  1. Easy - if Buxton finds out from this specialist that season ending surgery is the best option, you end his season, put him on the 60 day DL, and add Kiriloff to the 40 man.
  2. Unnecessarily resting your best players is stupid.
  3. Good stuff - it was originally reported a shoulder soreness, but bicep tendonitis can be found in the shoulder area. The reality is, tendonitis of any kind really doesn't subside unless given a significant amount of R&R...which at this point, the Twins don't have the luxury of doing. Now, if the lead was around 10 games or so in the division, that might be the case. Ideal timing, though, given that it is September and the Twins have a number of options in the pen.
  4. He isn't capable or comfortable enough swinging a bat yet.
  5. Thought this would have been posted by now, but sounds like Dyson is headed back to the Twin Cities due to shoulder soreness. Not good.
  6. Couldn't they sign him right now?
  7. What? The Twins, assuming they make the DS, would play back-to-back games twice...if Rogers continues to be ineffective on back-to-back games, that is a real problem. How is that even an argument?
  8. Not really - the ALDS is set up to play back-to-back games (1&2), off day, then back-to-back games (3&4), off day, then game 5.
  9. Having this depth also allows the Twins, if it happens, to not burn through their main guys if they don't have to. If you are allowed to expand your rosters, why not take advantage of it? Although, having this many pitchers on the roster probably eliminates any chance of us seeing La Tortuga pitch.
  10. Graterol would be a nice opener for someone like Smeltzer or Thorpe - or even Gibson or Perez.
  11. Twins should definitely be looking into Jeffress IMO.
  12. Are we to make something, anything, out of Lewis playing different positions recently?
  13. Looks like Dobnak is starting tonight for the Twins...?
  14. Yeah, there is no way I am giving Gibson big money. Also, Perez should not be retained. The Twins can find similar production from their "5th" starter for much cheaper; either in house, or taking a chance on a low level FA. I wouldn't be against the Twins bringing back Odo and Big Mike. I think that would be ideal, but I think both will be looking for bigger deals than the Twins are willing to give. I firmly believe that the Twins will trade for a SP this season...whether it be by trading minor league depth, or someone like Rosario.
  15. Is it within realm to call Gibson the same pitcher that Nick Blackburn was, with the exception that Gibson gets more Ks?
  16. Gleeman is reporting that Graterol is getting called up.
  17. This is a pretty important series IMO, considering Cleveland is playing a good Tampa Bay team this weekend. A great opportunity to push the lead out to 5-6 games heading into September if the Twins do their part and the Rays put in a helping hand.
  18. Worst lineup the Twins have put out all season?
  19. IF Duffey and May can be effective out of the pen, that is really a big piece moving forward...beyond 2019.
  20. Things are all relative, so let's keep the bullpen in perspective. Their recent string of success has been against bad baseball teams. Call me skeptic that they will be able to perform late in September and (hopefully) in October.
  21. To Cave's credit, he has been very good lately. Good for him. Now, with Gonzalez being out for a TBD amount of time, the OF depth is really in question. Probably will see Arraez back out there...good thing September 1st is right around the corner.
  22. It will be just like making a trade!
