    Somebody needs to give them a "this is not inevitable" speech here.

    How secure is a 3 run lead. Hmm, with their pen? Hope the management are taking notes tonite.

    Whaddaya know, another dramatic game 163 with the Twins. Left they were leading 3-0, come back losing 5-4. I fear that game ending BP in NY. Well, play the damn game and see what happens. Just saw the Buxton catch - hsmf

    A stunned silence falls on Yankee Stadium....

    Most improved: Berrios. He was worse than awful last season. Berrios 2016: 3-7, ERA 8.02, 74 hits in 58 innings Berrios 2017: 14-8, ERA 3.89, 131 hits in 145 innings. That is a complete turnaround. Buxton's numbers are better, but not to that degree: Buxton 2016: .225 BA, 10 HR, 38 RBI, .714 ops. Buxton 2017: .253 BA, 16 HR, 51 RBI, .728 ops, in about 160 more at bats.

    Belisle looks like he's chewing on a dog dump

    Like to see Duffey working the fastball. Free innings to try something new.

    Hell of a wild card to be able to play. They should let him PH against the Tiger pen a couple times just to get that awkwardness out of the way. We have pinch runners galore if he actually gets a hit.

    You do if out of the 14 they are the handful you can actually count on.

    That 82nd win is pretty special: return to winning baseball, relevance, possibly the post-season, the whole shebang.
  11. Monkeypaws
    Eephus, that is the exact example I was gonna put out there. Tim Young scored the overtime winner that broke the curse in the playoffs, and the Stars rarely lost there again.

    Love the joy a foul ball brings to a child !

    Nice numbers from Vasquez and Lujan. They would have popped my eyes coming from 19 year olds, but from 23 year olds, guys above average league age, not so much. Still, efficiency should be rewarded.
  14. Monkeypaws
    I don't like retiring numbers. A team hall of fame is sufficient. Especially the single digit numbers!

    Remind what kind of stuff Littell has plz. Like his profile

    TD = #1. Bernardino deserves more love.
  17. Monkeypaws
    Yet they do try them in the end.

    Greatness is found on the scrapheap occasionally. Managing assets is what GMs do. This was supposed to be a rebuilding year, and yet here the Twinkies are in the midst of a race. Falvey and Levine haven't even had a year in place, yet look at the bloody difference!
  19. Monkeypaws
    Looks like total asset management to me. Falvine look like a patient bunch, and they weigh out all their options to the max. I like the efficiency approach. Once this organization becomes theirs, I expect greatness. Smart guys.
  20. Monkeypaws
    Slegers - he really needs to be in the plans for 2018
  21. Monkeypaws
    I just like to see an organization give guys like, Goodrum,, Sleger, Curtiss, Garver, Jorge, etc a chance.
  22. Monkeypaws
    Hurrah! Like to see loyalty and perseverance rewarded. 2nd rounder makes it all the way to the big leagues. Twin bench has a lot of that versatility right now.
  23. Monkeypaws
    Reusse and Souhan can write some nice nostalgia pieces from time to time. Take them seriously?! Couch potatoes do not great players or coaches make. Doom and gloom from columnists like them and Tom Powers are part and parcel of the old Minnesota defeatist sports complex that waaaay to many fans buy into..
  24. Monkeypaws
    Yeah I thought he was headed for thoracic outlet. And yeah, Rooker is looking like the real deal.
  25. Monkeypaws
    The magic isn't in the method, but the results. Wild card in August as opposed to on the way to 100 losses. Maybe the current regime has better data on our scrap heap finds than TR ever had, or knew what to do with. Just a guess.
