Wilbur

I really like the Fulmer acquisition. Can work front end or the end of the game like what we saw last night. Get 5 from the underperforming pitching staff, and then go Fulmer, Jax, Duran, Lopez. Pagan can't pitch in a close game that they are leading. Behind a run or two, fine.....but 1-0 in the 6th inning has to be Fulmer/Jax/Thielbar every time.

I turned away for a few moments and then the game was over. My kind of closer.

Such is the Twins.....trade for a bunch of arms and then a guy who has been reliable let's one slip while Pagan and Smith have clean sheets. The injuries are devastating right now...Buck, Kepler, Kiriloff, Larnach. If Buxton goes on the IL that means that your outfield going forward is Cave, Gordon, Celistino or Contreras? Maybe Gio can play left field?

People.....people..... Hain-Jammer-Sendo That's the Tweet.

2023 Rotation: Mahle, Gray, Ryan, Maeda.....TBA No more Archer or Bundy.....sigh.... With the likelihood that Correa leaves they can get a rotation arm and have an actual rotation.

If they can figure out a way to get a 6-7th inning guy now to compliment Jax..... 6. TBA/Duffey 7. Jax 8. Duran 9. Lopez Pagan now officially a throw away game arm. No need to pitch when the game is close.

I'm told an announcement is coming......the anticipation I tell ya.... Big win last night too.

Got a closer, so I'll eat crow. I'll take a second helping if they are able to get themselves a starting pitcher.....fingers crossed.....

Lot of great opinions I've read so far. I was just at the Herb Brooks Arena in St. Cloud and I was told so many things wrong with that rink (boards are original, lighting, seating, bathrooms, etc)..... Got a chance to walk on the ice and stand in the opposing goaltender's crease. Looked to my right, and the student section is right on top of you.....right where it's supposed to be.

I hate hearing that the Twins are "super aggressive" in the trade market only to be played for a fool when the deadline ends and nothing happens when "the right deal" wasn't out there.

Houston wants an outfielder. How about Kepler for Odorizzi?

With the feeder program having as many kids as it does I can't imagine Horace not having a team. That being said you are now taking from Sheyenne for Horace so inevitably WF will have a tough time getting a team to the state tournament.

Now doesn't the rule say that any part of the ball above the hole means it's not a "holed" ball?

I believe that Century and Legacy won't be together in boys hockey. Three boys teams and two girls teams in the capital.

Trade Gio, or trade Sano? Not sure if you can get a pitcher back for either. Other than Arraez, Miranda, Buxton, Duran, Polanco, Ryan, I think everyone is on the table in possible trade talks. I still have this imaginary hope that they could get something for Kepler.

No, and $400 plus according to young goaltenders that I walk past time and again. I challenge a UND goaltender to go old school with the KG old Cooper helmet and throat protector. The pain of getting hit with a puck with one of those is temporary, I promise.....

How did DeRidder look? Tough to get a good look though from early scrimmages when the goalies get hung out to dry.

Second season begins on.....a Saturday? Boy, maybe could have played one of those 5 games in Detroit from earlier in the year this Friday. Anyways, away we go on what should be an entertaining ride through September. Final Central Standings Predictions: 1. White Sox 2. Twins 3. Guardians 4. Tigers 5. Royals I believe whomever wins the division will do so with less than 90 wins.

Blake to Hoogste.....Blake to Gaber......scores!!!!!!! Barring any injury I think Gaber ends up a Hobey finalist and All American this season. Is a 60 point season possible for him, or is the NCHC to good defensively to allow that type of year to happen? Brink was close last year with 57.

I was happy to see Cam win it. Heart was pulling for Young, but it was fun to watch the round. Now reports are coming in that the Saudi's are offering him 90 million to come over to LIV. Not sure I could turn down that kind of money, but I didn't just win the British open and have a bright future ahead of me on the course.

Completely agree. The game has just evolved to where St. Andrew's can't contain these guys that can kill the ball. Augusta changed up their course because the scores were getting too obsurd, and if the weather is kind to these guys you'll have a champion tomorrow shooting 20 plus under par. I'm a hack, but 18 playing at 354 yards with an impossible to miss fairway would be a driver and a wedge before a three put.

How many times have the Twins had a guy on third this year with no outs and not get him in? Gray has just been slapped around lately. Maybe the break will help him out.

No Giolito either. Take advantage of it Twins. Three of four would be huge.

Great win for the guys today. Good pitching performance by Ryan, Thielbar, Jax, and Duran. Wish Ryan could have went longer, but a win is a win.
