    And I think he only had one terrible play running the bases…..or did I miss some?
  2. yeahyabetcha
    Today’s outing should quiet the Happ haters for a while.
  3. yeahyabetcha
    If he would return a above average prospect, sure take it . Otherwise, why can’t be the main DH next year and backup at 2b, SS and 3b?
  4. yeahyabetcha
    Berrios
  5. yeahyabetcha
    Kirilloff might be a better hitter, but Larnach stays healthier and is a better outfielder. Regardless, I hope these two along with Buxton and Donaldson are batting 2-5 in next year’s lineup.
  6. yeahyabetcha
    I agree. Polanco projects to be the starting 2b next year, why move him back to SS? The Twins will most likely be bringing in a free agent at SS for next year, maybe Simmons, maybe someone else. Why mess with a move that seems to have worked this year??
  7. yeahyabetcha
    If able to trade for value go for it. But I don’t find it wise to just dump them.
  8. yeahyabetcha
    And neither do I share your desire to be in forever rebuild mode
  9. yeahyabetcha
    For this year? Since the only real SS on the roster is Simmons, maybe trading him for a bag of balls or whatever outer fringe prospect some team is willing to give up isn’t a great idea
  10. yeahyabetcha
    What benefit does moving Polanco off of second base provide? Does he not look like a good 2022 option there to you?
  11. yeahyabetcha
    I think it is ok to still try to win some games.
  12. yeahyabetcha
    Because Celestino is not ready to be a starting major league center fielder, Polanco should not be an every day SS, Arraez is not an everyday 3b, Sano is not an everyday Dh and Gordon is a ?
  13. yeahyabetcha
    I hope this is not the case.
  14. yeahyabetcha
    Pitching wins, but is very expensive when buying in the free agent market . A starting short stop would be be my top priority, unless Royce is deemed ready to fill that spot. And then pitching. My question is. In this era of getting 5 innings from a starter and then running out 4-5 relievers every game, wouldn’t bullpen arms be a better investment than throwing 10-15 million at a starter?
  15. yeahyabetcha
    Wade vrs Anderson??? Should anyone really care?
  16. yeahyabetcha
    To say “defense doesn’t matter “ was maybe a bit harsh. But the signing of these two aging players has not worked to help upgrade the defense. In fact, the eye test and a lot of statistics seem to indicate it has regressed.
  17. yeahyabetcha
    I voted to fire both. Not a fan of this brand of analytics, where only home runs matter and defense is an afterthought. And pitching? I have not been able to figure out what exactly the plan is there. Not fun to watch this team.
  18. yeahyabetcha
    Maybe the hitters should be more concerned about making less errors/poor plays in the field and inability to hit in the clutch or situationally, than the bullpen needing to throw 5 shutout innings every night….
  19. yeahyabetcha
    What is Rocco thinking?? 7 innings and 99 pitches from a starting pitcher?? Berrios better get a couple extra days off after such a taxing effort.
  20. yeahyabetcha
    If anyone can explain ANY of the pitching changes tonight, I would like to hear it. I need to learn the analytics to explain it….
  21. yeahyabetcha
    1: Terry Ryan got run out of town for such thoughts. And he was a much better judge of talent than you and me will ever be. 2: Too bad Gordon or Polanco can not play a passable SS. No spot for Gordon on the active roster one Arraez comes back 3: Shoemaker is a proven MLB pitcher, Ober made two starts and hasn’t got past the 5 inning 4: weird how the bullpen looks better when Rogers and Duffey are getting people out. Robles is a little scary to me i will take the over....forever an optimist
  22. yeahyabetcha
    Like it not or not he may still be the best option in the short run. Several of the other options that many are trying to rush to the major leagues are either hurt, coming off injuries, or simply too inexperienced. Shoemaker has had major league success in the past, granted it has been a few years.
  23. yeahyabetcha
    Simmons was brought in to provide SS defense, he has done that. None of the Polanco, Arraez or Gordon trio would be an upgrade. Rooker hasn’t been very good or all that healthy at AAA, he does not look to be an upgrade to anyone on the current active roster at this time. Looks like Ober and Jax will be first in line to get major league looks. I like these moves, but don’t think Happ or Shoemaker are, or should be, done getting starts.
  24. yeahyabetcha
    Trading every available bit of current mlb talent for prospects and rushing that prospect to the big leagues is not a good plan . IMO
  25. yeahyabetcha
    He reminded me of Eddie Rosario, cept Eddie has a better bat.
