  1. I think it is up in the air as to who would/will be sent down when Arcia is considered healthy. Herrmann could stay and Pinto could go, Herrmann could stay and Arcia could go or Herrmann could stay and Bartlett could go. Of course, if Herrmann is 0-10 or 1-20 and underwhelming as an defensive OF, it's easy to send him down. The Twins might want to send Arcia out for a short rehab assignment even if he's only out for two weeks because he never really got going in the regular season. The need is there for an outfielder and the lack of a backup to Hicks remains, but Herrmann does provide versatility.
  2. Blair Walsh with a late field goal to ice it for Minnesota.
  3. There's your reason to bench "Flori", he's lousy at instructing players to slide. Seriously, this isn't the first time Plouffe didn't slide when he should have. I guess he got to the plate fractionally quicker than sliding.
  4. Tito finally challenges what appears to be a totally proper call.
  5. This is a really long game, but I didn't want to do my taxes anyway.
  6. Hey, when do we start worrying about a suddenly useless bullpen?
  7. OK, I'm starting to believe the Colabello has a chance. Jason Bartlett says thank you very much.
  8. It was a woman, you know. Her name is June Foray and she would be about 96 years old. I believe she is still alive.
  9. Unseriously, Atchison looks like a couple guys on my slow-pitch softball team (yeah, we're old). Seriously, Nolasco couldn't get anything down and had real problems locating his fastball. Bartlett reminds me of Nishi but at a different position, and Escobar should have been put in left field.
  10. You know you have power when Dick calls your drive to the outfield a home run.
  11. The PP says that if Arcia can't go by Wednesday, he'll go on the DL. I have been thinking about transactions and also the two vacancies on the 40-man--from within the organization, Mastro looks like the best bet. The Twins can claim a player or two who might be better fits.
  12. I was on the Bonafacio bandwagon. One week doesn't a season make, but he is off to a nice start.
  13. No and not Bartlett. Florimon had time to recover from his appendectomy and he is running fine and throwing and swinging well. He should not have been disabled. Florimon is 1-12 with five K's. Hardly a great start, but he hasn't looked overmatched on every AB. Mauer and Dozier started out as bad or worse, and so have a number of prominent players. Give Florimon at least another week before howling for a replacement. There is nothing to show that Bartlett is not used up.
  14. Let's see, Suzuki gets three starts and is 0-3. Pinto has two starts and is 2-0. I know, I know, but just sayin'.
  15. BTW, the K's are not diminishing.
  16. Gatorade shower for Gardy w/ a win?
  17. Also, BTW, Plouffe looks quite a bit better at third IMHO.
  18. BTW, trade Duensing now! His value has to be at it's peak.
  19. Well a clean sixth didn't happen. But no damage done.
  20. Yeah, pretty consistent. I'd say more than slightly tight.
  21. OK, any Cleveland hitter should deduct 20 points from their BA by season's end.
  22. Nice swing Nyjer! Probably gets a hit.
