    Isn't this more like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?

    Who could have foreseen Richards being useless?

    Clicks must be down these days? This belongs on The Onion. Rocco can't even absorb what's happening right of front of him during the games.. He just burys his head in the analytics.
  4. dberthia
    He makes for a good story, but he's not a major league calibre pitcher.
  5. dberthia
    I'd take Arraez over Lopez at this point
  6. dberthia
    Not bad. Think they could've found a better logo for the front of the hats, and would've preferred a green accent instead of yellow. Overall, I was expecting much worse.

    This could be a long summer. 2 or 3 decent starters, your top players out, and half a dozen guys hitting at or below the Sano line. They've got to beat up the Tigers, White Sox and Angels in the next few series.

    For those clamoring for Bert, remember he wasn't adding much to the telecasts in his later years. His contributions had gotten to the point where they mainly consisted of regurgitating stats from the media guide. I guess if you just wanted him around for the clown aspect, that's fine, but he's not someone who's going to provide insightful commentary anymore.
  9. dberthia
    Removing Smalley would be addition via subtraction.

    It doesn't matter what any of us think. The proof will be on (or off) the field. The Twins are historically reluctant to be fully forthcoming with injuries, so, like Buxton, let's hope for the best.
  11. dberthia
    I want to believe, but I won't until I actually see it. Seems like a good guy, but at some point you have to produce. If he can't play in the field or hit better than .220 as a DH, there's really no spot for him.
  12. dberthia
    I'll take it. Jorge has been on the field for fewer and fewer games over the last couple of years, so this seems like a decent return.
  13. dberthia
    Thus far this has been an incredibly disappointing off-season, and this move does nothing to alter that view.

    Houston was the better team, but there's no reason we can't be at that level next postseason. We have a great foundation to build on. In the postseason, I'd concentrate on: Dumping Kepler and replace with guys already in the system Dumping Popkins Dumping Polanco and replacing with Julien at 2nd. Acquire a center fielder who can hit Figure out how to let Buxton go and maybe collect insurance on his contract? The guy is washed IMHO. Get Paddack ready to start again, assuming we lose Sonny Not sure about Kiriloff. He really needs to stay healthy and produce. We need a full-time power guy at 1st who can hit 40 HRs

    I just hope Lewis is OK. He was noticeably limping at the end there. If he can't go, this team really needs someone else to step up.
  16. dberthia
    Don't see anything to argue with here, including leaving-off Buxton. Hopefully Lewis can contribute.

    Our starting rotation bodes well for the playoffs, but I don't have a whole lot of trust in our bullpen with meaningful games on the line. Can you image the butt-clenching if Pagan comes in with a 2 run lead in the 7th inning of a playoff game? Our offense seems to be a roll of the dice, and you never know what you're going to get. Should be interesting.
  18. dberthia
    When you tank against teams like Detroit and KC and take a series with Philly, I'm inclined to say strength of schedule down the home stretch is meaningless.
  19. dberthia
    I can't believe we're still discussing this guy in August. He should've been DFA'd months ago. Where's the accountability? It's not fair to the team to have him in the lineup.
  20. dberthia
    Imagine looking at this team and saying "we're good".
  21. dberthia
    Let's pump the brakes on the Paganaissance. He's had a stretch of adequacy that may or may not be over, but is this a guy you'd really be comfortable with holding a lead in a playoff game?
  22. dberthia
    Fixed the headline for you: Twins Struggles Against Lefties Tied to Byron Buxton's Ineptitude and Futility
  23. dberthia
    For once I completely agree with a TD article. Wallner will have growing pains, but let's start letting him go through them. At least at the moment, he has a higher potential ceiling than Kepler. I'd make other moves as well, but these would be the top 2 for me.
  24. dberthia
    Don't drink this Kool-Aid, folks. Pagan had no right being on the roster to begin the season, and even less so today. If Rocco continues to put him on the field, it should be only in situations where the game is obviously well out of hand already.
  25. dberthia
    Seems like this front office displays little accountability with its consistently under-performing players- until it's literally years past the time they should've been jettisoned.
