    Zip. The quality of the well prepared starting staff is the answer your looking for.

    I'll wait till the end of the season to see how this plays out. By September last year this team was unwatchable. With potential mid-season reinforcements like Lewis, AK, Julien, Martin and even Paddack at some capacity, and a well curated roster, who knows this team could finish strong. We limped into the playoffs in '19 and '20 so we all know that story. A strong finish could make all this early season hand winging just fade into the late summer breeze.

    Of course, but people act like if they started Buxton in center field they would've won the game. It's all just second guessing. Indiana's very good point stands and I like our chances the next two games. This first game was the one anyone looking at this series preview was the one we would be most likely to lose. Those hoping for the best lineup the Twins can muster are going to have to be patient for about two weeks judging by Polanco's progress. You'd think Gallo would be back. I'm not sure if Kepler is a better option than Walner at this point. Maybe some others heat up. My guess is the Twins best possible 2023 lineup will not come to pass until well into summer with guys like Lewis, AK and maybe Julien and Martin providing the boost. Looking at the bright side this could be a Twins team that peaks at the end of the year instead of the all too familiar opposite.

    Double post (intentional)

    When is the last time the Twins stacked up like this against a pitcher of this caliber? Johan? Maybe the one good year of the other Santana?

    Nine games in and in two of them, 22.22%, our starters gave up 4 runs. In one the starter then set down 11 straight for a good performance and a win. In the other he did have a good 6th. In Twins history this would be a very good result. I'm looking forward to watching Twins starters making the Yankee's batters work for a change.

    Brown looked good to me. I'm hoping we keep getting guys back from injury and this offense becomes less offensive.

    Up the middle bench players pushed into action early. Nothing new around these parts, but man there is a difference this year. GG center fielder, a real life MLB short stop and G Cinco at second. Ok Nick Gordon is not considered great at second and is off to a slow start. I do believe he is major league caliber. That's the thing, not every player is going to start off hot. Guys like Farmer and Donny Barrels are established major leaguers and give the Twins the luxury of plugging in a player who has hit the ground running. It also allows them to hit the reset button on Correa. This is completely different than when we faced these guys last year. Let's get the sweep!

    Many teams choose to consider Urquidy a virtual lefty when facing him. The Twins did not lead the way here.

    Duran actually got through the season healthy last year after pitching 16 innings the year before and battling injuries every year. I'd vote for letting those in charge handle him again this year. They seemed to have gotten it right, eh?
  19. wabene
    Yes?

    The granite on the top of the shower knee wall? Now that's top-shelf!

    Let me just get this of of the way for this season and I'll zip it the rest of the way. Could Justin Morneau please just stop talking for a few seconds here and there? I just cannot take it. I did like Cory P.

    This was a great start. A strong showing against the Astros and the #%&@anks could really build the confidence of this team. Oh and crush the Dirty Sox too.
  23. wabene
    So far so freaking good!
  24. wabene
    Are you a Contreras contrarian?

    Maeda very well could get stronger this season. There have been questions about that ligament since before he singed with the MLB in the first place. It finally gave way, but now that it is fixed it very likely could extend his career some. He is exactly the type of pitcher who ages well.
