  1. Gallo defense: Wallner's defense: Wallner will never be as good as Gallo.
  2. Sadly the Twins have become like the Viking, except they cannot bring a seasoned veteran to at least give them one good year.
  3. For Griffith Baseball was his life and Only income.
  4. Bert Blyleven did not pitch with this team behind him your analogy is poppycock. His being in the hall of fame has bollocks to do with Ryan giving up home runs. Bert gave up 90 home runs in his first five years, whereas, Ryan has give up 101 . LOL, Bert pitched 27 games in his first year; Ryan pitched 5 gaves in his first year and still gave up 11 more home runs in the same amount of time.
  5. Ryan is a Blyleven homer happy pitcher without the offense to back him up, Pablo is a much better bet.
  6. The ghost of Tavaris Jackson....
  7. It is amazing here when players annointed by opinion on TD, end up having a hard time even being average, it is ALWAYS some one elses fault. Natural born talent or a LACK of it , at Major League level, must be an imaginary thing.
  8. Texas league hits are what the Twins need a LOT more of.
  9. He reminds me of Bobby Douglas, bullet passes that are hard to catch. If he run as hard as Douglas did, just short of 1,000 yards in a 14 game season, he can make-up for his passing skills.
  10. Time for Wentz.
  11. What will be, will be. Paranoid pessimism is a fools folly.
  12. For the veteran Vikings followers, minus the won-loss record, this season reminds me of the 1971 season.
  13. Twins tradition. Bring in vet on last leg of career - replacing unqualified young players. Lack of talent leads to being "blocked" or - garbage in - garbage out.
  14. A gent with a .957 career fielding average, in AA, you want to play SS in the Majors, oh my!
  15. Yes you did.
  16. Blocking has become a monomania around here.
  17. Keaschal had a good bat for a short time, he is FAR from showing he is going to be a regular; his glove work is, not, major leage level, yet. Hope is he is not another Julien. All the bruhaha for rookies Jenkins, etc. is the same Pie-in-the-Sky fantasies the are numerous in this site. Yes Jenkins might be the next Bobby Witt Jr; or one of them might but I would take 1000 to 1 odds against that. Twins need a full time Short Stop as Lee is NOT good there; move him to Third and hope Lewis is not a beer fart at First IF he is lousy at First, find a proven Veteran to fill the whole again, with Clemens as a back-up. Wallner is a poor Right fielder and his bat is now failing him. Larnach is the better of the two; Martin hopefully he improves, even if he becomes another Rosario, whose bat made the bat happy people happy.
  18. IF that were Went today, the cry here for put McCarthy would be overwhelming, well, McCarthy is in same poo, differnt pile.
  19. Fortunately the Twins Org. people in charge do not seem to want to have two AAA teams next summer.
  20. France at First and Clemens at Second, that would make a good infield at First and Second. The Twins lack of run scoring need fielders to stop the game from becoming blow-out after blow-out.
  21. At that , the Twins had some of the best in the oughts, and did not even get to the World Series. One of the few times, I lay major blame on the manager.
  22. Not if you bet red or black, 0 or 00 . Is roulette 50% chance? It’s important to understand roulette wheel odds because roulette is not a 50% winning chance game. The odds of you winning an even-money (‘outside bet’) roulette game that pays out 1:1 is based on how many numbers on a roulette wheel there are. There’s a higher house edge on a double-zero roulette wheel (38 numbers) and a lower house edge on a single-zero roulette wheel (37 numbers). Put simply, if you win an even-money outside bet you’ll double your wager. But depending on the roulette wheel variant you play on; your chance of winning is based on the following probabilities: 48.65% chance of winning an outside bet on single-zero European roulette wheel games. 47.37% chance of winning an outside bet on double-zero American roulette wheel games.
  23. IF they have not developed by the time they are veterans in AAA, the chance of them developing period, is the same as hitting 0 or 00 on a Roulette table. It happens, but is rare, and not worth ruining a team to gamble. Since computer generated stats are so important to some baseball followers, here is a computer generated view of the young boys: AI Overview The failure rate for top 100 baseball prospects is about 30%, as roughly 70% make it to the major leagues. However, this varies significantly by position, with hitters having a higher success rate than pitchers. The definition of "failure" can also vary, with some analyses considering prospects who don't become All-Stars as failures, while others consider any player who doesn't make the majors a failure I would rather have a team with Farmer, Urshela and France, than one with Miranda, Gordon and Julien.
