Time for baldelli and Julien to kick rocks and leave after yesterdays embaresement
Please do some more Extra Innings after the games..even a couple games a week. Please
I got a tinfoil hat trade deadline hypothesis. the front office is playing for the six spot… 😅😅
I agree with Declan about Wallner. Should have left him in there to hit and how is he going to get better against lefties?
Fans are angry, what's happening is predictable. In fact, we may be watching a foreseeable implosion.
How can Wallner fix his swing against Lefties- if they don’t leave him in?
What no one is talking about is the one thing Farmer CAN do is bunt. With Lewis on 3rd, TK or Gardy or Molly would have called for a squeeze bunt.
Why is there such a temptation to put Kyle Farmer in.
Phil, your apologies for pinching hitting Farmer are nauseating. Declan and Judd are absolutely right.
Kepler will now be a ghost, not on the IL but unwilling to play, sitting on the bench taking up a roster spot that could be used for a pinch hitter, pinch runner or defensive player.
Time to get Brooks Lee back! ASAP! And Correa needs to play through the pain! Buxton too!!!
I need to come on the show and defend Declan from Phil. Phil – you cannot rip Matt Wallner. Rocco explicitly lost this game.
Oh by the way Brooks Lee homered for St Paul in his first at bat Saturday and went 3-4 yesterday.
Correa talks the talk but isn’t going to walk the walk. QB Justin Herbert had the same plantar facias injury and 3 weeks later he was back in pads and in full go in scrimmages and will be ready to start Game 1 of the NFL.
On the Correa front, in other words they are screwed at shortstop
how is wallner supposed to get better vs lhp if hes not getting live reps vs lhp
Mackey is wrong on his Wallner take. He says Wallner is an automatic out against lefties with a 70 against lefties. Meanwhile he already said farmer has a 67 for the SEASON against right AND left proving he's a worse hitter that Wallners absolute worst. Besides the fact you didnt need him to do anything that reflects his obp. You needed him to just hit a fly ball. He didnt need to hit it out of the park just not strike out. We didnt need a hit a5 that point and if Wallner just needs to make contact really. Farmer has proven he cant hit all season minimum. Farmer is worse than Wallner against lefties and Wallner still has room for growth. Id take my chances with Wallner 9/10 times barring something odd going on.
Correa is bullshitting. The only reason he " played hurt" last season was to ensure he reached his minimum PA's to guarantee all or most of his contract. I knew it all season as it was happenong which shows hes doesnt care about playing he cares about earning every dollar from that contract whether hes able to finish it out or not. The team should have held him out of games last year when they knew he was playing solely for the purpose of guaranteeing himself all the money. He knew all this last year thats why he did all this crap. You guys act like anybody wouldnt get FREE treatment and people working on their body to make them feel better and hes some professional by doing that smh.
The Twins should have executed a squeeze play with Farmer bunting and Lewis at 3rd Base with one out. This would have scored the run. Evidently Rocco didn't think of this.
Phils point is moot because farmer is just as bad against righty’s. Platoon advantage only actually matters if you get it by pinch hitting
Look at the splits all want, you have the lead, give Wallner the chance. Farmer has no confidence at the plate, not what you need in clutch situations. Can’t keep outthinking yourselves during critical points of the game
Rocco's blind reliance on the spreadsheets limits this team's ceiling. He's completely incapable of looking beyond the numbers to comprehend what's happening right in front of his face during a game. The greatest managers are able to strike a balance between stats and baseball instincts in their decision making. This concept is completely foreign to Rocco.
How will Wallner improve against lefties if he never gets the chance to face lefties?
