  1. I was all in when he signed, but I am now not sure he is worth 35 million per year. I would think the Twins could use that money(and after the Sano buyout) to fill some other holes. It leaves a hole at SS, but frankly he hasn't earned that money in my book this season.
  2. Yes, but neither is good enough at this point. We are now 3 games back, and we keep losing ground. At the point when he returns it could very well be 5 or 6 games out.
  3. That ought to do it for tonight. Rest assured, the Astros are not done scoring
  4. No, with Sano on the shelf we need someone on the roster hitting under .100.
  5. And again, by Sept 8, they could be out of it for all practical matters.. Mathematically out of it means nothing. 6 games out with 12-15 left is out of it in my book.
  6. Considering the games left against teams as good or better than the Twins, I think Buxton, Correa, and Polanco will need to play like all stars. We cannot beat good teams unless they do.
  7. I frankly don't care either way if he plays at this point. He is on the 10 day IL right now, and who knows how long it will actually be before he returns(based on his history). I expect him to play again this season. if the FO determines he is healthy enough. All I'm saying is it won't matter. He has not been able to carry this team at any point this season, and he won't save this season unless he is firing on all cylinders. Even then, it probably won't be enough.
  8. Buxton has been playing throughout the last 80 games, but things are still moving in the wrong direction. At this point he is not healthy enough to carry this team. Let him play, but at the end of Sept it probably won't matter.
  9. I think the difference is perspective. You are hoping the team starts playing better than they have the last 80 games. Those guys coming back better get back soon, and better contribute ALOT from the moment they get back, or they could be much farther behind by Sept 8. They are only 2 games back, but they are moving in the wrong direction. They are not getting better, they are getting worse, game by game.
  10. No one is giving up, we are just looking at the make up of the team and being realistic. The 2009 and 2010 teams would destroy the team taking the field tonight.
  11. All I'm saying is I have seen nothing the past 80 games that makes me believe this team has anything left. If the team was healthy and guys performing, it would be different. This team the way it is will not be good enough to have any real success against any of the teams listed above. Those teams are just flat out better than the Twins in their current state. And weather the team agrees with my sentiment won't make them play any better. You may have a different assessment, but they are based on fact, not hope or lack there of.
  12. Yeah, as I stated in another thread, they might not be in contention by Sept 8. Too many injuries and under performance by others.
  13. I have a feeling when we get to those games against the Sox and Cle at the end of the season we will be more than 2 games back. And, unless this team shows us something they have not since, early June, there is no point in pushing Buxton. If we get swept by Houston this team will be on a 35-45 stretch. Which is half a season worth of games. Frankly I think the goose will be cooked by the end of the Yankee series.
  14. The series should put a stamp on the rest of the season. 62-61. By the end of the Yankee series, this will be over. Just too many injuries and guys not getting it done. I could see this team finishing 7-10 games out and we are looking at 75-80 overall wins. Next year is boom or bust my guess for the manager. If next year is bad, we can consider this a rebuild. Frankly, we may have already started the rebuild. I hope Correa opts out. $35 million for what we have received is an overpay. That 35 million can be used better than this. I'm glad the FO took the chance and signed him, but when the season is complete it will be time to move on.
  15. I think you meant the entire offense
  16. Rocco doesn't want to hurt his feelings and make him work too hard
  17. Beckham and Leon should set things up nicely for Arraez
  18. Yes, 6 years ago, and still hurt
  19. at least they scored a run tonight
  20. Don't need to predict the futre to see that massacre coming. Who is starting for the Twins that series?...LOL
  21. enjoy the close game, there won't be any in Houston
  22. this has to be some kind of joke, right, this team just can't be this bad
