  1. Hands down, the most impactful article I have read on here. That’s not a slight to other articles.. It makes me smile hearing this young man share his faith.
  2. Yes, this is what selling looks like. Things go sideways quickly. From bad to worse.
  3. 1. But Jeffers is not a weak side tandem catcher.. And I promise, there will Always be another catcher to back him up. 2. Plus Noah’s arrow is pointing up in AAA. 3. Replacing the Vasquez production will actually cost less than what we are paying Vazquez.
  4. Yes, I’m hoping to see Keaschell again this year. Would love to see Gonzo as well. I guess I just wish we had some exciting replacements ready now, like Emma and Jenk. For me anyways I feel like I kinda know what Martin is and don’t have a ton of hope in Sabato. II guess I’m turning from optimism to being pessimistic about things. Anyway thanks for the chat and responses.
  5. Hey, his son is in the Red Sox org. Not a rated prospect from what I know. But maybe we steal him before he busts out. Lil payback 🙂
  6. I see we’re your coming from. But in my opinion if you are starting Sabato, Martin, and Keaschell now…. And they show minimal, which is what should be expected, then do we run em out there again next year? If they tank which is possible, then I guess what’s that telling to any of our vets. I guess I’m just saying there are unintended consequences to everything. I’m not saying you are wrong by any means. Just that things can go from bad to unrecoverable quickly. Though I believe Keaschell is legit.
  7. Agree with trading the rentals and see what we can get. What kids in the system do we let play? Honestly asking. As for Rooker, the only team that saw what he could become was the A’s. And they had been bad for awhile and in a position to see if he could stick. That being said yes still a loss by the Twins. I just don’t recall anybody on here claiming he was going to be a loss. It’s much easier to see this as a miss by us after the fact.
  8. Has it occurred to you with your 20/20 hindsight vision, it’s most likely no other team was interested in Julien even when he was going good. Just because he should have been traded Does Not mean there was a team that would have given anything for him…. They saw him for who he is. Time to put those non helpful hindsight glasses away. Or I guess just keep kicking that dead horse.
  9. Since you quoted me, where did I state I’m against adding talent? What is it that makes me a homer? I don’t even reside in Minnesota. I advocate adding talent to improve the roster. Let me ask you , what trades and suggestions do you have???
  10. Once again you go on a tangent of quoting things I never said. I never stated everything is fine . It’s not. And you f you or I think we are going to make changes, then we are screwed, and I actually am informed more than most on the state of affairs with the organization. Knowing many of the players, I will root for them every single day and twice on Sunday. But ya go ahead and keep saying so and do is going to peter out. If they do you get to be right. If they don’t you just repeat it next year.
  11. Well the Twins did make the past season 2 years ago and still have a chance to this year. But ya congrats on picking your favorite team to lose every year. Sounds like a fun way to be.
  12. I say stay the course. If at the trade deadline we stay afloat AND it looks like Lopez and Mathews are recovering as expected. Then we trade prospects for a bat if there is a trade to be had. Until then we continue to develop our pitchers like Festa and SWR. If our depth can keep us in contention until the deadline and return of 2 SP we have a shot. If we are out of it or Pablo and Zebby are not recovering as anticipated, there really is no reason to believe any sensible trade could save the season at that point. Just my thoughts.
  13. Out of curiosity, are there any truly successful long relievers around anymore? I honestly don’t know, I only watch the Twins and yes Sands was used as one a couple seasons back. But is it something a majority of contending teams use? I could see some of the much lesser teams possibly using them, not sure. I’m Not against it but seams like a hard position to excel at in today’s game.
  14. Why do your feel the need to start calling people losers. Is it the safety of the internet?
  15. Seems like whenever the Twins are rolling, we get these kind of articles and opinions of complete overreaction to something that is really nothing at all. He’s had 55 AB this season. The sky is not falling, but I get it. Twins are playing great and showing what it takes to win. But hey don’t let me spill any kind of optimism about Royce or any of the other players. Let’s just cut him I suppose and bring up say Holland. Sounds like a plan.
  16. That same people all calling for McCusker to get some run with the big leagues team now...are the same ones saying we need to lower our K%. Do we reall6 want a 30-35% k percentage again? I'm fine with it if he's hitting bombs..but most are not and just keep screaming for the next guy to come up with no idea of who he is as a hitter and then there are roster and position considerations. But what do I know.
  17. I'm sure it much easier to be engaged playing almost every day than from the IL. That being said I don't really recall him not being engaged even from the bench.
  18. You got some good points about the past 4 years. I'm not a resident of Minnesota, so I dont hear much of the local media there,that makes sence. I do watch alot of Twins baseball and spend a month or so at Spring training and visit the minors throughout the year. So I definitely don't put much stock in media reports about prospects. Can usually watch players and prospects and have a decent feel for there talent...though that rarely equals success. Thanks for the response.
  19. I watch and honestly doesn't affect me that some poll says they are unwatchable. Also I been hearing that "they" over hype our players and prospects. My genuine question is, who is "they"?
  20. There is a legitimate reason he has not been playing.. He isn't 100 percent healthy is all I can say.
  21. Why do you think The Twins judged his minor league work to be a mirage?
  22. They started earlier this year. I only know it was a planned event. But unfortunately I am not sure why they adjusted the dates.
