Comrade Bork Verified Member Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 I wanted to like him because I like soft tossers that can game and work it but hitters are just too good nowadays with a ton of scouting reports. The only good soft tossers these days are lucky knuckle ballers.
jud6312 Verified Member Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 Any good will built up by getting someone to take on Nolasco has been lost in the last couple of days. Two pitchers bound for DFA get shelled and then cry injury and you replace them with the exact same pitcher ... classic Twins Way. Because really, Milone/Boshers is the exact same beast as Dean/Albers ... except the latter two are super duper nice guys so it makes up for their awful pitching.
Jham Verified Member Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 Milone has a pretty decent track record of success. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a bounce back season and still has a productive career. It's not his fault that the Twins didn't have better options. We picked him up for Sam Fuld, and have paid him very little for a starter. He's a perfect type to have if you're trying to bring up young talent, because he's, no offense to Mr. Millone, expendable. The guys who were supposed to come up and replace him and the veterans who were supposed to hold down pretty much all failed. I ain't mad at Millone.
DocBauer Old-Timey Member Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 AAARRRRGGGGHHHH! Not only should Milone be gone so we can move on to someone else, but Dean? Really? Dean?! Not Wimmers. Not Light. Not Wheeler. Not O'Rourke. Dean! Come on!
