    I understand analytics has some benefit but how do you change the numbers such as not getting through the order 3 times for a pitcher if you never let them. Also does analytics say just sit back and wait for the 3 run HR and not to steal or hit and run? Rocco is VERY conservative with his managing and quite boring to watch if you ask me. He is an Ok manager not great for sure.

    Baserunning and some of the errors such as throwing to the wrong base are coaching whether that is Rocco of the minor league coaches I'm not sure. Rocco should attempt to steal more and hit and run more, Rocco basically sits back plays base to base and waits for the HR. I don't think Rocco is great at managing the pitching staff either. Taking pitchers out too soon and that puts too much pressure on the bullpen. He has to let them at least try to get through 6 or 7 innings sometimes. I guess he is a "good" manager not great not terrible.

    They would be more fun to watch if they would steal a base now and then or take an extra base.

    I think the team needs to play more aggressive baseball so they are more fun to watch. Steal more bases, hit and run etc. Maybe even take a chance that the starting pitcher goes through the opposing lineup for a third time. Waiting for them to hit a 3 run home run is boring. Don't play afraid to lose.

    Just once sign an Ace, I don't care if we have to overpay. Tired of the same old thing, if we only had an Ace.

    Just sign Rodon already. Just once I would like to see the Twins sign an ace even if they have to overpay. Now is the time, spend some of what you would have spent on Correa and use it toward a top notch pitcher. Fans are tired of always signing a previously injured pitcher hoping to make a comeback. JUST DO IT.
