    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.

    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!

    Hopefully, their breakup will be more amicable than Dean and Jerry.
  4. chinmusic
    Yeah, but is that a good thing?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Betcha Dick Bremer's thrilled about this one?
  9. chinmusic
    Garver will be missed, but I like that the Twins are getting younger and faster.

    Man of steel....Zach Granite Greatest attribute has got to be the name?

    Baby, you can drive my car?

    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!

    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.

    At first I thought I read "Twins Inked Cy Young winner Robbie Ray" Alas , it was merely "linked to". Wishful thinking. I'm still on my Buxton high?
  15. chinmusic
    Wow. My day just got so much better! Kinda stunned. I was SURE he was gone. Going to get more details on the signing, but man, this is just awesome news. A generational talent? I think so. Cheers, everyone.

    Also, a no brainer for the Twin's hall of "shame on us".
  17. chinmusic
    He's in on his post season stats alone. A no brainer.
  18. chinmusic
    Really too bad. What a sad season...

    Ain't it the truth! Hard to hear Braves fans chanting "Ed-die, Ed-die", though. But it WAS exciting. He is a likeable, entertaining, and talented (when focused) baseball player.

    The Twins screwed Buxton on service time a few years ago. Ever since then, I've doubted he'd remain in Minnesota. I'm hoping that he remains a Twin next year, or at least til the trade deadline. Why would he not want to test the market? Just gonna enjoy him this weekend.

    Elvis said (sang) it best. Don't be cruel.....
  22. chinmusic
    Totally agree. I've noticed that whenever there is a meeting on the mound, Polanco keeps his mouth shut. This is hardly an indictment. He is a valuable team member, but his leadership , I think, is by example.
  23. chinmusic
    Yeah, seems to me there have been a number of these. The coffin is hermetically sealed, yet they continue to hammer in nails. That said, hope for the future.
  24. chinmusic
    Funny stuff! Nice segue into the 2nd half.
  25. chinmusic
    Great group photo! Is that a JD lookalike in the Grand Drunk Railroad T-shirt? Sure looks like Donaldson.
