The Twins kick off a 3-game series in Seattle tonight and I’m going to be serious for once in my life. I’d like everyone’s attention as I ask for assistance and cooperation from all in order to achie

Cleveland's lineup and bullpen just aren't as good as they were. That starting pitching is still really good but they're overrated. Twins have had just about everything go wrong and they're in it. The

Garver is just... not good behind the plate.

When I coached little league we had a Dodgers' pitcher come teach all of the coaches about how to teach kids how to pitch. He asked for volunteers to catch him and my hand went up first.

 

Later he told me that he was throwing "only" about 80 MPH. To me it seemed a lot faster. Catching is not easy.

MLB Network talking about how Hanley Ramirez would fit in with the Twins.  I wouldn't mind it.

 

If the concussion like symptoms that Mauer is having look like they might keep him out for an extended stretch I could see Ramirez as being a good option (on a minimum contract, not claimed off waivers).

Normally, the flags are red enough to pass but the Twins do need to consider the possibility as Right Hander insurance in case Sano and Buxton don't snap out of it.

I agree with the signing of Hanley if Mauer is in fact out for a while. He is a RHB that would be worth it on the league min. Crazy to see how the mighty have fallen. I remember back around 2008 my dad said the only player he would pick up the phone for on a Joe Mauer trade is Hanley.

It's the hardest job on the field.

 

But Garver is still pretty bad at it.
