  1. That's what I wanted to hear!
  2. We have 4 naturally scheduled days off coming up, soon. I agree. No extra days off for anyone from here on out. As far as I acn see, we'd only need the 5th starter twice the rest of the way. That might give us the edge we need by using just Sale, ERod, Eovaldi and Houck for almost every remaining game and having Pivetta in the pen, when he returns and is not starting those 2 games.
  3. TOR looks like the easiest schedule, but they have very few days off. 2 days off, but one double header. We have 4 days off and no double headers.
  4. Indeed, especially if TOR beats the hell out of 'em.
  5. We are the tipping point on COVID. One more key player, and we could be toast. I'm hopeful the rest will bring back a better Bogey- wrist healed and all. We have a lot of days off in the middle of September. We need to stay focused, play our best players and stop this 6th starter thing. I'd try Seabold in Pivetta's slot, but no promises we do any better than what we just tried. Maybe we don't need a 5th starter until SEA. Sale TBR ERod TBR Eovaldi TBR off Houck @CWS (+1 day rest) Sale @CWS ERod @CWS Eovaldi @SEA Seabold or Pivetta @SEA (this is past 10 days) Houck @SEA off Sale + 1 v BAL ERod + 1 v BAL Eovaldi +1 v BAL off Houck +1 vNYM Sale v NYM off ERod +1 v NYY Eovaldi +1 NYY Houck v NYY off Sale @Bal ERod @BAL Eovaldi @BAL Houck @ WSH Pivetta @WSH Sale @WSH ERod WC game
  6. TOR still has 7 games with the Twins and 7 with the O's, but the rest is very tough: 7 NYY 6 TBR They start an 8 game road trip tomorrow at NYY for 4 then 4 at BAL.
  7. It's like you want it to happen, too.
  8. Not far from the truth. 6.9 BB/0 (career 7.4) 6.6 H/9 (career 7.1) 12.2 K/9 (career 14.4!) The Ks and low hits per inning save his ass.
  9. It's kind of amazing we were in this game until the 9th with Plawecki batting 5th and Shaw 6th, plus a couple clowns at middle infield. That's not even looking at who we pitched.
  10. Good news. Hard to know, if he's at 100%, and even at 100% he walks 7 guys per 9.
  11. Golden opportunity to gain on the Yanks and Rays. This really sucks!
  12. Now, it looks obvious. At the time, I do not think it's a clear choice, no. Valdez has not been bad, and he only threw 22 pitches, yesterday. Hell, Ottavino throws that to 2 batters,
  13. Way too many. It seems like the same pattern keeps happening. A guy like Dalbec gets two nice hits and is stranded, then whe he gets up with men is scoring position he strands them. I'm not blaming Dalbec, but my point stands. Before that we'd see 3 solo HRs in a game.
  14. Actually one good-one bad is better than all our RP'ers not named Whitlock & Richards.
  15. It's too many lose-lose choices Cora has to make. It's actually amazing how many lose-lose choices he made, today that actually worked, and then when the last one fails, it's all on Cora.
  16. What best relievers? There is only one: Whitlock. Sure, he could have brought him in down 1, but that is certainly not the clear call, until after you see Valdez implode.
  17. You really think that? We were using garbage pitchers all game, and now it's bringing in Valdez that's Cora's fault? True, he threw 22 pitches, yesterday, but anything this guy does, he can't win.
  18. 2 outs, bottom of the ninth, Barndon Lowe walks. PR'er Margot steals 2B, Franco with an IF single moves Margot to 3B. Nelson Cruz ends the game with a... ... fly out to CF! Twins beat the Rays 6-5!
  19. The tides always turn.
  20. Getting Robles was pure genius! Thanks Bloom!
  21. MIN up on Rays in the 9th!
  22. BAL up 8-7 on Yanks in 7th! MIN still threatening in 9th as they tied the Rays! Make this a trifecta!
  23. ...and the Twins tied the Rays.
