With Kirilloff's struggles, there are rumblings that the Twins may be in trade negotiations with the Toronto Blue Jays for 1B Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

Sorry Matt but that sounds like a candidate for Common's Most preposterous statement contest.

I think someone on Bleacher Report was spitballing about where Guerrero could go, and he had us as (an unlikely) one of 10 teams.

Should Minnesota Twins swing a trade for Vlad Guerrero Jr; Bleacher Report projects a landing spot with the Twins; What would a trade look like; Is Guerrero falling off a cliff or is there still an MVP player in there?

Another outing of Lopez throwing batting practice. Everything is over the heart of the plate.

Pablo must be hiding an injury.

I heard the crowds for this series vs the Rangers were huge. Too bad we couldn't finish the sweep today.

Go Wolves!

Gladden is blaming it on a blister.

Or blame it on the cold weather.
That was the excuse used earlier for Lopez poor start.
Too cold.
Gladden seems like the last one to provide an excuse for a player's poor performance.

Well that aught to improve Umpiring by about 1000% across the league.

No doubt. He was the worst of the worst.

Did you guys see Julien get banged on the head while stealing 2nd base? That could be a disaster.

Good win. But can we go back to the days when we didn't care so much about who was closing out games?

When Lewis returns, have him play second, keep Miranda at third and send Julien down.
He continues to look at strike 3.

I was thinking the same thing. Julien needs to work some things out in St. Paul.

And right on cue, the Twins optioned Julien to AAA.

Luis Arraez now batting .341 for the year and .391 since arriving in San Diego.

Pablo Lopez 5-5 with a 4.84 ERA.

Some things never change. A massive drop off in production from Arraez' replacement.

Lopez is now 44-44 for his career with a 3.95 ERA. The pure definition of mediocre.

How is SD doing for a record and how did Miami do before that?

Last I checked it was a team game and Pablo just shut down the Astros.

Playoffs is what matters.....

He was struggling at the plate. He needs to get his confidence back.

The sad part is they kept Kyle "cant hit water if he falls out of a boat" Farmer over him.

and Margot too.

Margot benefits because he's a right handed hitting outfielder which we are short on and Rocco can't help but bench all his lefthanders when a Lefty is pitching.
