    Right - but you don't offer that kind of contract to a guy with under 300 career ABs at the ML level. Let's let this thing ride out a little more before we start shelling out more money than is even necessary at this point.
  2. SpicyGarvSauce
    Why?
  3. SpicyGarvSauce
    Someone like Romero could really help the 2020 bullpen if he figures it out. I do agree with the post above that the Twins need another left handed arm in the pen to go along with Rogers.
  4. SpicyGarvSauce
    Like Chief said, ride the wave. Perhaps a move to the OF would make sense if the Twins opt to keep him and they don't view him as an adequate enough 2B?
  5. SpicyGarvSauce
    A win is a win, but the ineptitude of the White Sox really got Rocco off the hook last night - why is Harper being used in high leverage situations at all? It made no sense to bring him in when you had a rested Graterol or Romero. I assume he is saving Dobnak, Smeltzer, and Thorpe for the weekend but come on - using Harper in that situation was a bone headed move. Having Odo go 7 tonight would be huge, but unexpected. Twins have struggled against Nova too, so maybe tonight is the night they bust out.
  6. SpicyGarvSauce
    Right. A lot of times the base runner, in that situation, isn't stealing off of the catcher. Rather, a number of other factors (such as the fielders positioning, etc.).
  7. SpicyGarvSauce
    Pavano, Liriano, & Duensing. Those are the 3 starting pitchers the Twins used in their last appearance in the postseason. Are Berrios, Odo, and __________ a better trio?
  8. SpicyGarvSauce
    James Baldwin. Henry Blanco.

    The way the ALDS schedule sets up, you play back to back games on the 4th and 5th - then an off day. Then back at it on the 7th. If the Twins were really considering a bullpen game, you could set yourself up for one in Game 2, and have the off day to get everyone rested. Obviously, this means Game 1 would have to go about as well as it possibly could with having to use limited bullpen arms. These conversations are fun - I just hope we aren't jinxing it.
  10. SpicyGarvSauce
    He did in his last start, against Washington.
  11. SpicyGarvSauce
    For some guys, sure. It is all relative. I especially liked the idea of sinker ballers sinking more when they were pitching on shorter rest (would hear this often when guys like Blackburn, SIlva, etc.) were heeling the rubber.
  12. SpicyGarvSauce
    Sounds like Marwin might be back tonight...? Need another good start out of Berrios.
  13. SpicyGarvSauce
    LaMarre has absolutely no future with this team. None. Kiriloff does - he is a more talented player than LaMarre, and is more likely to make an "impact" over the course of the next couple weeks. He will also get AB's and experience in an extremely valuable playing environment. This move just makes zero sense.
  14. SpicyGarvSauce
    Agreed - Saturday is very likely going to be an L with Clevinger on the mound.
  15. SpicyGarvSauce
    The fact that Ryan LaMarre is getting meaningful AB's in a pennant race instead of Kiriloff is all the proof I need that this organization/front office still doesn't get it.
  16. SpicyGarvSauce
    I really couldn't care less if the Twins hit another "bomba" as long as they win more games. This whole bomba thing has run its course, IMO. Win some damn ballgames and then talk to me.
  17. SpicyGarvSauce
    Let's pump the brakes on articles such as these, shall we?
  18. SpicyGarvSauce
    Oh, and Kohl Stewart has no place pitching in a MLB game that isn't an absolute blow out. Last night's game was not that, so why he was used is absolutely unacceptable by Baldelli and his staff. The guy isn't a major league pitcher, and should be outrighted as soon as possible.
  19. SpicyGarvSauce
    Tonight or Sunday are the only games in this series that the Twins have a chance at winning. They face Clevinger on Saturday, who absolutely dominates the Twins. That will be an L.
  20. SpicyGarvSauce
    Proof that not all things are not created equal.
  21. SpicyGarvSauce
    Clevinger is a stud. Can the Twins trade for him?
  22. SpicyGarvSauce
    Kaat is an amazing listen - really, one of the best.
  23. SpicyGarvSauce
    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?
  24. SpicyGarvSauce
    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.
  25. SpicyGarvSauce
    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.
