  1. Megill has been pretty erratic all night but a terrible Castro AB + a GDP make sure this club can't put any real distance between them and an anemic Mets offense. France making the last out of an inning getting thrown out at 3B was comical as well.
  2. That's what, 3 hits that haven't left the IF so far tonight? Plus a Correa blooper to score another run? I never want to hear people moan about other teams dinking and dunking Twins pitchers....
  3. By Twins standards Bader is an every day player but yeah, more of him isn't ideal.
  4. The sentiment is picking up steam. Genuinely curious if those in favor are willing to sit through a repeat of the previous decade to break open another "contention window," this club was supposed to be in currently.
  5. Honestly I often prefer listening to opposing broadcasts, particularly when the Twins aren't playing well. I can't handle the mental gymnastics used to sugar coat the play on the field. These guys are hired to sell a product, so I get it to an extent, but man it's rough.
  6. Unless he wanted less flexibility and $$, yeah, he kinda was forced back to the Twins. The additional negotiations with SF and NY came after failed physicals. I'm sure each club was disappointed (at least at the time) that they weren't able to sign him for few years and less money.
  7. I can't talk I'm the guy who buys gallons of distilled water and remineralizes it for my morning coffee.
  8. It'll probably get lost in the wash with everything that went wrong this game but yeah Idk why you're subbing out Julien in that situation for Bader with a runner right in front of him on 2nd and Gasper on deck. I guess you're hoping Bader scores on an extra base hit where Julien wouldn't? Idk. That seems like a stretch. It didn't matter, but if you're giving up an OF spot Idk why you wouldn't pinch hit Bader for Gasper to do it. If Gasper comes through and the inning ends tied at 7 (and let's be honest, Vazquez was up next) Bader is moving to a corner, Larnach or Wallner are out, Miranda has to come in at 3B, and Castro has to slide to 2B. All of that commotion and a completely empty bench heading into extra innings just to keep Gasper at DH.
  9. Yeah it was a joke but honestly they're ****heads .
  10. This team will eventually win some games (White Sox are up soon right?) and we'll hear about how Correa had player X, Y, and/or Z with him in the cage. Can't wait.
  11. Ditto, but Correa in particular has had quite a bit of praise heaped on him for being a leader, mentor, ect.
  12. Invest in a paddle board and meet us on the lakes (if there isn't another E.coli issue) this summer.
  13. Incoming "players only meeting." That'll what, the 3rd or 4th such meeting in the last 2 seasons?
  14. I don't necessarily disagree, but I'd love it if the same media (or fans) who fawn over guys like Correa were the ones asking him why this team, himself included, seems to be going through the motions for an extended period of time.
  15. I know this is facetious, but it's odd how the lethargic nature of this club is seemingly being pinned primarily on the manager when there are players who are constantly praised for their leadership, preparedness, ect.
  16. The laz a faire approach many choose to take is incorrect IMO
  17. Slightly off topic, but waaaay to many people don't understand baseball math. They see 162 games and think there's plenty of time. The regular season is a marathon, no doubt, but competitive marathon runners don't sit at the starting line for the first mile and two and win the race.
  18. 5 innings into the season series might be a bit premature
  19. Same reason a 1B isn't charged with an error when an IF short hops a throw that isn't scooped.
  20. Actively cringed watching that segment.
  21. Nope. Festa was in the correct position. Wallner needs to eat that throw, and/or Correa has to dig it out. That play is 100% on the fielders.
  22. That's Twins baseball baby. Our RF makes and off target throw where there was little to no chance of getting the runner. The runner at first gets to take 2nd. Correa deflects the ball trying to dig out the throw and instead of 1st and 3rd with 2 outs it's a runner on 3rd with two outs and a run across. Jfc.....
