Chicago – Carlos Correa did something on Monday afternoon that he never did on a baseball field.
Despite the fact of feeling good, the Minnesota Twins Corner stop canceled its position at the request of its manager after only three rounds and went to the clubhouse to change its crampons and start its post-match stretch routine.
With the White Sox of Chicago, dropping the hammer on the launcher leaving Chris Paddack early, the director of the twins Rocco Baldelli thought of his range for the next few days.
To play Correa and Byron Buxton in each of the next three games, including L’airer at home of the Twins Thursday afternoon, Baldelli withdrew his two stars after a single shot in a 9-0 defeat against a White Sox team which only a season set the record of the modern era for regular season loss.
Through four games, this is how it happens for the twins without victory, who were upgraded by the opponents 28-6.
“A terrible feeling,” said Correa. “This is the way we play collectively at the moment. We have to get better. We have to make adjustments quickly because the last thing you want is to spend two weeks, and that continues to drag. (Tuesday), we have to turn it on and come back ready to leave.”
The twins played 36 baseball rounds this season. They held an advance for a round (Sunday against the Cardinals of Saint-Louis). They were fortunate to be tied for four other rounds on Saturday.
The rest is a large plate of Meh.
One of the main reasons why twins face great deficits is the first difficulties in the starting rotation, which is supposed to be a strength of the club.
Although Joe Ryan was very good on Saturday, Pablo López made several unusual mistakes when opening Thursday, and Bailey Ober was bombed on Sunday after fighting a disease in the previous days.
Paddack was only four strikers when the management of his day was established. The right-hander granted a simple in advance and a walk in the first round before Endrew Vaughn does a 3-1 cursor in the stands of the left field for a three-point home run.
Four of the first six chicago strikers reached Base against Paddack during the second round, including Andrew Benintendi, who completed a three-point circuit to reach 7-0. Matt Thaiss drew the third of the four goals survived by Paddack to start the third round and scored when Michael A. Taylor castigated a two-point circuit to increase the deficit to 9-0.
During four games, the Twins leaving the launchers have an MPM of 11.25 in 16 sleeves.
“We need this first (victory),” said Paddack, who was withdrawn after 3 1/3 innings. “The atmosphere in the clubhouse has been great. Yes, we are 0-4, but we have a long season ahead of us. I wanted to stop (the defeats). That’s who I am as a launcher. But when you look at the line, nine races won, did not go to a game when we needed it and the lower slopes needed it, those who are difficult to swallow. ”

It is not as if the offensive did much to fight against the first deficits of the team.
Correa tore a line of 101 mph in the first round off Martín Pérez, a bullet carrying an expected average of .950, but she found a glove. The game was uncontrollable before it could go back to the hitting box.
The result is no longer in doubt, Baldelli withdrew Buxton and Correa.
Instead of knocking to start the fourth round, Buxton stood in the footsteps of the visitors’ canoe with his elbows planted on the balustrade and looked at Edouard Julien pinching for him against Pérez. Buxton remained there during the best part of a round and a half.
Baldelli wanted to make sure Buxton and Correa play in more significant games. Ideally, the two would play on Tuesday evening as well as in day matches Wednesday and Thursday.
“The last thing I want to do is remove anyone from a fourth round match,” said Baldelli. “I want them in the programming tomorrow and the next day, then when we will go home for the home opening, I want them to be there and play. The best way to do it is to remove them when the score is close to being a 10-year game.”

Correa thinks that the most effective way for twins to run things is that his teammates make better swing decisions. He identified the pursuit of land outside the area as the biggest culprit for a team whose .436 OPS was worse among the 30 Majors teams at 5 p.m. on Monday.
“When the strikers are looking for and pursued success, things like this happen,” said Correa. “You have hit the ball directly on people, and the next stick, you want to put the ball in play and make something away from waiting for this land that you can drive and hit hard. At the moment, we have ended up in this. We have a slow start of many people, and I feel that we could be successful, rather than waiting for the field on which we can damage.”
Maybe Correa will not have to spend the rest of the day watching from the bench.
“Collectively in a group, you must put these big strikers (together) like the other teams,” said Correa. “I think we are able to do it. I am very optimistic about how our list is built, and I think we are going to be in a good place, but we have to adjust each other quickly.”
