    Petrified

    Yes. Always slow with his little foot dance
  3. Schmoeman5
    Elvin? What about Simon and Theodore. They've been really good. Oh wait, they're chipmunks not turtles. Read the thread wrong
  4. Schmoeman5
    And to answer your question. No Ryan is not an ace. But then I didn't think Berrios was either. But if you add someone close to that, the Twins would be in much better shape.

    I'll admit. The options are slim. But the Twins would misuse one if they had one. They dont/won't use anyone past 6 innings to avoid the dreaded 3rd time through the lineup. They never make their starters work out of a jam past the 5th. Look at yesterday's KC game. Singer cruising along pitching a SO. Metrics say get him out. Go to the pen and BOOM. There goes the game. KC went by the book and lost. So get a Montas Hendricks or Eovaldi type guy. Throw him out there evey 5th day to eat up innings. There's no Verlander Buehler Cole type of ace out there on a losing team that has a contract about to expire or will become a free agent at the end of this year to be had. But I would keep an eye out for possibly one of the Brewers starters. If they are in it at the trade deadline, forget it. If they're hovering near .500 they might want to unload

    The context in which Tim Anderson refers to himself as the new Jackie Robinson is that TA is trying to introduce more participants to baseball in the inner cities of America. Basketball and Football has replaced Baseball and he's trying to turn that around. That's admirable. But Donaldson is a Shi@ stirrer. I don't think he was being racist. He's been talking about it for 3 years now. Anderson obviously got fed up, but I think that Donaldson dropping his knee the week prior had more to do with it than the Jackie comment. Throw dinosaur Larussa into the mix and you've got spontaneous combustion. But hey, it rallied his troops for a couple game. As stated earlier by others. Much ado about nothing.

    I added 2 aces to the Phillies so that it was comparable to what Houston did. So let's go the opposite way. Let's take Carlton OFF the 1972 Phillies. Instead of losing 97 games. Will the replacement pitcher or pitchers win 10 or 15 of those games he won. That translates to 110 or 115 losses. Still a big difference. The argument that adding an ace is inconsequential is ridiculous
  8. Schmoeman5
    That's a terrible comparison. If you add an ace like that to a solid team it can take you over the proverbial hump. 2019 Astros already had Cole and Verlander and still went out and added Grenke. There's never too many good arms. The 72 Phillies were terrible. But let's say you added Ryan and Seaver they won't lose 97 games. That just shows what a dominant pitcher CAN do
  9. Schmoeman5
    How about Kyle Hendricks. I'm not sure about the cost. But I don't think it would be too steep. He's more consistent than Evaldi
  10. Schmoeman5
    Because he couldn't get out of doing his chores anymore. 5 years of frittering away his life for this nonsensical game Der Americans spiel
  11. Schmoeman5
    Not enough
  12. Schmoeman5
    Duran Duran did his job. Now hang on for the 9th inning Rollercoaster ?
  13. Schmoeman5
    Wow! That camo works so well I couldn't see that the umpires were wearing it too. Damn Chief. You was right
  14. Schmoeman5
    Would that be Glenfiddich or Glenlivet
  15. Schmoeman5
    You can't see, or you can't decide? Which
  16. Schmoeman5
    I see no correlation between those two, but I give
  17. Schmoeman5
    That ball was definitely off the plate, but remember it's Angel Hernandez
  18. Schmoeman5
    Because it clashes with the unis silly
  19. Schmoeman5
    And yes I think he's worth it. 100 games is less than 2/3 of a season. Harper Trout Betts etc are all making 30 million plus. So if he's effective for 100 games or more then he's worth it. IF Buxton had mostly good health in his career, he'd be gone because there's no way the Twins would offer him say 7 years for 250 million
  20. Schmoeman5
    What are the variables that measure WAR. I don't believe it's accurate at all. I think the Twins are 10 games over .500 with Buxton and 3 or 4 games under .500. So how to you get a factor of 1.6 when that's a 13 or 14 game difference. I never quite figured that one out.
  21. Schmoeman5
    That would be great. But if that's the Twins goal, to sign Correa to a long term deal is Lewis going back to AAA to learn the new position that he would be playing moving forward
  22. Schmoeman5
    Yep, he's regaining that MoY form all right
  23. Schmoeman5
    2019 Manager of the Year
  24. Schmoeman5
    That's why I said it was a shame for KC. I know Twin pitchers are ecstatic
  25. Schmoeman5
    It is a shame for KC. He destroys Twins pitching
