  1. LA needs pitching desperately , it's worth asking and isn't Duran or Jax considered a star , more so Duran ... Don't under estimate the urgency the dodgers have to repeat as world series champions ... If there desperate, let's see how desperate ...
  2. I concur , we trade one or the other , do not do a package deal and short change ourselves , if your trading both , do it separatelyand get a better return .... If 1 of Jax or Duran is traded , I'm not trading players with team control for prospects years away , retooling is trading for major league ready plays ... Here's my proposal , we just finished with the dodgers , trade one or the other we are retooling not rebuilding we want right handed outfield ( pages ) , he has impressed me , we need catching but I'm not sure ( rushing ) is the answer but I guess we could gamble that he sticks at catcher , some lnow more if he will , I hear all kinds of reports , okay there are our 2 top players to trade for , I want at least another healthy prospect to complete the trade ... We are trading a strength ( valuable pitching ) with team control to fill a need ( offense and catcher ) with team control , plus anything else we can pry away .. I think alot of people would be happy with this trade and I believe if the front office trades 1 or the other it is going to be Jax because he is 3 years older than Duran ... I like Jax, but I'd do this trade ...
  3. The front office is not creative enough to be creative and there wait a see approach is worthless , we have waited and see mediocre baseball .... Lack of grooming the young talent to another level of talent at the ML level , coaching fundamentals is non-existent on this professional team ... What's to blame and where to point fingers , starts at the top and goes all the way down to the players , they can't find success because they seem to not know what success is ( adjustments is one , usually takes the offense 1 time through the order to get there first hit in the 4th inning ).... Twins Players play lousy defense and offense , pitching has been the strength ... I could go on , but you know the rest of the story of this unexciting team ...
  4. Sell and get what we need , if we trade one of Jax or Duran , we better be trading for high quality players that can fill a ML position of need right away ... The free agents to be trades will probably amount to fringe players to audition ...
  5. If I was a smart fan I would of checked out along time ago , but I just have a passion for baseball , win or lose ... Besides I love laughing and boy do I laugh when the front office or Rocco pull some great shenanigans .... It was a deflating loss , I was clinging on for a win but it was an expected loss as the twins rarely win 1 run games , they gave it there all but there all just wasn't good enough , bullpen could have been over used over the series , some shabby defense , lots of walks ( both sides ) , pick your poison ... HEY , it's okay if your poison is the manager too , you know by now I just can never resist a jab at our unorthodox manager ...
  6. Really , I did not know that , I thought he came along later in the sixties on a trade and was only around for 5 seasons ... Peter you OK , twins lose ...
  7. I don't think so , perry wasn't added till late sixties ... I better look it up ...
  8. Man was that stressful , game on thecline and Rocco sticks with Stewart ... Peter you okay ???
  9. Anyone with a pulse , but if you want to win with a day off tomorrow , I guess Stewart , Jax or Duran is needed , no matter the outcome ...
  10. Topa probably in for 8th , but he used varland 3 days in arow so who knows , Jax and Duran could come in , off day tomorrow ..
  11. Make up your mind , always go with you first decision ... Rocco never has a decision ...
  12. It is what it is , you can rip on management 24 / 7 - 365 days a year , yes Vazquez is getting older but he will get another job next year , so others do think he has value ... Jeffers just had a passed ball probably called a wild pitch today , Vazquez would have smothered it ...
  13. Mike your always blasting Vazquez , yes he doesn't hit much in his 3 years here , maybe you'll get your wish and he is gone at deadline ... I'm not sure what games you are watching but Vazquez does bring value to the games as a smart solid catcher , if your picking on hitters pick on them all , can't get anyone one base before a homerun , can't get any clutch hits when we get someone on base ... The entire lineup is a train wreck , some on defense and offense , some just on offense ...
  14. It is amazing how good paddack is looking today , because it was amazing how bad he looked in June up till today ... Tip your hat to him ....
  15. I hope you had you fingers and toes crossed when you printed that ...
  16. Yep , alot of ball parks are very nice , I prefer ball parks with some character, dodgers stadium and Anaheim have old charm character , red Sox and cubbies have ancient interesting character ... It's fun to be a baseball fan ...
  17. To bad Rocco woke up alittle sore , I wish he would wake up in another country 😂 ...
  18. Been listening on radio , just tuning in on TV ... Looks like we have a game , royce heating up ... My only question is , why can't we get runners on base and then hit a homerun ... Everyone likes homerun but everyone likes game changing homeruns ... Hope paddack has a good game and keeps us in it ...
  19. Luke KeaschallWalker JenkinsKaelen CulpepperEmmanuel RodriguezConnor PrielippDasan HillCharlee SotoBrandon WinokurKyle DeBargeGabriel GonzalezMarco RayaAndrew MorrisMarek HoustonRiley QuickCJ CulpepperBilly AmickKhadim DiawQuentin YoungEduardo BeltreRicardo Olivar Keaschall number one prospect because he's advanced to MLB and had a good cup of coffee and excited twins fans with solid play , sparked some life into the lineup that ended with a 13 game winning streak , broke his arm unfortunately by a hit by pitch ... Jenkins I moved down to the 2 slot because of the injuries he's had each season ... Culpepper in 3 slot as he is showing signs like keaschall , moving through the system rapidly by putting up decent numbers and defense .... The rest I moved around , some up , some down , another I moved up was Debarge because of his speed , still not sold on Gonzales but we'll see ... The new class of draftees , welcome to the list ...
