    I could care less if Luplow has options left or not.... he is less than replacement level.
  2. D.C Twins
    Agreed!

    Lots of observations: 1. Julian, Lewis, and Wallner need to play every. single. day. Jeffers probably needs to join this group playing every day being DH when not C. They are young and clearly the spark plugs for our success. (by every day.... I mean at least 150 games a season... sporadic days off will be needed but not scheduled) 2. Our SP has obviously been our bedrock this season 3. I still have absolutely no idea why Luplow and Gallo are on this team. Options at AAA could not be worse, may be better, and would at least get development and provide the organization much needed information. 4. What the hell happened to Kepler? His performance seems to have a flavor of development and not just a simple heater. I love to see it, but it would be interesting to know the why.... As he came up (and for probably too long after) I espoused that he would develop into a 3 hole hitter and be the heart of our offense (yep there is embarrassing documentation of this somewhere in the TD archives).... That is what he is hitting like now.... I know that he will not hit at this level always, but he does seem to have figured something out. 5. Polanco is going to be one tough decision. My opinion changes almost daily :)

    All right fess up.... who pissed in Vanimal's cheerios this morning.... own up and apologize!

    Not an oddity... superior command has always been a reliable pathway to great pitching results. The question is how often he will have that superior command.. because when he doesn't it will get U-G-L-Y and quick

    I dread the return of Buxton to the DH position. That makes me sad to say, but it is true. He makes the team worse when he is DH plain and simple. But, they will put him back there because of the contact.... so sad....
  7. D.C Twins
    Not exactly a Hot Take by any stretch of the imagination...
  8. D.C Twins
    The elephant in the room is that the offense has also benefited greatly from removing Buxton as the DH. I am a huge fan of Buxton, but he hurts this team at DH. I see Julian as our playoff DH He needs to stay on the IL until he can play CF.
  9. D.C Twins
    Well, I think it is fare to say that they won 2 of 3 despite Gallo, not because of him!
  10. D.C Twins
    I see you point... but I would rather see a AAA backfill get a chance... it could not be worse, could be better, and certainly would be more valuable experience!
  11. D.C Twins
    Gallo's inevitable 2-3 S0 per game were apparently required at the top of the order today! I've been following baseball for a looooong time and have never seen a 'contending' team stick with a futile player for so long. (much less any other team for that matter) Shame-proof up in the FO apparently. Great to get the win though! :)

    The FO needs to stop rolling dice and assess their internal assets properly. This 'move' was absolutely ridiculous both for the short term and long term.

    "Unable Unwilling to acquire a right-handed hitting outfielder at the trade deadline..." (I fixed that for you!) Buck to the DL (I assume)... finally..... Only a 2 months late to even the most casual of observer 🙄 As far as this 'move'.... I agree with Parfigliano..... it is embarrassing that the FO even wasted the time to think about this acquistion much less make it. What a Sh- Show
  15. D.C Twins
    (narrator's voice) He is not reading your posts...
  16. D.C Twins
    Hopefully it will change in the future, and I am rooting for him... BUT.... Buck is a zero-tool player right now if we are being honest with ourselves.
  17. D.C Twins
    Lee will be the starting 2B in The Show next year!

    Wait..... Is that the hubcap to OUR CAR that just rolled by?!?!

    "The manager can make all the right decisions" Not. Even. Close. 'What does that mean for Baldelli and his coaches?' : Fired "What does that mean for the players?": The Bench or DFA
  21. D.C Twins
    "The reality is that this is a flawed team. If they want to truly be a contender for more than an AL Central title, today wasn't going to be the game changer." I agree, but then they should have traded Maeda, Kepler, Polanco, Gallo (if possible and if not DFA), and Gray (if the return was better than the comp pick linked to the QO) Doing nothing was the only true wrong answer and they managed to pull it off.... Congrats...or something....
  22. D.C Twins
    Dude.... watching the Central Sh- Show play out is going to be hilarious.... There is a bigger chance that the Central SH- Show causes baseball realignment or playoff rule changes next year than the Twins winning the WS. I'm. Not. Kidding.
  23. D.C Twins
    Buck back hitting 4th.... ummmm.... why?????
  24. D.C Twins
    The Central Division can now officially be called The Sh- Show.... With Chicago and Cleveland selling along with good 'ol KC and Detroit.... The Twins can sell and still accidentally win The Sh- Show... !
  25. D.C Twins
    Avert your eyes from the change in pitching stats during this time....
