    Where's the guy who called the loss in the 6th inning? Ghosted on outta here I guess. Called a sweep in fact.

    Ah that's Dougie Baseball

    Toronto didn't give up on them they traded them. Not the same thing. Teams make trades that hurt all the time. Do you think the Twins wanted to say goodbye to Rogers?

    Wait a sec wasn't Wes the author of the Twins current pitching philosophy?
  5. wabene
    Except it was widely believed that Toronto had rushed both players. SWR was 20 at AA. Martin went straight from college to AA.

    I actually think anything that limits Winder's usage now is going to pay dividends later in the season. Would be nice to have him available in September and beyond. Geez Minaya has been tossed around this year. Tough break I'm rooting for the guy.

    I love the optimism and share it. I am however more surprised by the team's success than the lack of belief. Reading this site leading up to the season cemented that for me. The recent meltdowns have tempered my surprise as I figured we would be in the hunt not running away with it. With even middling bullpen performance we could be well ahead though.

    I like the idea of trying young guys with upside in the pen instead of waiver claim types and middling vets. Just look at Duran and Jax, who is looking great and has been durable (knock on wood). Jax has been overshadowed by Duran but has actually been better this month. These two are a real success story this season. The thing with the young guys is if you have any plan on using them in the playoffs you'd better be running them out there now to get as comfortable as possible. Use Moran, for example, not Thornburg. Moran looks a little wound up to me and really needs the seasoning. We still need to add from outside regardless.

    Being only 23 it is quite possible he gets stronger and adds power to his game. From 2018-21 he was slugging over 400 in the minors peaking at 423 in 2021.

    Why use a Walkman when you can fly?!

    I too was more disappointed to lose Wells. Six eight with great numbers in the minors. He hasn't been striking out batters this year (except today of course) just five per nine, but was over ten last year and ten or eleven in the minors. (Why is this guy spelling out his numbers, trying to be analog?).

    Sometimes I need to be reminded that the baseball season truly is a marathon. Two days ago I would've sold the farm for a couple of relievers. Today we have a two game winning streak and I think we are still in first place. Gotta get those Spiders next time though.
  13. wabene
    Yes by the time I finally watched it.
  14. wabene
    Phew! I was worried it was gonna be an amoral victory.
  15. wabene
    Not sure it's a good idea to drive through Minneapolis and all those great bakeries to stop at Tobies.
  16. wabene
    You know it's weird but ya gotta wait till the end of the game to see what happened.
  17. wabene
    Wait we won?
  18. wabene
    I'll bet that at the beginning of the season Twins fans were told Buxton would play 120 games (current pace), the majority would take it.
  19. wabene
    Nice game by Ryan. He's looking stronger, good to see.
  20. wabene
    Beautiful day on the Bois Brule and come home to a walk off victory! Great summer day.
