  1. Checking my advanced metric machine..... We don't win this game without Royce F-ing Lewis!!!!!! "I wanted to be up there in the 9th and I knew I was going to get the job done." This comment may have been even better than his hitting! (And I'll happily overreact to the SSS after the garbage 'offence' that we have been subjected to!)
  2. Anyone seen SWR pitch recently? Thoughts on the major malfunction?
  3. ....and it's not like hitting isn't a desperate need for the team or anything 🙄 ,,, what a S- Show
  4. "We (have) played a disjointed game today past 3 years is what we('ve) done did." I fixed that for you Rocco!
  5. "Do they ever watch their own product?" This is wonderfully insightful question that succinctly encapsulates our overwhelming frustration.
  6. And for all of those who argue how little the manager matters, I ask... Why have one then? Why not just have a phone in the dugout for the players to communicate directly with the FO or their AI bot? There is a manager, because leadership indeed DOES matter. Attitude, expectation, environment, attention to detail, competitive fire etc DOES matter. I'm sure Rocco would be fantastic in our FO, but he is NOT a good leader. As I've said for 2 years now.... if Rocco were to be fired, it is HIGHLY unlikely that he would be hired by another MLB team to manage. So, we extended him.... because we were worried that another team was clamoring to compete for his services if his contract expired? (just writing that made me giggle)
  7. Which scenario has better odds? 1. The Twins win the WS this year 2. MLB gets rid of the divisions during the offseason and just has the top teams from the entire American League go to the playoffs given the historic ineptitude of the Central Division this year and questionable performance previously (especially now with balanced schedules) I think #2, though unlikely, has a better chance than #1
  8. I would use the word 'competition' very loosely when describing the American League Central.....
  9. Baldi extension is the WORST news by far this year..... total gut punch
  10. Buck to CF and then Kirilloff to DH..... Taylor to bench.... but Buck out again now, so......
  11. When the FO is checking their algorithms, I hope they are taking into account who is else is getting AB because Buck is DH. Do we want Taylor or Kirilloff in the lineup.....Taylor or Kirilloff.....ummmmmm that is SUCH a tough decision 🙄
  12. Miranda in an absolute free fall. Nagging injury or flagging confidence? I wish him well to get back on track!
  13. Your outfield hitting summary: 0-11 with 7Ks For the love of all baseball, get Buck into CF already (and then Kirilloff could have started at DH!) I know everyone is probably getting tired of me pointing this out, but I promise not as tired as I am watching Buck be a permanent DH.
  14. Just my daily check in to see if Buck has been released into CF yet, but nope, sanity has not won out yet....
  15. Knee jerk reaction is YES WE SHOULD HAVE.... More nuanced assessment... would we have signed the right one out of the 'reliever lotto?' I'm sure the bullpen is the bane of all GMs existence....
  16. Or we could just simplify everything and have Buck play CF, but.....
  17. Free Bubble-Wrapped-Buck! Keeping him off the field given the team needs is getting sad and embarrassing
  18. Yep... they have one... an all star actually.... but alas.....
  19. Louie, Louie.... oooooh, oh....we got a win now.... yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.....
  20. Catches that other's dive for, Buck can catch on the run. Buck in CF means someone better than Taylor (or Gordon) can hit in the lineup. There is always a risk for injury but he is worth FAAAAAAAAR less as a player being DH only.
  21. Nice work... Now release Bubble-Wrapped Buck to run free in his natural CF habitat!
