He also grounded into a double play. So he accounted for 4 outs in 3 at-bats.
Now we can’t even rely on Refsnyder. We’re screwed.

Sano now hitting bombs on the semi regular now is as awesome as it it is maddening. You stink it up absolutely royally for six to seven weeks and are a total black hole in the line up and then decide to put the team on your back. That guy….

Buddy texted me reminding me that in 2019, the Nationals basically had the same record as the Twins do now and went on to win 93 games and the WS.....of course we don't have a Strasburg or Scherzer.

So do you keep Sano as the DH and shop Cruz around?

Did Garver have a nut removed? I see he had to have emergency surgery.

Rocco was not very specific, but my take is both jewels are still there.

On a bigger note, it's obvious with OFers running into each other on routine flys that the Twins cannot field a big league team.
The sell-off will begin shortly.

Hopefully we can fetch some solid prospects and maybe even a few diamonds in the rough. Next year will be rough but there is a core there. Maybe in two years they can start winning again

Twins are paying Donaldson and Sano $10mil+ each. Pretty pathetic what they're getting for their money. Too bad Sano isn't getting paid per K.

Not a fan of this trade. JBJ is still owed $12M next season. Kelly had thoracic outlet surgery seven months ago. I saw Jayson Stark mentioned today that a team like the A’s could use Nelson Cruz. Will be interesting to see what Falvey/Levine do at the deadline.

Moneyball would love Cruz.
