  1. So, there was something to Julien being pulled during the Saints game yesterday.
  2. Bad play results in bad losses. That’s all that needs to be said.
  3. They’re wearing them in the Sox-Royals game, too … so must be a MLB thing
  4. People think I’m 40. I like to just nod and agree
  5. No matter how old we all are, no one has Chief beat. He’s older than all our ages added together!
  6. Yeah … trying to figure out when will be a good time to retire … at 65 or 67
  7. Watching the ChiSox-Royals game while I wait for the Twins game
  8. You guys really know how to threadjack AND write novels in one fell swoop! 🙂
  9. I got you both beat, so knock it off! 🙂
  10. Ugh .., that’s twice I’ve done that this week … lol … time zones are not my friend!
  11. So that’s good, but then there is this:
  12. Lol .., you went from not knowing the availability to players being unavailable …
  13. Well, hmmmmm ... no Gallo or Polanco (any updates there?) and no Kirilloff. The rest of them better get it done for Joe, but for some reason, the Twins have been pretty good at giving him run support. I know ... it's a lefty ...
  14. Even though I don't work in the morning, I still might miss this ... I'm old and it's late ... but GO TWINS!
  15. I gave you a thumbs down for this post only because there is so much sarcasm in every line I have to somewhat mind read what you are actually trying to say. And when I have to respond from an assumption, I’m usually wrong. But let me try to summarize ,,, you aren’t at all happy Kyle Garlick is getting called up because he doesn’t field a position you’d like, and his bat isn’t what we need? And you really dislike his specialized usage? Did I get that right? So who then gets the call up? Not that I’m happy with the call up, but it wasn’t unexpected, so, my expectations were managed. The one player you mentioned earlier is on the IL What’s the update on Gallo and Polo that informs this choice? I’d say it’s way too soon to talk trade for someone because it is. Not that that couldn’t happen, it could, it’s just not very likely. So who on the AAA roster who is also on the 40-man gets the call?
  16. The majority of those games in CF were 2019 or before. He could be used as an emergency back up but not the backup, imo
  17. Was he? He played center with the Dodgers and Yankees and Rangers? I guess I didn’t know that. Should have, I guess
  18. We’ve already heard that Garlick has been recalled. When did Gallo last play CF? And how many games has he had out there? I’m not sold on that
  19. I was just responding to someone who put it all on Rocco. I agree with you in that I'm sure that Rocco is consulted in some way about needs, but I don't think he has a real say in what the FO does. But then, I don't really know.
  20. And officially suspended 10 games. https://www.mlb.com/news/domingo-german-suspended-foreign-substance#:~:text=TORONTO -- Yankees pitcher Domingo,Blue Jays at Rogers Centre.
  21. Not sure if this was address to me or not. IMO, playoffs are crapshoot, however, with the Twins starting rotation, I think that plays well for playoffs. However, yes, their bats have to remain consistent. I don't think we need a 'juggernaut' lineup, just one that can keep us in it. Yes, the BP needs tweaking. That's what I would address. We have 2 or 3 rp that I feel confident in. I'd like to see a trade for two more, like they did at last year's deadline. It would have been nice if that were addressed in the off-season as many of us had wished, but here we are. As for your list of 7, I think all of them will/should see some time on the active roster, and will contribute, but not sure if they will get significant and consistent time other than Royce.
