    Give him a hit!

    Give Mauer credit for sacrificing his body there.

    This has become a longer response than I intended so I'm going to make it into blog form. I've never done a blog on TD so I'll go about finding out how to do that.

    Arcia til Sano arrives.

    Longest game thread of the year?

    Hawaiian Punch!

    Our bench is so awesome that Escobar is our top pinch hitting threat against lefties.
  8. notoriousgod71
    Hicks is "Mr. March".
  9. notoriousgod71
    Past a diving Mauer!
  10. notoriousgod71
    De aza!

    Nolasco 3.43 whip.

    Gardy the mad genius for batting ZUKE second.

    Don't worry. It's a base hit. A major league 3b can't be expected to field a ground all right to him.

    #1 seems very unrealistic. Even if Mauer manages 155 games, 80 XBH is an incredible total. Are you thinking Mauer will hit 40 doubles and 40 homeruns or 60/20? Will he suddenly hit 15 triples? I would take 60 XBH out of Mauer and call it a success.

    It depends. Am I allowed to spend someone else's money as I see fit or do I have to keep the payroll as it is? And this isn't just a 2014 issue. If the Twins had bothered to add any significant pieces last season our predicament wouldn't be as dire.

    When you put it that way, I can clearly see there is simply no room for an addition to this lineup.
  17. notoriousgod71
    Over a full season that's almost 200 innings which is apparently a workhorse these days.
  18. notoriousgod71
    No, but then again Bartlett has proven he's not finished either.
  19. notoriousgod71
    Deduno dominant once again. He should be our ace, not our mop up man.
  20. notoriousgod71
    Since I am not allowed to say "now" I will say I have not had one....
  21. notoriousgod71
    Always a good sign when you need two long relievers on opening day.
  22. notoriousgod71
    Funny, because Gardy hated him when we had Castro. Wonder what he did in a year and a half to earn Gardy's unconditional love.

    This overtakes Erickson for Klingenbeck as JR's new favorite trade ever.

    Just to clarify... he would be the correct term! While I didn't necessarily specify wins/losses, I would rather lose 120 games with rookies that have some potential than 95 with a roster of guys that won't be with the team in a year. But I think giving ABs to Kubel, Willingham, Suzuki hurt us in both regards. We have completely tanked the past three Septembers, so it's not just a 2013 problem. The Twins go through starting pitchers at a ridiculous rate due to injuries/ineffectiveness/trades. I'm assuming our opening day rotation will be Nolasco, Hughes, Correia, Pelfrey, Gibson. Who is the second wave when someone gets injured or Correia is salary dumped at the deadline? Meyer, Diamond, Deduno? If Deduno starts the year in the pen, I think it's less likely that he be summoned into the starting rotation mid-season as he will need to rebuild his endurance which is a difficult thing to do mid-season. Who is 4th in line? 5th in line? I really wish I was more of an optimist, but in this case I am unable to have any positive feelings about this roster (outside of Arcia's hopeful development).

    Who said the Twins never have any good luck?
