  1. I love joining in booing the opposing team. It is a way to rally around your team with other fans. The Yankees, the Dirty Sox, yeah baby fun times in the stands. Booing your own team? Now you are just that loud mouthed jerky guy in the stands. I'll admit sometimes it kinda funny, but not sure I want to be that guy.
  2. His interviews are about as dispassionate as you can get with short answers amounting to, ” I feel fine". Dan Hayes reported that last year the Twins wanted him to be more forthright about how he was feeling, to nip any small problem in the bud. Some of that is just the result of a new training staff that is trying to focus on better communication.
  3. I don't know if I'd call the Mahle trade a mistake, but as was posted above even though they were in first place, they weren't a contender. CES was the one who really caught my eye with his bat in the minors, so that hurts. Steer and Hajar were two I was watching as well. This does sting and Mahle not being forthcoming with his status hasn't helped.
  4. I agree he needs a reset. What I was talking about was many players struggle and the other poster illustrated this with a factual comparison between Miranda and Cuddy.
  5. That wasn't optimism, it was facts.
  6. If you blocked the posters who posted exclusively negative takes, there would be nothing to read. There was nothing mentioned about the Twins good pitching effort. Just sayin. I'm usually on DVR and behind the live feed so I can FF commercials. I don't usually participate. If I was live I would've mentioned the pitching, you know mix it up and add something positive.
  7. No it's not. You predicted that the twins would be under 500 after that tough stretch and you were wrong. So it follows a legitimate answer would be to state that you were wrong with your prior dire prediction, but instead you evaded. I hope you are wrong again because I want this team to do well.
  8. Yeah I don't know, but I hope they do well. There I simply answered the question. You have not answered yet. You answered with a question.
  9. I'm an hour behind, but I find it interesting that here in the 8th inning I still haven't seen one comment mentioning how well Ryan pitched after the unfortunate start.
  10. You said that before the Yankees, Astros and both Sox were on deck. How'd that go?
  11. Kirilloff has been saying the wrist is almost back to where it was pre-injury. Let's hope so. His bat has tons of potential and I think he's ready. This was the system's most can't miss hit tool. Here's hoping he gets off to a good start and then the boys can work on getting him to loosen up a little, lol.
  12. The defense was brutal. That was not coaching, that was piss poor execution.
  13. Damn. Glad Alcala is back up. He's got a chance in spite of that slider. The infield defense needs a boost, hopefully AK and Farmer will provide.
  14. Paddack himself said he didn't expect to return this year. My guess would be if we see him at all it will be very late in the season or post-season and it will be in the pen.
  15. Knock on wood, the encouraging aspect of Ober's litany of injuries is that they haven't been arm or shoulder related. Hip, groin etc. If this guy stays healthy I see a really good starter who could keep improving.
  16. That might be his strategy to distract opponents in the box, yo.
  17. Ober looked great tonight. He thinks he belongs.
  18. Mr Android admitting this Apple TV thing is kinda cool. Correa mic'd up and makes the play to end the inning. Very smooth
  19. It's a nice feeling having competent starting pitching
