  1. teams out of the race will be involved in trades come the offseason. Trading to a team like SEA is not doin your organization justice in finding the best deal.
  2. Elizabethon: 7-day DL: J.T. Chargois, Tyler Duffey, Kelvin Mention Are Chargois & Duffey just being kept off the roster to reduce their innings??? Where is Luke Bard??? Rochester: 7-day DL: Kyle Gibson, Carlos Gutierrez, Matt Maloney, Lester Oliveros, Anthony Slama Gibson starts his rehab next TUE in GCL Maloney, IMO, was told to go on DL--possibly be needed later-- or be released Whats the word on Oliveros...is it a UCL tear?? Guitierrez...any news on the shoulder???
  3. the Twins have taken the stance that AAA is for the washed up vet hitters & AA is the place for prospcts to play fulltime. They let Chris get a full yr in there last yr to get his ABs....no AAA promotion. He is better than a washed up vet, but they believe he has done all he needs in minors.
  4. to a lesser extent....Daniel Santana also.
  5. ANY MN Twins info/baseball talk in general from Paul Allen should be disregarded immediately. He & the entire KFAN staff would be laughed off this board for their lack of knowledge on the sport. Stick to football.
  6. .196 risp----.148 runners on base vs. 330 w/bases empty. Also 17/35 for a .486 BAve 1.138slgg on the first pitch Nice to be picky about him tho
  7. You dont remember Terry Ryans track record on trades? Span will be dealt & Sept will see a Arcia/Benson/Hicks trio in Rf/cf/lf w/Revere & Josh DHin more
  8. As a Mauer fan....ive come to realize he wont hit 28HRs again but i want more doubles. In 2009, many claim his HRs came from left field in Dome & that was true of many of his 16 dome homers. This isnt happening at Target Field & is the common HR excuse. He also hit 12 road homers......what happenned to that power? 23m isnt the reason i get upset with him ..... its the ISO power numbers....mix in a double
  9. Also very happy with the 18steals.....3 short of season high......2 yesterday leads me to believe the ankle is good
  10. GCL had sunday off......hopfully Sano & Hicks turn it on the 2nd half
  11. Uproar...dont think so. Think AJ deserves it over Mauer & Willingham over Adam Dunn, thats fine....but not an uproar
  12. see what happens with Blackburn on TUE.....bombed again & I can see the move to send him out & bring Cole up for the weekend. Nick needed to stay with em as they didnt have a starter for TUE w/o him.
  13. anyone know what happenned to Levi Michaels on SAT....hit in top of first & left game
  14. more baby steps.... Last start on TUE....Ft Myers season high 6IP/ 6K (7h & 6er allowed) SUN....6IP 7h 1er 2bb 1k......best start of the year in High A
  15. surprised nobody had him yet. 23 yr old LH hitting OF was a 48th round pick by Tampa in 2009 and a 5th round pick by MN in 2010. The 6'1 200lb Roberts hit .416/.575/.746 as a jr for High Point University (NC)..3rd team All American 59gms 209Abs 88runs 10doubles 1triple 16hr 69rbi 36/39sb 53bb 35k 25HBP (which have become a calling card) Assigned to ELIZ as a 21 yr old, he dominated as a solid 5th round college player should 35gms 128ABs.336/.444/.547 30runs 10doubles 5HR 17RBI 5/7sb 21bb 29k 4hbp His first yr in Beloit ,after not joining the team till May 1 & despite playing only 7gm after July 6, was solid. 68gms 222ABs .302/.443/.446 55runs 12doubles 4triples 4hr 34rbi 9/13sb 28bb 48k 29hbp This season, Roberts was kept in Beloit for a 2nd season but didnt begin till May 23 due to injuries. 25gms 86ABs .302/..400/.477 15runs 6doubles 3HR 14rbi 5/7sb 14bb 11k 5hbp.....thru July 1 2 season @ Beloit 93gms 308ABs .302/.439/.455 70runs 18doubles 4triples 7hr 48rbi 14/20sb 42bb 59k 34hbp As a 5th round pick & 23 yr old, why hasnt he moved up.....he should be more of a prospect & he has performed. His .894 Beloit OPS is actually higher than Miguel Sano's .848. Is MN sticking him in Beloit cause Lance Ray (.204) Angel Morales (.213) Danny Rams (.194) & Dan Ortiz (.274) are blocking him????
  16. if Gardy looked at numbers, Drew Butera would never get into a game. Luckily for him, he looks at outside things....like 'is he a friend with his dad' or 'has this guy kissed my ass enough'.......we wonder why this time has only won one playoff series despite being ahead in several & favored in others
  17. Hauser is the perfect example of how slowly MN promotes guys thru the system despite the player earning it. Matt is 24 yrs old & has spent the better parts of 2 yr in Ft Myers to great results 50gms (over 2 yrs) 88.2IP 69h .210 BAA 2.23 ERA 86k 32bb....how much more does he need to prove??? Currently New Britian is at 23 total players (11 pitchers) & they refuse to promote him
  18. Agree that AJ deserves it over Joe & Willingham deserves it over Adam Dunn, who is actually listed as backup DH (anyone can do that). Mauers comments about the selection show how out of touch he is as he talked about Twins who should have been considered & mentioned Denard Span...WTF!!!
  19. Valencia may actually be a better bench player for Twins right now than Parmelee (who needs ABs more than Danny). He could DH/1B vs LHP when Justin needs time off. Would only be a pure backup to Plouffe
  20. So you must think like the Twins age 20---APP Lg 21--Beloit...still young 22--Ft Myers---still young 23--New Brit---still young 24--ROC---about right 25--Majors/ROC for next 2 yrs--too old 26--our of options---waived
  21. Hicks finished June w/.309/.406/.455 1hr 7rbi 13k 9bb in 16gms despite missing 9gms with an ankle injury. vs RHP .246/.350/.395 in 167ABs vs LHP .299/.365/.463 in 67ABs
  22. Goodrum 4/5 with a cycle
  23. That was him....he's currently still in AA for OAK (was a 2nd round pick, so thats disappointing for a 24yr old) but playing ok hitting .289/.375/.428 5 hr 29rbi in 49gms....34k 25bb 4/7sb 7errors
  24. I want Joe Mauer to catch.....not Mark Grace at 1B/DH----pay is secondary
  25. not at all a Mauer hater, WAY more of a fan...but cannot stand that he cannot hit for extra base power (NOT homeruns...doubles). Hard to complain right now, but his ISO of .123 is atrocious. Stay healthy & catch more. A singles hitting batting champ is something Id give up for an everyday catcher
