    Well according to FAngraphs Alex Gordon is the second highest poisition player in WAR this season even though no GM would ever draft him second. Jason Heyward is tenth. Ben Zobrist 11. Just when you begin to think the only thing that matters in WAR is defense you get to Yan Gomes at 24 who throws every other ball into center field. All of these guys are rated higher than Miguel Cabrera. My other least favorite statisticis xFIP. Some uppity fangrapsh writer dared to call me an idiot for not agreeing with him that Strasburg was having the best season of any pitcher this season (at the time he was leading in xFIP. At no point during this season has Strasburg been close to the best pitcher in baseball when you have Kershaw, Wainwright, Cueto, Hernandez, and now Kluber joining the party.

    Pierzynski a great teammate? Imagine that. I will always remember Allen stealing second base off Doug Jones as Jones was just wandering around near the mound. He was a fun player to watch.

    Absolutely not. He is the guy that traded Lawton in the middle of a playoff race.
  4. notoriousgod71
    He needs twelve more years of seasoning.

    The only one I knew was Rogers.

    Suzuki's interview is priceless: "Playing against the Twins they're always a winning team.... besides the last couple of years." "Tommy (Milone) is a gamer. He won't light up the radar gun or be out on the mound pumping his fist." It's like Gardy and Ryan were whispering in his ear how to answer.

    The Cubans are destroying Correia. Kim Jong just continues to mess with the wrong nations.

    What is everyone's favorite Guerrier memory? This sounds awful to say but there isn't one Guerrier memory that really stands out for me? The only thing I can think of is his inability to keep AROD in the park and Gardy's insistence on bringing him in to face him. It seems like a shame to remember him that way because Guerrier was really a good pitcher for us for many years. I wish he had a defining moment during his Twins career.

    This concept would take as much conditioning for the managers as it would the pitchers. The seventh inning comes along and most managers are just looking for a reason to match-up, pitch count and numbers be-damned.

    I started to type a response five different time but each time I get more and more angry with Darvish for suggesting this.

    I hope we trade Willingham for Duke Welker.

    Fly ball off Fuld's chest. Single.

    I wonder how many people get this joke.
  15. notoriousgod71
    Someone suggested that instead of counting number of home runs to determine the winner they should tally distance.

    Steinbrenner absolutely despised Peter Angelos and the Orioles. Joel Sherman wrote an excellent book about the '96 Yankees ("Birth of a Dynasty") and a lot of it focuses on the Yankees-Orioles rivalry. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good book (I hate the Yankees and I have read it twice). Yes, I realize this brawl was from '98 but it still applies.

    Jose Abreu

    I like home runs more as they get you twice as many bases.
  19. notoriousgod71
    Terry, strike while the iron is hot! Trade them Correia!
  20. notoriousgod71
    Pretty star studded rosters.

    Ramsey drew Tim Tebow comparisons at Florida State, where he stood out as a star athlete with obvious leadership skills and strong Christian faith. The Rhodes Scholar nominee turned down second-round money from the Twins as a 22nd-round pick in 2011, then went 23rd overall as a senior the following June and signed for $1.6 million.

    Unfortunately we have strict pitch counts so Dozier would get no more than 95.
  24. notoriousgod71
    Do we get special name tags: "Hello, my name is __notoriousgod71____"?

    But did they tweak them to how they were when he was successful or did they tweak them to add more sink?
