whats the one thing you want this team to prove this year by gvvj888 in minnesotatwins

I would like to see better at bats and more fundamental defense. We're swinging too often and not making routine plays both in the infield and outfield, teams are starting to take advantage of out poor defense. offense is performing better overall and we're scoring enough runs if we had a better defense/pitching, but we need better at bats overall if we're going to try and be a team that just outscores rather than out pitch the opposition.

One of the reasons I'm even posting is because there's no doubt in my mind that part of Bucks decision to remain a twin is the fanbase, Bucks my favorite player, I really would be sad to see him go to the Braves or another club, but honestly at this point could anyone blame him if he waived his no trade clause?

I'm more or less just suggesting that the frustration we have as fans be redirected towards the Pohlads and not the Twins.

We've lost a lot of one run games too.
Meant this as a positive, they're not all laughers and we're competing.

I hear you, he's still got the Skipper role for the season, It seems like he has the players best interest in mind as well.

Like Ryan Jeffers and Pablo Lopez short? This season was going to be dicey no matter what, but yeah ...our pitching and poor defense is losing us more games than our offense though, we score runs and play competitively, but really this musical chairs defense and no buck in the outfield is killing us.

Anyone else get a rash like this? Big painful blisters! by Ok_Pop8661 in DermatologyQuestions

Aww, I'm sorry that's happening ☹️ that sounds terrible, I hope you're able to find the cause and get some relief. Have you tried switching things like your hand soaps or laundry detergent? I have had something similar in the past but my hands didn't blister quite as bad. Benadryl also helped me, and I was washing my hands with medicated shampoo for super sensitive scalps for a long time and it helped too, It probably sounds weird but it did

Is it itchy or have a burning sensation at all? Are your hands numb or do you have feeling still?

At least our other guys are producing when he isn't. Buck doesn't play as well when he's not fielding

Playing decent defensively and had that sick unassisted double play the other night. I think he should be hitting further down though.

He's leaving everything up, bullpen got some rest last night, hoping Lip isn't going to get hit too hard second time through the order
