  1. No score after 1. Thought the Swiss had a slight edge in play
  2. I’ve always been told it’s their game. Hell I’d love to get a hockey fix in august especially the World Juniors
  3. Canada all over Slovakia 5-0 early in the second Finland 4 Czechs 3 in a shootout USA vs the Swiss later tonight
  4. It’s strange for sure. You’d think Carson was just a terrible human being. Anyhoo let them stick their chests out and continue to hate. Nothing you or I can do about it
  5. No doubt. He would of scored on Gordon’s grounder to second in the next at bat
  6. What else could Sanchez do there on that play at home. Just need to get rid of that rule https://bleacherreport.com/post/minnesota-twins/b657825c-f865-49f9-a397-02549995d9d2
  7. But let’s bring him out there in a 1-0 game. He’s nothing but a garbage time reliever if even that
  8. Nice debut by Lopez. 7 pitch save in the Twins 4-1 win over the Tigers today
  9. Minnesota Twins get: RHP Jorge Lopez Hard-throwing righties Jhoan Duran and Griffin Jax have put on a show for the Twins this season, but their bullpen as a whole ranks second-to-last in fWAR. As fixes for this depth problem go, it doesn't get much better than Lopez. Armed with a devastating sinker that sits in the high 90s, he's accumulated both strikeouts (27.6 K%) and ground balls (60.0 GB%) amid an All-Star breakout in 2022. What's more, the 29-year-old is under club control through 2024. So while the Twins paid a hefty price to get Lopez, making him part of a three-headed relief monster for two-plus years is worth it. Grade: A Baltimore Orioles get: LHP Cade Povich, LHP Juan Rojas, RHP Yennier Cano, RHP Juan Nunez You'd never know the Orioles are 52-51 and only 2.5 games out of a playoff spot. First, it was Trey Mancini on Monday, and now they've willingly surrendered their ace closer. Cynical, to say the least. On the plus side, the Orioles did well to get pitching depth back from Minnesota. Though we had their farm system ranked at No. 1 in the majors coming out of the 2022 draft, it was more loaded with bats than with arms. The big prize here is Povich, a 6'3", 185-pound lefty who's struck out 12.8 batters per nine innings since turning pro after going to the Twins in the third round of the 2021 draft. Of the other three hurlers in this package, the 28-year-old Cano had a dominant career in Cuba and possesses the mid-90s heat and sharp slider to potentially become a late-inning relief weapon. Grade: B
  10. As do I. Being I’m his uncle and seeing how some folks on here want him to fail is beyond me. But whatever makes one puff out his chest and enjoy watching him struggle. Obviously I’ll still support him regardless of how this season goes
  11. They truly are great fans. Was at a game when Erstad was their punter, the year they were National Champs
  12. So did you get a free pass?
  13. Archer with a terrible outing today. They need pitching bad
  14. You are right about that. Just talked to Kirkeby’s dad and he said she got a full ride there. Bemidji St is where Kirkeby could play although they are still getting a few other offers out East
  15. Ah I have heard of this. Getting old sucks. Thanks Sicatoka
