  1. If Belisle is closing next week we will all feel very sad. Time for new blood. I don't mind the return arm. Here's hoping the new kid recovers.
  2. I was responding to a post about "too many cooks in the kitchen" - but I was doing so from my phone, and my post ended up like a page behind the message I was responding to. I agree it looked like the bizarre ramblings of a lunatic!
  3. The cook is Molitor and he never washes his hands after he uses the bathroom.
  4. Here's hoping Mejia's wrist is OK. The guy's been effective and seems to have earned a spot in the rotation moving forward. Shutting down the Tribe on the road, tip your cap to him. Garver's hit held up, nice to see him contributing. Hildy's given up 11 earned runs over his past 14 innings pitched.
  5. Remember when Kendrys Morales had that "lost season" with the Twins a few years back? Played 39 games, had just 1 HR and batted .234. Looked like he was completely out of gas. Then he goes to KC and drives in 106 the next year, hits 30 HR the year after that. Goes to Toronto and hits 28 HR last year. This Logan Morrison situation seems very familiar. I'm guessing he'll be able to get back in the groove, but it won't be in MN. Very odd how some players come to MN and have career-worst seasons, then get their mojo back when they leave. I'm guessing this happens to every team, and we could find examples elsewhere. But for some reason it just seems like the Twins bring out the worst in veteran hitters.
  6. Turned it on and the Twins were down 2-0 in the 1st. The next inning, Rosario struck out on a pitch over his head, and I pretty much thought "yeah, these guys aren't coming back". This game didn't look appealing from a Twins fan perspective from the get-go. The FO is just grinding the fans down with this Belisle stuff. Just keep rolling him out there until we finally don't care enough to complain.
  7. Do you all know something about Morrison that I don't? He's been terrible all year and there hasn't been one peep from the FO to make me think they are going to move/demote him. I don't mind seeing Field but with all the other options (Austin in particular) I'd prefer to get a look at many others instead.
  8. The MLB non-waiver trade deadline was July 31st at 4:00pm. You can't just wait until mid-August and trade a guy whenever you want, unfortunately.
  9. Grossman reportedly sent to the DL. Motter? Or will we get to see Austin?
  10. Fernando "Don't Get Too Comfortable" Rodney with the save. Nice play by Sano there.
  11. Me neither. I don't care if he gets the job done most of the time. I'm sick of him walking the bases loaded, going to 3-2 counts, etc. I miss those "boring" closers who simply get 3 ground ball outs in the 9th.
  12. No challenge from KC there? Nice throw by Garver. As Dick said, he's probably had his worst day in the majors at the plate today.
  13. Garver with an unforgivable day at the plate.
  14. You mean that Osmond Family-style rendition of "God Bless America"? Ehhh, I was waiting for someone else to touch it first.
  15. I dunno. About 5 of those 7 hits were little flares. I think Santana was running out of gas but I don't think he was on empty just yet. Agree to disagree on this one?
  16. Hildy hasn't seemed sharp in the 2nd half.
  17. I hope he's earned a permanent role! Didn't we get him for John Ryan Murphy BTW?
  18. Bad day for Garver with the bat.
  19. Taking Santana out with a 3-run lead and just 1 more out to get? Molitor proving he's not a "player's manager" that's for sure. Slap in the face to a team leader who's pitched pretty well.
  20. Santana looking OK. In his defense there's only been really one hard-hit ball against him. These dinks and dunks are killing him.
  21. A couple non-productive outs from Garver when all he had to do was get the runner over. Great job Adrianza by just doing it the old-fashioned way!
