    Oh yeah this is WHAT WE WANT! Way to go Jorge. Twins are just crushing Martinez here.

    Attaboy Donaldson.
  4. bighat
    Here we go!

    Heck yeah! Great job Arraez, what a sparkplug he is for this team.
  6. bighat
    Donaldson and Sano with hits, this is good.

    Buxton with the putout. Ahhh, has a nice ring to it.

    Casey Fien is a jerk. Cruz was suspended 7 years ago (SEVEN!) and served his time.
  9. bighat
    Yep, Renteria tested negative.

    Tonight's game between NYY and Philly also PPD:

    He's a righty. https://www.talkingchop.com/2020/7/27/21344561/mike-foltynewicz-braves-designated-for-assignment-trade

    He had a great resurgence last year in the 2nd half when he was called back up. Guy started 2 games in the NLDS last October, just 28 years old. What do the Braves know that we don't?

    Woah woah woah: Justin Morneau has a bunny rabbit?

    Covid's coming

    bighat commented on mikelink45's blog entry in mikelink45's Blog

    Twins could very well be facing the same problem as the Phillies. Rick Renteria, White Sox manager, is being held back from participating with the team due to a cough/flu-like symptoms. Test results will arrive tomorrow on Renteria.

    ....And now this:

    I think that's a very bold prediction. The way things have gone in the USA so far with Covid, I'd predict a slow, staggering death of all of these sports complete with protests and a lot of political bickering. Uncle Sam has way too many experts to just "shut things down". It'll be death by a thousand cuts.

    I'm hoping that MLB planned for this scenario. The answer: bring up the B team and get them on the field. It's really the only solution if MLB wants to have a season. They said they wanted to play ball, let's do it then. If this were the Twins I'd say the same thing. Do what you can: Blaine Hardy's starting tomorrow. Austin Adams starts Wednesday. Nick Gordon's leading off followed by Zander Weil and Yasiel Puig's hitting cleanup if he passes the physical (pre-covid diagnosis example for Puig here).

    Totally agree. MLB should have a "Covid Clause". If a player tests positive for Covid-19, they can be replaced without those moves counting against roster space. IMO if the league/Marlins take decisive action they should be able to play as soon as tomorrow. I am sure there are at least 30 professional players in the Marlins organization who do not have Covid-19. Get those guys in a safe place, test them twice, and play ball. I know it sounds heartless but for the league to work this year, this is what has to happen.

    The fact that it's the Marlins, of all teams, that's putting the season in jeopardy should come as no surprise. In their defense, the fact that Miami is one of the hottest Covid-19 places on the planet is not their fault. But still.

    Update: Yanks/Phillies has indeed been cancelled.
  22. bighat
    Before the season started, I was wondering about what would happen if the virus started spreading like wildfire in a clubhouse. Well here we are. The Marlins have registered 14 total cases in recent days and their home opener against Baltimore has been cancelled. There's talk of perhaps the Phillies/Yankees game being cancelled as well, as the Phillies are coming off a 3-game series against Miami. Patrick Reusse's take should come as no surprise to those who have read his columns over the years:

    Nicky Delmonico's 12-pitch AB is what knocked him out. Delmonico also knocked out Dobnak with a 13-pitch AB in the 2nd game of the series.

    Agree that Donaldson's off to a slow start. It doesn't look like good contact to me. No zip on those ground balls to 3rd base and SS, at least not the ones I've seen. And he didn't run out that ball to start the game yesterday but was bailed out by Polanco and eventually Cave. I am sure he felt bad about it. Not hitting the panic button yet. I did see a great clip of Donaldson looking at Nelson Cruz after his 2nd home run like "this is CRAZY!" - it's taken him one series to confirm he made the right decision. This team had 2 games of 10 and 14 runs, and Donaldson didn't get a hit in either of them. How's that for a stat? Nice to know this team isn't desperate for him to get going. Maeda looks like he's just what the Twins need. Nice job taking 2 this weekend, now a big home series!

    Delmonico just wears out Twins pitching, this guy is frustrating.
