29 games last year were won or lost bt 5 or more runs. I think they could find 40/50 innings for him
-
Considering that there are reports that the Mariners are fielding offers on Castillo does Dipoto them come across as a liar thus hurting PR and should go to classes?
-
It is the gospel of group think wrapped around a negative attitude
-
There is a reason for why things were ordered the way they were. Congratulations, you proved my reasoning was correct
-
Winning does mute negative behavior a little. Some organizations do not appear to care. The Twins do not seem to be one of them
-
When the toxic player is at best an average player the negatives outweigh the positives. Witness how many times Pham has been signed to a 1 yr contract. St Louis kept him while he was productive
-
When the Pohlads bought the team it was mentioned that they could depreciate the players contracts that were signed. But not the future contracts, If this is so locking up the young core wold become a priority.. Even going over the budget could return value in the sale
-
Each team contributes equally to the pool. The Twins did not get back what they put in. It is great for the players that got the money.
-
The 1% is knowing how to use the players to the best of their ability. Last year would not be a good year to judge Baldelli. Given a right handed pinch hitter who couldn’t pinch hit and left handed batters who needed a pinch hitter. Then with pitching, with the 4-9 starters, having 4 out of 6 being unproven and the other 2 were an injury waiting to happen was a potential for disaster that did happen . To many his record says a failure. With what he had to work with he did well to keep them in contention.

It is kind of gross that the same spitball gets blown out be different people
-
A catcher that might profile similarly to Vazquez at 1/10 the salary. All it cost was a very high upside prospect.
-
Chicago now has 2 catching prospects. Have they soured on Quero?
-
The first 9 years Gardy’s teams averaged 89 wins a season, which is more than decent. From 2011 his teams averaged 66 wins. Did Grady suddenly become a bad manager or was the detriment things like Scott Diamond rather than Johan Santana was your ace?
-
Like every other club they have made moves that worked out well and others that have not. Who is pretending the Twins are good at it? Under Baldelli they have a .525 win %. Not great, not bad.
-
May the Twins continue to ignore the suggestions and prognostications of the fan bloggers in this scenario.

Hajjar was traded with another prospect for Brown. Like Steer and CES Brown had a promising year last year and a not so good second year. Hajjar was moved to the bullpen and did not have a good year so he was available. With his status as a high draft pick, being eft handed and breathing somebody was going to take a chance on him

Mr Lenz’s career as a talent evaluator either just hit a speed bump, or a crater of a pothole. Nobody picked his selections

Hajjar was selected by the Pirates from Cleveland

Can The Twins Ship The Sheriff to Sacramento?
old nurse replied to Cody Pirkl's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
If you are going to be hopeful for a trade with the A’s one needs to think bigger. The A’s seem to like lottery tickets in trades. Any four Fort Meyers players from the ones that cost less than a million to sign, Vazquez and Paddack for Shea Multiple problems solved. -
It is questionable whether or not the Twins believe Helman can be the right hand bat off the bench. The answer will be if the Twins take someone like Franklin if available. Considering the moves made last year, they probably will punch the LHP lottery ticket for a reliever. They might even grab a couple to improve their chance of winning
-
Christian Javier would be the reason not to sign an extension to pitchers. After signing his ERA went up to 4.58. The next year is TJ. Now this year will be the rehab and regain year.
-
It is also better off if other people were not thin skinned
-
When Pohlad bought the Twins there was an article about depreciating the players. You could depreciate the contracts you have when you purchase, but not the new ones. For a new owner there is more money to be made by keeping the player than having a bare cupboard for the new player
