X Ray negative to Sano. Called a bruise at this time. Knowing our medical team and luck, he will probably need a tourniquet by midnight.

What could Sano have done? All he did was take a walk?

Got hurt sliding into 2nd base.

I'm pretty sure Dick just admitted that he and Latroy aren't orthopedic surgeons ... I don't know which way is up now. 

 

All these years. All the lies. How can I ever trust again?

Nah, they'll wait until  the day before spring training and then they'll give him a Tommy John surgery.

On a different topic:

 

How did Stewart play pointy-ball with an insulin pump in his hip pocket? Did that have something to do with him choosing baseball?

Why the **** is Grossman batting cleanup again?

After two years this is the talent situation Falvine have wheeled and dealed the Twins into.

 

Solid work, don’t you think?

I can’t believe this many of you are still watching. I see on Twitter sano got carted off for a boo boo leg. And I also see the opener thing is going awesome! If PM isn’t fired within the next month, he should disclose the nude photos he has of ownership.

I like LaTroys confidence. 

 

"Well, if we do this a whole bunch of times, I bet we can get 2 or 3 of them where the results aren't catastrophic and we can use those to justify the 10 times it was a complete failure"

That was nice 1B play by Joe- first he laid out for that hot shot, then a nonchalant over-the-shoulder catch. That he didn't win the Gold Glove last year was a crime.

 

I'm really gonna miss him if he goes.

 

Man, what coulda been, if not for those nasty concussions for him and Morneau...

I normally don't argue with my elders . But if the MOY can see his way to start Giminez YET AGAIN, I am sure he could easily hit RG fourth even if he had JD Martiniez on the roster. Or it could be our punishment for believing analytics when they tell us batting lineups don't matter. .

I imagine (or hope) that a lot of the people watching are like me and its more or less background tv when we suck this bad.

Heh... it's almost like hate-watching at this point. But I guess there's still a thread of Twinkie-hope in there somewhere.

 

And, for the love of God, please don't let MoY release those photos!!

He's a building block for the future Chief.

I’ll check my phone to follow the score, but even though I’m laying around doing nothing, I refuse to watch this product for any more than a few minutes. They don’t give the effort, then it’s not worth my time.

At this point, it appears that PM and ownership have a toxic relationship and one side is just trying to stick it to the other. Reminds me of every relationship I’ve been in.

Okay, ISH! Yeah unreally want to see that? I dont.

His continued presence as our manager will indicate that he has some sort of blackmail against the dynamic duo

At this rate we're going to let Bregman surpass Escobar's lead for doubles!

 

(just checked: they're tied at 45 now!)

I really hope that was his exact quote.

I am beginning to believe that the secret to the "starter" philosophy is to have good pitchers. Oddly that seems to be the secret to having good baseball teams. My experience is that if you put a poor pitcher in, no matter the inning, he is likely still a poor pitcher?

I was wondering kind of the same thing. Like who is MoY giving the finger to with these lineups and such? It can't only be to me...

No, Dick, the idea of ALL pitching - opener, primary, closer - is to throw scoreless innings.

 

My God, when they clean house in the dugout, I hope it carries up to the broadcast booth.

I may have taken some liberties

Occam's razor, baby...

I have believed that Molitor and Falvine are not on the same page for two years. Molitor got shoved up Falvines posterior, and any chance they had of Pohlad giving the OK to a change went out the window with that dizzy MOY award.

Can you head up the Twins analytics team?

Looking back on everything, I think it would have been better had the club not made the playoffs last year. For many reasons.

I actually think the wacky lineups are the result of “other info”. This whole 3 groups of 3 thing. Hence Grossman is the lead off hotter for the second group of 3. I’m guessing Molly isn’t a fan but may not have a choice

 

Yeah, but if Stewart goes 5 shutout innings, they're going to use it to say "see, told you Tampa Bay is onto something."

 

Can I count this as a prediction of Stewart going 5 shutout innings? I think I'm going to.

Please tell me this isn't a real thing.
