At least not when they play bottom feeders like St. Louis, Arizona and Detroit.

Yeah, at least they're winning those games

Arizona doesn't belong in the same sentence as St Louis and Detroit....still over .500.

Tim likes to bend things to fit his narrative. I had the same thought as you, Phil, but I was gonna let it slide because I chalked it up to Tim being Tim.

Is this a joke? Hadn't heard anything about it until Barreiro mentioned it today.

He's likely to opt out of his contract and get a bigger contract than the Twins will offer.

Wallner has a cannon. He was clocked at 100 mph on a throw home. Might have gotten the runner if Polanco hadn't cut it off.

Yeah. I know. But I'm still seeing teams run on him a lot. Eventually they will pay.

I am more worried how much teams are running on our catchers...

Vazquez is throwing out runners at league average. Jeffers is above league average.

Maybe Arizona isn't that bad then?

Horrible FA signing.

2 more years at 10 million a season

Camargo is probably ready at AAA, and they went and signed this turd.

44 homers in last 2 seasons, 25 between AA and AAA this year.
Won't play much in the bigs at 2nd and third with all the middle infielders the Twins have.

There is no reason, other than Rocco's stupidity, for Jeffers to be splitting time with Vazquez.

I so hate the organization, the Pohlad snot nosed kids (Jim and his brothers and nephew), Falvine, Rocco and the pathetic minor league development and scouting team.
Pathetic group more concerned with concession options at Target Field than fielding a team that can win a playoff game.

Dude rarely implodes. Ober has some sort of arm issue. Keuchel is likely Game 4, and then if Game 5 is necessary, you come back with trusty Pablo Lopez. I like this team.
