  1. Agreed. Errors are usually not so bad with nobody on base.
  2. I think Garver could have made it home on that WP.
  3. Soft-tossing, journeyman lefty junkballers have always caused the Twins problems for some reason. Wish I was making that up.
  4. This offense doesn't seem to ever believe they're out of it. Gotta appreciate the fire.
  5. I think 2 is the bare minimum, 3 if they want to really give this thing a run. They need at least one starter as well, again at the minimum.
  6. Bullpen issues tend to start up the crank-o-meter.
  7. I think May has been the pet project of just about every coach on this team for years. He's been Mr. Potential for years and either hasn't achieved or is just not as good as most fans/coaches think he is.
  8. Here's May again. Still not sold on this guy. Baldelli basically using him to see if this guy can stay on the roster when the Twins trade for bullpen talent? At this point it seems like he's being tested and the Twins are doing their best to take a look at / showcase his value. Maybe he's a potential trade piece going back somewhere?
  9. Huh, odd as I thought that smokeless ban was MLB-wide years ago. Kinda forgot about the issue. Does Buxton dip? Looks like it. Who are the Twins players (and for that matter, any list of current MLB players) who use smokeless tobacco?
  10. As opposed to Castro who normally hits in front of him? He's always hitting behind slow guys it seems.
  11. Sano, c'mon man. Enough already. I'd be so happy if that guy just hit a single the other way.
  12. Cron, Sano, and Bux the 7-8-9 hitters. Not a bad bottom 3rd, wow.
  13. Count me in as one of those people. When Sano struck out in the 8th....grrrr....when May put 2 on in the 9th...grrr... But man. Think about how many teams out there are hovering around .500 and watching their guys just blow games left and right. Think about how last year at this time we were still holding out hope as we watched Dozier and Mauer and Robbie Grossman and Fernando Rodney every night. Man....last year, a bad game would or a bad week from a player would just kill this team. These days, a bad week from a player doesn't even matter because this team is so deep. Weird getting used to this.
  14. Who are we mad at this morning? May? Sano? Perez? Harper? I'm trying to be more positive today so I'll focus on the big picture: the Cruz and Gonzalez signings were brilliant. Our catchers are offensive juggernauts. This team is surely playoff bound. The window to trade for pitching help will be opening up in a couple weeks. The only question is if the Twins can secure home field throughout with the best AL record! Wow!
  15. Jeez Trevor, tone it down a bit man.
  16. I think you mean "great salad". That's some epic flow, boys.
  17. And here we are, Perez going to full counts against guys and up to 50 pitches before the 3rd inning.
  18. 3/5 of this starting rotation has shown they have some serious issues. At this point Pineda looks like the 3rd best with Perez and Gibby locked in the battle of the basement. Lord forbid Odorizzi regresses like Perez and Gibby have, or Berrios gets hurt. It's appearing more and more like the Twins are going to have to empty the minor league cupboards before the trade deadline hits in order to make a serious run at the world series. And you know what? Why not? Adding a legitimate starter and 1-2 bullpen arms will be worth every penny the Twins pay. Go get 'em tomorrow Twins, take the series and go .500 on the Cleveland-Detroit part of this roady.
