  1. Still going to be tough to match up against Bieber and McKenzie. We will have to beat them with...... "Depth!"
  2. Arraez an all-star level performer at 1st base....not really. Which is why Miami is probably playing journeyman Garret Cooper there this year. It just reinforces the fact that 1st base is one of the easier positions to "plug a guy in" if needed........
  3. The pitching in the KBO is probably similar to AA ball (without the top-end MPH.) Unfortunately, I don't know that this is something a person can simply "adjust" to.
  4. Agree Nick....this is why we shouldn't be too disappointed in a .500 record for the Saints this year.
  5. I'm sorry, I still watch Akil Baddoo's box scores and hope that he doesn't do very well. Is that a bad thing? And fortunately (for me,) he hasn't done well.......
  6. Three guys would need to get hurt for him to have a shot this Spring......praying that won't happen!
  7. Confirmations that the pitching staff for St Paul is not all-star caliber...which a lot of TD thinks they will be......
  8. Injury or earning it...Ober will be one of the top 5 starters......
  9. Not predictions but.....confirmations....... ****************** terrydactyls 22 hours ago, miracleb said: Predictions for an entire team formulated from one inning each by two different pitchers from a very early spring training game?
  10. I think Buxton had some kind of hip injury (from running?) but otherwise a bulk of his time missed was due to hitting the wall or getting hit by a pitch. I think he is different from Mauer (or any catcher for that matter.)
  11. Varland and SWR in yesterday's game is why I think the Saints will be a .500 team. Give them some time...you can't expect them to be AAA all-star caliber yet.....which seems to be what a lot of TD is thinking.....
  12. Ober will start the season with the big club (if he is healthy.) I don't know that the starters at AAA will be as impressive as we are hoping. I can easily see the Saints being a .500 team.......
  13. Hmmmm.....Against lefties: "Last year he slashed just .235/.291/.320 against them. Not a ringing endorsement as to how we are going to go after lefties in 2023......
  14. We are WAY premature on Roni right now. He needs a couple of years at AA ball. He will probably go to AAA to start but if he doesn't find success by the end of the year, AA is in his future. Right now, it is hard to project him as a major league ball player......let's give him a couple more years before we start analyzing starter verses relief pitcher.......
  15. Actually....I see Solano leading off against lefties now......which is still obviously a weakness.......
  16. Very sad....but Gordon is probably one of the best options to lead-off against right-handed pitchers. Baldelli might try again to force Kepler there (HOW can that make sense?) Verses lefties...Gallo..... with his 200 batting average?? I'm afraid this is going to be a weak spot for the Twins all year. :(
  17. He was top ten among left handed relievers in several pitching categories. And every reliever is a couple homeruns away from drastically different results. ******************************* Top ten in several categories doesn't make him one of the most dominant left-handed relievers in all of baseball.........LOL!
  18. Agree....there is no downside because we had Lewis to move to the disabled list anyhow. Santana can easily be dropped if something better comes along. But looking at his stats.....it is hard to believe his is still pitching professionally....... let alone getting a major league "shot."
  19. Agree.....Gray! (Of course....we need to get all of these guys TO the start of the regular season.....)
  20. Not a good start to Spring training for Megill....but let's see how he does in his 4-5th outings. The nice thing is he will be one of the only guys who can say his ERA dropped the REST of Spring training......
