JDBrocks Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 3 minutes ago, The Gnat said: Twins put in 3 waiver claims on players released the past two days. Not sure if they got anyone, but Harrison Bader, Mike Clevinger, Lucas Gialito, and Carlos Carasco were at the top of the list. Lopez, Bader, Moore, please. I'm out on the rest of them. No Clevinger ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have zero interest in another bad hitting OF. Give me Martin or just wait for Buxton. Would love the bullpen arms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love the bullpen arms! I agree on Martin, but realistically that's not going to happen given what the FO has done this year. Bader has crushed LHP this year (1.079 OPS), so that's why I'd be in on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't even want Julien or Wallner up, sending them back down only to have to call them back up due to injury. I'm ready for them to be gone, or wake up and trust their system more....I won't rebel if they get Bader, he's just not my cup of tea. (he's 100x the player Luplow is though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming that's simply because they know how the Twins' front office thinks, so they did it to block them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I really dislike Fleck’s offensive philosophy. Open it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Allowing an official review on a play before a false start is absolutely ridiculous. The false start shouldn’t be any different than a snap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 PJ Fleck is just not a good coach. There are a lot of things that he does extremely well with the football program. But when it comes to “Saturday”, the guy just doesn’t do anything well. He gets out coached a lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) My criticisms of Fleck still stand, but a great gutsy comeback for the Gophers! 1-0 On a side note, the Gophers may have something at QB. There’s some impressive tools and talent to work with. Edited September 1, 2023 by SemperFeist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet he somehow manages to win 63% of the games since he's been head coach at the U. It's really remarkable (I do kind of agree with you). I especially figured the game was going to be ugly since Nebraska has a new coach, new scheme and new players. I imagine watching tape of his tenures at Temple and Baylor weren't going to be a whole lot of help. He's already the winningest coach in Gophers history since Bernie Bierman (percentage-wise) and could catch Mason in wins in the next 2 years.
