There are few 'real' managers anymore.

Dusty, Showalter, Roberts. Hard to think of more.

Wouldn't you have thought Maddon would have been part of that group?

I think he was in a group with guys like Counsell who straddle both worlds.

Very up n the analytics side and working with the front office, as well as doing some old school managing.

Baldelli blew another absolutely crucial divisional game last night.

Nonsensical to not use Duran for a second inning in the 8th after throwing just 10 pitches. Asinine. Incompetence. Just a complete idiot.

Rocco Baldelli, what an a hole move last night in the bottom of the 8th. If there's baseball karma, that move will RIP the Twins season.

Interesting tidbit from The Athletic:

Cease's twin brother, Alec, watching from home, certainly thought it was happening, only for history to repeat itself. When they were 12 and in Little League in Georgia, Alec was one out away from a no-hitter, when a single over the head of their second baseman ended his bid. In Chicago, 14 years later, Dylan stood against the best contact hitter in the league, and uncorked his best pitch — maybe the best pitch in the sport – only for Arraez to turn history into mere brilliance in the same way.

"Now he knows my pain," quipped Alec.

What did he do, Dish?

In a 7-0 game, he brought in Nick Gordon (position player) to pitch, knowing it would keep Cease in the dugout for an extended period of time before coming out to try to finish off a no hitter.

He then changed pitchers mid inning to another position player, to further delay things.

It was clear he was trying to be a dick about the situation.

Lol dude. That is a massive stretch.

Rocco is a borderline moron. He isn't strategizing that deeply

Another disastrous series against a sub .500 team for the brewers. At this point just call everyone up and see if anyone in the farm system can hit. And then dump Yelich

Needs to get Braun's dealer's number back. Or better yet, get Pujols's dealer's number.
