    Teams are lobbying MLB to permit them to wear pinstriped uniforms when they play the Twins over the balance of the season.

    Gray is only playing SS because Kreidler has to play CF due to: Byron "The Tin Man" Buxton is out of the lineup for the XX straight game and the ownership/management lacks the guts to just put him on the injured list. Of course, Fedko or Martin could play CF but management trusts them both less than they trust Gray at SS (Too Bad, the team doesn't still have Outman to plug into CF!!). So why are Fedko and Martin even on the 26 man roster?? And for that matter, why is Gray? How much longer is the bullpen leash that is being given to Orze?? Sure seems he has more clunker appearances than good ones. On the bright side, Funderburk threw 2 innings without issuing a walk !!

    And at the end of June, Buxton the Tin Man is dinged up once again but management/ownership has failed to put him on the IL (gutless) where he belongs so that he can heal up this season after his previous 2026 season trips to the IL

    Given the state of the Twins bullpen and it's ability to fritter away win able games, the Twins are lobbying the league to award Gomez a save for his effort tonight in coming in, getting 3 outs and protecting a mere 5 RUN LEAD !!

    Martin was a horrible embarrassment in RF a week or so back when he misplayed two singles that were charitably scored as a triple, 1st inning, and a double, 2nd inning by the inept, visually impaired, hometown scorer. About that time, Keaschall took over starting in RF. Keep him up until after the Great 2026 Trade Deadline Clearance Sale, then send him back to St Paul to rediscover how to hit and to learn how to play the outfield.

    Ryan's problem is between the ears. When things don't go well or as expected, he falls apart. He needs: a strong catcher in calling a game, a pitching coach experienced in dealing with pitchers who get rattled, a manager who can see that his pitcher is getting rattled and is prepared to take action. This guy needs to be coddled and have his head screwed back on straight by trips to the mound by: Catcher, Pitching Coach & Manager. This lack of cold, hard, composure is what is holding Ryan back from being a top starter. With time, experience and coaching he may eventually "get it" and then again he may never "get it".
  17. Jacksson
    Quit coddling Buxton the Tin Man. You don't have enough guts to put him on the DL because he is your so called best player and without him in the lineup your chances of winning games is diminished. BUT he is less than 100% and that means when he is banged up he is not your best player. The team is going nowhere and Tin Man needs to go onto the DL so he can get closer, by getting healthier, to being himself.
  18. Jacksson
    Way to tank your trade value; nice going Joe !! This performance is exactly why Ryan should be traded at the deadline.
  19. Jacksson
    I think it is a miscarriage of justice that a pitcher who enters a game with a 5-3 lead and then promptly serves up a HOMERUN to narrow the score to 5-4 is credited with a save even though he did get the final out.
  20. Jacksson
    Until Shelton's own moves take us out of the game.
  21. Jacksson
    Yes they can. If/When they do, it's doubtful they will remain there.

    Let's examine the 2025 offseason, 2026 Spring Training and the second half of the 2026 season and make some observations with respect to the front office, the manager, the coaches, and ownership. Third Base = Was Royce Lewis, Now Brooks Lee Shortstop = Was Brooks Lee, Now Tristin Gray & Ryan Kreidler Second Base = Was Luke Keaschall, Now Kody Clemons First Base = Josh Bell & Kody Clemons, Now Royce Lewis Right Field = Matt Wallner & Austin Martin, Now Luke Keaschall Center Field = Byron Buxton & James Outman, Now Byron Buxton, Ryan Kreidler, Kody Clemons Left Field = Trevor Larnach, Now Trevor Larnach Catcher = Ryan Jeffers & Victor Caratini, Now Victor Caratini & Alex Jackson DH = Trevor Larnach, Josh Bell, Byron Buxton, Now Josh Bell Certainly does not instill much confidence in the organization and their ability to identify, analyze, coach and utilize the on field product. What in the heck were they doing? The time and place to learn and start at new positions IS NOT when the season begins !!

    The Twins TIN MAN is ailing again with (fill in the blank) and just got plunked in his left shoulder by a pitched ball. Just put him on the DL already and let him heal up.
  24. Jacksson
    His window of opportunity to be an asset for the Twins at the major league level has probably closed; depending on what happens in the Great 2026 Deadline Sell Off.
  25. Jacksson
    Send him over to St Paul to get outfield reps and to work on his hitting until after the 2026 deadline sell off.
