  1. New catcher, new signs, heck, new team. It can be distracting, I've been there.
  2. Sure Diplan has more upside than the Morins and Parkers of the world anyway
  3. I think Robbie Ray is gonna be traded somewhere soon
  4. At the very least, the Twins need to come away with at least 2 middle inning relievers who are major league average or better. There's lots of those guys around that wouldn't cost that much in return. And I mean 2 guys who can handle high leverage situations. Now, maybe they'll be grizzled vets who are on loan, I don't care, at least we'd have a shot in that scenario.
  5. Yeah, why not get Stroman if it's a good deal for them? Maybe give them credit for building for next year.
  6. I guess it's all about the spin rate on his slider and good control of his breaking balls. His experience will be important as well in the pen. If he can hold his own as he has in Miami, should give Rogers what he needs in avoiding overuse.
  7. Don't know if he'll ever be great at strike recognition, but I think he's a bit behind of the other hitters on the club because he got such a late start due to his injury rehab. Personally, I think a big reason for the success of our hitting this year is the coaching staff. Scouting of opposing pitchers has been outstanding, getting keys to what to look for and such. Strangely, maybe Wes Johnson has had just as positive effect on our hitters as he has on our pitchers.
  8. Ump really squeezed Bum-mer is that Arraez at bat
  9. OK, here' a reliever we should be able to handle
  10. Marshall's really hitting his spots, looks sharp
  11. Littell is going to be a good pitcher in the league for many years. Question is: Is he ready yet?
  12. I've bee watching velocity on his fastball. It's generally down from what it was in April and May.
  13. Feel sorry for the kid, but he actually did quite well considering
  14. Still think Astudillo is gonna win this game for us tonight, just a gut feeling
  15. Glad we had a Poppen fresh arm for this game anyway
  16. Harvard pitcher pitching to a Stanford catcher, wonder where Astudillo went to college.
  17. Wonder what Poppen's GPA was at Harvard, was it higher than his ERA?
  18. His stuff looks good, and I really haven't noticed his curve. He'll develop into a good mlb pitcher, I have little doubt.
  19. I think, sometimes, a game like this will wake a team up that had begun drifting into the doldrums.
