  1. So you have a problem with Buxton, Correa or whoever getting a 4th strike? I want to believe the law of averages kicks in. So sure I hate it when a ball is a strike against the Tigers. But if in October one of them gets a 4th strike to work with I'm pretty good with it.
  2. I'm not a fan of computer umpires. I may be wrong but the teams that can overcome bad calls are probably the better teams and win in October. Who wants to watch a football game where every holding is called? Not this guy. Imperfection is part of the game.
  3. Alright Gary..show them who they traded away1
  4. I'd like to agree till I look at the Mets. I know they added talent, but the big ones are on the IL, I still believe the manager is the difference from a playoff team to a World Series team. talent being similar
  5. I'm going to say something that at the beginning of April I'd put $ on that I would not say...Gary Sanchez has been pretty good as a Twin..i'd be good with an extension. Now that I said it I feel like i have to defend it... He's Sano...i know I know..but can play a tough position adequately..But looks like a better DH option then Sano.
  6. I'm hoping Larnach forces me to add him to my fantasy BB teams. He's been really good since returning from Milb
  7. Good day for the Twins minor leaguers. Smetzer was great, Sand up next and Jermaine Palacios gets the start in both games. Great to see all of these guys today. Jermaine Palacios has paid his dues and deserves his major league pay check. With the 13? on IL hope most of them get to stick around for more.
  8. Put me in couch I'm ready to play...today..OK nvm who can we get from AA to fill out the roster?
  9. i know a few didn't like the Gray trade but so far he has been money. Hope it continues.
  10. MLB game cast just said Lewis left the game due to a knee injury..sweating that info
  11. Even with the Paddack having a 2nd TJ I'm not against this trade. Assuming he comes back late next season and is decent. If you look and the Kenta trade its similar in that the Twins got around a season worth of starts (over two seasons) from him and he went under the knife. Yes I know Paddack hasn't made that many starts yet.. I wouldn't call that trade a bad one. I believe the Twins have about the same amount of team control left with both of them. But Graterol was/is more valuable because he wasn't a pending free agent. The Twins were going to be save by committee whether Rogers was here or in San Diego so his number would be a bit different if he was still a Twin. Getting Rooker off the 40 man was a win all by itself. Getting a starter, a scary BP arm and a top 20 prospect for a season of a very good reliever, a player with no place to play and 6 mil seem like a fair gamble. Escobar, Pressly and Berrios trades all were disappointing trades at the time. They don't look so bad now. Like so many other trades it's in my opinion to early to declare this trade good, bad or other.
  12. I want to be positive but that was an......Whoping start to finish...Gonna have to find another gear if we want any series wins...in the play offs....
  13. I seem to remember something about 5 times per season. But I could be wrong.
  14. umm yeah..what I've seen this year he's two step ahead of anyone unlucky enough to throw him a strike. Hes playing like someone who has a boatload of bonus's he wants and plans on getting. More power to him 135 games and MVP with a huge paycheck that's well deserved. GO BUCK!
  15. a trade for a starting pitcher that included Rooker and Gordon would make this a lot simpler...FO..
  16. I’m waiting for the Twilight Zone music to start playing…
  17. I always enjoy your point of view Ted. Maybe both will have good or great years. That'd really change my thoughts on this off-season so far. The lack of more moves probably bothers me more than these two in the same line up. Feels like we're waiting on players to run out of chairs in this game of duck, duck, goose. Didn't the twins set a franchise record for losses the last time the off season felt this way??..
  18. I’d rather have Martin. Which is why I put Lewis in my trade offer. I think Lewis has more upside but believe Martin has a much higher floor.
  19. I don’t see Oakland trading those two in the same trade. To follow flavaines trade for a trade goofiness…and assuming Story is being added to the Twins and that isn’t another Darvish or Wheeler type of shucks guy we really tried hard nonsense..How about Montas and Langiers for Lewis, Winder and a 20-30 prospect.
  20. Well I’m glad I didn’t buy any players jerseys yesterday…or game tickets for that matter…if this ends up being just a money saving move with no big salaries added with the savings I won’t be in need of either…got my hopes up with the Sony Gray trade yesterday..to wake up to this..
  21. Ok one more good starter and sign big Mike and we could have an average rotation. I hear Oakland has a starter or two that could be had. San Diego has a couple extra arms. Tough to see Petty go but HS pitchers are a crap shoot. Might be a future cy young winner and may never make it to the bigs.
