June 24, 20179 yr Nice to see Dozier taking it to right. Soon they will adjust and he can start hitting bombs again.

June 24, 20179 yr Well. If the Twins do hang on to win, they will need to get 9 more outs (12 total) from the pen. Probably from at least 3 different relievers. Meanwhile, the Indians will likely only need 7 from theirs. Most likely from one or two guys. This is how you get an overworked bullpen. The Twins need to get more innings out of their starters.
June 24, 20179 yr Like Mejia's stuff overall. Has the build to suggest stamina as long as he keeps things under control. Learns to economize/learn the further nuances of pitching, I think he's going to be OK. #3 capable? Maybe. But just a good #4 is acceptable.
June 24, 20179 yr Author How was Buxton's bunt?I just got the gameday view of things... Average bunt... His speed made it work. Bauer could have had him but he threw it inside the bag and Santana couldn't reach across Buxton to catch it.
June 24, 20179 yr Yes, a semi-serious post may violate one of the unwritten rules of baseball game threads, but I want to say that I'm glad the FO didn't trade Dozier for Jose DL.

June 24, 20179 yr Going back to the original and more important topic...as someone born and raised initially in South Dakota, who has lived most of his life in Nebraska, and who has often visited Kansas, I can offer my own perspective. Northern SD may be green, but is probably as desolate in regard to traffic or civilization than anywhere but Wyoming and the desert states. Nebraska is miles and miles of flat and fields with windbreaks of trees. Kansas is far, far ahead of both states in regard to rusted automobiles off the road and anti-abortion signs. Just saying.
June 24, 20179 yr Yes, a semi-serious post may violate one of the unwritten rules of baseball game threads, but I want to say that I'm glad the FO didn't trade Dozier for Jose DL. Or Julio Urias.... Could be having career ending surgery
June 24, 20179 yr Yes, a semi-serious post may violate one of the unwritten rules of baseball game threads, but I want to say that I'm glad the FO didn't trade Dozier for Jose DL.I am fine with it too. And what else they were offered will always remain "the one that got away..." Go ahead. Unwritten rules apparently weren't made to be not broken. Did i fix it good?
June 24, 20179 yr I like Dick Bremer, but he's as washed up as Bert. Way to much effort to tell a story badly.

And these were moving cars Edited June 24, 20179 yr by Jerr
June 24, 20179 yr The google woman who lives in my new smart phone seems thrilled that the Twins are winning. I wonder if she is programmed that way or is actually a Twins fan.
June 24, 20179 yr Or Julio Urias.... Could be having career ending surgery Saw that today. Urias out 12-14 months, minimum. Wow.
June 24, 20179 yr Author 20 pitches in 2 IP for Duffey. Do you risk a 3rd inning? I would Players are like a razor... You should use them when they are sharp.
June 24, 20179 yr I am fine with it too. And what else they were offered will always remain "the one that got away..."Go ahead. Unwritten rules apparently weren't made to be not broken.Did i fix it good?Yes, your answer was not hard to not misunderstand.
June 24, 20179 yr The google woman who lives in my new smart phone seems thrilled that the Twins are winning. I wonder if she is programmed that way or is actually a Twins fan.If she asks for a credit card number and offers to call you, just say NO!
June 24, 20179 yr The google woman who lives in my new smart phone seems thrilled that the Twins are winning. I wonder if she is programmed that way or is actually a Twins fan.How do you know "she" is thrilled??????
June 24, 20179 yr After hearing each guest broadcasters multiple times now I'm going to have to say LaTroy Hawkins is my favorite. Wouldn't mind him getting the full time gig if Bert or Dick ever leaves.
June 24, 20179 yr That Latroy Hawkins in the booth? Like what I hear so far after just tuning in. I like LaTroy in the booth too, he's good. I think he talks over the game a bit too much sometimes...he's not yet comfortable with those silent moments. But he's getting there!
June 24, 20179 yr After hearing each guest broadcasters multiple times now I'm going to have to say LaTroy Hawkins is my favorite. Wouldn't mind him getting the full time gig if Bert or Dick ever leaves. How about Hawkins as the play-by-play man and Hunter as the color guy? That would be a fun broadcast team! Frankly I'd rather have Hunter managing the team than in the booth. Hopefully next year...
June 24, 20179 yr After hearing each guest broadcasters multiple times now I'm going to have to say LaTroy Hawkins is my favorite. Wouldn't mind him getting the full time gig if Bert or Dick ever leaves.Think I'd rather sign him and get him ready for the bullpen for a second half run! Lol
June 24, 20179 yr How do you know "she" is thrilled??????She sounds very enthusiastic when she announces that the Twins are "leading".
