    Interesting article. Can the Marlins really be so down on their chances that they will trade away most of their good pitching.If that is true, I wonder what Captain Jeter is smoking.

    As Bob Dylan said, the times they are a changing. Standing pat is almost always a recipe for failure.

    Wonderful analysis

    Great article. However I would only go 3 years max on Taylor Rogers. 4 years is too much for any relief pitcher.

    I suspect that the Twins analytic department can provide the data needed to help Jose with his pitch mix. I believe that Jose's pitching motion should be simplified so as to provide more consistency.

    Nice article. However coul? it be that Eddie's 2nd half drop off was due to his ankle injury

    Is the Vanimal still pitching? Maybe they will go for him?

    Gardenhire, " Alexa that was not a strike. You blew that call and I am really upset. You a bleeping, bleeping, bleep." Alexa, " Gardy, you have to leave now. Goodbye.

    This off season should be fun.

    Maybe the Giants would send us Taylor Rogers' twin brother. Then we could really confuse the opposition.

    How can you not love Devin Smeltzer's life story. Still to me he seems like the 2nd coming of Tommy Milone.

    As Senator Robert Dole said, " It Depends."

    Unless Jason finds a dry free agent market for his services, I don't see him returning. I expect the Twins to replace him with an internal candidate.

    I see some organizations playing 19-21 year olds at the MLB level and wonder why the Twins don't seem to do that. Are they too cautious?

    Such versatility is an assett for Royce and a number of Twins. Good to see as it gives us much flexibility.

    Wow !! Fabulous article, Jamie.

    I believe that Falvey will try to build the pitching staff from within the system, maybe adding one up and coming starting pitcher from another organization. I think of Cleveland this year which at the end of the season was starting 3 pitchers from the 2016 draft. Pohlad's money will then be safe.

    Perez still under contract?? I can't imagine the Twins picking up his 2020 option.
  19. Richard Swerdlick
    I see the Twins bringing back Odo and Pineda. The FO wants to build the rotation from within. They will try to sign a good starting pitcher or trade for one. Cron will likely not be back and Sano will play more first base. He is being groomed as the DH successor to Nelson Cruz. Sano could still play 3rd base if needed. Twins need a spot for Kiriloff and others who will be ready for the bigs in 20 or 21. Castro and Schoop will be gone. Interesting times.

    Baseball to me is a celebration of the warm weather months. I greatly enjoyed the many hours of entertainment that the Twins and their minor league teams provided me. Next year I plan to subscribe to MILB TV to be able to watch some of those minor league games. Thank you to the TWins and the TWins Daily staff for a wonderful summer.

    I am glad that the season never ends with Twins Daily. It makes my days complete.

    If I ran the Twins and if David Ortiz was in the country, I would have paid him to come and give the team a pep talk about how the RedSox came back from being down 3-0 and beat the Yankees 4 straight in 2004.
  23. Richard Swerdlick
    I don't understand why Rocco didn't start Schoop didn't start against a lefthanded pitcher. He is also a better fielder than Luis A . Then he could have brought Luis in later in the game against a right hander. As for Berrios, I would have brought him out to ptich the fifth inning. His command had not been good early, but his last 2 innings were better and his pitch count was low enough for him to do another inning. Littel had been good for us, but the stress seemed to get to him tonight.

    Super observations.
  25. Richard Swerdlick
    Might be an opening at the hot corner for Royce next year if they move Miguel to first
