.
  21. Squirrel
    Yeah, totally agree ... of all things, I never thought they'd have this 'problem' with the starting rotation! But not moving Ober back to St. Paul, then we are short a BP arm ... hopefully it won't be needed today or tomorrow ...
  22. Squirrel
    Pitching roster ... what happens now with Ober? Keep him up, exchange him for a BP arm?
  23. Squirrel
    And I just saw this ... so ... Maeda will pitch on Wednesday ...
  24. Squirrel
    And they are using him in the outfield OVER Aaron Hicks
  25. Squirrel
    Okay. So, you are okay with another team claiming him and we let him go for nothing? And why are we talking about Gordon in a thread on Jovani Moran? I don’t understand this segue
