    Maybe the move was to improve the outfield, get Arraez out of there.

    Dead weight offensively, aside from his first game back he's been just invisible. Used to be a huge bat in the 5-spot for this team and he's vanished.
  3. bighat
    This team never has a chance if they don't score at least 5 runs. I feel negatively about things since that Kepler homer, I'd like that to change this inning and see some balls fly around the park. Maybe the long half-inning will ice Minor.

    Apparently a hit-and-run was on, Arraez missed the sign. At least that's what it looked like in the Twins dugout.
  5. bighat
    Which team has made more outs on the bases so far this series? Both teams seem to just run into outs constantly. Richard says that it appears Arraez missed the hit and run sign there.

    Odorizzi was almost out of it there. Awful wild pitch there. Twins give one back, just like Texas gave them a run earlier. Even steven I guess.
  7. bighat
    Couple hard-hit balls this inning off Odorizzi, in a bit of a jam here.
  8. bighat
    And they blew the opportunity, didn't score, still 3-2 going to the 8th.
  9. bighat
    We'll take that! Boom! Kepler! Error on Sano pop-up! Extra run! YEAH! Make 'em pay!
  10. bighat
    Nice hit Gonzalez....stay at first next time. Yeesh.
  11. bighat
    Agreed.

    I think this escalates - especially if Texas blows out the Twins one of these next 3 games. If the Rangers are up 15-4 or something, I wouldn't put it past a guy like Trevor May or something to zip one into the rib cage of a guy like Hunter Pence or Elvis Andrus. Kepler's the best all around player the Twins have. I think if a score gets out of hand, someone on Texas will pay before Sunday's over.

    Rosario with a breather tonight. Cruz, get well soon. In the meantime, Sano keep doing what you're doing to pick up the slack.
  14. bighat
    Oh I didn't think you endorsed it, Tom - sorry if you took offense! I was saying the beaning was BS, not your post.
  15. bighat
    I think swinging 3-0 is fine - unless you're up by 7 runs in the 9th inning (or so the rule goes). That said, as I mentioned, the Phillies dropped 6 runs in the 9th against the Cubs and beat them. In today's game, no lead is safe.
  16. bighat
    Honestly man, what kind of BS is that? The Twins have been struggling, Cave has been struggling....what's he supposed to do in a 3-0 count? Take a strike? Why? The pitcher should have thrown strikes earlier in the count and he wouldn't be in that situation. Just moments before Cave's AB, Bryce Harper had just homered to complete a 6-run 9th inning comeback by the Phillies to beat the Cubs. With the Twins pitching staff, no lead is safe. I see nothing wrong with Jake padding his stats there, nor is there anything wrong with the Twins running up the score. That beaning of Kepler was really bush league.

    Yeah, the stadium looks fine, I remember when it was brand new, seems just like yesterday. Reminds me of how the Braves got a new stadium after their last one, which was built in like 2002. Amazing how some teams go through stadiums like that. Cash grabs by both politicians and privately held local companies alike. Usually at the public's expense.
  18. bighat
    Right, but throwing doesn't have anything to do with range. If the original poster had said "Polanco has the arm of a caged chicken", then we'd all be on the same page. Come to think of it, chickens don't have arms...what were we talking about, anyway? Anyway, water under the bridge man.
  19. bighat
    He was playing shortstop. Range was criticized, he certainly doesn't lack that skill.
  20. bighat
    Short memory? https://www.mlb.com/twins/video/martin-perez-in-play-out-s-to-mike-moustakas
  21. bighat
    C'mon already, Smelzer.
  22. bighat
    That's why I felt comfortable only when they'd scored that 10th run. Could be an 11-8 final. Oh well, not quite time to kvetch just yet, I think if they can get out of this inning with no more runs they'll be okay.
  23. bighat
    Stop squeezing Pineda in an 11-2 game, ump.
  24. bighat
    Texas literally "played payano" tonight. Sweet music indeed!
  25. bighat
    That 10th run makes me finally feel secure that we'll nab this one. Great game from Marwin! Stay hot buddy!
