yes ...

wow ... what a game! That was gooooood!!!

There were a couple of deep fly outs, too ... but ... still routine, as you said

I can't believe people think Astudillo is a better catcher ... I mean ... <no words, looks Heavenward>

We actually never took it out ... that's jinx talk when you talk about it until it's all over

When you listen to other announcers, he's probably middle of the pack ... i couldn't stand listening to the Cubs announcers last week ... was AWEFUL

um ... can we please not go there?

yeah ... I'm in a different room from the telly ... could hear it there, too

yeah ... not sure I see Tortuga on this roster after the season ... Kepler is 50-50

It would be for someone who has been pitching on the ML team all year ...

Who are you talking about now?

We're pretending we don't see it ...

And that's how it's done ... good job Refsnyder and Gordon!

It's all in the conditioner

Yeah ... he has great hair ... both on his head and on his face

Hair on which dude?

I was an advocate to trading him during the offseason after the 2019 season ... I think his value was highest then. That offseason I wanted to trade Arraez, move Polanco to 2nd and sign a SS ... can't remember who was available then. <shrug> It is what it is. I think he could get traded this offseason, but we'll see.

That was some stretch by Sano.

lol ... what the heck did I just watch?? hahaha

I think only 2 are certain as of right now ... Ober and Ryan ... but ... depends on the rest of the year and ST. Even though Gant has done ... respectably okay ... I don't see him starting next year. I would have added Winder, maybe, to your list ... I think he has the same chance as some you have on there (i.e. Balazovic and Strotman ... neither of whom I see beginning the season in the Twins rotation, along with Winder). Bottom line ... I can be a cynic and say 4. But, honestly, I just don't know.

It's getting to the point that I'm even looking forward to Gant pitching! I just gant stand it! Ober and out!

And, not to mention, made the infield defense worse. I mean ... Drew Maggi? Of the 3 the poster mentioned who could cover SS and 2B ... uhhhhhh ... I'd be upset if we spent that kind of money on pitching and then put that behind them. I mean, yeah, we need good pitching, but we also need to field a decent team.

Was that really scored a GS? I would think it was a triple, and then he advanced to home on the throwing error? (Guess I could look it up)

Yeah ... because that's a legit comparison. Ober was still a prospect last year and didn't pitch last year. This is his first experience in the majors and Robbie Ray is a veteran pitcher. Why don't you try comparing what Ray did in his first year in the majors? That might tell a different story.

BUXTON!!!! Hoping this triggers a nice run for Bux
