    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?

    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".
  5. chinmusic
    He's in on his post season stats alone. A no brainer.

    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.....

    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.
  11. 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.

    Funny stuff! Nice segue into the 2nd half.

    Great group photo! Is that a JD lookalike in the Grand Drunk Railroad T-shirt? Sure looks like Donaldson.
  14. chinmusic
    Thanks, as always, for the week in review, Nick. You didn't mention Donaldson. Wonder if he might be moved, or shopped? Guess it's goodbye to Messieurs Cruz and Simmons. Kepler interesting as a sleeper candidate, as you say. I hope, and actually believe, that Berrios will finish this season as a Twin. The team can compete again next year, at least in theory.

    Wonder what the average length of double header games is at 7 innings? I enjoyed last night's game. Well played and crisp.
  16. chinmusic
    I see it as recovery time for his current hip flexor and wrist issues?
  17. chinmusic
    Buxtonless

    Couldn't agree more!
  19. chinmusic
    Take the over!

    June 15, 2020- season not yet started June 15, 2021- Twins window for post season contention closed?
  21. chinmusic
    Actually, the comment was directed at me. It was a misrepresentation. You should be more careful about the wording of your posts.
  22. chinmusic
    Where did I say "they need to sign them" ?
  23. chinmusic
    I agree. I hope that next year the Twins can contend. I certainly hope they can retain Berrios for the rest of this season, at least. Losing Buxton would also be crushing, Pretty sure Cruz will be gone by the trade deadline, which makes sense. Imagine he'll go to a playoff bound AL team, and good for him. He deserves it. It's worth noting that with the epic failures of so many of the FO's recent moves, the Cruz acquisition has been an unqualified success.
  24. chinmusic
    Berrios is an awesome fielder. Gold glove calibre. Pineda's fielding gaffe last night was cringeworthy. Too bad. Off topic, BUT, another area of concern is speed. Cruz and Donaldson on the basepaths is not a good look.
  25. chinmusic
    It's one thing to have stats for days spent on the IL. But what about the value of those players? Buxton out for a month is not the same as Cave. How many teams have the impact equivalent of Buxton/Kepler/Garver/Arraez out at once. Maeda too. It's devastating.
