    Sano related moves.

    That is a scary thought.
  2. There is value in winning any game at any time, period.
  3. Mr. Bean seems to believe analytics are the end all.
  4. Celestino needs work on hitting , Garlick does not, so odds are for Celestino.
  5. That has been a standard for the Twins all season, and last season also.
  6. RpR

    Sano related moves.

    Sano is not going anywhere except the batters box.
  7. It is a wonder how Schoop and Grossman last year did very well and this year, are struggling; do not say age as Cabrera is doing just the opposite this year.
  8. I can not watch the game but how come with three singles, no one scored on the third?
  9. Gordon, Kirilloff, Miranda, Larnach and ... Jake Cave.
  10. It could be worse, as I write this Boston is losing to Toronto 27-4.
  11. At no time were Sano's numbers at first as bad as Miranda's are now.
  12. Any one who is new, or WILL BE new, to pro-ball is a rookie; a prospect is a name on a business sheet of paper, a rookie is some who is/will be holding a bat for money. Kirilloff, Miranda, Celestino, Larnach are all still rookies.
  13. Send Kirilloff down: Kirilloff vs Left .158 -- Right .288 -- OPS .712 Garlick vs Left .313 -- Right .225 -- OPS .853 No one knows what Sano will do, so the Sky-is-Falling doom and gloom is a bit assymetrical.
  14. If you use defense as a parameter, then trade Miranda; I am not a big fan of Larnach but the way he was regularly hitting double before he was hurt, plus he can back-up Kepler in right, makes more sense than Miranda's Little League fielding skills. Sano's numbers af first are a goodly number better than Miranda.
  15. It has been a couple weeks since the Mendoza line was where the rookies were at, let's see how this goes after two more weeks. Wishful thinking about new rookies is just that, wishful thinking.
  16. Earl Battey , Camilo Pascual, Bob Allison.
  17. I read an article yesterday in Speed Sport that NASCAR are working on getting back to LeMans, they want to make the impact that they did when in 1978 they sent two cars (a Ford and a Dodge); a joke as the car now represents nothing . One of the drivers that went back then, said they were swamped with fans at the track, but those were cars that at least resembled a production car.
  18. I did not know Cabrera and Pujols were in the game; I could not watch it.
  19. They look like blue jeans and T-shirt.?
  20. The Twins will do what the owner and front office thinks fits best, not worth all the blather worrying.
  21. IF, if the Twins want to trade some rookies that have good bat, at this point, then Kirilloff and Miranda are teh two that , maybe, could bring some value. Gordon is too much like Willie Mays Hays early in the movie too often so he has no big value, we need Celestino in center. Jeffers , regardless of two weeks of better at bats, isn't valuable.
  22. Gaetti's numbers were never bad, and Koskie has one bad number, -1, his first year and one bad year after that, dream on. I am not a big fan of Larnach's weak arm but he is a far, far better fielder than Miranda, trade Miranda. Some people blither here about letting Garlic g,o and his (the wonderful world of analytics) OPS is better than the other three rookies; his best position is Left Field and that is where some one is needed. Larnach has good numbers in right field where he can back-up Kepler.
  23. Miranda's fielding is abysmal, dump him.
