Definitely want to see more from Poppen ... He was overthrowing and definitely didn't have the Smeltzer ability to stay cool in his debut, but 95-97 with late movement will play at this level, if harnessed. Not a big fan of Arraez at SS .... Polanco got his day off, so I hope he can just play all the games at the 6 until Adrianza or Gonzalez return. Sano needs a day off. Give Arraez a turn at 3rd tonight @ KC and see how he looks there. Baldelli definitely favored rest over results in this rubber match. It's a long season, and you can't argue with the results so far, but now the double-digit lead is gone. This team needs to go down to KC and come back with 3-4 wins, because it will be right back to a series with a contender when they return.

Also 12 Ks to 1 BB .... I still want some moves to shore it up, but there are some promising options .... Duffey and Littell definitely need longer looks

Cora's a punk ... Even if you don't agree with a call, you don't attempt to assault the umpires after the game .... He should be suspended .... Apology is a cop out ... Learn the rules .... I can guarantee Baldelli would never behave that way

I didn't like the Polanco bunt, mostly because I though Brewer was the pitcher to attack and he doesn't have the best control. However, given the game situation, it's still a justifiable play. It was well executed. Rosario got himself out against Brewer. I would almost bet that the mound visit involved something along the lines of "Don't give this guy anything to hit" .... I can't blame Eddie for trying to get the big hit because that's what he does and he has, but patience in that PA could have loaded the bases for Cron against a bad control pitcher with a lot of pressure on him. The Parker results were as expected. That 0-2 pitch to Boegarts was just dumb. Berrios is a rock. He has got to be a contract priority soon. Don't let him get away like Johan. I just don't understand the Cruz bashing. He's been a godsend to this lineup. It's a round ball and a round bat ... You will get the bad spin. I'd take Cruz in that PA 10 of the next 10 times.

To each his own on this one .... MLB should be sure to educate the players, because there can obviously be consequences. We're all going to die. I wouldn't choose salivary gland cancer as my way out, but that's just me. I don't like people telling me what to do, so I wouldn't support legislation. However, if a team or league wants to ban smokeless tobacco, I think it's within reason for them to do that. Nobody is holding a gun to anyone's head saying you have to play for this team or league.

MMMordabito replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Part of the reason the Twins are doing so well is the cohesiveness as a team. The last thing they need is some short fuse like Stroman. -

Article: Craig Kimbrel and Risk Tolerance
MMMordabito replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
How about Shane Greene? He's under control in 2020 too. I like some guys like Trevor Gott and Amir Garrett as well, but they are under control for so long that I think the price will be pretty high. -
I would want it to be an above value offer for him .... I wouldn't want him to be a throw in .... The thing with Cave is that he is basically a plug-and-play if any of the big three go down .... Obviously, Gonzalez fills in as the fourth right now, but his value would be lower if he was forced to be a starting OF and not available to swiss-army around the field ... I also think Cave is a better OF than Marwin (didn't check if numbers back that up)

That type of hitting stance always makes me raise an eyebrow as well, but some have had success. Alex Rios comes to mind. Our own Marwin Gonzalez holds that bat pretty low as a lefty as well.
