jud6312 Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 It was nice of the Twins to bring Matty LeCroy back to play LF tonight.
HitInAPinch Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Apparently Tonkin is too tall to be a short reliever anymore. just warming up for my Twins GM interview....

Kwak Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 I guess Anthony's first order to the team was "Hey you idiots, Stop this winning s---!"
Aggies7 Old-Timey Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 The twins will definitely be interested in shoring up their rotation at the trade deadline.

USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 True story: I was in the left field stands for Gagne's HR in game 1...and I was absolutely certain it was coming right to me. It ran out of gas and dropped like a rock a couple rows in front of me, right on line.

HitInAPinch Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Now, if only Sano knocks one out....
jimmer Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Now, if only Sano knocks one out....Nope, no HR, but remember, he uses strikeouts as a weapon :-)
Hosken Bombo Disco Community Moderator Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Nope, no HR, but remember, he uses strikeouts as a weapon :-)It gets agonizing sometimes. Ain't gonna lie.
HitInAPinch Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Nope, no HR, but remember, he uses strikeouts as a weapon :-)1972 Danny Darwin Twins strikeout record: 145. Something to look forward to
HitInAPinch Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Really, really, really can't leave Tonkin in for more than 2 innings.
Blake Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Contract Notes: Full No-Trade ClauseFind a way to move Joe Mauer doesn't mean "trade him." It means "move Joe Mauer" by whatever means necessary. Trading is merely one option.
sampleSizeOfOne Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Oh Bert. This is more than a hiccup.....Has he tried drinking water?
HitInAPinch Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Find a way to move Joe Mauer doesn't mean "trade him." It means "move Joe Mauer" by whatever means necessary. Trading is merely one option.And the other options would be what? No way Joe walks away from the 2 remaining years, $46M, on the contract. I don't see the Pohlad's buying out that contract, either. Not much left.
jimmer Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 So tired of hearing Dick glorify AJ that I turned it to the Braves feed.
Mr. Brooks Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 And the other options would be what? No way Joe walks away from the 2 remaining years, $46M, on the contract. I don't see the Pohlad's buying out that contract, either. Not much left.Yeah I don't see any way of moving him, per se.But, Mauer should be a bench player. I'm just not sure that Mollie has the guts to do so.
jimmer Verified Member Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Any way we can stop discussing Mauer and whether or not he should be playing or traded, or his body dumped into the water with concrete bricks tied to his ankles? This is supposed to be lighthearted thread. There's many threads where one can discuss Mauer's ineptitude. http://twinsdaily.com/topic/23032-article-mauer-outage/
