Seth Stohs Site Manager Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Dustin Morse tweeted that the Twins have activated Matt Capps from the Disabled List. I'm sure they'll throw him in some low-leverage situations.
Jim Crikket Provisional Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 So Seth, was it some sort of sports version of a Freudian Slip that caused you to post this on the "On the Farm" section? Or just wishful thinking?
zenser Verified Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 For all the Matt Capps fans out there, take a good look. We won't be seeing Matt Capps in a Twins uniform next year.
Mr. Ed Provisional Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 For all the Matt Capps fans out there, take a good look. We won't be seeing Matt Capps in a Twins uniform next year. I would not be surprised to see Capps get a 1- year offer from the Twins AGAIN. Keep pouring money down that drain until they prove he was a good acquisition.
J-Dog Dungan Provisional Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 So I am assuming that any situation that the Twins put Capps into is a low-leverage situation because they aren't actually in the playoff hunt.
Winston Smith Verified Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I expect both Capps and Pavano back next year. In honor of Crikket: "I don't want a pickle, Just want to ride on my motorsickle!"

They don't even have to make an offer. All they have to do is pick up the $6.5m option on Cappsie.
LewFordLives Verified Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Capps wants to get out and prove he still has something left in the tank before the Twins cut him loose and he hits the free-agent market. I wouldn't give him any innings if it's at the expense of one of the younger players. I don't see that the Twins feel they should owe him anything at this point (other than his considerable buyout).
Twins Twerp Provisional Member Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Lets see that cutter...over/under 1 strikeout for the rest of his career?
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 So there wasn't enough innings to go around for Slama or Guerra but Gardy can dig up a few for Capps?
Mike Sixel Old-Timey Member Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Why limit him to low leverage situations? That makes no sense, either he's healthy, or he's not....
Thrylos Old-Timey Member Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 So there wasn't enough innings to go around for Slama or Guerra but Gardy can dig up a few for Capps? Of course. Capps is a proven MLB-closer
Westgaard66 Verified Member Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 let him pitch and place him on waivers.....maybe we can get a bag of BP balls or something for him.
SpantheMan Verified Member Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 let him pitch and place him on waivers.....maybe we can get a bag of BP balls or something for him.But then the other team would have to pay his buyout
