Let's Cut Miguel Sanó Some Slack
chinmusic replied to Matthew Taylor's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Yeah, sure. But other right fielders (like Kepler, who's taller than Grossman) would likely have caught it. The difference between a win and a loss. -
Should Byron Buxton Shift to Designated Hitter?
chinmusic replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
and even stuff NOT involving baseball. Didn't he chip a tooth eating a steak? I say let him do his thing. He's 10 games into a 7 year deal. How awesome is that? -
What Twins records could Byron Buxton break over a full season?
chinmusic commented on tlkriens's blog entry in Travis Kriens
Easily attainable, I would think. Surprising that the Twins have never had a 30/30 player. Without checking, I'm guessing that the five 30 hr bomba squad guys did not even combine for 30 stolen bases. A healthy Buxton might even challenge the 35/35 plateau. -

Four Opening Day Overreactions
chinmusic replied to renabanena's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I really think you've got to consider cool temperatures as a major factor in this low scoring season opener. I live in Toronto, and the roof was closed at the Rogers Centre, so I think the temp is 72 degrees F. And just as an aside in the game here, Jose Berrios (whoa!) and Mitch Garver (wow!)- 25 replies

Twins to Sign RHP Chris Archer to One-Year Deal
chinmusic replied to Nick Nelson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
No, I do not. You know, when they negotiated Buxton's deal, you just had the sense there would be more to come. After Correa, I still have that feeling. Maybe the 28 man roster(through April?) buys a bit of time. The expanded playoffs too. Still, they need another quality arm sooner rather than later. It's hard playing catch up. -
How Should the Twins Arrange the Top of the Order?
chinmusic replied to Cody Christie's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
If Buxton leads off and Arraez bats in the 2 hole, AND Buxton stays healthy.... With a typical Arraez AB, Buxton should steal many bases. Hope they give it a try.- 51 replies

Indeed! Maybe Gray debuts today as well as Correa? -
Just How Good Is Carlos Correa?
chinmusic replied to Nash Walker's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I'm reading "The Baseball 100" (Joe Posnanski) He ranks Steve Carlton #63 all time. In 1972, the Phillies actually won only 59 games, with Lefty winning 27! What an eye-popping stat! -

Ghost Runner Rule Back to Haunt in 2022
chinmusic replied to Melissa Berman's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Yeah, but is that a good thing? -
They’re baaaack! Ghost runners in extras.
chinmusic replied to stringer bell's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Surprised and disappointed that it's being reinstated. I'd rather see the game called a draw after 9 innings. At least that's not fake. -
Falvey Shows Flexibility in Twins Decisions
chinmusic replied to Ted Schwerzler's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Berrios is 6 or 7 years younger than Donaldson, and has never missed a start. Donaldson, on the other hand, has chronic calf issues, and has spent a lot of time on the IL. Even when in the lineup, he's often hobbling on the basepaths.- 33 replies

There may be more at play than $. Age and probability of injury, obviously. For all his mentoring skills and work ethic, who knows if there was friction between Donaldson and significant unknowns. Only speculating, but possibly a factor as well.

Assessing the Twins Garver for Kiner-Falefa Trade
chinmusic replied to Ted Schwerzler's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Yeah, I'd like to think that the Kiner-Falefa trade (which I like) is just a piece of the puzzle. I believe that there will be a significant pitching acquisition(s), way more than likely by trade.- 57 replies

Garver will be missed, but I like that the Twins are getting younger and faster.

Twins to Retire Jim Kaat’s Number
chinmusic replied to Ted Schwerzler's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Carew won SEVEN batting titles as a Twin. I think we can let him slide. And speaking of sliding, he did a lot of that too...like into the plate when he was stealing home. 7 TIMES in one season...sheesh! -
What Might Buxton's Future Production Look Like?
chinmusic replied to Ted Schwerzler's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
The other side of that coin would be Eric Davis. Healthy and productive earlier in his career, and then somewhat derailed in the second half, a la Buxton I think it is , to some extent, random. There's really only one way to go on the injury front with Buxton, and that's up. His migraines are one thing I'd be concerned about. That said, I'm betting on his cashing in on some of those incentives. Only time will tell.- 17 replies
