    Twins got hurt at the wrong time of the year, and the Yankees have gotten healthy at the right time of the year. Twins' bullpen, though, is looking good. Strange as it may sound with these two homer-hitting teams, the series will come down to who has the the best pitching and defense.
  2. Einheri
    ALL of them. Rest Gibson for at least a couple of weeks. Set up at least two sets of rotating Opener/Bulk pitching teams, probably a lefty with a righty pairing, so Thorpe and Stewart Smeltzer and Dobnak And then, swap which of the two players does the opening for their next start. Let the opener of each pitching tandem pitch until they get through the opposing team's lineup once (2-3 innings). By seasons end, we might know if any of these guys can post-season.

    "Rip the governor off?" Is that a voice-to-text dictation error for "Rip the cover off"?

    Trade for some relievers… NOW! Don't wait. Set the market price; don't wait for "bargains."
  5. Einheri
    That was some Fugly Defense. Pity. The comeback was otherwise amazing.
  6. Einheri
    Ugly ball today.

    Twins should deal for relief SOONER than later. Instead of waiting for a late bargain, pounce now and set the price.
  8. Einheri
    They should have just let the Turtle pitch.

    Speedy recovery to Carrasco, hopefully. As for the Twins, trade for some quality arms.

    Thanks. That was an… um, interesting read.

    Sorry to hear that Kennys Vargas hasn't been able to make it work well in Japan either.
  12. Einheri
    Good luck in San Fran, Tyler, and welcome to Malique.

    It's a tough decision. I think Willians probably needs to see some time at 3rd.
  14. Einheri
    Congrats to Ryne Harper. Do everything you can to hold that roster spot.

    Yeah, I don't have much hope for Reed; but, at $8.5MM, you have to give him more chances than you might like.

    And Gordon was doing fairly well this spring. Good luck to Nick in triple-A this year. We'll see you soon, I'm thinking.

    It would have been fun to see the one-two combo punch of Liriano and Santana deep into the post season. Instead, it was painful watching Liriano leave the field that day (all the time knowing that he was feeling so much worse mentally and physically than I).

    I think many feel the Twins have a glut of outfielders, so Kepler playing some at 1B helps out with this. I don't think anyone expects he would play much at first.

    As part of their TV deal, weren't the Twins were given partial ownership of Fox Sports North? That has to make their TV deal more valuable than it seems. In a related note, I see now that Jim Pohlad has joined an effort to buy the entire Fox Sports Network.

    This read to me like an Onion article.

    Sign 'em all to incentive-heavy contracts that guarantee them a decent salary/lifestyle for years to come even if they get hurt during trainings and games, provides an average payout if they perform at an average level, AND overpays them a little if they perform exceptionally well. Why not structure salaries that are mutually beneficial?

    So it was Aaron Slegers who was cut from the 40-man to make room for Cruz.

    I wrote Twins dot com, and they basically said MAYBE next year would LOOK INTO allowing readers to post again. Sigh… I miss the crowd we had there posting regularly.
  24. Einheri
    I would think the plan is to trade Gibson in July. Unless… he's been sucking it up. Or… the rest of the team hasn't been (and Kyle's been good), then they try to acquire some help to make a half-hearted run at the Division. They won't want to pay Gibson any real money unless the team is ready to win in 2020, so expect a trade, probably. Too many things have to go right for the Twins to compete in 2019. Still… you never know. If enough of the core players do well early in 2019, and if the AL Central is up for grabs, then the Twins try to make something happen. If too few of the core players are successful, then the Twins trade off who they can (good and bad players alike) to build up the "next" core (for 2021–2022).

    I've been wanting the Twins to try Kepler at 1B for about a year and a half.
