    Maglie did not regularly pitch in the majors until he was nearing his mid 30s. I hope Ryan has better luck than that

    So what if he has a lot of hair.

    In regards to many of the starter or relievers in the Twins system who are not also injured, Is it that you do not accept the notion that you do not ask people to do what they are not capable of or is it that you have some other issue. If it is the latter, just PM me

    The talent level of the pitchers in the Twins’ system is nowhere near the talent level of Griffey as a position player

    In a month you can lose the pennant one month out of a year you can get away with most. Missing a month is not playing most of the season. Darn nit picky people on the internet

    My parents never said there was a Santa Claus. Once again, Wrong. A lot of people were pontificating of an extension. I did not accuse them of not thinking. However, claiming that Berrios wouldn't sign would only take reading the right articles over the last few years. I am sorry that I accused you of reading other sources

    Fake statistics. Gotta love it. Never mind that Buxton is quoted saying he wants to stay with the Twins. Berrios had stated in the past that he wanted to test free agency and get as much money as he can. It really did not take much thinking to come up with he would be traded.

    Your three points of Burton’s thinking is like Vodka Daves imminent trade pots

    That is how it is supposed to work. The person forgot to mention that you are also supposed to pick the correct person in the rule V draft we were year

    Wow, a better record when you give up 5 or fewer runs. In a season filled with injuries people should be amazed that they has that many under 5 run games and the corresponding record in said games.
  12. old nurse
    Johan Santana was a stashed 21 year old rule V prospect who had not pitched above A ball. There are zero similarities in his path and Duran’s. Other than parent organization name.

    I think for the season you can throw the stats out. Once the sell off started it becomes spring training for next year. The pitchers seem to be left in to pitch counts. Outfielders are playing to determine if they are viable for next year

    You provide what reasoning that sets Miranda apart from any other player other than not having failure at the major league level. Nobody has proven they have an upside as the 4th outfielder better than Cave.. The shortstops at AAA have an upside? Throwing away the remainder of this season has an upside? That is logical?
  15. old nurse
    Immediate gratification is what many want. It is an ugly look. Miranda's OPS at AAA is not really any different than Rooker's, Celestino's or Cave's at AAA this year. I have not heard one bit of reasoning why one should expect anything out of Miranda when others with the same OPS this year have failed miserably on the MLB level this year

    Miranda could always just catch the light rail to Target Field

    The cold reminder on these list is that Arraez and Taylor have been as valuable as Buxton and Sano without spending time anywhere near their level on past lists.
  18. old nurse
    Major league average is 23%. The closer to average Sano can get the more productive he will be. The point he would be considered very productive is subjective. When he is moved closer to the 3 spot in the lineup would be the indicator for very

    The best young shortstops are not available. Tattis, Bichette and Adames are the young shortstops. The listed free agents are getting to the point they will be past their prime with a long term deal. Look how quick so many middle infielders have dropped performance after 30. They may all be looking for that big payday but I don’t think anyone will go much more than 3 or 4 years
  20. old nurse
    Thinking Moran is major league ready and potentially very useful bullpen arm he should be rated higher. Look at this year’s bullpen to see the value in relievers
  21. old nurse
    Yet for all of the consternation about Arraez playing someplace, it is all how you want to look at it. Take a look at those players with 100 total AB for this year, 3b Arraez sits as the 17th best. OPS this year of the 61 players . 19th for the 71 players for LF, and 21 for the 68 at 2B. Below average number, above the median for players playing. 128 place out of the 399 players with 100 AB Arraez is the utility player. Compare him to the other who do what he does

    On April 3 and 4 the Twins were on course to be in first place. They are on course to finish the season. They could be the worst team, they could be the 13-14 worst team. The baseball seasons for prospective draftees I has another full season to go. These maybe the 5 best, maybe not

    My quote was from the teachings led by a man of God, an educator, nurse and one heck of a person in addition to all of that. Who am I call the most honest person I know misquoting someone.
  24. old nurse
    If the negotiations with Buxton were such they did not think they could sign him he might have been traded, The Berrios trade depends on how the prospects pan out. If Berrios is adamant about testing free agency the team can try their luck then. It could end up a real steal. The rest of the trades are something for nothing, and the prospects are free
  25. old nurse
    Maybe it is thrifty of the Twins not to have to fly a player back and forth to the minor league team. The author and editors made the game story about potential trades, I can make a joke of things, too
