  1. The need to add another short season league in the worst way. Either NYPL or NWL or something.
  2. I really don't think Ryan wants to do this anymore (being GM) He's a dinosaur in this business and he either is too old, too uneducated or just don't want to adapt. If the Pohlads can't see this then God help this franchise.
  3. Since when is Bruno the one who got Revere hitting?
  4. Name me one other play who went from being labeled a AAAA player to a viable starting MLB player during the Epstein regime in either Boston or Chicago? Just cause LaHair came up and did something nice for the Cubs doesn't change the fact that there's player good enough to dominate AAA and suck balls in the majors.
  5. David Ortiz-1696 at-bats as a Twin
  6. Bald up north...bald down south.
  7. So to summerize...Nick Blackburn sucks.
  8. I know this was painful to type.
  9. Middling prospect.
  10. Your manager of the year Ron Gardenhire.
  11. BTW wasn't Blackburn in the pen a few years back and just as god afwul as he was in the rotation? Ah...the coveted Gardy "Circle of Trust"
  12. Think about that, every hitter Nick Blackburn has ever faced is pretty much Torii Hunter (sans BA)
  13. As craptastic as Blackburn has been and will continue to be, what are the other options? The Twins dug there own grave with the lack of depth in the starting rotation and now they're at the point where they have no other options but to throw Blackburn out there and cross your fingers.
  14. No doubt it was a weak draft class, but there's a reason theses guys are in the pen. Either their stuff plays up in the pen (see Perkins) they don't have a usable 3rd pitch or medical reason that doesn't allow them to throw 200 innings. NTM yeah these guys are mid-90s outta the pen but once there in the rotation is back down the Twins typical 89-92. I'm sure they'll deploy a few of these guys in the rotation, but I have serve doubts. It just seems to be a ass backward gameplan to rebuilding the depth of starters in the Twins system.
  15. What am I breaking new ground here, Mackey's the worst. Decent writer...pretty crappy at everything else.
  16. Has anyone from the Twins org came out and gave a reason why they took flawed college relievers in that high in the draft when they need starters (projected starters) in the worst way?
  17. Tweet from that idiot Mackey
  18. You mean BA who ranked him 10th in a weak Twins system last season. I'm not saying he's some fringe top 30 prospect like Tolbert was back in the day. But anyone touting this kids as an MLB starting SS is smoking drugs or an idiot.
  19. The one thing that really concerns me and anyone who's rooting for him is his complete lack of controling the strike zone. In the minors he was getting on-base alot, now he can't take a walk to save his life. If he's not getting on-base the rest of his game is fringy at best.
  20. Morneau, Cuddyer and Kubel were all top prospects, Doz is a middle prospect at best that if he turns into a utility player is a success for the organization.
  21. I gotta image they'll send down Manship and maybe even RObertson to get some fresh arms for the weekend. Guerra time?
  22. Either way I'm still waiting for teh .890 OPS SS with a plus glove to emerge.
  23. Thank goodness Gardy for that left on left matchup vs. AJ.
  24. You know Gardy has gotta burn through atleast 2-3 more arms.
  25. Bring back BYTO cause you are lying your ass off right now.
