@tlschwerz Here’s why the Twins collapsed: Buxton injured in the 2nd half (no production), Ryan injured in 2nd half (no production), Lewis and Larnach virtually nothing in August. Tom Pohlad has no effect on that!!
@jzulgad Appears to me it’s the problem is pitching and not having a 21 year old outfielder who probably wasn’t going to play every day when Buxton was in the lineup. Looming work stoppage also had to play a role in the decision.
@Skolney79@tlschwerz I hate to defend the Pohlad’s as they have made questionable decisions in my opinion but Ted constantly blaming everything on ownership is ridiculous. This team appears to moving forward and Zoll, Shelton and Tom Pohlad have been a part of that. Ted is exhausting!
@BauerOutage@Twins Sign Bauer for minimal 💵, there isn’t an MLB pitching staff that could use more help!! Potential for improvement of your staff with minimal cost to ownership!!
@tlschwerz Would have rather had Clemens hit into a double play or even strike out? Cincinnati used a sacrifice bunt in the 9th inning Saturday which led to their winning run. Old time fundamental baseball still can help win games at times.
@KreppMatt Do you expect Brooks Lee to be serviceable at Shortstop? If not the Twins will need to move on from either him, Royce Lewis or Luke Keashall in the near future. I think Keashall is the best hitter but worst defender.
@TwinsAlmanac Terry, Tom, Doug Palmer and Jeff Schugel all from New Ulm were drafted in the same year. They were the core of the 1st New Ulm Legion team to make the Legion World Series in Yakima, WA and also led the 1980 New Ulm Kaiserhoff to a Class BMinnesota State Amateur Title!
