Has Cooper even bothered getting off his throne to talk to Giolito? Edited July 26, 2019 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcq Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Maybe not pitch to Cruz. Gio channeling Jim Parque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the more reason Abreu had better accept a team friendly deal if the Sox resign him. Team friendly is more like only offer...what team is in search of a DH that struggles to keep his OPS above .800? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahn wishes he could make the cheap pickups the Twins do year after year. He gets bums like Castillo, Alonso, and Jay. The Twins acquire Cruz, Cron, and Schoop.

How about stop falling off the mound towards first base, which is causing your arm not to keep up with your body? I called it earlier in the game he was struggling with his mechanics.

People saying he looks like '18 Gio are being short-sided. That Giolito would be walking 5+ guys as well as giving up runs and not K'ing anybody. His peripheral numbers this year are far superior.

gusguyman Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Ya'll need to chill on the hot takes. Gio's last 8 opponents have been NYY, BOS, CHCx2, KCR, TBR, and MINx2. That is a hell of a lot of good offenses. He'll be fine, especially as he gets more experience (and consistency) with his new delivery 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention their owner actually spends the money on far superior scouting and analytics department despite a low payroll as a small market team compared to our owner.

You are taking your shtick too far Not necessarily his fault, but I also don’t believe he has the slightest clue how to coach up this new generation of velocity guys. The bigger issue is that keeping pitchers healthy used to be something he was praised for, but that has shifted. I just don’t see how they can justify keeping him around getting his massive failures the last 5 years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need better than #3 pitchers to do some damage going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if they spend on starting pitching this offseason, I don’t see how they won’t be the favorite in the AL Central next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruz is hot as fuck and added a little extra ingredient in his protein shake. He ran into a hot power hitter. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
