Bark's Lounge Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 This is just an observation, not as a Twins or Royals fan. I expected Hosmer to be a better player than he is now. I sort of viewed him as a modern day Steve Garvey. Not so much anymore. He is good, but he is a poor man's Steve Garvey. Blake 1
diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 one more out and the ERA is back to 9.
Aggies7 Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Wonder what Carlos Silva is doing these days David HK, snepp, operation mindcrime and 1 other 4
jimmer Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 So I mentioned after the 2015 season that Gibson was showing signs of getting worse and that we should trade him because some might be fooled by the ERA. Then, before the 2016 season,I picked him as the pitcher that would most disappoint (along with Rosario as the batter that would be the most disappointing). And he continues to stink... bird 1

operation mindcrime Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 In the words of DaveW "Time for Gibson to go, forever."
Blake Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Much as Gibson dismays me, Perez is something else.

USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Predictions are easy. I can see 3 years into the future. ... ... ... I have 2020 vision. snepp, diehardtwinsfan, Riverbrian and 3 others 6
diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express once. I can do one better. They are building one less than a mile from my house... Pretty sure that's a continual IQ upgrade... Riverbrian and jimmer 2
diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Buxton OPS is ... wait for it... .420 prior to this at bat.
diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 but... admittedly, he's taking a lot more pitches right now.
David HK Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Ahhh, Gibby. Just checked in before aettling into the dentist's chair... Thx, mate, for helping take my mind off the coming trauma. Riverbrian 1
snepp Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Buxton OPS is ... wait for it... .420 prior to this at bat. 160 points higher than it was 5 games ago. diehardtwinsfan, USAFChief and Riverbrian 3
jimmer Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) 160 points higher than it was 5 games ago. Worst K% in the majors. Sano has the 11th worst K% Edited April 29, 2017 by jimmer

diehardtwinsfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 And the wheels on the bus fall off and off...
Danchat Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 I have to believe this is Gibson's last stand...
Bark's Lounge Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Gibson is filler and they might run him out there the rest of the season, whatever, They will use him in the best effort to sew together this season and make the best out of it. He certainly could be replaced, and should that happen? I don't know. Other than Berrios, the other MiLB players have a ways to go.
Joe A. Preusser Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Gibson thinks he should have gotten a call, but didnt. Visibly upset... Is there any way this doesn't turn into 4 more runs here?
USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 I installed a new program on my phone today...came with one of those "terms and conditions" pages, and it got me to thinking. "This is just like when Mrs Chief talks," I though. "I pay little attention, wouldn't understand even if I did, and just 'agree' at the end." Joe A. Preusser, snepp, Riverbrian and 1 other 4

jimmer Verified Member Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 Best CF in the game.yeah, no. One of the best defensive CFs though.
