Game Recap: Athletics 13, Twins 12
Honestly, cave needs to be DFA, Kiriloff needs to come up, stop using Rogers in the middle innings. This team is a dumpster fire

Article: Twins Game Recap (7/20): Twins Offense and Bullpen Can’t Do Enough to Secure the Win
This game made me sick, only Game I’ve been able to attend. Spent good money on tickets/hotel/food. Just a punch to the guy that really leaves a sour taste. Team just feels flat and walking out of target field felt like leaving game 2 of the ALDS in 2010 just a fan base that always comes back only to get knocked down time and time again. I’ve been very optimistic all year even with the division lead shrinking but tonight might of knocked me back to reality, twins fans just can’t have nice things.

Article: Standing Pat as a Strategy
I don't necessarily mind the strategy, and I think part of the strategy is to see how "their" prospects progress. The wave of Buxton, Sano, and Kepler has been a disappointment save for a few month of 2017. However, I do lament that this "rebuild" is going on year 9 and it seems like we are always at the same spot each offseason. Not quite ready to seriously contend, but too much promise to blow things up. I wish their supplemental moves weren't so subtle, such as one year deals for guys needing a rebound. Someone like Andrew McCutchen I think would be a great fit. A clear leader, a mentor for the young outfielders (especially Buxton) and it would give the team so credibility league wide. Perhaps working a trade for Carlos Santana would be a good move as well, and I think that could be done by moving Jake Cave and a prospect or two.
