I have about 75% confidence the Twins will win 88 games in 2016. This team will be pretty good then, regardless of who the coaches are. The better question is how much faith I have in them actually...

Whatever. Deduno and Walters wont be in the rotation for long. I don't see how they can allow Hicks to struggle up here for this long while keeping Gibson down for financial reasons.

I thought about moving Sano up too. I then slapped myself in the face and had to change my shorts. I'd love to see him now, but burning an option year would not be worth it if he struggles to adjust....

Wow. Pretty impressive what Sano is doing right now. I really hope he can be the player we are all hoping for.

Crapshot? I really wouldn't say that. Some of the guys drafted in the top 5 in previous years haven't worked out, but that is where you are most likely to get a premium player.

I've been one that wants more consistency from Gibson before going to the Twins. With another piss poor outing by Hernandez, I don't see any reason to leave him in the rotation while Gibson is...

I don't understand what is wrong with Benson. The dude looked so promising 2 years ago and now can't even hit his weight in AAA. I'm just baffled by it. At this point, I'm not sure there is much hope...

I'm with Oxtung on this. Using teame stats isn't the best indicator. I'd feel like the stats would tell a different story when using individuals. The elite strike-out pitchers, Aces, allow less runs....

Gibson is inconsistent right now. He is probably better than Pedro, so sending Pedro to the pen where he belongs isn't going to hurt my feelings. Other than that he is not ready. Right now he needs...

Star catchers can't win games by themselves. The Twins have a HOF catcher right now and have barely managed to win a single playoff game in 5 series.




Examining Oswaldo Arcia's recent struggles
