Something that has been positive this week......Matthews,Bradley, and now Ober have done well. Three starters in a row...

Matthews,Bradley,-- yes i agree but against all 2nd and 3rd tier line ups also ,  Ober  has no future - to me anyway

I agree that Vasquez is valued as a veteran. ..but question if his hitting is too weak. His salary was 10 million. That is the same as what Ryan would make. Is Vasquez worth it and will the Twins fork out that much?

No one is paying Vazquez $10 mil/yr next year.

True...but still nice to see. ..but you also need to consider how much the Twins will seek out top of the lineup starters.

If we could get him for 3-4 m that's ok on my mind.

Grass sales lol. Maybe they will fix the fungus by next April

Grass came from Colorado if you remember  , Colorado blite , fusarium blite  , someone once said it was concert damage ...

Geez Higgy is tough

 

[Patzky]

Hah! The 88 mph heater was too much!

[Patzky]

And there's why the Vazquez money would be well spent.

Great present for Rocco’s birthday would be pink slip

Hes actually batting around 300 for his last 45 games , considerations for keeping him or logical to consider trading him ...

I think you mean OBP of .300 (.310) for his last 45 games, his avg over  those same 45 games is .202...

They will keep Ober for an innings eater , no questions about his pitching velocity  but he does seem to get people out ..

His Defense and arm as we just seen , my prediction   he will sign a 1 year 4 million-   if its here  ?? to me he is twice the Catcher than Jeffers, ,  he would be a bigger asset to a winning franchise ,  50-60 games a year MAX

Oh , i heard from the Texas announcers that was his average last 45 game , i hate it when I have to put my trust in someone and then they are wrong ...

[Patzky]

You should never let a pitcher wearing #71 come in and own you.

[USAFChief]

For the second half, Julien is hitting. 235/.330/.329

September: .306/.419/.389

Not including today.

Cmon ump wtf. 

[Patzky]

Bailey is in a zone. It's HIS zone.. but it's working.

[S Bart]

It is interesting to note that Buxton leads the Twins in all of the main batting stats...HR, BA, RBI, and most others...including SB....I am trying to think of the last time one person has ruled so many categories for this team. I realize that it isn't tough due to the nature of the team this year. Still...it is cool....

[USAFChief]

5-5-3 ground out.

 

[S Bart]

Oh yeah....Lee has the most errors. Culpepper maybe pushing him out down the line.

I may get my haters...but I prefer Clemens at first.

Here is a name from the recent past.... will Miranda show up a spring training....what is his future?

Will he even be on the team after the world series is over,  for sure they will dfa him and then try and sign him to a hefty minor league contract off the 40 man roster  , if that is the case I'm sure they will take a look at him in spring training but won't make the club and will have to earn his way back ...

Another option is he goes somewhere else  as a free agent for a change of scenery and signs a minor league contract for a west voast team ....

[Patzky]

Maybe we need to slip em a Mickey.

[Patzky]

One more try w Ober or is he over?
