Rhett Bollinger thought he had options left. I'll take Walters or Gibson over Worley. He reminded me of Nick Blackburn. No out pitch, no K's, poor control. It had to be done.

Rob Radlosky, now that's a name I remember. He gave up 7 HR's in 8 innings pitched.

Seth is right. It's WHIP. Examples: Peavey Lifetime WHIP 1.175- worst WHIP of 1.423 resulted in 6W 7L 4.52 ERA, Verlander Lifetime WHIP 1.174-worst WHIP of 1.403 resulted in 11W 17L 4.84, C Lee...

Johan Santanas-good Nick Blackburns-bad is what this tells me.

In this draft you have 4 great arms in Appel, Manaea, Grey and Stanek. Were pretty deep in quality bats that are up and coming. With our history of Gibson and Wimmers both needing a year after...

Jeremy, what is your take on MLBTR's report the Twins are negotiating with Reese McGuire, HS-C, out of Washington? You list Okey and Collins as the top two catchers. Why are the Twins focusing on...

Great take Nick. This is something I noticed also. Worley has to some degree been the victim of bad luck. A good pitch leads to a bloop or a roller ends up in the right spot between Plouffe and...

Maybe your right Nick. But I am still running out of patience with Hendriks.

Never been a Swarzak fan. But he did pitch well the first time out. To me he is one step better then say a Jeff Manship. But I will give him the benefit of the doubt and hope this is the year he...

I really enjoy this type of writing. It's alot of fun to look back at the hits and misses. I have to agree with mike wants wins that in this area the Twins need to do better. I remember not many...

I really see another year where the starting staff is in flux most of the season. We have 3 gimpy arms in Diamond, Pelfrey, and Worley. Our addition of Correria is to be an innings eater but his...

Let's not forget the fragile health of Morneau, Maurer and Doumit. If one of them goes down, it would sure be nice to be able to insert Thome in the DH spot 4 or 5 times a week. Butera takes up the...

I can't help but be interested in bringing back Thome. I know he can't run anymore and you'd have to pinch run most of the time. But back in the old days the manager always had a pitcher ready to...

Jeff Clement should be thrilled to hear Gardy say that. PH-1B-Emergency Catcher with Long Ball Power.

Glad you pointed out Matt Harrington Seth. He was offered 4 million once after being the number one overall pick, didn't sign. Changed to Boras as an agent and again refused a 1.2 million dollar...

In 1969 a friend and I went along with my father to the Playoff game with Baltimore at the Old Met. They allowed us to park our camper in the lot of the stadium. About an hour after the game we...

I just hope Gibson can be a Kevin Tapani type pitcher. I think he will be. Also very excited at the prospect of a Meyer-May-Gibson-Worley-Hermsen rotation at some point. And then there is Wimmers,...

I am ok with Plouffe at third. If he can hit .260, drive in 75 runs, pop 18-20 homers he's an asset. His fielding will get better. He's a former shortshop, so the transition to 3rd will come...

A healthy Morneau would sure make things easier for Willingham. Might get another 35 homer season out of his bat. As for Sweeney, he'd make a good platoon bat with Mastroianni to start the season. ...

Joe Benson. Curious how he is feeling about his chances to win the CF job? How is physical health is after the many injuries last year?

I just don't see it. He has no out pitch. Doesn't overpower anybody. I never see him transitioning into anything more then a AAAA pitcher at best. We have plenty of those types already. I'd take...

This just makes no sense. Why not just go with Deduno, DeVries or even Blackburn. Correia is very much like Blackburn. So 10 million this year for bad pitchers Blackburn and Correia. And another...

I'm not a Hannahan fan. But I guess the Pagliarulo-Leius platoon worked pretty well in 91, so maybe it would work again.

Gleeman really needs to take a nap before these podcasts. Kinda Grouchy and Condescending.

I like the trade. Twins aren't going to be competitive for a few years anyway. Looking at 2015: 1B-Parmalee 2B-Rosario SS-Santana 3B-Sano LF-Revere CF-Hicks RF-Arcia C-DH Maurer ...
