  1. Let's hope the Twins pitching isn't the antidote
  2. The last year or so the FO had made some really poor decisions regarding the pitching staff. There may be a thousand reasons for this, but this is the outcome. I really wonder if they can see beyond their spreadsheets. Do they ever look at mental toughness, work ethic, or other intangibles? Maybe they do, but if Dobnak is an example of this, well...
  3. Buxton...amazing talent, but a china doll
  4. Ultimately, the FO is open to criticism when they have an offseason like we just experienced. Sure, they thought they were making the correct moves. Frankly, I would probably give them a grade of "D". In professional sports, it's all about the results. They are not at fault for the injuries, nor are they responsible for drafts that took place before they were in place. But they still had a not so memorable offseason.
  5. Here are two alternate options: 1. Re-sign Rich Hill instead of Happ...probably save 5-6 million. Hill pitched well last season, and was a known quantity to the team. The FO probably could have got him for 2-3 million. 2. Use Ober, Dobnak, Thorpe as the 5th starter instead of Shoemaker. That trio would not be worse than Shoemaker. 3. The money saved on Happ & Shoemaker could have been used on bullpen help. We still wouldn't be 15 games over .500 if the Fo followed this path, but we would be in a better position than we are now. I sincerely hope that every extra dollar is used on pitching this offseason.
  6. Send Dobnak to Saint Paul for the remainder of the season(no matter how well he pitches there). Colome ONLY pitches in garbage time. Shoemaker DFA...my guess is the FO and Rocco refuse to release him due to his salary and being a free agent signing. They will give him every chance to stay with the team.
  7. It should be Shoemaker
  8. The book is out on Sano. Unless he can find a way to lay off that pitch, he will keep seeing it over and over.
  9. Happ bailed out there. It didn't look too serious with Kiriloff. Knowing Rocco, he'll miss a month.
  10. I think it's some form of blackmail
  11. Because we are the Yankees bitch
  12. Happ is not fooling anyone...except maybe himself
  13. Pretty simple, sounds like the numbers for a BAD team...which they are.
  14. We now have 2 starting pitchers with ERA's over 7. I think after tomorrow, Happ should have an ERA over 6.
  15. total crap...DFA Shoemaker. If someone is going to have a 7+ ERA, it might as well be Jax
  16. Twins hitters have walked 4 times in the last 4 games, including tonight
