  1. Two reasons. One, if it had been a quick inning, Stewart could have gone out for a second inning. Two, the Twins have a chance to put this one out of reach if the bats stay hot in the 8th. Can't let Milwaukee catch back up this half inning.
  2. I like this one actually. It would be deflating if the Twins let the Brewers back in the game after last inning.
  3. We're going to need you to stay at the bar, even if it means missing your flight.
  4. Nice AB Jeffers! Hope that starts his fire!
  5. Well Polanco only got an A ball outfielder with upside and a reliever.
  6. Yeah, pretty sure the whole board called that one before the game even started.
  7. Yeah, Cleveland is developing their own pitchers since Falvey left. When he was there, Cleveland was doing what the Twins are now doing.
  8. Not when Derek Falvey was there. The Twins are doing now pretty much what Falvey's crew was doing in Cleveland a decade ago. And Bieber was merely drafted by Cleveland when Falvey was there. He came to MN four months later.
  9. I actually think they were doing it right prior to this year. Trading prospects for young controllable pitchers seems like a much more reliable method of building a rotation than crossing your fingers that your draft picks in A ball will be what you need in three years.
  10. Just about every one of them were like Joe Ryan. They were either already called up, or in AAA and immediately promoted. Trevor Bauer, Corey Kluber, Mike Clevenger, Carlos Carrasco. Shane Bieber was pretty much the only guy they drafted and developed.
  11. Cleveland never produced a pitching pipeline. They traded for just about every one of their pitchers. Like the Twins have done.
  12. You'd be wrong. Danny Gladden thought it was brilliant idea.
  13. I'm open to Carlos Santana proving me wrong here.
  14. Well it was either that or let Martin hit, and that's also something they seem reluctant to do.
  15. It wasn't meant to hurt, it was meant to question your logic.
  16. If Gladden didn't believe it, it seems more like a situation where'd you'd keep your negative thoughts to yourself instead.
  17. Yeah, we know you dislike Julien. So surely you can rip Rocco for batting him leadoff then if he won't play more than four innings? Or for playing him at all if he's such a bum?
  18. Yeah, it was a stupid comment before Margot even stepped into the box.
  19. Here's a quote from Gladden on the radio: "The Twins are going to the bench early to pinch hit for the lefty Julien, Rocco's been great at that this year."
  20. Julien has been allowed to face one lefty this year, and he got a hit.
  21. Going out on a limb here, but signing Rhys Hoskins > Carlos Santana.
  22. I hope they erroneously overturned that call just to rub Rocco's nose in such a terrible, terrible managerial decision.
  23. If they're going to pull Julien every time a lefty steps on the mound, why didn't they trade him instead of Polanco? After his great rookie season, Julien almost certainly could have headlined a trade to land the top end pitching they needed.
  24. Funny, the Twins had a .6667 slugging percentage before Lewis got injured. Geez, they've only had 6 XBH since actually.
