Wilbur Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Good riddance to Gary Sanchez at the end of the year. Wow did he not have his best moments as a catcher when it counted. You try and backhand an offspeed pitch from Duran? How many two strike counts is he calling for fastballs? The 0-2 pitch in literally the same spot as the previous pitch that tied the game is inexcusable. Double header tomorrow.....could be buried by the end of the day.

SWSiouxMN Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 That was the one they needed, if they took this one they could have been in good shape in the series. Ober was good tonight. They really need both games from the double header.... one won't be enough. If they don't sweep the DH tomorrow, pull the plug on the season.

nodakvindy Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 You knew it wasn't going to be the season when pitching coach leaves mid year for LSU. That week was when they fell apart in the other series in Cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Its all over but the crying for the Twins. Since it is over, they should throw a bone to Woods-Richardson and call him up for a couple of starts to end the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also time to shut some guys down, healthy or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Get Roger Dorn back into a dugout. Can't get worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I think that if Rocco goes, it will be a full house cleaning as the Boy Wonders will go with him. Wonder if one of them might read the tea leaves and try to go elsewhere while their stock is still decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 First sweep of the season for the Royals I'm told. I haven't verified it, but thankfully the Twins put up a fight with the season on the line. They simply can't have any important arms pitch the rest of the season. Ryan, Duran, Jax.....In all honesty if they just let Pagan pitch the rest of the season I'd be okay with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Although the season has been over for a while. There are still two reasons to pay attention. Woods-Richardson is pitching tomorrow Arraez could win a batting title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the guy run tonight, it's ridiculous. Most guys would already be on the IL. IDGAF if they whine about his batting title if he doesn't play the last few games. He deserves it for how well he hit over the majority of the season. Waiting for him to tear that hammy that is just killing him.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxScore Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Twins getting a "fresh look" this offseason. I'm not a huge fan of what the current white and grey uniforms are so I'll be interested to see what they do there. HAVE to keep the powder blue look in the rotation and wear them more! https://www.mlb.com/news/twins-plan-brand-refresh-of-uniforms-logos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
