    My hand is gripping my margherita glass like a vice

    The way gambling is being pushed with sports is not my cup of tea. That is one vice I have fortunately been able to avoid. I work hard for my money there is no way I would risk it for something silly like gambling on sports.

    If the Twins do win the division it will be because they checked some of the necessary boxes and performed quite well the rest of the way. It follows that they would be on an upswing which would bode well for winning one damn playoff game!?!?!?

    Yes and yes

    He reminds me of J.T. CHARGOIS another flame throwing Rice University alum who I had high hopes for. He managed 53 innings with a 2.50 ERA and 9 SO per 9 last year at age 30 and managed over 60 this year, but is again on the shelf with an oblique strain. Canterino is going to be around the majors for a long time. He will probably have some success, maybe even a stellar career. The question is if he does shine, who will it be with?

    Oh ok. When you talk of CES and Speer you mention hope, implying uncertainty with prospects. Then you go on to sound quite certain about Miller. Which is it? Miller is 19, his older brother who was considered the lesser prospect is in the majors just getting started and might end up fitting your disruption of Noah, a utility guy. He could end up better than that or worse. Noah looked really good to me at short in spring training as a guy a year out of high school, in Wisconsin, playing with major leaguers for the first time. The book is still out.

    Knocks on wood*Duran had similar issues and to the surprise of my jaded read end has fared well this year *knocks on wood. Still it seems like Canterino has been going through this for two years.

    Even last year when things are looking good, I wondered how long batters would swing under high fastballs coming in at less than overwhelming pace. Yes he can hit 94, but he seems to live at 89-92. Without good command of some plus off-speed stuff I'm not sure of his chances. That being said, his overall first year from last year to this has been pretty dang good, give him some time to mature and adjust and things could swing back the other way. Yes, let's hope Gray can give the Firey Rocco Baldelli good reason to use the top pen arms.

    Good post.What did we go through before the front office change, 6 out of 7 years with 90 plus loses. They have had many injuries, and I think you could point at the FO for bringing in injury prone players. They have also been much quicker to adapt, much less risk adverse, and we are set up well next year in many areas. Maeda, Mahle, Gray, Ryan, Winder, Ober and Paddack in the second half. That's not your Terry Ryan rotation.
