He's Brad's favorite target, but if Correa, Buxton and Kepler were as productive as Gallo to this point, the Twins would have scored more runs.

I did my part for Correa. Can’t blame me. A few months ago flying to MSP from Houston first class I switched seats with Correa so he could sit with his wife.

I tend to agree. It’s obvious a change is needed at hitting coach. The meeting probably consisted of “Screw this guy. He’s messing us up.” So many players hitting below their career numbers.

Twins wins overcome Rocco's ineptitude.

Gleeman had a note on the PH obsession

as expected, a massive failure

91 PH before last night
2 homers
26th ranked OPS
.169

Take Solano out (6-19

.125
brilliant strategist

It's as much about the player as it is about the hitting coach. The approach at the plate is awful. Home runs mean bigger contracts. Both have a hand in awful.

Great. He'll have 10 strikeouts before his next one, many of which will come with runners in scoring position. Enjoy all of those as well.

Gallo OPS of .783 is the second highest on the team. We have three starters and a couple of key bench players who are in the .500's and.600's. Our $30M SS just inched over .700. Gallo's strikeouts are far from the biggest offensive problem on the team.

Weird. One of the best pitching staffs in the NL which is why they traded one of their best pitchers for Arreaz.

Ober proves the...even a blind squirrel can find a nut...addage for the Falvine regime when it comes to drafting pitchers.
