  1. I sure question the way closers are used these days. Lopez, who is supposed to be our best reliever (I guess) has the least amount of pitches thrown in the last 5 days, except Davis the new guy. Is this maximizing your best players?
  2. 5 of the 9 Twins starting lineup today consisted of players not expected to start too many games for the Twins this year. Makes it tough to win, especially against the Evil Empire.
  3. Magill threw a meatball to Judge . . . why give him anything to hit, especially in a tie ball game?
  4. I think Jeffers was placed on IL July 15th with 60 days making Sept. 13th possible return date. Larnach was IL'd retroactive to June 24th, with 60 days gone past making him available whenever he is healthy enough to be added back to the roster.
  5. Good instigators instigate. It messed with the Twins didn't it, ended up with the screwed up mound visit thing and Sanchez having to be replaced on the mound. It feels like good teams are just toying with us. It's rather embarrassing really.
  6. My wife can be looking right at me when I say something, and respond with, "what"?
  7. Tuesday: TBD vs Justin Verlander TBD better = Throw Big Donuts
  8. That slider to strike out Melendez in the 6th was balderdash. Gray & Leon looked like a mighty fine battery out there tonite. Great conviction on pitches by Gray. 6-18 with RISP; smell those ribbies.
  9. If this were 1969, in April manager Billy Martin would have confronted Tyler Duffey on his conditioning in a hotel elevator where scuffling and punches could ensue and the team would have a completely different demeanor, not roll over and play dead in a pennant race. The pitching staff is the pitching staff, but we have to score some of the runners we're putting on base. C'mon!
  10. 0-14 with RISP tonite and ended up loosing a very winable game. I think I used up a weeks worth of cuss words.
  11. Yeah, I kind of wondered about his conditioning as he looked kind of squiggie to me too.
  12. Who thought Balazovic would be 0-5 with a 10.75 era at this point this year? I like how the camera in the Lee recording pans and focuses on the chain link fence . . . awesome.
  13. I agree, but for one night and one swing of the bat . . . hoowee!
  14. MLB Trade Rumors says 2 additional pitching prospects are also being shipped to the O's. Who pays the shipping on this anyway? Right-hander Juan Nunez and left-hander Juan Rojas, sources tell ESPN.
  15. A little off subject here, but if the Twins didn't sign Correa, would Lewis have gotten hurt? Did signing Correa (cost) prevent us from signing relievers? What does having our pitching coach leave mid-season mean for our pitching staff the rest of the year?
  16. I think Sano is a big X-factor. If he can get into a hitting groove he could really pump up the offense as we make a push for the post season.
  17. Yeah, gotta go with '66 Kaat over '06 Liriano. Both had 4.5 WAR but Kaat led the league in wins, starts, complete games and innings pitched.
  18. Those right field upper deck corner seats look like they're in the ozone layer. Do they provide oxygen masks?
  19. But this is the Twins. Men in scoring position with no outs leads to no runs more than most would like. Vive la Miranda.
  20. Except . . . he only threw 9 pitches and we have a day off, why not use him for 2 innings against the team you're probably fighting for the division title..
