Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Any thoughts on Colabello, Suzuki, and Kubel?All three hitting much better than I expected, Kubel hasn't been terrible in the field. Cola looked pretty good at 1. I expected more defensively from Zuke, but maybe my expectations were unreasonable.
lyndon Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Just like everyone thought: offense is terrible, pitching is solid
Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Fricken Bartlett!
ashbury Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Colabello is on fire, Suzuki is quieting the non-believers, and Kubel... well, I can only say he is becoming an interesting (though productive) question mark. Fair enough. And Nolasco isn't doing well.
LaBombo Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Any thoughts on Colabello, Suzuki, and Kubel?In 2016 we will all be amazed that the team relied on Colabello, Suzuki, and Kubel just two years ago. Still hoping Cola's improvement is real, though.
Mr. Brooks Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Bartlett is so athletically gifted he can play anywhere.
twinscowboysbulls Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I think it's fair to say that Bartletts services are no longer needed.
lyndon Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Hey everybody. Don't get mad at Bartlett. He's so bad out there, surely...I mean surely they'll never let him play out there again. Ahhh, never mind.
mikecgrimes Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 At this point wouldn't the Twins be better off playing 5 infielders?
BigTrane Provisional Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Fair enough. And Nolasco isn't doing well.And so, my remark...Nolascoo hasn't looked sharp today, doesn't seem to have an out pitch.So, how long do you run him? I know Gardy's M.O., but we have a good 'pen
Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Bartlett! Holy crap
Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Author Posted April 6, 2014 This is turning into a nightmare.
Gibby Provisional Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I bet I could find a couple guys at the closest bar that could play better left field than Bartlett.
mikecgrimes Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Wow that was a single Jason. I don't care if your blind and have no legs you can't make those mistakes.
Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I think it's fair to say that Bartletts services are no longer needed.Do you sub him out with Escobar, or Pinto?
lyndon Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 hahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hat-trick
twinscowboysbulls Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 They have officially exposed Bart.
70charger Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Any thoughts on Colabello, Suzuki, and Kubel? Worst. Law firm. Ever. also can we be done with the Bartlett in left field experiment? Please?
Ultima Ratio Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I'm tired of an organization and manager that say they are about defense and the little things vis-a-vis defense and the "twins way" -- yet continually roster bad players and play them out of position. I'm calling bull&$*^ and am fed up with it. Corner OF need to be able to play decent defense too, especially if don't hit like Bartlett.
GCTF Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 How many runs would a lineup of nine Florimons score in a season? 100? Less? What if the lineup of Florimons were to hit against PJ Walters with an outfield of Bartletts and an infield of Nishiokas?
Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Author Posted April 6, 2014 And so, my remark...Nolascoo hasn't looked sharp today, doesn't seem to have an out pitch.So, how long do you run him? I know Gardy's M.O., but we have a good 'pen He could be alright... His location was horrible today. Off day
Richie the Rally Goat Community Moderator Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 And this is why you don't go into the season without a 4th outfielder who can play center...
Dance with Disco Dan Provisional Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 ¿Cuál describe Bartlett? 1) We live with the strikeouts because his glove is special. 2) He is a butcher in the field but, boy, he mashes. 3) He has compromising photos of Gardy.
Halsey Hall Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Didn't Swarzak want high leverage situations?
Ultima Ratio Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 You want to know why you can't give money away to get good pitchers here (sure), try shoring up your defense.
stringer bell Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Unseriously, Atchison looks like a couple guys on my slow-pitch softball team (yeah, we're old).Seriously, Nolasco couldn't get anything down and had real problems locating his fastball. Bartlett reminds me of Nishi but at a different position, and Escobar should have been put in left field.
Danchat Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Y'know, I think there is some merit to the complaining about not having a backup outfielder. Bartlett stinks out there.
LaBombo Verified Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Bartlett! Holy crapBut it's ok, because he's just the 25th man, and will have virtually no effect on the performance of the team...
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 He could be alright... His location was horrible today. Off day Again?
